Ocean Signal RescueME AIS Man Overboard Device

Add extra insurance to your inflatable PFD. Ocean Signal has years of experience making industry-leading personal locator beacons. The AIS Man Overboard Device (MOB1) sends an alert and a location to all surrounding vessels at first contact with the water. The first messages has latitude and longitude positioning. Once a GPS signal is connected, subsequent messages have a precise GPS fix (AIS and DSC). For non-man overboard emergencies, the MOB1 can be manually activated.

• Automatic activation sends alert within 15 seconds of hitting the water
• Transmits MOB signal to AIS receivers and AIS enabled plotters in the area
• Automatic Identification System (AIS) used to identify all area marine traffic, transmissions sent to nearby vessels greatly increase the signal reception
• Integrated Digital Selective Caller (DSC) broadcasts on a dedicated VHF channel (ch. 70). Once programed, DSC transmissions let receivers know who, when and where the signal came from. Note – DSC is restricted in some regions, check your local regulations
• MOB1 can be configured with vessel's DSC MMSI number by downloading free software (MMSI number can be updated as needed)
