4 General Product Description
The easyRESCUE-PRO combines two devices in one. On the one hand, it is a portable AIS
emergency transmitter (AIS-MOB) with an integrated GPS receiver. On the other hand, the
device includes a fully approved DSC Class D transceiver.
This powerful combination of two services allows enhanced rescue operations in case of
MOB (Man Over Board) distress situations. In case of a distress situation the two systems,
which are operating absolutely simultaneously, guarantee the following:
4.1 AIS-MOB operation
Internationally defined emergency messages are transmitted every minute on the two
worldwide used AIS frequencies. Every AIS receiver or transceiver in the vicinity of the
transmitter is able to receive and interpret these messages, showing the emergency case on
an ECDIS (
E lectronic C hart Dis play) installed aboard. Systems like this are nowadays operated
not only on commercial vessels, but on an increasing amount of leisure ships as well. The
emergency case is shown on these displays with a unique symbol (red cross inside a red cir-
cle), accompanied by an acoustic alarm. In addition all relevant information, like the unique
Identification Number (MMSI of the Rescue transmitter) of the person in distress, exact posi-
tion and time, SOG (
S peed O ver G round), COG ( C ourse O ver G round) regarding the distress
situation, can be found on the display as well. All data is updated every minute, so vessels in
the radio range are informed with revised data in this time interval. Compared to satellite
operated systems AIS-MOB directly informs all vessels surrounding the emergency and a
short-term rescue operation can be conducted. Even in harsh environment, the victim has
highly raised chances to survive.
