Thank you for choosing MOB+!
The xFOB is waterproof down to 10 ft./3m and can be reused after
MOB event. After an MOB-event, the engine can easily be restarted
by;
• dStart - 6 seconds after a MOB Event the system lets
passenger restart the engine to pick up the missing person in
the water. The engine can be started without reconnecting the
xFOB. No interaction with xHUB necessary.
• Reconnect with the xFOB by clicking once on the xFOB to
deactivate dStart and once more to connect.

this product
Read all instructions carefully before use of this product.
FELL Marine equipment and accessories are designed to
the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine
environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the
appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, but
correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not
compromised. Please see section EMC Installation Guidelines in the
User Manual for optimum EMC conditions.
Within the wireless range MOB+ will not shut down the engine
automatically e.g. if you fall in your boat within the wireless range the
engine will not stop automatically. In this event, you can shut down
the engine by pressing the button on your MOB+ xFOB or on the
MOB+ xHUB. Always check your wireless range before use.
WARNING
CAUTION
MOBP17001
MAN OVER BOARD
MOB Mode (Man Overboard Mode) is the safety mode of the
system. MOB+ will automatically activate shut down of the engine
when the STOP FOB is submersed in 4 inches (10 cm) of water or
travels out of range from the xHUB. After 6 seconds, the system
automatically activates Override Mode. In Override Mode any
passenger or crew on board can restart the engine without the need
to interact with the MOB+ system. This allows for a quick recovery of
the missing person in the water and enhances safety.
ALARM FUNCTION: If any of the ALARM FOBs falls overboard
the xHUB will
NOT stop the engine(s), but sound the MOB Alarm,
flashing on the xFOB Connection Indicator on the xHUB and blink
red in the light circle. The alarm continues until the STOP button on
the xHUB is pushed to disengage the alarm.
MOB EVENT RECONNECT: In an MOB event where the STOP FOB
falls overboard, the person returning from the water can reconnect
the xFOB by one click to disable MOB Mode, followed by one more
click on the xFOB to reconnect. Alternatively, remaining passengers
with an ALARM FOB can choose to connect one of their xFOBs.
MOBP17003
In the event that you forget your xFOB or if
it´s out of battery - don´t worry. You can easily
override MOB+ by holding the button on the
xHUB for 10 seconds. The xHUB will give a
sound signal and a yellow light signal every 30
seconds to indicate Override Mode is activated
so you can start the engine(s).
OVERRIDE MODE
MOBP17004
dStart
™
dStart is the direct restart feature in the
MOB+ system. 6 seconds after an MOB event
with a STOP FOB, the MOB+ automatically
activates Override Mode to allow any remaining
passengers in the boat to restart the engine(s)
directly, without interacting with the system.
The Override Mode flashes yellow and gives a
sound feedback every 30 seconds.

EMC GUIDELINES
The guidelines given here describe the conditions
for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may
not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To
ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the
constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum
separation possible between different items of electrical equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever
possible:
FELL equipment and the cables connected to it are:
• At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.
In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to
7 ft. (2 m).
• More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above
and below the radiating element.
• If possible the product is supplied from a separate battery
from that used for engine start. Power supply voltages below
the minimum specified 7V power source, and starter motor
transients, can cause the product to reset. This will not damage
the product, but may cause inability to start the engine.
• FELL specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these
cables can compromise EMC performance and must be
avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
