ACR ResQLink View 435 RLS PLB with GPS Digital Display and HWilco Pouch

Small but resilient, the ResQLink View RLS has been professionally engineered and tested to ensure it can withstand even the harshest elements. This buoyant Personal Locator Beacon requires no subscription for use, boasts a digital display providing live status and GPS coordinates, and includes the new Return Link Service (RLS) feature. Beacons with RLS provide confirmation to the user that their beacon’s emergency distress message has been received and that their location has been detected.

RLS works by sending a signal back through the Cospas Sarsat satellite network to confirm to the beacon user that the distress message from a beacon has been received and their location has been detected. User confirmation is distinctly indicated by a flashing blue light and a corresponding confirmation message on the digital display.

With three levels of integrated signal technology – GPS positioning, a powerful 406 MHz signal, and 121.5 MHz homing capability – the ResQLink View RLS quickly and accurately relays your position to a worldwide network of search and rescue satellites. Additionally, a built-in strobe and infrared strobe facilitate nighttime, or other low visibility, rescues. Whether on land, at sea, or in the air, trust that the ResQLink’s satellite precision and military durability, puts rescue in the palm of your hands.

Wherever your adventure takes you, whether it’s a trip to the highest mountain peaks, the most undiscovered terrain, or the vastest of oceans, rest assured that the ResQLink View RLS always activates easily. Simply deploy the antenna, press the on button, and the beacon will provide you with confirmation when your distress message has been received and your location detected, while also effortlessly guiding rescuers to within 100 meters or less of your position. Enjoy added peace of mind using the integrated digital display to view live beacon status and GPS coordinates throughout the rescue process.

Due to innovative design elements, multifunction clips can be used in conjunction with the beacon, providing numerous wearability options that address a variety of usage applications. The increased ease of incorporating the ResQLink View on your person, or with your gear, just made all your adventures not just safer, but more convenient too.

While maintaining the same reliability and rugged durability as its predecessors, the ResQLink View RLS is also built for comfort. Enjoy the comfort in knowing that your distress message has been received and your location detected. As a leader in life-saving products for both professional and recreational use, ACR provides unparalleled safety and peace of mind with the ResQLink View RLS Personal Locator Beacon.

SkippersMate Tip...

*Make sure the antenna is pointing towards the sky, out of the water. PLB will not work submerged in water. While the unit is waterproof, it must be above the water’s surface to function properly. Intended operational environments include on ground, above ground, and held in hand. In all cases, the PLB must be facing skyward with the antenna perpendicular.
