A 20-second countdown screen will appear. If at any time during the countdown your situation has changed,
press X (Quit) to cancel the SOS message. When SOS is active, the inReach will begin tracking and sending your
location. You will not be able to stop the inReach from tracking.
Upon receiving a new SOS, Tracertrak will send a message back to your device confirming a system receipt of
the message. You will also receive a message when a user in the Tracertrak system acknowledges or ends the
SOS alarm.

SOS Cancel

When the SOS situation has been resolved, either through appropriate emergency response or a change of
conditions, an 'SOS Cancel' needs to be performed to return the inReach to normal operation. Failure to do so,
may result in triggering a new SOS alarm on Tracertrak if the original alarm is 'Ended' while the inReach is still in
"SOS IN PROGRESS" mode.
There are multiple ways to cancel an active SOS:
From the home screen, select SOS and press Enter. Navigate across to the 'Cancel SOS' button and press Enter,
select Yes and press Enter again.
Press and hold the SOS button for five seconds. Select Yes at the Warning screen.
"SOS CANCELLING" will be displayed until the SOS Cancel message has been sent. The inReach must be outside
with a clear view of the sky to ensure that the SOS Cancel message is delivered to Tracertrak.
If the inReach is unable to send the SOS Cancel message straight away, it may queue additional SOS Cancel
messages depending on the amount of time that it is unable to connect to the satellite network. Once a network
connection is acquired, any buffered messages will be delivered.
