Check B: Transmitter deactivation
–
Sleep-mode
The automatic sleep-mode of beacons with iPROBE-support saves time in multiple burials scenarios. The
display of the receiving beacon shows the next strongest signal without pressing the MARK-button. The rescuer
can start with the search immediately.
A transmitting beacon is automatically deactivated after the hit indicator (Check A3) if the transmitting beacon
has iPROBE-Support* and the iPROBE is in a vertical position in the snow. Deactivation (sleep-mode) takes place
within a few seconds.
* Avalanche beacons with PIEPS iPROBE-Support: PIEPS PRO BT, PIEPS POWDER BT, PIEPS MICRO BT
sensor/button/RACE, PIEPS DSP SPORT, PIEPS DSP PRO/PRO ICE, , PIEPS DSP STANDARD/TOUR
≥ v5.0, PIEPS
FREERIDE, BLACK DIAMOND GUIDE/RECON.
Check B: Transmitter deactivation, temporarily deactivation (sleep-mode) of the transmitting beacon
within < 0.5m
both LEDs flash BLUE, 5 repeated flashes
repeated groups of 5 beeps
(ti-ti-ti-ti-ti_ti-ti-ti-ti-ti_etc.)
After deactivation of the transmitting beacon, the
display of the receiving beacon shows the next
strongest signal. The rescuer immediately follows the
new signal, while other rescuers start digging.
As long as the PIEPS iPROBE BT remains in the near range (0
–
approx. 0.5 m) of the transmitting beacon, the
beacon remains deactivated (stays in sleep-mode). If the PIEPS iPROBE BT is removed or changed to the
horizontal position, the transmitting beacon starts transmitting again after 5 seconds.
After being moved away from the transmitting beacon, the PIEPS iPROBE BT remains in Check B until:
•
The PIEPS iPROBE BT is changed from the vertical position to a horizontal position < 20° (carrying
position). In this case, the PIEPS iPROBE BT switches automatically to search mode (Check A1).
•
Or a new transmitting signal is received. In this case, the PIEPS iPROBE BT switches automatically to the
proximity indicator (Check A2) or hit indicator (Check A3).
NOTICE
If the transmitting beacon does not have iPROBE-Support, the transmitting beacon is not
deactivated and the PIEPS iPROBE BT remains in Check A3 mode (hit indicator).
NOTICE
The function „
Sleep-mode
“ can optionally be deactivated in the PIEPS APP.
