Product Description
Head offshore with confidence. With three levels of integrated signal technology - GPS positioning, a powerful 406 MHz signal and 121.5 MHz homing capability - the GlobalFix PRO quickly and accurately relays your position to a worldwide network of Search and Rescue satellites, reducing search time and increasing your chances of survival. It’s reliable signaling technology that has saved more than 26,800 lives since 1982. The GlobalFix PRO broadcasts a unique registered distress signal that not only tells rescuers where you are, but who you are. The internal GPS will automatically turn on and acquire your position upon activation and then utilizes a powerful 406 MHz signal to relay your distress call to orbiting satellites. As local Search and Rescue is deployed, a separate homing signal and integrated LED strobe light guide rescuers to your exact location. The GlobalFix PRO is small and rugged and comes with over 53 years of life saving technology built into every one. Performing a full functional self test of the GlobalFix PRO internal circuitry, battery voltage & power, and 406 MHz transmission gives you peace of mind, knowing your EPIRB will work the moment you need it the most. An ACR Exclusive, the built-in GPS acquisition test mode allows you to test the internal GPS receiver to ensure its working properly. The FastACQ GPS engine acquires LAT/LON from a cold start better than normal GPS engines. The unit floats upright and has a high visibility built-in strobe. It transmits on the 406 MHz (COSPAS-SARSAT)frequency with your registered, digitally-coded distress signal, and also has the 121.5 MHz SAR homing frequency. An easy to use manual release bracket is included.
