INTRODUCTION

The PB-5 is a reliable, fully synthesized, user programmable, one watt, package beacon.

It has a number of unique features. Two modes of operation allow you to track or monitor a package using a DTC TRAK/R

system or a VHF-FM receiver, Tracker mode and Event mode. The beacon's two primary connections are the break wire

and the standby wire. When the break wire is broken the alarm is activated, which is transmitted to the receiver. When the

standby wire is removed, the transmitter wakes up and begins its pre-configured actions. The configuration options include

the ability to enable or disable the motion sense feature, event or track, and deviation settings.

TRACKER MODE

For tracking a letter or package, Tracker mode is used in conjunction with the DTC TRAK/R system. In the Tracker mode, the

PB-5 will send pulses to the DTC TRAK/R system at various repetition rates to signal that the package is stationary or in

motion and to identify location. The PB-5 Tracker mode is intended to be used with DTC's TRAK/R systems. When the PB-5

is in Tracker Mode, it transmits pulses, which alerts the TRAK/R operator to the condition of the PB-5. The pulses produced by

the PB-5 can be directly monitored or converted to signal strength tones through the TRAK/R system. The pulse is a group of

four 15 millisecond pulses, spaced 15 milliseconds apart.

•

Stationary

Stationary mode is transmitted when physical movement has not been detected for at least 4 seconds, but less than 30

minutes. At power up, the PB-5 defaults to stationary condition. The pulses are transmitted every two seconds in

stationary condition.

•

Parked

Parked condition is transmitted when physical movement has not been detected for 30 minutes. The pulses are

transmitted every four seconds in parked condition.

•

Motion

When physical movement has been detected, the PB-5 will transmit in the motion condition. The pulses are transmitted

every second in the motion condition.

•

Break Wire

If the break wire is broken, the unit goes into alarm mode and sends out alarm tones once a second (interleaved with

tracking pulses also occurring once per second).

•

Standby Wire

If the standby wire feature is used, then the unit will not begin to send tones until standby is exited (the alarm feature

will still work normally).
