Ocean Signal rescueME EPIRB1 · 912S-01365 Issue 01.24 · 2025-12-11. These pages cover PLB1, PLB3, EPIRB1 and EPIRB3 / EPIRB1 Pro / EPIRB2 Pro / EPIRB3 Pro / E100 / E100G only. Pro versions and country protocols require their own documentation. A country filter does not confirm approval or registration.
How it connects
EPIRB1 uses a manual-release bracket; do not treat it as the automatic-release Pro model. Read the unit’s class label: this manual distinguishes Class 2 water activation from Class 3 manual-only activation. Do not immerse it to check. Keep basic and GNSS test records separate. Basic beacon tests, GNSS tests and rescue acknowledgements answer different questions. Preserve existing results and their time; a successful test does not verify the owner registration. This is a non-emergency inspection. Do not activate distress transmission, open the case or start extra tests for this guide. In real danger, follow the exact official emergency instructions.
