The PIEPS DSP PRO has an integrated three dimensional inclinometer.
You can check punctually the angle of a slope:
1) Put your ski pole in slope line at that point of the slope
you want to measure.
2) Press the button SCAN for 3 seconds while in SEND-mode.
3) Put your PIEPS DSP PRO next to the ski pole and the angle of the
slope is indicated. The display switches back into SEND-mode
automatically after 20 seconds.
IMPortAnt! During the measurement the PIEPS DSP PRO is transmitting. In case of
an emergency the beacon can be lost. PIEPS recommends to make measurements in avalanche
dangerous areas only in combination with the PIEPS BACKUP!

5. SEConDArY AVALAnCHE | Auto-SEArCH-to-SEnD

The function Auto-Search-to-Send switches the PIEPS DSP PRO automatically from SEARCH
into SEND-mode when the beacon is not moving for a certain time (in case of a burial).
By default, this function is deactivated! Registered user can activate/deactivate this function
online on the PIEPS Service-Portal. Therefore the optional available DSP data cable is necessary.
Or bring your beacon to a PIEPS Service Center.
PIEPS advises that the function Auto-Search-to-Send does not help, when the rescuer has
lost his/her beacon in the case of a secondary avalanche. Only if a rescuer wears an active
transmitter, is the rescuer perfectly equipped in the case of a secondary avalanche.
PIEPS BACKuP: pIEpS recommends to deactivate the auto-Search-to-Send function
in every beacon and instead use an emergency transmitter such as the PiePs BaCkUP.
The PIEPS BACKUP is a mini emergency-transmitter (frequency 457 kHz) that is worn in
addition to a beacon directly on the body and only starts to transmit in case of an emergency.
So PIEPS provides the first 100% solution for locating in case of a possible secondary
avalanche!
