How the GlobalFix™ V4 works:
The GlobalFix™ V4 is a full-featured EPIRB loaded
with high-efficiency electronics for performance you
can count on, including an internal 66 channel GPS
for faster acquisition from a cold start. A protective
keypad cover helps prevent false activation, and the
all-new, user-replaceable battery pack has a 10-year
replacement interval — reducing the overall
ownership cost and making replacement a breeze.
The GlobalFix™ V4 has two functional self-tests to
monitor the beacon’s transmission, power and battery
performance and GPS acquisition. Pair these
tests with ACR’s 406Link.com optional testing portal
(available for the Americas only) and receive
satellite confirmation messages directly to your cell
phone or email address.
Should you ever use the beacon in a life-threatening
situation, ACR will replace it free of charge. Simply
submit your story to ACR’s SurvivorClub.com program
and return your used beacon for a free replacement.
