Group Test
(CHECK)
Before leaving the hut or trailhead,
the beacons of all group members must
be checked.
To run the test, the group test function
is activated on a single beacon from
the group.
Keep the
MODE key pressed
during the self- and battery test until
“CH” is displayed
. Now check that all the
members of the group have their beacons
in the SEND mode.
The
test is successful if a beep
can be
heard
clearly at a distance of 1 meter
.
Make sure the individual
members of the
group are sufficiently far apart
to avoid
interference.
After five minutes the Barryvox automatically
reverts to SEND. You are notified about
the impending switchover by 20 seconds of
warning tone.
To remain in CHECK mode, press any key
during the alarm period.
After completion of the group test
the Barryvox must be switched to the
SEND mode.
To do this, press the MODE
key for at least 2 seconds.
If different transceiver types are used in a
group, do a
double group check
testing
transmit and receive separately!
Before leaving
the hut or the trail-
head the beacons
of all group members
must be checked.
