Installation
The W470(EX) Personal AIS + Homing Beacon device has been designed to
be worn by the user.
The device can also be installed directly on a self-infating life-jacket by
passing a Velcro strip through the rear fxing stirrup (9) and attaching the
antenna along the life-jacket, again behind the user's neck (10). For this type
of installation please consult the life-jacket manufacturer.
Operation
Before wearing the device it is recommended that you proceed with a test of
your W470(EX) Personal AIS + Homing Beacon to ensure it is working
EN
properly; test procedures are described in the Periodic check section of the
manual.
How to "arm" your W470(EX)
To ensure your device is ready for activation the knob (1) must be set to the
'ARMED' position.
Press the pushbutton (2) inwards to release the safety lock. Then, keeping
the pushbutton pressed, rotate the knob anticlockwise until it reaches the
'ARMED' position, then release the pushbutton (2).
As of this moment your W470(EX) is ready to be activated in the event of an
emergency.
Automatic activation
If your device accidentally falls in the water it will, on coming into contact
with the water, start working within approximately 3 – 5 seconds. The 'sea
sensors' are located on the rear of your device (3) and must be externally
accessible; keeping your W470(EX) in a waterproof pocket or in a zone
inaccessible to water will prevent its activation.
Activation of your W470(EX) will be indicated by:
A red light inside the fash lens (4) (only W470 version)
A beep emitted for 2 seconds at the moment of activation
A white light fashing once every 4 seconds
