Category I and II
The beacon can be manually activated while still in its bracket by placing the Activation Switch in the ON position. Activation by this method overrides all sensors and turns the beacon “ON.”
Push the main switch up 90 degrees, slide toward antenna and all the way down to activate.
Witness tab will break once placed in the “ON” position
Category I and II
Both Category I and II beacons can be manually deployed by removing the beacon from the bracket.
Once removed, the beacon can be activated by placing it in water OR by lifting the Activation Switch to a vertical position, sliding it toward the antenna and pushing down to the opposite side of the beacon. Activating the beacon in this manner breaks off the Activation Witness Tab and allows the switch to properly seat, showing the “ ▌ “ symbol (ON).
A Category I or II beacon MANUALLY activates with the following sequence: 1.) Remove the beacon from its bracket
2.) Activation method one: Place beacon in water
3.) Activation method two:
//Lift the switch to a vertical position
//Slide the switch toward the antenna
//Push the switch down to the opposite side of the beacon (see illustration above)
NOTE: Category I and Category II beacons can be activated regardless of whether they are removed from the bracket
