USING THE BEACON
02
SETUP IN THE LONER PORTAL
The Blackline Beacon is shipped with batteries installed and
powered off.
Information must be entered into the Loner Safety application to
enable a Beacon to report its location.
1. Press the Power/Status button to turn the Blackline Beacon
on. The status light will turn On. The Blackline Beacon is now
ready to use.
1. Log in to your Loner Portal account. From the Menu, navigate
to the Beacon activation page. You will be prompted to enter
the Beacon Unit ID and Activation Code found on the product label on the back of the Beacon.
A green status light indicates normal operation. A flashing red
status light indicates low battery. Solid red indicates a fault. The
status light sleeps 2 minutes after the last button. Press to conserve energy while in operation.

Beacons can commence.
™™ IMPORTANT: Take care to note the Unit ID and the location of
each Beacon that you install.

SUGGESTED MOUNTING
The Blackline beacon transmits in a radius of ~40 feet, but the
range is dependent upon obstructions in the environment and
mounting position. Where multiple Blackline Beacons are required, position them close enough to ensure adequate coverage
throughout the desired area.
Beacons should be mounted as high in a room as practical, with
minimal obstructions to interfere with the wireless signal. The
Beacon mounting bracket allows for mounting flush on a wall or
in a corner.
™™ Obstructions that are made of metal or concrete will interfere with the propagation of the wireless signal more than
wooden structures.
The beacon is shipped in the highest Transmit Power Setting and
can be adjusted to reduce the transmit range of the Beacon for
installations where more granular locations are required. See the
Transmit Power Settings section for information on adjusting the
transmit power.

automatically calculate the Longitude and Latitude.
TRANSMIT POWER SETTINGS
™™ IMPORTANT An effective response to an emergency situation depends upon the accuracy and completeness of this
information.
