3. Quick Start
1. Remove the magnet prior to attaching the head
assembly to the battery tube unless a delayed
activation is needed. For the –RH and –RH2 versions
(Remote Head), confirm power is applied to the head
assembly.
2. Insert batteries into the battery tube and attach the
head assembly to the battery tube.
3. Check that the head assembly at the end of the
Pressure Case is secure, clockwise tight.
NOTE:
Successful operation of the iBCN relies on
maintaining a water tight seal. When closing the
unit, position the beacon so that the O-ring is held in
place by gravity. This can prevent the O-ring from
being dislodged and improperly sealing the beacon.
Please refer Section 7.4 and Section 7.5 for
information regarding O-ring maintenance.
4. Optionally, establish a Bluetooth serial connection
to the beacon if modifications to the configuration
are required.
NOTE:
See Section 6.4 for assistance with setting
up a Bluetooth connection.
5. Confirm the iBCN is transmitting Iridium messages
by using an Iridium message detector like the
MetOcean Telematics iON Iridium Detector.
