WEATHERDOCK easyONE/easy2-MOB refit kit

The Ocean Signal AIS Alarm ensures that any AIS MOB or AIS SART activation immediately triggers an 87 dB audible alarm.Thanks to its simple design, compact housing and NMEA-0183 connection, the AIS Alarm can be quickly connected to an existing NMEA-0183 network or to an AIS receiver.Up to 30 device IDs of AIS SARTs (974ff) or AIS MOBs (972ff) can be stored (USB cable, free software). This allows an alarm to be assigned precisely. The internal relay allows the AIS alarm to be connected to an external siren or to the ignition of the engine for automatic shutdown.The AIS Alarm from Ocean Signal is waterproof and can be installed outdoors. The power supply is 12 V (10.8 V - 15.6 V DC).Flush or bracket mountingWaterproof (for outdoor installation)Programmable with up to 30 individual device IDsNMEA-0183 input (38,400 baud)Power and USB cable includedProgramming software available online free of chargeRecognizes AIS SART and AIS MOB devicesDifferent tones for recognizing the stored devicesAlarms for all received or specific targetsNMEA input and output (pass-through port) for easy integration into the network

The Ocean Signal rescueME MOB2 is currently the smallest AIS MOB transmitter on the market that complies with the standard for AIS Man Over Board devices (AIS MOB standard IEC63269:2022) and has been certified accordingly . The standard (ECDIS 63269 IEC 2022) from January 1, 2021 states that all AIS MOB devices with DSC (Digital Selective Calling) must also have a DSC receiver. In addition, all automatic mechanisms must be able to be switched off. The sale of AIS MOB devices that do not comply with this standard is prohibited.The MOB2 can be easily integrated into any automatic lifejacket and is automatically activated when the lifejacket is deployed. The first alarm is sent after 15 seconds. The integrated dual LED flash light (white and infrared) ensures that the person who has fallen overboard is clearly visible even at night.Immediately after activating the MOB2, a DSC alarm sounds on your own ship - if you have previously stored the MMSI of the radio in the emergency transmitter. This programming is possible with an NFC (Near Field Communication) compatible smartphone and the free app. The app also offers a GPS test, a self-test and the option to check the maintenance intervals. The AIS signal provides the exact GPS position on AIS-compatible chart plotters that are within VHF range of the transmitter. The "person overboard" is displayed accordingly.Technical data:Frequencies: 161.975/162.025 (AIS), 156.525 (DSC)Battery life: > 24 hours at -20° COperating temperature: -20° C - +55° CWeight: 92 gDimensions: 134 mm x 38 mm x 27 mm (H x W x D)Standards and approvals: RTCM SC11901, EN303 098-1 AIS (Automatic Identification System)Integrated DSC transceiver (Digital Selective Call)*Class M (European regulation ECC/DEC/(22)02)The LED indicates whether the DSC alarm has been receivedEasy attachment to the automatic lifejacketAutomatic activation when the lifejacket is inflated5 year battery life> 12 hours operating timeNFC (Near Field Communication)5 year warranty66-channel GPS receiver (GPS and Galileo)Waterproof up to 20 m* The use and function of DSC is subject to the legislation of the respective country.

Personal emergency transmitter that can be worn in its neoprene pocket in the lifejacket or on the oilskin. The sMRT ALERT MOB can be activated both manually and fully automatically (by contact with water). Once activated, the DSC distress signal is sent automatically to alert nearby vessels to the person who has gone overboard. The activation of the MOB and the transmission of the DSC signal are indicated by an acoustic signal and a strong flashing of the strobe LED. The position of the MOB is transmitted in real time via AIS. GPS and Galileo signals are combined for this purpose.As soon as the DSC distress call is received by a ship, a confirmation is sent to the MOB. The DSC alarm is then deactivated for all other ships. The position of the MOB is still transmitted via AIS.In the event of a false alarm, there is a delete option to cancel false activations.Technical featuresFrequencies: 161.975/162.025 (AIS) 156.525 (DSC channel 70)Battery runtime: > 12 hours at -20 °COperating temperature: -20 to 55 °CDimensions: (L x W x H) 137 mm x 62 mm x 26 mmWeight: 212 gStandards and approvals: RTCM SC11901.1, EN303 132 V2.1.1The sMRT Alert complies with the standard for AIS Man Over Board devices (AIS MOB standard IEC63269:2022) and is certified accordingly.

Accessories for WEATHERDOCK easyONE/easy2-MOB emergency transmitters.The refit kit (B113) consists of a 3 mm Allen key and two release tablets for the automatic release mechanism in the emergency transmitter. This allows your easyONE or easy2-MOB to be made ready for use again after contact with water.The tablet for automatic release must be replaced after contact with water. In order to ensure functionality at all times, it should also be replaced at least once a year as it ages.The holder (B126) ensures that the easy2-MOB or easyONE-MOB is always ready to hand on board.The red holder made of impact-resistant plastic with a gripping part made of rubber-like, flexible plastic can be screwed to the companionway or the chart table, for example, so that the emergency transmitter can be reached quickly in an emergency and is not forgotten. The holder is weatherproof and can be screwed or glued on depending on the surface. Dimensions: 8 x 8 x 3.5 cm.

Accessories for WEATHERDOCK easyRESCUE AIS-SART / MOB distress beacon.The neoprene pocket (B066) holds an easyRescue AIS-SART / MOB. It can be fastened around the arm with a Velcro fastener, for example, to keep the emergency transmitter within easy reach.The stick-on pocket (B114) is required to add an easyRescue AIS-SART / MOB to an automatic lifejacket (which is not prepared for this). The pocket ensures that the AIS-SART is optimally aligned to transmit properly after the lifejacket has been inflated.

The easy2-MOB from the German manufacturer Weatherdock is a small man overboard beacon (MOB) with DSC and AIS alerting.The easy2-MOB was developed for recreational boating, but is also used by the Spanish customs and border police Servicio de Vigilancia Aduanera, for example. The technology is the same as in the easyRESCUE AIS-SART, except for the slightly lower transmission power, which means that MED/SOLAS approval is not required.The easy2-MOB is simply packed "upside down" between the folded float of the automatic lifejacket and knotted to a loop or D-ring of the vest using the safety line. The outer shell only needs to be opened slightly for this. No special attachment is required, which means that the MOB can be used in all standard lifejackets. To activate the automatic release, the yellow slider is pushed to the "armed" position.Using a Bluetooth connection, up to eight MMSI numbers (of your own ship and of ships sailing in the same area) can be stored in the device using a smartphone and the free Weatherdock app (iOS11, Android6 or higher). The app also offers a test and alarm history with date, time and position.In a person-overboard situation, the lifejacket inflates on contact with the water. The easy2-MOB floats next to the swimmer and is activated automatically (manual activation is also possible). After a few seconds, the first transmission is made to the ships whose MMSI is programmed in. The unit ID of the AIS-MOB is transmitted first, as the device has not yet determined a position. In this "close loop" step, the crews of the programmed ships are made aware of the dangerous situation. As soon as the position has been determined, they are informed again.Parallel to the DSC transmission, an AIS distress message is sent as soon as the position has been determined. This can be received by any ship with an AIS receiver within a radius of up to 7 nautical miles. The transmitted position data is updated every minute and resent together with information on course and speed over ground.If the "closed loop distress call" is not acknowledged by one of the programmed ships within ten minutes of the alarm being raised, the easy2-MOB automatically switches to the "open loop distress call" and sends a distress signal to all ships. This allows the distress call to reach a coastal station and trigger a rescue operation there. The easy2-MOB can receive confirmation of the distress call, which leads to further DSC transmissions being switched off.Six powerful red LEDs ensure that the MOB can also be used as an electronic torch. This makes it much easier to find the person in the water, especially at night.

The release tablet in the MOB should also be replaced at least once a year.

MED / SOLAS approval.The easyRESCUE family from the German manufacturer WEATHERDOCK may bear the designation AIS-SART (Search and Rescue Transmitter). The world's only AIS distress transmitters with MED / SOLAS approval have a higher transmission power than a MOB (man overboard beacon), namely >2 W for AIS, >0.5 W for DSC distress calls and 50 mW for the 121.5 MHz direction finding signal. This means that their signals can be received up to ten nautical miles away.The housing of the devices is extremely robust and reliable. They can withstand multiple impacts on the water surface from a height of 20 meters, can cope with enormous temperature fluctuations and still function at temperatures below -20 °C.The small AIS-SART updates the position of the person in distress every 60 seconds and sends the AIS messages 1 (position report - dynamic data) and 14 (safety-related message). The activated AIS-SART is displayed with a red cross in a circle (the symbol according to IEC62288) on the chart plotters of vessels within a radius of up to ten nautical miles (over 20 nm with a high AIS receiving antenna).On the PRO models, the DSC distress call is initially sent in a "closed loop" to up to 8 vessels whose MMSI numbers have been programmed in advance using the free Weatherdock app via Bluetooth. If there is no confirmation within ten minutes, the system automatically switches to the "open loop" and an "all ships call" is sent to the GMDSS rescue chain as an official distress call.There are five different easyRESCUE AIS-SART models, which differ in how they are triggered (manually, by water contact, by ripcord and magnetic switch) and which frequencies (AIS, DSC, 121.5 MHz homing) they use for alerting (see table). The easyRESCUE A040-BW-COM is used by the German, Dutch and other navies as well as by the Special Forces Command (KSK) of the German Armed Forces.The easyRESCUE A040-PRO (BT) model is used by German and Dutch rescue organizations as well as by offshore wind farm personnel.The easyRESCUE PRO3 was developed for demanding sailors as an alternative to the PLB (Personal Locator Beacon, Cospas/Sarsat). In addition to alerting via AIS and DSC, a 121.5 MHz signal is transmitted. Older SAR helicopters are still in use over the North Sea and Baltic Sea, which do not have an on-board AIS and therefore prefer this "homing" frequency for locating a person in the water. The easyRESCUE PRO3 is the first choice, especially for sailors who are on the move on different yachts , because the problem of a vessel's MMSI being stored in the PLB is eliminated.Explosion-proof "ATEX" versions of the easyRESCUE AIS-SARTs are available especially for use on oil platforms, jetties and LNG ships. A version especially for divers is also available. Please ask us about this if required.Technical featuresAIS Seach-and-Rescue Transmitter (more powerful MOB with MED / SOLAS approval)96 h transmission time after activation at -20°C (longer at higher temperatures)Triggering function (depending on model): manual, by water contact, by ripcord and magnetic contactIndividual identification number of the deviceTransmission range up to 10 nm (depending on wave height and receiving antenna height)Transmission power >2 W for AIS, >0.5 W for DSC distress call and 50 mW for the 121.5 MHz direction finding signalIntegrated, fast GPS receiverBattery life >10 years (without commissioning, only self-tests).

This ensures that the device's antenna is in an upright position when the person who has fallen overboard is floating in the water with the lifejacket. The lifejacket manufacturers Secumar (models Scout, Survival, Alpha), Mullion, Besto and Viking have automatic lifejackets that are prepared to accommodate an easyRESCUE AIS-SART.For use in automatic vests from other manufacturers such as Kadematic, Lade, ISP, etc., the stick-on pocket (item no. 3921-114) isrequired as an accessory. Only in this pocket is the antenna of the easyRESCUE optimally aligned for transmitting the emergency signal. You can find the bag under "Accessories & spare parts".For use as an AIS-SART in the life raft , we recommend attaching the neoprene bag (item no. 3921-066) to a telescopic pole to increase the antenna height. An inexpensive telescopic boat hook (item no. 3221-161) is suitable for this purpose, see "Accessories & spare parts".
