Note 3<br />
Recommendation — 1 test a month over a period of 10 years. Long tests twice a year over a 10 year period. Long tests to be conducted in full view of sky. Obstacles<br />
will increase time taken for GNSS lock, reducing the battery life.<br />
Warranty is 1 year from date of purchase, an additional 4 years upon registration with Seas Of Solutions.<br />
As a responsible manufacturer, Seas Of Solutions recommends a 5-year health check. Shore-based maintenance mandated vessels, battery health check or<br />
replacements should be carried out in accordance with flag Administration requirements and not exceeding 5 years<br />

FASTFIND Return Link PLB<br />
498-1002384 FASTFIND Return Link PLB with Galileo/GPS GNSS and RLS £399.60<br />
A new type of lifesaving distress beacon, the FastFind ReturnLink PLB,<br />
utilises unique functionality generated by Galileo satellite constellations<br />
Return Link Service (RLS) to send a signal to the FastFind ReturnLink<br />
beacon confirming the users 406MHz distress alert has been received and<br />
Galileo GNSS location coordinates have been detected<br />
● RLS: the first of a new range of SAR beacons that receive a reassurance<br />
signal confirming distress alert and location have been received by the<br />
search and rescue authorities<br />
● Multi Constellation GNSS: Building on Seas Of Solutions’ leadership<br />
in innovative location detection technology, FastFind Returnlink<br />
incorporates both Galileo and GPS GNSS services<br />
● Multiple Attach Points: PLB come with belt attachable buoyancy pouch<br />
and life jacket oral tube clip attachments<br />
● Floats: with provided buoyancy pouch<br />
● Free to use: No subscription<br />
● Power Assurance: 5-year battery life<br />
● Waterproof: to 10m<br />
● Indicator Light: High brightness LED<br />
signal light + Blue LED for RLS indications<br />
● SOS flash light: Morse code SOS flash pattern, 30 operations<br />
● Practical: Safe-stow antenna and 3 stage activation<br />
How the Return Link Service works<br />
Galileo’s Return Link Service (RLS) allows distress beacons a<br />
two-way communication. Beacons with RLS capabilities receive a<br />
re-assurance signal in the form of a blue light. This light, typically<br />
activated 10 minutes after beacon activation, indicates the distress<br />
signal has been received and that the user’s location is known by the<br />
professional rescue services.<br />
