rescueME EPIRB2 Pro Cat I with RLS & NFC With the Return Link Service (RLS) technology and Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities, the EPIRB2 Pro provides significant advantages over its predecessors. RLS comforts those who activate the beacon by confirming that their distress message has been received and the inclusion of NFC capability allows the use of a smartphone app to monitor the EPIRB’s battery and other functions ensuring it is working properly.  The innovative features of the EPIRB2 Pro and the included auto-release float-free bracket make it an excellent choice for a wide variety of marine applications specific to both recreational and commercial vessels. In developing the EPIRB2 Pro, Ocean Signal has drawn on its substantial experience in designing and producing high-quality, feature-packed EPIRBs utilizing a conveniently compact form factor. Employing multiple levels of integrated signaling technology including 406 MHz, GNSS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass) positioning, and a 121.5 MHz homing signal, the EPIRB2 Pro effortlessly guides search and rescue forces to your location. The addition of Return Link Service (RLS) technology and Near Field Communication capability round out the impressive feature set of the EPIRB2 Pro. Smartphone Connectivity Utilizing Near-Field Communication The integration of NFC technology provides users with the ability to conveniently access beacon data from their mobile phones. The simple act of placing a phone near the beacon automatically opens the Ocean Signal Product App and provides access to a wealth of usage data including current battery life, the number of self-tests completed, the number of GNSS tests completed, and if applicable, the amount of time that the beacon has been activated. Detailed information on each self-test and GNSS test performed by the beacon is also available. Information that is accessible for each successful GNSS test includes access to a map showing exactly where the test was performed, the date and time of the test, the time it took the beacon to get a GNSS coordinate fix, the number of satellites the beacon used to obtain that fix, and the accuracy of the location. Global Coverage via the Cospas-Sarsat Satellite Network Harnessing the global reach of the Cospas-Sarsat Satellite Network, the EPIRB2 Pro can be activated anywhere, at any time, and will transmit your 406 MHz distress message. The distress transmission includes beacon coordinates that are derived from the EPIRB’s integrated GNSS receiver and are accurate to within 100 meters.     RLS provides reassurance for users by sending a return signal through the Galileo satellite network directly back to the beacon to confirm that the distress message has been received and the beacon location has been detected. User confirmation is distinctly indicated by a flashing blue light. Return Link Service (RLS) The inherent stress associated with a maritime emergency situation is a challenging symptom that all boaters, unfortunately, have to deal with should they find themselves in a distress scenario. Fortunately, the inclusion of the RLS feature in the EPIRB2 Pro provides a means of minimizing the stress in such situations. RLS provides a direct-to-beacon confirmation letting the user know that their distress message has been received and their location detected. The indication of RLS functionality is represented by a distinctive blue light, making it simple for users to ascertain exactly when the RLS confirmation is received. Mounting Bracket The EPIRB2 Pro comes complete with a Category I auto-release float-free mounting bracket. This bracket securely stores the EPIRB2 Pro for the duration of your trip regardless of the conditions experienced throughout. It also provides the best chance of deployment in distress situations where it is difficult for a crew member to reach the EPIRB. Ocean Signal prides itself on continuing to offer new and exciting features such as RLS and NFC as it maintains its goal of offering the highest quality innovative safety products. Regardless of the reason for your next voyage, or your chosen destination, guarantee your safety with the carriage of the EPIRB2 Pro.

GlobalFix V6 EPIRB Catagory I with Return Link Service & Near Field Communication The ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB is a versatile emergency position-indicating radio beacon suitable for use on both recreational and commercial vessels. High-tech features like Return Link Service (RLS) reassure users by confirming that the beacon has successfully sent the distress message and that this message has been received. ACR’s Near Field Communication (NFC) allows the beacon to connect to a smartphone for quick diagnostics that demonstrate the battery is charged and the EPIRB is functioning properly. The GlobalFix V6 is an ideal safety solution for all types of vessels and activities, including coastal cruising, offshore passage-making, or working or fishing in any ocean. Reliable Worldwide Digital Mayday Tells Rescuers Where to Search The ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB accurately derives its position globally through the GNSS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass) positioning networks. Triggering the device produces a digital mayday using a 406 MHz distress transmission that relays the GPS EPIRB (GPIRB) position, accurate to within 100 meters, to the worldwide Cospas Sarsat search and rescue satellite network. Position information and vessel identification are then relayed by the satellites to ground stations, which ultimately helps decide the scope of the rescue operation to be launched. Once the EPIRB is activated, a 121.5 MHz signal is transmitted in addition to the higher frequency satellite signal. This 121.5 MHz homing signal aids rescuers in finding the device when they arrive at the rescue scene, which is particularly important if the beacon has drifted from its original location. The GlobalFix V6 EPIRB also emits both a visual and infrared strobe to help rescuers pinpoint the beacon and speed rescue operations. Near Field Communication (NFC) Ensures the EPIRB is Functioning Properly Using ACR’s free smartphone app and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, users can easily access EPIRB diagnostics. Placing a smartphone adjacent to the GlobalFix V6 EPIRB opens the ACR Product App which shows EPIRB data. The app shows the current battery life of the beacon, the number of GNSS and self-tests completed, and the amount of time the EPIRB has been activated. Users can see detailed information on each self-test and GNSS test performed by the device. GNSS tests include a map view demonstrating where previous tests were performed, the date and time of the tests, how long it took the EPIRB to get a fix on the GNSS coordinates, the number of satellites used to obtain that fix, and the fix’s accuracy. NFC allows users to routinely check the status of all EPIRB functions to ensure it is working properly and ready to go in case of an emergency. Return Link Service (RLS) Return Link Service indicates to the user that an EPIRB rescue transmission has been received. The RLS signal is sent back through the Galileo satellite network, confirming that the digital mayday including precise beacon location and identifiers, has been delivered. An easy-to-see flashing blue light indicates the EPIRB’s successful reception of the Return Link message through the Galileo satellite network. Those in distress who have triggered the beacon and received the RLS confirmation know that rescuers will be made aware of the EPIRB activation and location and that rescue operations will be launched. ACR is a globally recognized leader in marine electronic rescue devices and other life-saving products. They build quality rescue equipment solutions like the ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB that is suitable for all types and sizes of vessels in both the recreational and commercial sectors. Long life Lithium batteries, global 406 MHz satellite transmission, a 121.5 MHz homing signal, visual and infrared strobes, and a Return Link Service that tells users their rescue signal has been received are all packed into a durable waterproof beacon. Near Field Communication and the free ACR App allow users to check the EPIRB status for added reliability. Mariners' coastal cruising, working offshore, or crossing oceans will appreciate the advanced features of the GlobalFix V6 EPIRB.
