Mounting the inReach Tracker
The InReach SE Tracker uses the Iridium satellite system, and as such needs to be able to see the sky - both for acquiring
a GPS fix and transmitting positions.
PLEASE INSTALL YOUR TRACKER AND TURN ON BEFORE YOU DEPART YOUR HOME PORT
•
The InReach unit does NOT interfere with other electronic equipment
•
Ensure that the InReach is mounted with the antenna towards the sky
•
Ensure that the InReach has a good view of the sky
•
DO NOT place the InReach where it may be ʻgrabbedʼ
and broken in heavy seas
•
DO NOT place the InReach under metal covers or inside a vessel
•
Make sure the tracker pouch is securely wrapped up to prevent water from getting to the unit.
Once mounted, turn the tracker on, go to the tracker site and confirm you can see your boat being tracked. If you have
problems with seeing it being tracked, please call the Race Director immediately.
