(SART)
The SART (Search and rescue Radar Transponder) is a survival device authorized by the GMDSS (Global
Maritime Distress and Safety System), which is used for locating survivors in case that a distress accident
occurs at sea. The SART is designed to operate in the 9 GHz frequency band.
When receiving the 9 GHz radar signal (interrogating signal) transmitted from the radar equipment on a rescue
ship or search aircraft, the SART transmit a series of response signals to inform the distress position to the
rescue and search party.
* This radar provides a shortcut item to make settings for SART signal reception. Execution of this item
automatically switches to the setting for SART reception.
