The next two alphanumeric characters of the code represent the day of the month of
manufacture. Therefore, the date of manufacture for the date code 6J1313 is October 13, 1996.

Battery Expiry Date

The battery Expiry Date is obtained by adding the battery manufacturers rated replacement life
of 10 years to the date of manufacture. For example, a date code of 6J1313 would have a
Battery Expiry Date of October 13, 2006.
SECTION 3 — OPERATION
3.1

General

The EPIRB is designed to operate best when placed on a flat non-conductive surface or while
over water at sea. It should be operated in an area free of obstructions, which could absorb RF
energy and limit radiation patterns.
Position the antenna straight up (perpendicular to ground) and not pointing toward the receiving
station. Note that the radiation field null occurs directly off the end of the antenna.
Maintain a visual path where possible between the Beacon and the receiver, since beacons
characteristically transmit "line of sight". The Beacon transmits on 121.5 MHz.
3.2

Manual Deployment

Remove the Beacon from its storage position and ensure that the antenna telescoping section is
fully extended and that the antenna is in an upright position. Break and remove the flip switch
seal. Flip the switch to the "ON" position. Red LED indicator will illuminate. The LED
indicator will remain on for 5 seconds indicating that the batteries are functional. After 5
seconds, the LED indicator will begin flashing, indicating that the transmitter is functioning
properly. If operated from the deck of the vessel, choose the most advantageous position free of
surrounding obstacles. If deployed in water, make sure that the antenna is positioned vertically
and the antenna itself is out of the water. It is preferable to hold the unit above the water, as
immersion reduces effectiveness.
SECTION 4 — MAINTENANCE
4.1
General
The Beacon has been designed for use with a minimum of maintenance required. A check list is
given in this section, and when accomplished periodically, should help to assure emergency
operation and extended life use.
