Deactivation
To deactivate your ResQLink AIS after use or if it is accidentally activated, press the TEST/OFF Key
until the LED flashes red twice, then release. As long as it is turned off within 30 seconds of activation
there is no requirement to contact the authorities (see section 2.7 False Alerts).
NOTE:
Non-RLS Protocol is usually
country specific and is not a
user changeable function.
