Description
This PLB also features a second frequency that can be used for testing or training purposes. Transmission of a dedicated ID and simple control of system and maintenance data by means of an IrDA interface are important benefits for operators of larger fleets. Autotest functions and status reports are announced by the system’s speaker to guarantee high availability.
