A screen displaying ‘Searching’ will appear. The ‘Searching’ screen

Walk at least 50 paces away from the tag, simulating the vessel
moving away from the person overboard.

the tag, it points back to the stored GPS location where the alarm
occurred, (Note: the accuracy of your GPS can vary depending on
your mobile device.)

Follow the arrow towards the 'Point of loss'. This will be within the
same area as the switched off OLAS transmitter. The screen will
revert to ‘Searching’ when back within 20 metres.

The Alarm screen will be automatically cancelled when the signal
is found again, reverting to the standby home screen.
