The EPIRB Tester 406 Mini (Beacon Tester 406 Mini) is the most comfortable and reliable solution for out-of-office testing of any type of distress radio beacon (EPIRBs, PLBs) working under COSPAS-SARSAT system.
The EPIRB Tester Mini w/ Wi-Fi provides all necessary measurements on frequency at 406 MHz and 121.5 MHz homing signal frequency.
The measurements are managed from your mobile device, connected via Wi-Fi. All platforms are supported: Android, IOs, Windows, Linux, etc.
Intuitive interface of the software enables even an unexperienced surveyor to provide professional testing and measure numerous parameters to make sure that the beacon is reliable. Test report will be generated automatically just click for a needed one.
The testing protocols comply with SOLAS regulations as well as with the IMO Circulars 1039 and 1040.
The Beacon Tester Mini receives and decodes messages from any 406MHz COSPAS-SARSAT beacon, transmitting them either in test mode or in emergency mode. The signal can be received through the broadcast using an antenna or the Tester can be connected with a beacon directly with a cable through a suitable attenuator. Radiated tests in emergency mode should be carried out using a shielded room (or a box) only.
After the testing, the results will be displayed on the screen and the software will provide the possibility to generate a test report.
