GLOBALFIX™ iPRO
406 MHz GPS EPIRB //
with Dual GPS Technology //
Innovative Digital Display
The all new GlobalFix™ iPRO Emergency Position
Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) is the next
generation in marine safety electronics. The
GlobalFix™ iPRO is a breakthrough product that
boasts a digital display and dual GPS technology.
GlobalFix™ iPRO sports a digital display that allows
you to see all of the beacon’s operational activities.
The screen displays GPS LAT/LON, operating
instructions, usage tips, transmission bursts as
well as battery power. iPRO makes self-testing your
beacon simple and easy to understand with the
digital display visually walking you through the self
test step by step, no more relying on listening to
beeps and LEDs.
The GlobalFix™ iPRO is also the first EPIRB that
offers Dual GPS Technology. Interface your iPRO
to your onboard GPS to ensure that your LAT/LON is
stored inside so the coordinates are transmitted in
the first data burst. iPRO’s internal GPS is optimized
for cold starts and is tested and refined at ACR’s
GPS Simulation Center so that it will pin-point your
exact location faster than standard GPS enabled
EPIRBs.
