DESCRIPTION
The SCOTT PAK-TRACKER LOCATOR SYSTEM is a
two part electronic system consisting of a Personal

responders, domestic preparedness and law enforce-
ment officers, as well as haz-mat and industrial users.
These instructions (SCOTT P/N 595101-01) pertain only

ing the Hand Held Receiver. Those instructions must be
used as the basis for training in use of the whole system.
They include an overview of the system operation and
limitations, as well as user level maintenance.
Training and practice in realistic emergency simulations
is required before use of this equipment. The users must
become thoroughly familiar with the operation and the
limitations of the system before entering a potentially haz-
ardous or life threatening situation.
