4.3  Deactivation

If the SART has been inadvertently activated, it can 

be turned off simply by reversing the activation 

process.

Slide the Green switch to the left - the Red switch 

will return to the off position.

Release the Green switch.

It is not possible for the user to replace the clear 

protective cover. Return the SART to an Ocean Sig-

nal authorised service centre for replacement.

4.4  Testing

It is recommended that the S100 SART is tested 

periodically. A full test should be carried out in 

conjunction with an X-band radar on a nearby 

vessel if possible. A full test should always be 

carried out as part of the annual service, with short 

inspections every two months.

Activate Test Mode by rotating the grey test switch 

clockwise and holding.

If there is radar activity in the area then the Red 

LED will start to flash intermittently, indicating that 

the radar signals are being received.

The radar display of any vessels within radar de-

tection range of your location will now be showing 

the return from the SART.

Depending on the distance of the vessel to the 

SART and the tuning of the radar, the display will 

vary between a set of concentric rings to a line of 

twelve blips in a straight line on a bearing between 

the vessel and the SART.

!

 

Test Mode is the same as Activation 

Mode, so keep the test duration to 

a minimum to avoid falsely alerting 

other vessels that you may be in 

distress and minimise battery drain.
