Registration of the EPIRB
Your EPIRB must be registered before use. This allows the SAR authorities
to retrieve information about you and your emergency contacts in an
emergency. Which again enables them to contact you to determine if the
distress signal from the EPIRB is a false alarm, and an expensive rescue
operation can be avoided.
You should register your EPIRB with the national authority associated with
the country code in the hexadecimal identification (15 Hex ID) of your
EPIRB. If your country does not provide a registration facility, and has
allowed direct registration, you can register your EPIRB online with the
Cospas-Sarsat IBRD:
For information about your country’s registration requirements please
consult the list of Beacon Registration Contacts on
From the factory this EPIRB has been programmed with Norwegian country
code (258).

Registration in USA
For registration of the EPIRB in USA, use this link:
http://www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov
The preferred and easiest way to register, is to use the web page. However,
if this is not possible, a filled in registration form can be emailed to:
The registration form is available at the US beacon registration website.
The Emergency contact information must be accurate, especially the
telephone number, as this will be used to validate the distress signal.
The USCG will only launch an immediate rescue if the approximate location
and EPIRB registration details can be confirmed. Otherwise, there will be a
delay whilst further signals from the same source are received and verified.
