Radar Sensitivity; Truelock/Locking Out False Alerts; Marking Locations - Escort Passportmax Owner's Manual

Radar Sensitivity

The SEN button allows you to select your preferred
radar sensitivity: Highway, Auto or Auto No X. In
general, ESCORT recommends Auto for everyday
driving.
Highway
In this setting, PASSPORT Max will detect all radar
signals on all bands at maximum range.
Auto
In this setting, PASSPORT Max 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.
WARNING: Do not use PASSPORT Max 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

PASSPORT Max 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 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, PASSPORT Max 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
MUTE button while receiving the locked out alert.
The display will read "Unlock?" Press the detector or
SmartCord 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 PASSPORT Max'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 PASSPORT Max 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, PASSPORT Max 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, PASSPORT Max will unlock
that signal.

Marking Locations

The MRK button allows you to mark a specific location
and label it for future reference. Once marked,
PASSPORT Max will provide an alert when you reach
this area again.
