Note:

When activated, the high beam LED on device will ash SOS signal in Morse code

format every minute.

Upon activation the device will transmit MOB ACTIVE signal every minute with

Lat/Lon position information. In case the GPS location cannot be updated due to

weather conditions, the last obtained Lat/Log GPS position will be sent.

As the device is still new on the market, not all chart plotters with AIS show the

correct

icon as recommended by the IMO. As a minimum, they will show the

same icon as used for other craft - normally an

for AIS MOB begins always with 972 which will di erentiate AIS MOB from

normal AIS targets. Please contact with your plotter manufacturer how they

display

on screen when there are further questions.

Ensure the TB-520D remains out of the water, as water will inhibit the GPS

receiver and may cause di culties obtaining GPS coordinates.

Ensure that the blue area marked "GPS Area" is not shielded or covered in any

way and always has a clear view of the sky. It is recommended that the Short Test

is performed monthly. Return the TB-520D to a service centre for battery

replacement if battery level is low.

Con rm that the battery expiry date shown is in date for the duration of

intended use.

This product emits low levels of radio frequency energy during operation. Avoid

handling the antenna once activated.

6.1 Battery Life Test

Start the battery life test by using the magnet found on

the back side of the test tab to touch the Test Area for one

full second.

The high beam LED will ash once and the beeper will beep

once signifying the device has entered into battery life test

mode. The green ash indicates that the battery is ok. If

your device ashes red light, this indicates low battery

power and the battery needs to be replaced. The device will

ash 3 times and beep once again to end the test.

6.2 Full Function Test

As illustrated, start the full function test by using the

magnet found on the back side of the test tab to touch the

Test Area. Just like the Battery Test, the strobe LED will ash

once and the device will beep once when the test magnet

approaches the Test Area. Hold the magnet next to the Test

Area for 3 additional seconds in which a second audible

beep indicates the unit is in Full Function Test. The battery

LED and GPS LED will commence to ash every 3 seconds

to indicate the battery status and GPS locating status:

5. Turning o your TB-520D

Insert the activation tab back in the unit and the transmission will be ceased.

Put the antenna back to its original position by wrapping around the unit, as

well as, the antenna cap.

5.1 Closing the red antenna cap

Align the red antenna cap with the unit, longer side facing the front and the

shorter side facing the back. Push the red antenna cap all the way until the

antenna cap clip pass the wedge.

6. Testing your TB-520D

The device is equipped with self test capability to perform 2 di erent tests to

ensure the beacon is working perfectly. The rst is a battery life test to check

the beacon's battery power. The second test is a GPS self test that includes

GPS activation and live test message transmission.

The green battery LED indicates that the battery is ok. If the

battery LED ashes red light, this indicates low battery power

and the battery needs to be replaced.

The green GPS LED next to the antenna indicates that GPS x is

achieved, the red GPS LED means that no GPS position is

obtained.

As soon as GPS x is achieved, the device will start sending MOB test messages,

which will be displayed with a

icon on all AIS systems within range. The Full

Function Test will be completed with a beep, after 8 bursts of test messages are

successfully sent. When no valid GPS data is obtained within 5 minutes, the Full

Function Test is regarded as failed and will be ended with a beep as well.

In case of a failed Full Function Test, check and make sure that the antenna is

pointing towards the sky and the "GPS Area" marked on the device is not

obstructed by hand or other objects. When the Full Function Test fails a second

time, return the device to your service center.

Note:

1) You can interrupt the test mode any time by pull o the activation tab and then

insert the tab subsequently. Please notice that under test mode, the device will

not transmit distress message also when the activation tab is removed. Hence

there is no risk of activating the alarm transmission when the user pulls the

activation tab o to abort the test mode.

2) The MOB test message generated by a full function test will appear on all chart

plotters with AIS within range in the form of a SRM (Safe Related Message). The

message is "MOB TEST" with the device´s MMSI number as sender´s identity.
