If the LifeTag Base Station is connected to a Seatalk system which includes a SeaTalk chartplotter and GPS,
and a LifeTag alarm occurs, a MOB marker will be displayed on the chartplotter at the location of the MOB
event. In addition, the chartplotter and compatible Seatalk instruments (such as ST60+ and ST290 Graphic
instruments) will display a MOB 999 Waypoint Name, and range / bearing or latitiude/longitude to the MOB
location,plus elapsed time since the MOB event.
This occurs only with compatible products on SeaTalk systems. It does NOT occur on other products
connected via NMEA0183.
When an alarm condition exists, the Base Station optional, switched output provides 12 V as a switching
voltage, for external equipment.
The Alarm 'chirps' briefly, every 10 seconds
If the Base Station detects that a Tag battery voltage is low:
Tag low battery warning
If this occurs, all users should check their Tags for a
low battery voltage indication (2 RED flashes every
10 seconds). If necessary, replace the battery.
