INTERNAL GPS

3.7.1
The GlobalFix™ 406 is fitted with an internal Global Position-
ing System receiver that will determine the navigational coordi-
nates, latitude and longitude, of its position on the globe to be
transmitted to the emergency system. When the GlobalFix™
406 is turned ON, the GPS is immediately turned ON and it
immediately begins acquiring data. Initially the red LED, Light
Emitting Diode, flashes once per second to indicate the Global-
Fix™ 406 is turned ON and operating. As soon as the GPS
receiver acquires good navigational data the red LED stops
blinking and the green LED flashes once per second to indicate
that the internal GPS receiver has acquired good navigational
data. Once good navigational data has been obtained the GPS
receiver waits for 20 minutes before looking for new naviga-
tional data again. If for any reason a time period of 4 hours
passes without the GPS receiver being able to update the last
good set of navigational data, the message transmitted by the
GlobalFix™ 406 will revert back to default data. At this point
the green LED will stop blinking and the red LED will flash
once per second. If at any time after this, good navigational
data is obtained, this data will be transmitted, the red LED will
stop blinking and the green LED will flash once per second.

MAINTENANCE (Check antenna for tightness)
4.1
At least every ninety days, the float free mounting bracket and
GlobalFix™ 406 EPIRB should be inspected for deterioration
and/or buildup that may affect the function of the beacon or
automatic release.
Also carefully inspect the EPIRB case for any visible cracks.
Cracks may admit moisture, which could falsely activate the
beacon or otherwise cause a malfunction. Any cracking ob-
served should be immediately referred to ACR for evaluation,
(1-800-432-0227 Ext. 112)
4.2
Clean the beacon and the mounting bracket to remove residue
buildups. It is recommended that the mounting bracket be
waxed with a high quality marine wax.
