Checking for Messages
When you send a message, your device listens for replies for 10 minutes. The device also checks for new
messages every hour. When you are using the inReach tracking feature, your device automatically checks for
messages at your tracking interval.
NOTE: To receive messages, your device must have a clear view of the sky and be in view of a satellite when it
checks for messages.
You can force a check for messages by manually checking for messages, sending a message, or sending a
track point. During a check, your device connects to satellites and receives messages waiting to be sent to your
device.
