Settings & Preferences
Highway
In this setting, ESCORT iX will detect all radar signals
on all bands at maximum range.
Auto
In this setting, ESCORT iX will continuously analyze all
incoming signals and intelligently adjust the
sensitivity circuits, providing long-range warning with
minimal false alarms.
Auto No X
Auto No X works the same as Auto mode; however, X
band is completely turned off.
Auto Lo K
Auto Lo K works the same as Auto mode; however K
band sensitivity is lowered.
WARNING: Do not use ESCORT iX in Auto No X unless you
are absolutely certain that there are no traffic radar guns
using X band in your area.
TrueLock/Locking Out False Alerts
ESCORT iX is equipped with a TrueLock GPS Filter to
lock out and store in its memory false alerts. To lock
out a false alert (X band, K band or laser only), press
the MUTE button on the detector or the SmartCord
USB three times during an alert. Pressing the first time
will silence the audio. Pressing a second time will
generate a prompt on the display that will read
"Lockout?" Press a third time to confirm you want to
lock this signal out by location and frequency. A
"Stored" message will be displayed. Once a signal has
been stored, ESCORT iX will reject the signal the next
time you approach this area and will display the
locked-out alert.
Locked-out alert
To unlock a signal that has already been stored,
simply press and hold the detector or SmartCord USB
MUTE button while receiving the locked out alert.
The display will read "Unlock?" Press the detector or
SmartCord USB MUTE button again to unlock it from
memory. The display will then read "Unlocked" to
confirm your action.
For details on how to turn the GPS Filter off, refer to
the Settings & Preferences section.
NOTE: When the GPS Filter is set to OFF, you do not have
access to ESCORT iX's other GPS-enabled features (e.g.,
Defender Database alerts, marking locations, etc.).
AutoLearn
The AutoLearn feature analyzes (over time) the source
of radar signals by location and frequency. This
allows ESCORT iX to determine if a signal is a real
threat or a false one. If it determines that the signal is
an automatic door opener, motion sensor, etc., it
automatically locks out this source at this particular
location. A "Stored" message will appear on the
display when a signal has been automatically locked
out. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoLearn feature
off. See the Settings & Preferences section
for details.
NOTE: AutoLearn typically needs to encounter the exact
frequency in the same location approximately three
times to lock it out. Since some door openers are turned
on and off routinely, some variations may occur. When
AutoLearn is on, ESCORT iX will also unlearn signals to
protect you from locking out real threats. If a particular
signal is no longer present at a location that was
previously locked out, ESCORT iX will unlock that signal.
Marking Locations
The MRK button allows you to mark a specific location
and label it for future reference. Once marked,
ESCORT iX will provide an alert when you reach this
area again.
