New firmware was submitted and should appear on the ALP Update site shortly. This update will include a new firmware update, new setup options if using radar integration and a new ALP Connect app. Summary of the changes are as follows:

Here is a breakdown on the newest update. Posted in this thread because many are ALP Connect improvements:

1. STiR M-edition antenna support added. Now can be fully configured on alpupdate web. Multaradar CD detection has a separate distinct alert & sound.
2. Control Set keyboard gained another function, a button double-click. Also Control Set keyboard button long press did not work at moments, issue resolved.
3. Added City Mode filtering of Radar alerts. Two modes, CityYellow indicated by yellow beep and CityRed indicated by red beep. Modes affect Radar K and X band alerts only. Fully user configurable via online alpupdate setup page. Change City Mode on your ALP by a double-click of a Control Set’s Power button. If using ALPConnect - view alerts for filtered radar signals on flashing City/Highway icon.
4. Fog lights ON/OFF now a tri state button ON/STROBE/OFF, indicated by Constant/Flashing/No green light. Will work only with AL sensors with built in fog feature.
5. Added Dim mode option. Yellow Menu 3 now is a multi-choice 1-OFF, 2-DIMMED, 3-DARK. Dimmed mode is similar to Dark mode but after 10 seconds does not turn off LED blinking completely but just reduces LED intensity (external LED is still turned OFF completely).
6. Added K Band segmentation. K1 (23950-24000), K2 (24000-24050), K3 (24050-24100), K4 (24100-24150), K5 (24150-24200), K6 (24200-24250) MHz and a K Wide (23950-24250) MHz choice. Configurable over alpupdate web page. Use segmentation to remove alerts from Vehicle collision radars (usually >24200 MHz) and from nearby radar-detectors (usually <24100 MHz).
7. Privacy KeyLock mode changed. EEPROM has been designated to store KeyLock activation. Now the activation via Key press has to be done only once and will be remembered after power off. The activation will be cleared when hit by a Laser (a Laser alert).
8. Improved signaling of Front/Rear Laser hit, front laser hit going to behind will be properly shown as front arrows are replaced with rear arrows once laser has switched.
9. Added AutoMute for Radar alerts only. If enabled initial Radar alerts start at set volume for 6 seconds and then automatically lower to discrete volume level for the remainder of the alert. When alert finishes next alert is again announced at full set volume.
10. Added support for various ALPConnect features. Writte to USB, System information, Reset to defaults,…

Sweet, less falses on K band.
Turn off XBAND, Put it into city mode, kill over 24.200 and automute = quiet ride .
Should finally beat the Redline for detection AND being less chatty...

That's something I can live with happily now .
Did some tests with my redline...

Well I messed about with a few door openers.
.123, .138. .150 and .167

My Bushnell was a good test.
I know it centres at .130 but depending on what I aimed at, I got it all they way to .147 and down to .101...
Not 100% sure if I like the K band seg idea for anything under .180 so far....

IS the lag time still an issue (or ever was) between the Sti-R ant and the bluetooth module fixed? I was hearing issues of lag of when you get an alert and no audio/visual for asecond or so?

I have not had any real issue like I think Beingaware had but I was also was running with RDR & TSR off and he had RDR on which automatically delays a response to filter out false alerts.

Only been hit with parked Leo running k , thought the warning distance was as good as just running the plus, first hit see how it goes low power slant k
