New Escort RD Updates

[djrams80]

I installed the new RLC database on both my 9500ci and my 9500ix today. I also installed firmware updates for both, Version 1.1 for the 9500ix and Version 1.2 for the 9500ci. Hopefully the 9500ci update has a Ka band rampup fix for us.

Please report back on the 9500Ci update. I did the update for the 9500ix but I'll have to wait and see about testing it tomorrow. I know the RLC glitch (failing to save RLC toggle, Speed Camera toggle, Speedtrap toggle, Other toggle) is now fixed...

Only thing I've noticed since installing the update is that the AutoMute feature is now actually a viable feature. Prior to the update, mine would be inaudible at speed despite the volume being maxed out.

Wait so 1.2 is the October update? I was thinking that was still Septembers...

Thanks for posting DJ, but a question...I updated my firmware successfully and then went to update the database and my pc froze up half way thru the db update forcing me to do a hard reset. I then came back, reset my RD back to factory defaults for safe measure and tried to update the firmware again and got an "invalid update file!" error, so it would appear you cannot update twice with the same file?

Update: I dual boot with Vista64/XP SP3 and the above occurred in Vista 64 so I went to XP SP3 where I have D-Tools installed also and everything went just fine there, re updating the firmware and RLC DB. I must've had some corruption therefore in Vista from when I froze so I uninstalled the D-Tools and reinstalled and now all is fine there as well.

Also of note, RLC database now saves checked/unchecked when powered off and back on.

Thanks for the heads up DJ! Just got home from the office and find this. I'll give it a try in the morning before I head out.

Just a quick question. For the RCL database, do I have to put in the email and code again to download it or does it do it automatically when I connect and hit merge on the RCL icon?

You need to put the key code in to download the updated database first.

Thanks. Got it figured out and updated the software and RCL database. I love this RD!!
