1.6 Operation
In the event of a crash, the ME406 or ME406HM activates automatically (automatic fixed “AF”
configuration), and transmits the standard swept tone on 121.5 MHz lasting until battery power
is gone. This 121.5 MHz signal is mainly used to pinpoint the beacon during search and rescue
operations.
