How to customize Passport with EZ-Programming
12
There are 9 user-selectable options so you
can customize your Passport 8500 for your
own preferences. The buttons labeled CITY
and DIM are also used to enter the Program
Mode, REVIEW your current program
settings, and to CHANGE any settings as
desired. The words PROGRAM, REVIEW,
and CHANGE are located on the top of the
detector, and are highlighted in dark blue
graphics. Pages 14-16 explain each option in
more detail.
How to use EZ-Programming
To enter Program Mode, press and hold
both top buttons down for 2 seconds.
(The unit will beep twice, and will display
the word “Program”).
Then press the REVIEW button to review
the current settings. (You can either tap
the button to change from item to item, or
hold the button to scroll through the items).
Press the CHANGE button to change
any setting. (You can either tap the button
to change from setting to setting, or hold
the button to scroll through all the options).
To leave the Program Mode, simply wait
8 seconds without pressing any button.
(The unit will display Complete, beep 4
times, and return to normal operation).

An example
For example, here is how you would turn
Passport’s AutoMute feature off.
1 Enter the Program Mode by holding
both the city and dim buttons down for
2 seconds. Passport will beep twice and
display Program.
2 Then hold the REVIEW button down.
Passport will scroll through the categories,
starting with Pilot Light (Pilot), then
Power-on sequence (PwrOn), then Signal
strength meter (Meter), and then
AutoMute (aMute).
3 Release the REVIEW button when
Passport shows the AutoMute item. Since
the factory setting is for AutoMute to be
on, Passport will display aMute ON.
(If you accidentally don't release the
Review button in time, and Passport goes
to the next category, hold the Review
button down again, and after Passport
scrolls through all categories, it will begin
again at the top of the list.)
4 Press the CHANGE button to change
from aMute ON to aMute OFF.
5 To complete the Programming, simply
wait 8 seconds without pressing any button.
Passport will display Complete, beep 4
times, and return to normal operation.
