Escort Passport 9500i Radar Detector with GPS Locator The latest invention, the all-new PASSPORT 9500i, has revolutionized the radar detector category again. Its blistering performance is derived from the "World's Best" PASSPORT 8500 X50, which means it delivers the best protection possible against all speed measuring devices. We added advanced GPS-powered intelligence, which makes the PASSPORT 9500i the best performing, quietest and most user-friendly radar detector ever designed. Awarded Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award in recognition of outstanding achievement in new product design and innovation, the PASSPORT 9500i is the biggest breakthrough in radar and laser protection since the original ESCORT was launched in 1978. The PASSPORT 9500i redefines what a radar detector should do. X, K, Ku and superwide Ka radar detection is provided. Ku is used in Belgium, Taiwan, some Eastern European countries; and may be introduced into the USA in 2008. Nothing Else Like It The PASSPORT 9500i sets a new standard for radar and laser protection. It provides a perfect balance of longrange performance, intelligent processing of alerts and user information, and the elimination of the number one complaint - false alarms. No other detector offers this level of intelligence or protection. Variable Speed Sensitivity provides real-time radar protection based on vehicle speed. The PASSPORT 9500i can automatically vary its sensitivity based on the speed of your vehicle. At interstate speeds, all radar bands are operating at full sensitivity, providing the best possible performance. At really slow speeds, such as parking lots and stop lights, the 9500i sensitivity automatically adjusts to almost zero. No more irritating alerts when you are going below the posted speed. The result is real-time on-demand radar protection. Variable Speed Sensitivity provides real-time radar protection based on vehicle speed. The PASSPORT 9500i provides all the information you need to make an intelligent decision during each and every alert. The radar or laser band, signal strength, and now your vehicle speed are displayed during an alert to help you make the best possible decision. when you are going below the posted speed. The result is real-time on-demand radar protection. Crystal-Clear Voice Alerts the PASSPORT 9500i provides users with a real voice alert option. The PASSPORT 9500i uses a Geiger-counter-like sound to indicate the signal strength and unique audible tones to identify each alert by band. Or, choose the PASSPORT 9500i's new Voice Alert option for crystal clear communication of alerts and user controls.

TrueLock Signal Rejection permanently eliminates false alerts by location and frequency. The PASSPORT 9500i puts an end to false alarms. The new GPS-powered TrueLock feature allows you to simply press the mute button a couple of times and never hear a radar-based automatic door opener or motion sensor again. Our patented design captures the location coordinates and the exact frequency of the signal and stores them in memory. Once stored, TrueLock will reject these signals, but is intelligent enough to warn you of a new or different signal in that same location. That's right, no more false alarms! It remembers the frequency at that location, and if you encounter the false noise again, the 9500i remembers and will not alert. If it is a different frequency, the 9500i will alert you. Passport does not add bells and whistles; they add true performance and useful technology that makes a better product for you; and done with great passion and precision. They do it like no other company in the industry. An Inside Look at the PASSPORT 9500i - A Speed and Location Intelligent Detector
Mark Location The 9500i Stores speed traps and other locations in memory. Speed traps and camera locations are everywhere. It's a stretch of highway where they always sit, or it's a back road that quickly changes from 45 mph to 25 mph within a few hundred feet. You don't always remember, but now your PASSPORT 9500i will. The PASSPORT 9500i's "Mark Location" feature allows you to quickly store a specific location in memory. Simply tap the "Mark" button a couple of times and the 9500i will store this location in memory. The next time you approach this area, the PASSPORT 9500i will provide an alert well in advanced to remind you of the potential danger. This specific location reminder could keep you from being ambushed by instant-on radar or laser the next time you approach. AutoVolume automatically adjusts the alert volume based on ambient noise. The PASSPORT 9500i will adjust the alert volume level based on the ambient noise in the vehicle. Using a miniature microphone, the 9500i monitors ambient noise and will increase the volume level automatically to ensure you take notice even with loud music, passenger conversations or excessive wind noise. Now each alert will be heard so you can react if needed. At the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show, the PASSPORT 9500i was awarded the Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award in recognition of outstanding achievement in new product design and innovation. Recognized for its GPSpowered speed and location intelligence, the PASSPORT 9500i is the biggest breakthrough in radar and laser protection since 1978!
