Erase Mark
A mark can be removed by selecting the buried sub-
ject with the
-key and selecting «Erase mark» with
the
-key. You can only remove the mark if you are
in the immediate vicinity (< 6 m) of the buried subject.
Deep Burials
If a buried subject is marked with a distance reading
above 3 m, an additional safety dialog appears asking
you to confirm the successful location of the subject.
Marking a buried subject in more the 6 meters depth
is not possible.

S E A R C H M o d e
Start the search at a high speed and reduce this
speed as you close in on the buried subject. Operate
the transceiver in a quiet and concentrated manner -
avoid rapid movements. This way, you will reach the
objective in the quickest and easiest manner!
Pinpointing
At this point, you must hold the transceiver just
above the snow surface and determine the point
with the smallest distance reading by bracketing.
Within the pinpointing range, i.e. within the immedi-
ate proximity of the buried subject (< 3 meters), the
Barryvox provides you with a digital distance-
dependent tone while pinpointing.
Use the avalanche probe to complete locating the
buried subject (See chapter «Companion Rescue»).
A located subject should only be marked using the
✓
-Mark function after his or her location has been
verified using a probe pole!
Do not place the Barryvox on the snow surface again
for this purpose!
After marking a subject’s location, the Barryvox
searches for other possible burials, displaying the pri-
mary search symbol
and advising you to search
the rest of the avalanche (See chapter «Primary
Search Phase»).
Flux line search
Hold the transceiver
directly above the snow
surface while pinpointing!
