Blow Away False Alerts!

You'll wonder what a false alert even is because you won't hear anymore of them. Beltronics hates false alerts as much as you do so they made sure there wouldn't be any of them. You've got the exclusive AutoScan feature which intelligently analyzes and filters out signals from nonthreatening sources and just in case one slips in, the AlertLock feature lets you lock out false alerts base on your GPS location. You also get selectable City/Highway modes with added filters for even more fine tuning. Plus, the PRO500 utilizes Digital Signal Processing to further scan and analyze all incoming signals to reject false alarms from sources like traffic flow sensors.

  • All new AutoScan technology provides long range warning and intelligently reduces false alerts
  • Traffic Signal Rejection (TSR) eliminates alerts from X-band and K-band traffic flow sensors
  • Select between AutoScan Highway and City modes
  • 3 City Mode filters to eliminate false alerts from X-bands
  • Selectable Bands allow you to shut off specific bands
    • Some bands like the X-band aren't used in certain areas for radar enforcement - Turn off the band if it's not needed so you don't get alerted
  • Compatible with Escort Live! to receive information about threats from other Beltronics and Escort radar detector users
  • Total Tracking Laser circuitry and Dual Port Laser Lens are always searching for laser guns to provide superior range and excellent off axis performance
  • The PRO500 can decode Safety Warning System messages to warn you of dangers on the road

PRO500 GPS Features

GPS Based Threat Protection

Yeah that's right, satellites. The PRO500 comes equipped with GPS based protection that is preloaded with redlight and fixed position speed camera locations in North America. You can even add your own hotspots like known Speed Traps using the Mark Location feature allowing for complete location based customization. You can update the database easily through Beltronics website so your location based protection is always up to date.
  • Preloaded with thousands of red light and fixed location speed cameras
  • Mark Location feature allows you to mark known speed traps, cameras and other hot spots
  • Speed Check feature displays your vehicle's speed within the first few seconds of an alert
  • Software can be updated through the Beltronics website

PRO500 Voice Alerts

Friendly Voice Alerts Keeps Your Eyes On The Road

Who doesn't like to have a friendly person to chat with on the road? Well, the PRO500 can't have an actual conversation with you but it'll talk at you and provide you with crisp voice alerts so you can keep your eyes on what matters, which of course would be the road. And in case the PRO 500 is getting a little too chatty, Beltronics patented AutoMute circuitry will reduce the volume level on long encounters.
  • Keep your eyes on the road
  • AutoMute reduces volume level on long encounters

Crystal Clear Display

The PRO500 has a ultra bright high definition display that can be easily read at any angle. The bar graph will display the detected band and relative signal strength so you have an idea of where the radar is coming from. And for nighttime driving, you have multiple brightness levels to adjust including a full dark mode for a more discreet driving experience.

  • 280 LED alphanumeric display
  • Exclusive Threat Display shows multiple radar signals along with a strength meter
  • Tech Display shows the exact numeric frequency of the radar being received
  • 5 adjustable brightness levels plus Dark mode
  • Or, go auto - The PRO500 has an Auto brightness Sensor which will automatically adjust to the ambient lighting in the vehicle

The PRO500 is ready to go out of the box but it has tons of features to play around with and adjust so you can get the perfect customized protection for your personal driving needs. At the end of the day, investing in a radar detector is just a good idea that can save you some serious cash and headache.

Good Unit

This is my first radar detector purchase since the early 1990's. So far about 500 miles of use and it has been pretty accurate at detecting active radar in police cars. It like any detector does detect alarm systems like many banks have during your daily travels but a simple push of the button marks it. For normal highway driving the stores for the most part are far enough away that it is not a problem. I was surprised that for the most part all detector are the same size but I suppose the antennas in them dictate the size of the detector. My old uniden from the early 90's is smaller than a pack of smokes, but good luck using one of those now a days, the thing just beeps the entire way down the road.

Good detector Pro 300 has better range

Overall good radar detector but not as good as Pro 300 in range, Beltronics Pro 300 more of a raw radar detector with less features and filtering than Beltronics Pro 500. Beltronics no longer makes radar detector, no idea if they will repair older models or honor customers warrant? Would choice Beltronics Pro 500 because of the extra features and you can lock out false alarms.
