Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.

[. . . ] Wherever these words appear, reference is made to the government body responsible for EPIRB registration for the country in which the vessel is registered. The addresses for various national authorities can be found on the Registration Card appropriate for your vessel. please use the enclosed FCC FORM 506 to modify your radio station license if necessary. For information on whether you need a radiostation license, call 1-888-CALLFCC (toll free) NOTES: FIGURE 2: ACR/RLB-27 SATELLITE EPIRB - 13 - 16 - FIGURE 3: AUTOMATIC RELEASE MOUNT BRACKET FIGURE 4: BEACON IN AUTOMATIC RELEASE BRACKET - 14 - - 15 - approved shipping carton or for return shipment instructions refer to the nearest dealer or contact ACR Electronics, Inc. [. . . ] If there is any doubt as to the ready accessibility to the beacon at all times or if any condition may appear to be questionable, make complete and thorough investigation before making final approval of the installation. 3. 1. 4 2. 2 2. 2. 1 no longer in its bracket (a deployment condition) and other sensors to determine if its in water. Two conditions must be satisfied for the Satellite 406TM to automatically activate: 1) It must be out of its bracket, 2) It must be in the water, Note: Either condition by itself will not activate the beacon. The Satellite 406TM is also designed to allow the user to perform periodic testing while EPIRB is in the release bracket to assure a functioning beacon. Place the Satellite 406TM Product No's 2754 and 2756 into the release bracket with the coiled lanyard inward. The beacon should now be firmly held in the release bracket and ready for automatic deployment. AUTOMATIC DEPLOYMENT & DEACTIVATION (Product No's 2754 & 2756 only) Automatic deployment and activation occurs when the vessel sinks and a hydrostatic release device frees the beacon from the bracket allowing it to float to the surface. Built-in sensors detect that the beacon is no longer in its bracket and is in water. Note: Transmissions of the 121. 5 MHz signal will begin immediately while the first 406 MHz transmission will not occur until 50 seconds later. 3. 1. 5 3. 2 3. 2. 1 SECTION 3 - OPERATION 3. 1 3. 1. 1 GENERAL The Satellite 406TM Beacon Models 2754, 2756, 2772, and 2773 are designed to be automatically deployed and activated. The Satellite 406TM may also be hand held on the deck of vessels, or floated in water and attached to a raft or life vest with the lanyard provided. The Satellite 406TM is designed to operate best while floating in water. The Satellite 406TM Beacon can be deployed and activated manually in any of the available products. Because many users failed to properly place earlier generation beacons in the ARMED or READY positions when installing them in their brackets, U. S. and International specifications require the elimination of the OFF switch position and the inclusion of sensors to automatically activate the beacon under specific conditions. The Satellite 406TM is equipped with sensors to detect when it is -7- 3. 3 3. 3. 1 MANUAL DEPLOYMENT & ACTIVATION The Satellite 406TM can be manually deployed by removing the retaining pin, then removing the beacon from the mount. It is best to hold one hand against the beacon when removing the retaining pin to prevent the ejector spring from tossing the beacon. Once removed from the bracket, the beacon can be activated by placing it in water or by pulling the red lanyard to break the yellow key, remove the yellow key and move switch to ON position. Note: Activating the beacon by removing the yellow blocking key will cause a tear in the end of the key. The permanent change to the blocking key is a positive indicator of a manual activation. -8- 3. 1. 2 3. 1. 3 Duty Cycle Antenna Frequency Polarization VSWR 37. 5% 406. 025 & 121. 500 MHz Vertical Less than 1. 5/1 White 0. 75 effective candela 20--30 per minute Release System Hydrostatic with manual override Satellite 406 hydro release kit Hydro release kit for Sea Shelter Pull Tab assembly Replacement Kit RLB-27/28 Release Tag Replacement Kit, Bracket RLB-27 Hydrostatic Release Kits No. 9333 Xenon Strobe Light Color Output Power Flash Rate Replacement Kits No. 9344 General/Environmental Battery Life Operating Replacement Interval Size EPIRB less Antenna Antenna Material, EPIRB Color Weight Temperature Range Operating Class I Class II Stowage Class I Class II 48 hours minimum 5 1/2 years 8. 92" (22. 66 cm) 5. 65" (14. 35 cm) High impact and UV resistant plastic International Orange 2. 2 lbs.

[. . . ] SATELLITE DETECTION The Satellite 406 TM constitutes the satellite EPIRB portion of the COSPAS-SARSAT System. The system was developed and implemented by the COSPAS-SARSAT Partners (Russian Federation, Canada, France and the United States). COSPAS-SARSAT is an international system that uses Russian Federation and United States low altitude, near-polar orbiting satellites that assist in detecting and locating activated 121. 5/243 MHz EPIRBs and 406 MHz Satellite EPIRBs. The Russian Federation provides aboard COSMOS navigation spacecraft COSPAS payloads that are inter-operable with the SARSAT System. [. . . ]
