There are Smart 500 and Hard 500 options as well, depending
What is the difference between smart and hard 500?
When I noticed it I was in a turn, rolled out of the turn and the 2500 call was missed.
In our airlines pin programme the next call is 1000. I presume rolling out of the turn and then having the rad Alt pointing directly down instead of at an angle showed a sudden rate of descent and so the system doesn't call 2500 so it can call 1000. Presumably at that rate of descent it decided by the time it has said "two thousand five hundred" you would already by at 1000.
