sMRT AU10 Overview
This user manual provides all the information required to operate and test the
sMRT AU10 Maritime Survivor Locating Devices. The sMRT AU10 is a dual-
operation Personal Locating Device transmitting on the 121.5 MHz search
and rescue (SAR) frequency, while simultaneously transmitting GPS
position coordinates on AIS channels AIS1 and AIS2.
sMRT AU10 Activation
When armed, the sMRT AU10 is designed to automatically activate in
an emergency when immersed in water. There is an AUTO
ACTIVATION WATER SENSOR sensor on the top and bottom of the
unit. If the unit is continuously immersed in salt or fresh water it will
'awaken' and auto-activate. A predetermined 2 second delay period
prevents device activation caused by spray, rain and splashing.
The sMRT AU10 can also be manually activated by pressing the round
rubber ACTIVATION BUTTON on the front of the device when armed.
The design of the ARMING SWITCH, in conjunction with the unit's
RUBBER O-RING, prevents the device from being accidentally activated
while being carried or in transit.
