How does the PLB1 work?
The PLB1 beacon is best attached to a life jacket or belt. In case of danger, extend the antenna (making sure it is vertically upwards), then press the red button under the protective flap for 1 second. The green diode will flash, which will indicate that the radio beacon has been activated. At certain intervals, the strobe light will also flash, which will help locate the position at night or in conditions of limited visibility. After activation, the radio beacon will wait 50 seconds, collect its position data via 66 GPS channels and transmit it to the rescue center via the COSPAS-SARSAT system. Rescue units will contact the person indicated in the radio beacon registration form as the contact person to confirm the identity of the person calling for help, then they will start the rescue operation. Once activated, the beacon will transmit updated position data for 24 hours.
For more details on activating, deactivating and testing the PLB1 beacon, please refer to the enclosed user manual.
