Description

GlobalFix V6 Category 2 EPIRB with Return Link Service & Mobile App

The new ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB is a versatile Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon suitable for use on both recreational and commercial vessels. 

Features 

High-tech features like Return Link Service (RLS) reassure users by confirming that the beacon has successfully sent the distress message and that this message has been received. ACR’s new Near Field Communication (NFC) allows the beacon to connect to a smartphone for quick diagnostics that demonstrate the battery is charged and the EPIRB is functioning correctly. The GlobalFix V6 is an ideal safety solution for all types of vessels and activities, including coastal cruising, offshore passage-making, or working or fishing in any ocean.

Reliable Worldwide Digital Mayday Tells Rescuers Where to Search

The ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB accurately derives its position globally through the GNSS (GPS, Galileo, and Glonass) positioning networks. Triggering the device produces a digital distress transmission using a 406 MHz distress transmission that relays the GPS EPIRB (GPIRB) position, accurate to within 100 meters, to the worldwide Cospas Sarsat search and rescue satellite network. 

Position information and vessel identification are then relayed by the satellites to ground stations, which ultimately helps decide the scope of the rescue operation to be launched. Once the EPIRB is activated, a 121.5 MHz signal is transmitted in addition to the higher frequency satellite signal. This 121.5 MHz homing signal aids rescuers in finding the device when they arrive at the rescue scene, which is particularly important if the beacon has drifted from its original location. The GlobalFix V6 EPIRB also emits both a visual and infrared strobe to help rescuers pinpoint the beacon and speed rescue operations.

Near Field Communication (NFC) Ensures the EPIRB is Functioning Properly

Using ACR’s free smartphone app and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, users can easily access EPIRB diagnostics. Placing a smartphone adjacent to the GlobalFix V6 EPIRB opens the ACR Product App, which shows EPIRB data. The app shows the current battery life of the beacon, the number of GNSS and self-tests completed, and the amount of time the EPIRB has been activated. 

Users can see detailed information on each self-test and GNSS test the device performs. GNSS tests include a map view demonstrating where previous tests were performed, the date and time of the tests, how long it took the EPIRB to get a fix on the GNSS coordinates, the number of satellites used to obtain that fix, and the fix’s accuracy. NFC allows users to routinely check the status of all EPIRB functions to ensure they are working properly and ready to go in case of an emergency.

Return Link Service (RLS)

Return Link Service indicates to the user that an EPIRB rescue transmission has been received. The RLS signal is sent back through the Galileo satellite network, confirming that the digital Mayday, including precise beacon location and identifiers, has been delivered. An easy-to-see flashing blue light indicates the EPIRB’s successful reception of the Return Link message through the Galileo satellite network. Those in distress who have triggered the beacon and received the RLS confirmation know that rescuers will be made aware of the EPIRB activation and location and that rescue operations will be launched.

ACR is a globally recognized leader in marine electronic rescue devices and other life-saving products. They build quality rescue equipment solutions like the new ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB that is suitable for all types and sizes of vessels in both the recreational and commercial sectors. 

Long life Lithium batteries, global 406 MHz satellite transmission, a 121.5 MHz homing signal, visual and infrared strobes, and a Return Link Service that tells users their rescue signal has been received are all packed into a durable waterproof beacon. Near-field communication and the free ACR App allow users to check the EPIRB status for added reliability. Mariners cruising coastal waters, working offshore, or crossing oceans will appreciate the advanced features of the GlobalFix V6 EPIRB.

I like better than the competition it is proprietary for Hummingbird but in a marine application this will stay connected better being threaded together than push in system like a regular eithernet connector like other manufacturers use

It was back ordered at My Green Outdoors with the option to be notified when it is back in stock. Literally a week later I got notified that it was in stock (they got 8) not sure how but I bought it right away. Shipping was prompt, so I’m extremely pleased with My Green Outdoors. I’m getting the motor installed in a week, but if it’s as good as the reviews I’ll be thrilled.

I mean holding us relatively steady in 30mph winds and my boat is not open, fully enclosed, heavy aluminum. It’s not perfect, there is an issue that you really have to dig around and find. I have 3 Odyssey Extreme’s 31m, they are aged at about 3 - 4 years… but they’re Odyssey’s and I don’t think you can get much better (talking deep cycle). The Kraken hates them. Every few minutes it tells me my batteries are dead. I could try charging them individually, it will still end up back to them not being exactly equal, the Kraken sees the differences between the batteries and then tells you that you’re low on juice. I’m not. You wouldn’t think, “no big deal” but it is and I will explain why. When the remote notifies you that your batteries are low, you can’t operate the motor until you accept that warning message. If you’re on auto pilot following a course, it won’t take you off of the course, so there is that, it’s not that bad. It’s just a nuisance being nagged and constantly having to accept that error message. Other than that, it’s amazing. The advanced features are very easy to use. A lot of of guys buy these nice bow mounts and head units like the Garmin but get lost in the process of operating them. I think Garmin has done away with that problem with the Kraken, it is super easy to use and understand You know what I was most impressed with? MyGreenOutdoors, you guys are amazing. Free shipping? Yep! Overnight at that. Maybe it was second day, regardless, you got it to me quicker than my local Cabela’s that’s an hour away and you’re on the other side of the country. The Communication, the effort, it has definitely made me a long time customer! Thank you very much
