5. Bring the Tag back into range of the Base Station, to automatically cancel the alarm. If the alarm 

does not cancel automatically, hold down the Tag button for 5 seconds then release it, to manu-
ally cancel the alarm.

Note:  

You can manually cancel an alarm from any active Tag within range of the Base Station. 

2. Check each Tag to ensure the LED indicator 

briefly flashes GREEN once every 10 seconds, 
to indicates that the Tag is ACTIVE. If a Tag is 
not active, press and release the push button 
to activate the Tag.

            

3. Take each Tag, one at a time, to every part of 

the vessel to which crew members have 
access, (i.e. every cabin, compartment and all 
extremes of the deck). Ensure that no alarms 
are initiated.

            

4. With the boat moored alongside, take each 

Tag away from the boat and note the distance 
from the Base Station at which an alarm is ini-
tiated. This should be approximately 30 feet (9 
meters).
