Default 9500I ramp up problem

The problem with the 9500I’s audible ramp up there was beginning alert to full alert no mid range. Normal detectors would alert strength wise like:

1-1-1-2-2-2-3-3-3-4-4-4-5-5-5-6-6-6-7-7-7-8-8-8 (all the way to full alert)

9500's ramp up problem was like:

1-1-1-2-2-2-8-8-8 (jumps to full alert from a weak strength)

There now is a flash available with new software to fix ramp up. If yours has the ramp up problem you can call and request the ramp up flash/update. You will need to send it in to Escort but you should get it back in a week or two. I believe new 9500I’s built after November will have the ramp up fix incorporated in them.

Personally I like the ramp up (quieter) so I won’t be updating mine, but I will be getting a new Blue 9500I next month.

I believe the STI has the same problem, I hope Belscort trickles down the 9500I fix to the STI.
