How GPS Works

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is 

made up of twenty four 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. This data includes 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.

Software Updates

PASSPORT’s red light and speed camera 
database is easily updated using our 
exclusive detector software tools found on 
our web site. Firmware, or the operating 
software for the detector, can also be 
updated using these tools.

 

In order to have access to these 

updates, you must register your PASSPORT 
at www.EscortInc.com. Once registered, 
you will receive email notifications that 
updates are now available for your 
database or firmware.

 

To update your PASSPORT SC55 

database, which includes locations for 
speed cameras, red light cameras and the 
top speed traps in the U.S., please follow 
these simple steps:

1

 

Connect a mini USB cable, (included)  

 

to the PASSPORT SC55

2

 

Connect the USB cable to the PC
