Power
The 8500ci Plus was designed to turn on
and off with the ignition once it is installed.
This is accomplished by connecting the 12-
volt interface to a switched ACC
connection at the fuse panel. (See
Installation Manual for instructions.)
If you prefer, you may also turn the
8500ci Plus on and off by pressing the
power button located on the display
controller.
AutoPower
This feature automatically turns the 8500ci
Plus off if your vehicle has not moved for
three hours. This is especially useful if your
vehicle has a hot 12-volt accessory
(constant power without the key on). See
the Preferences section for details.
Power-on indication
After PASSPORT’s start-up sequence is
complete, the matrix display will show
“Highway”, “Auto” or “Auto NoX” to show
which sensitivity mode has been selected.
If you prefer, you can select alternate
power-on displays. See the Preferences
section for details
Display Brightness
The 8500ci Plus’s display brightness is
automatically adjusted to suit ambient
lighting conditions in your car. (The light
sensor is located inside the display
controller and may dim the display
momentarily while you are accessing the
buttons). (Maximum, Medium, Minimum, or
Dark).
Dark Mode
If you select Dark mode on the 8500ci Plus,
the display will not provide any indication
that it is on.
NOTE: When the 8500ci Plus is in
Dark mode, the display will not show
visual alerts when it detects signals.
Only the audible alert will notify you
of detected signals.
Radar Sensitivity
The SEN button allows you to select the
8500ci Plus’s radar sensitivity: Highway,
Auto, or Auto NoX. In general, ESCORT
recommends Auto for everyday driving.
Highway
In this setting, the 8500ci Plus will detect
all radar signals on all bands at maximum
range.
Auto
In this setting, the 8500ci Plus will
automatically adjust its radar sensitivity
based on the speed of your vehicle. At
slower speeds (<25 mph), X- and K-band
sensitivity is reduced to minimize alerts
caused by automatic door openers, etc. At
higher speeds (>45 mph), X- and K-band
sensitivity is increased to maximum.
Auto NoX
Auto NoX works the same as Auto mode;
however, X band is completely turned off.
WARNING: Do not use the 8500ci
Plus in Auto NoX unless you are
absolutely certain that there are no
traffic radar guns using X band in
your area.
Cruise Alert
The Cruise Alert feature allows you to
minimize audio alerts received while
traveling within a selected speed. To set the
warning speed, simply press the CRU
button. The display will read “Cruise 30.” To
change, simply hold the CRU button down
to scroll through your choices. The range is
30–95 mph, in 5 mph increments. Once
you reach your desired setting, simply
release the button. To turn the Cruise Alert
feature off, simply select “Cru-off” using the
same process.
Volume Adjust/Mute
To adjust the 8500ci Plus to your preferred
audio level for alerts, simply press and hold
the VOL•MUTE button. The audio will
increase/decrease while it is depressed.
Once you reach the desired audio level,
simply release the button. The 8500ci Plus
will retain this setting in its memory, even if
the system is turned off.
The VOL•MUTE button can also be
used for:
• Muting the audio during a single
alert. Press the VOL•MUTE button during
the alert. After the radar encounter has
passed, the mute will disengage, and the
audio will return to your preset level.
• Locking out false alarms. See TrueLock
feature for details page 9.
AutoMute
Your 8500ci Plus includes ESCORT’s
patented AutoMute feature. After the 8500ci
Plus alerts you to a radar encounter at your
selected volume level, it automatically
reduces the volume more than 50%. This
keeps you informed without the annoyance
of a continuous full-volume alert.
If you prefer, you can turn the
AutoMute feature off. See the Preferences
section for details pages 12-13.
Controls and Features
Mark Location
The Mark Location feature allows you to
mark any location for future reference.
Once marked, the 8500ci Plus will provide
an alert, accompanied by the label you
assigned to it, on the display.
There are four different labels you can
use when marking a location: speed trap
(SPDTRAP), speed camera (SPDCAM), red-
light camera (REDLGHT), and other
(OTHER).
To mark a location, simply press the
MRK button. The display will show,
“MARK?” accompanied by a voice message.
Press the MRK button again, and the labels
appear, starting with “SPDTRAP.” If this is
not the label you want to use, simply press
the VOL•MUTE button to scroll through
the other options.
Once you reach the label you want,
simply press the MRK button once more to
confirm. The word “MARKED” will appear
on the display, accompanied by a voice
prompt confirming you have marked and
labeled this location. Once marked, the
8500ci Plus will provide an alert as you
approach this location the next time.
NOTE: When a location is marked
the first time, you must travel at least
1 mile away from that location to
receive an alert.
The warning distance for each label is:
• Red light camers: 250 ft. or 10 seconds
• Speed cameras: 500 ft. when traveling
below 55 mph; 1,000 ft. when traveling
above 55 mph
• Speed traps: 0.3 mi. or approximately
1,584 ft.
• Other: 500 ft. when traveling below 55
mph; 1,000 ft. when traveling above 55 mph
NOTE: GPS Filter must be “ON” in
Preferences for the Mark Location
feature to work.
TrueLock
To lock out a known false alarm (X band, K
band, or laser), simply press the VOL•MUTE
button three times during the false alert.
NOTE: It is important to visually
look around to make certain no traffic
radar is present before locking out a
signal.
The first time you press the
VOL•MUTE button, the audio will mute.
The second time, the display will show
“Lockout?” accompanied by a voice prompt
asking if you want to lockout this signal.
The third time you press the VOL•MUTE
button, the location and frequency of that
signal is stored in the 8500ci Plus’s memory.
The display will show “Stored” to
acknowledge the information has been
captured.
The next time you drive past the area
and the signal is detected, the GPS icon will
rotate clockwise, providing a visual
indication of the rejected signal. The
detector will not provide an audible alert.
Over-Speed Alert
The Over-Speed Alert feature can provide
voice alerts that you are traveling over a
specified speed (selectable options range
from 30–95 mph; 70 mph is factory
default). Once the specified speed is
reached, you will receive an audible alert
and a warning message on the display.
GPS Indicator
The GPS icon is visible on the right side of
the 8500ci Plus display and indicates
whether it is receiving GPS signals. At start-
up, this icon will flash on and off until GPS
data is received. Once the signals are
received, the GPS icon will stop flashing
and remain on the display. The GPS icon
will rotate when a false alert is being
rejected.
Safety Camera Database
Your 8500ci Plus comes pre-loaded with
ESCORT’s DEFENDER Database, which
stores thousands of red-light and fixed-
position speed cameras and speed traps
throughout North America. The factory
setting is for all markers in the database to
be reported as you approach them. It is
recommended that you use the 8500ci Plus
in this mode. To modify which markers are
reported, see “Markers” in the Preferences
section.
Controls and Features
8 9
To unlock a signal, press and hold the
VOL•MUTE button while the icon is
rotating. An “Unlock” message will be
displayed. Press again to confirm and
unlock that signal.
Clearing the Database
At some point, you may want to clear all of
the data in the 8500ci Plus’s database. This
includes all markers and camera locations.
In order to do this, simply press and hold
the MRK, VOL•MUTE, and SEN buttons
while powering the detector on. An “Erase?”
message will appear on the screen. Press
the CRU button to confirm.
Audible Alerts
For Radar signals:
The 8500ci Plus uses a Geiger counter-
type sound to indicate the signal strength
and type of radar signal being encountered.
When you encounter radar, a distinct
audible alert will sound and will increase as
the signal gets stronger. This allows you to
judge the distance from the signal source
without taking your eyes off of the road.
Each band has a distinct tone for easy
identification:
X-band = beep tone
K-band = brap tone
Ka-band = double-brap tone
For Laser signals:
Since laser signals are a possible threat
no matter how weak, the 8500ci Plus alerts
you to all laser signals with a full laser alert.
Controls and Features
10 11
For POP signals:
Since POP signals are extremely fast K
or Ka bursts and a possible threat no matter
how weak, the 8500ci Plus alerts you to
these bands at full signal strength.
For Safety signals:
If you have turned on SWS detection
within your Preferences for bands, the
8500ci Plus will alert you to these signals
with a double-beep tone and a
corresponding text message. A complete
listing of the text messages is on page 25.
For Marked Locations:
The 8500ci Plus will alert you to
marked locations with a double-beep tone
and a corresponding text message. A
complete list of marked location labels are
on page 8.
Voice Alerts
The 8500ci Plus provides digital voice
announcements for alerts and selection
feedback. If you prefer, you can turn off the
voice feature in Preferences. See the
Preferences section for details.
Speed Alert
8500ci Plus’s Speed Alert feature provides
a visual indication of your vehicle speed
during the first few seconds of an alert.
This allows you to instantly check your
speed without looking at your
speedometer. Speed Alert is displayed
regardless of your meter setting.
NOTE: When traveling 15 mph or
less, your speed will not be displayed.
If you prefer, you can turn the Speed
Alert feature off. See Preferences for
details.
Signal Strength Meter
The 8500ci Plus’s matrix display consists of
280 individual LEDs to provide an intuitive
ultra-bright display of signal strength and
text messages. When it detects radar, it
displays the band of the radar (X, K, or Ka)
and a precise bar graph of the signal’s
strength.
ExpertMeter
ESCORT’s exclusive ExpertMeter option is
an advanced display for experienced
detector users. Please use the 8500ci Plus
for a few weeks to get fully familiar with its
other features before using ExpertMeter.
To use the ExpertMeter instead of the
standard bar graph meter, you must select
MeterExp in the 8500ci Plus’s Preferences.
Page 13.
ExpertMeter simultaneously tracks up
to eight radar signals: two Ka-band, two K-
band, and four X-band signals. The
ExpertMeter is actually a miniature
spectrum analyzer. It shows what band
each signal is, its relative frequency within
the band, and its signal strength.
ExpertMeter can help you spot a change in
your normal driving environment; for
example, a traffic radar unit being operated
in an area where there are normally other
signals present.
KA|| K|| X||||
Above is the ExpertMeter display if the
8500ci Plus was detecting two strong Ka-
band, two strong K-band and 4 strong X-
band signals.
As you can see, there are vertical lines
after each band designator. Each line shows
a signal being detected. The height of each
line shows the relative signal strength. The
position of the line shows the relative
frequency of the signal within the band.
The band designators (X, K, Ka) will
stay on the display for a few seconds after
the signal has passed. This allows you to see
what the unit detected, even on very brief
signals. However, the vertical lines
representing individual signals constantly
change (several times a second) to give you
a continuous view of the signal strength of
all radar signals present.
A few more examples will help you
better see how the ExpertMeter works.
K
| X
||
'
Here ExpertMeter shows 1 strong K-band
signal, and three X-band signals, two
strong and one weak.
KA

'''
Here ExpertMeter shows 1 weak Ka-band
signal and three weak X-band signals.
X
On very weak signals, there will not be a
vertical line at all. This shows a very weak
X-band signal.
NOTE: If you use ExpertMeter, the
brief signal shown in the power-on
sequence when you turn on your
8500ci Plus will also be in
ExpertMeter: an “X” with a single
vertical line.
SpecDisplay
The 8500ci Plus’s SpecDisplay option is
also designed for the advanced detector
user. In this mode, it will display the actual
numeric radar frequency being received
K 24.150
Display shows a K-band signal at 24.150
GhZ.
Ka 34.700
Display shows a Ka-band signal at 34.700
GhZ.
X 10.525
Display shows a X-band signal at 10.525
GhZ.
NOTE: Even long-time detector
users will require a significant
amount of time to get familiar with
this new level of information.
The 8500ci Plus offers 12 user-selectable
options so you can customize it to your
preferences. Pages 14-16 explain each
option in more detail.

Details of Preferences
Explanation
A patrol car is traveling in front of you with a radar
source aimed forward. Because signals are
sometimes reflected off of large objects and
sometimes not, the alerts may seem inconsistent.
A patrol car is approaching from the other
direction, “sampling” traffic with instant-on radar.
Such alerts should be taken seriously.
You are driving through an area populated with
radar motion sensors (door openers, burglar alarms,
etc.). Since these transmitters are usually contained
inside buildings or aimed toward OR away from
you, they are typically not as strong or lasting as a
real radar encounter.
CAUTION: Since the characteristics of these
alerts may be similar to some of the preceding
examples, over confidence in an unfamiliar area
can be dangerous. Likewise, if an alert in a
commonly traveled area is suddenly stronger or
on a different band than usual, speed radar may
be set up nearby.
Alert
PASSPORT alerts intermittently. Rate and strength of
alerts may be consistent or vary wildly.
PASSPORT alerts intermittently. Rate and strength of
signal increases with each alert.
PASSPORT gives an X-band alert intermittently.
18 19
Although PASSPORT has a comprehensive
warning system and this handbook is as
complete as we can make it, only
experience will teach you what to expect
from your PASSPORT and how to interpret
what it “tells” you. The radar alerts you
receive are affected by the specific type of
radar being used, the type of transmission
(continuous or instant-on) and the location
of the radar source.
The following examples will give you
an introduction to understanding
PASSPORT’s warning system for radar, laser
and safety alerts.
Explanation
You are approaching a continuous radar
source aimed in your direction.
An instant-on radar source is being used
ahead of you and out of your view.
An instant-on radar source or laser source is
being used nearby. This kind of alert requires
immediate attention!
Laser is being used in the area. Because laser is
inherently difficult to detect, any laser alert
may indicate a source very close by.
A moving patrol car with continuous radar is
overtaking you from behind. Because these
signals are reflected (reflections are increased
by large objects), they may or may not
eventually melt into a solid point even when
the patrol car is directly behind you.
You are approaching a radar unit concealed
by a hill or an obstructed curve.
Alert
PASSPORT begins to sound slowly, then the
rate of alert increases until the alert becomes a
solid tone. The Signal Meter ramps accordingly.
PASSPORT emits short alerts for a few
seconds and then falls silent only to briefly
alert and fall silent again.
PASSPORT suddenly sounds a continuous
tone for the appropriate band received. All
segments in the Signal Strength Meter are lit.
A brief laser alert.
PASSPORT receives weak signals. These
signals may be a little stronger as you pass
large, roadside objects. The signals increase in
frequency.
PASSPORT alerts slowly for awhile and then
abruptly jumps to a strong alert.
Interpreting Alerts
20 21
How Laser (Lidar) Works
Laser speed detection is actually light
detection and ranging (LIDAR). LIDAR guns
project a beam of invisible infrared light.
The signal is a series of very short infrared-
light energy pulses that move in a straight
line, reflecting off your car and returning to
the gun. LIDAR uses these light pulses to
measure the distance to a vehicle. Speed is
then calculated by measuring how quickly
these pulses are reflected, given the known
speed of light.
LIDAR is a newer technology whose
use is not as widespread as conventional
radar; therefore, you may not encounter it
on a daily basis. And unlike radar detection,
LIDAR is not prone to false alarms. Because
LIDAR transmits a much narrower beam
than does radar, it is much more accurate in
its ability to distinguish between targets
and is also more difficult to detect.
As a result, even the briefest laser
(LIDAR) alert should be taken
seriously.
There are limitations to LIDAR
equipment. LIDAR is much more sensitive
to weather conditions than radar, and a
LIDAR gun’s range will be decreased by
anything affecting visibility, such as rain, fog,
or smoke. A LIDAR gun cannot operate
through glass, and it must be stationary in
order to get an accurate reading. Because
LIDAR must have a clear line of sight and is
subject to cosine error (an inaccuracy that
increases as the angle between the gun and
the vehicle increases), police typically use
LIDAR equipment parallel to the road or
from an overpass. LIDAR can be used day or
night.
Laser
How Radar Works
Traffic radar, which consists of microwaves,
travels in straight lines and is easily
reflected by objects such as cars, trucks,
and even guardrails and overpasses. Radar
works by directing its microwave beam
down the road. As your vehicle travels into
range, the microwave beam bounces off
your car, and the radar antenna looks for
the reflections.
Using the Doppler Principle, the radar
equipment then calculates your speed by
comparing the frequency of the reflection
of your car to the original frequency of the
beam sent out.
Traffic radar has limitations, the most
significant of these being that it typically
can monitor only one target at a time. If
there is more than one vehicle within
range, it is up to the radar operator to
decide which target is producing the
strongest reflection. Since the strength of
the reflection is affected by both the size of
the vehicle and its proximity to the
antenna, it is difficult for the radar operator
to determine if the signal is from a sports
car nearby or a semi truck several hundred
feet away.
Radar range also depends on the
power of the radar equipment itself. The
strength of the radar unit's beam
diminishes with distance. The farther the
radar has to travel, the less energy it has for
speed detection.
Because intrusion alarms and motion
sensors often operate on the same
frequency as X-Band radar, your detector
will occasionally receive non-police radar
signals. Since these X-Band transmitters are
usually contained inside of a building, or
aimed toward the ground, they will
generally produce much weaker readings
than will a true radar encounter. As you
become familiar with the sources of these
pseudo alarms in your daily driving, they
will serve as confirmation that your
8500ci Plus’s radar detection abilities are
fully operational.
How “POP” Works
POP mode is a relatively new feature for
radar gun manufacturers. It works by
transmitting an extremely short burst,
within the allocated band, to identify
speeding vehicles in traffic. Once the target
is identified, or “POPPED,” the gun is then
turned to its normal operating mode to
provide a vehicle tracking history, (required
by law).
NOTE: According to the operator’s
manual from the radar gun
manufacturer, tickets should not be
issued in POP mode.
Radar Radar/POP

GPS/TrueLock TSR Red Light Cameras Speed Cameras
How TSR Works
The 8500ci Plus includes a new boost in
anti-falsing software to eliminate
excessive alerts from erroneous X- and K-
band sources. One example is traffic-flow
monitoring systems.
These systems, which are becoming
more widely used in cities across the U.S.,
generate K-band signals to measure the
flow of traffic on a given road.
Unfortunately, most detectors see this as a
real threat and will alert you to it
unnecessarily. Our new proprietary
Threat-Signal Ranking (TSR) software
intelligently sorts, ranks, and rejects these
types of false alarms automatically. The
result is ultimate protection without
excessive false alarms.
Since not all markets have this type of
traffic-flow monitoring system, your
detector has been pre-set with TSR turned
off. For details on how to activate TSR, see
the Preferences section.
These sensors
are fully self-
contained and
roadside-
mounted.
How GPS Works
The global positioning system (GPS) is
made up of 24 orbiting satellites and was
developed by the U.S. military. There are
at least four satellites visible at any given
time every day.
A GPS receiver is designed to locate
and receive data from four of these
satellites. These data include the distance
to your location from each of the satellites.
Once the distance from each satellite is
known, the receiver can calculate and
pinpoint your exact location.
How TrueLock Works
TrueLock uses the exact position and
actual frequency of a signal to eliminate it
as a false alarm. Once a signal is locked out,
a box is created around that location
(approximately ½ mile radius) to lock it
out from all directions. Automatic door
openers use more than one source, so
TrueLock will automatically lock out other
X- and K-band sources in close proximity.
How Red Light Cameras Work
Red-light cameras use three basic things: a
camera, a device to trigger the camera,
and a computer.
An intersection may have more than
one camera to monitor traffic from
multiple directions. The trigger is typically
a series of wires buried just beneath the
surface of the road. These wires are
separated by a pre-set distance to create a
magnetic field or induction loop. Once a
vehicle is in the intersection, the loop or
circuit becomes closed and alerts the
computer to take a picture.
In some states, tickets are issued to
the car’s owner, no matter who is actually
driving. In this case, the red-light camera
only needs to photograph the vehicle’s
rear license plate. In other states, the
actual driver is responsible for paying the
ticket. In this case, the system needs a
second camera in front of the car to get a
shot of the driver’s face.
How Speed Cameras Work
There are several types of fixed-position
speed cameras used, including radar, laser,
induction-loop, and photo-based.
Radar-and laser-based cameras are
typically mounted near the road and
transmit a short-range signal across the
lanes monitored. Since this signal is
transmitted across the road instead of
down the road like with many handheld
systems, detecting them in time is critical.
Another technology used is an
induction-loop system. This type of
system utilizes wires buried just beneath
the surface of the road to trigger a
computer that calculates speed between
the two points.
Photo-based systems take two sets of
pictures of all passing vehicles between
two separate fixed locations. Both sets of
photographs are date and time stamped,
which enables the system to calculate
average speed between the two locations.
Fixed-speed cameras can also be set
up to monitor one to four lanes of traffic in
the same direction. To achieve this, a
sensor is installed in each lane, and a wide-
angle camera lens is used to photograph
the vehicle that is speeding.

4 Follow the instructions online.
How SWS Works
There are two separate safety radar
systems in limited use today: Safety Alert
and Safety Warning System (SWS). Both
systems use modified K-band radar signals.
From the factory, your 8500ci Plus is
programmed with safety radar decoding
off. If safety radar is used in your area,
your 8500ci Plus will display these signals
as K-band radar signals instead of safety
radar, unless you use the Preferences to
turn safety radar decoding ON.
The Safety Alert safety radar system has
three possible alerts:
• Safety Vehicle
• Road Hazard
• Train Nearby
The SWS safety radar system has 64
possible messages. The SWS messages
your 8500ci Plus can display are listed on
the facing page.
NOTE: Some of the safety messages
have been condensed so they can fit
on the 8500ci Plus’s display.
Since safety radar technology is
relatively new and the number of
transmitters in operation is not yet
widespread, you will not receive safety
signals on a daily basis and should not be
surprised to encounter emergency
vehicles, road hazards, and railroad
crossings that are unequipped with these
transmitters and, therefore, fail to provide
a signal. As safety transmitters become
more prevalent (the number of operating
transmitters is growing every day), these
safety radar signals will become more
common.
