Personal AIS transmitter beacon – MOB position live on chartplotter/PC
Features:
The parent ship knows where the victim is. Other vessels can assist with the search. No central Coastguard or call centre required to redistribute the information. No annual charge or subscription No waiting for satellites
The Easy Rescue transmits the position of a person fallen overboard directly to all AIS receivers within range.
How does the Easy Rescue work?
The Easy Rescue is a personal AIS transmitting beacon. With a built in GPS it transmits an emergency AIS-SART sentence (MOB) which triggers an alarm on all AIS enabled chart plotters / PC’s within range, along with the Lat/Long of the victim. The GPS is a new generation fast acquiring type and the VHF AIS transmitter repeats the message and position several times per minute. This enables all vessels within range to assist with the rescue if they have an AIS receiver or transponder.
What else do I need?
Apart for an AIS receiver or transceiver connected to a chartplotter / PC, nothing. The Easy Rescue maybe attached to a life jacket or kept on a lanyard. To operate just slide the safety cover off (releasing the coiled antenna) and press ON. A test button allows regular test of GPS function, battery state etc.
