Notes on programming:

AIS MOB transmitters are pre-programmed with an MMSI, which is made up of the serial number, and do not need to be programmed by us before dispatch.

If the AIS MOB transmitter also has a DSC function, you can enter the MMSI number into the device yourself.
Small, light MOB device that is attached to the mouth inflation valve of the automatic lifejacket. The device works with AIS and the DSC function (VHF radio) is already activated for deliveries to Germany. The device triggers MOB alarms in both systems.
The MOB1 is intended to be installed within the life-jacket and will activate automatically on inflation, sending the first alert within 15 seconds.

Note
The Ocean Signal PLB3 is triggered manually using a button, which is protected against false triggering by a corresponding cap. Automatic activation is only possible with a compatible life jacket and adapter (included). Please observe the instructions in the operating manual of the controller.
The powerful, strobe-light makes the device highly visible in all weather conditions.
Once activated your MOB1 will transmit an alert to all AIS receivers and AIS enabled plotters in the vicinity (up to 5 nautical miles, depending on weather conditions). The integrated GPS ensures precise location is sent to your vessel and any others that may be assisting.
In addition, the MOB1 activates a DSC alarm on your on-board radio.
*The DSC function depends on the regulations of the respective countries.

DSC number programming:
You can easily programme the MMSI of your VHF marine radio station for the DSC Relay yourself via the corresponding link for your country https://www.oceansignal.com/installers/
Basic programming of the AIS MOB1 is not necessary, as these are already programmed by default -> 972xxxyyy

Will no longer comply with regulations from January 2025. Can you continue to use it or do you have to convert to MOB2?
I have three, one in each life jacket, because when you are on single watch at night the MOB alarm is automatically triggered on the radio.

Additional rescue equipment
I use the watch as an additional rescue tool in coastal areas. Seems to me to be a very handy addition to traditional rescue tools.

Unfortunately I don't know whether there can be a test run - that would be very nice - it provides security in the event of an emergency.
