Is the firmware on escort 9500ix old on website?

[jungly]

it says its version 1.1 on download website, but when i try to upload it to my 9500ix it prompts saying v1.1 is older than the version you currently have installed. Are the ones made from fall 2009 v1.2 or something, the tools doesnt tell me what version i currently have on 9500ix.

There is a newer 9500ix firmware that is already installed on new 9500ixs, but has not yet been released as an update. It sounds like your 9500ix has the newer firmware, so do not update it.

I agree with djrams80 .. As of a week or so ago the firmware on the download page was ... 9500ix_update_v1_1 ... that is the old version.

I also tried to update my ix when I registered it, and the program would not let me download the older version.

You're up-to-date.

According to what I understand the reason that they newer software is not on the site is it requires a tech at the bench to load the FW on certain hardware. If you have a problem then send it in to fix that problem. My problem was invisible cameras and they found and issue with the

There was a commitment to have newer software on the ESCORT site but that did not materialize. I was offered wt wait until they got the software site "in a week or so" or send it in have ESCORT do the upgrade.

I am glad I chose to have ESCORT do the upgrade as I would still be waiting. (It was well worth the effort though)


And waiting...

I think the biggest issue with ESCORT is consistent communications.

LARRY the ESCORT REP is the man though. Go to the ESCORTRADAR SITE and communicate with the "ESCORTRADAR" for Larry when you have an situation that need special attention.
