In Self-Test, the display illustrates the test
result of each step with “√” indicating a pass
and “X” indicating a failure. There are a total of
five tests, including a battery check. If all tests
pass, SELF-TEST PASS will be displayed at
the end of the Self-Test mode. In the GNSS
Self Test mode, the digital display will show
the letters “GPS Test” moving left to right while
the internal GPS receiver is acquiring the
coordinate data. Once the data is acquired,
the coordinates will display as a confirmation
that the data was successfully acquired. This
will be followed by the GPS coordinates
horizontally scrolling through the display,
provided the beacon has successfully
downloaded an external GPS location. See
Appendixes B through E for details about
display messages.
7. Activating your beacon
Overview
Personal Locator Beacons are designed to be manually activated. They
are only to be activated when all other means of self-rescue have been
exhausted. When properly registered as required, the activation of the
beacon tells Search and Rescue who you are, where you are, and that
you are facing a life threatening situation.
Warning: This transmitter is authorized for use only during
situations of grave and imminent danger. Deliberate misuse may
incur a severe penalty.
