ACR&Artex ResQLink PLB - Manual (Page 11)

Turning off the beacon
To deactivate your beacon; depress the ON/OFF button
for more than 3 seconds. Once the beacon is deactivated,
all blinking LED lights will stop, signifying that the beacon
is no longer sending your distress message.
If deactivation should fail, try again before removing the 2
screws holding the unit together and unplugging the
battery to disable the unit. Return the beacon to ACR
Electronics for service.
NOTE: Leave beacon on until rescued. Turning beacon off
will prolong or prevent rescue. Repeated activations could
be viewed as a hoax.

5. Turning Your Beacon Off
Post Rescue Follow Up
Hopefully you are never put in the situation
where you have to activate your beacon to be
rescued, however, should you activate your
beacon in an emergency that requires Search
and Rescue assistance, please contact ACR
Electronics in the days that follow.
It is important for us to learn the nature of
your emergency, how the beacon performed
so that we can continue to build the world’s
best life saving equipment.
Real life activations and how people use our
beacons in these situations plays a major role
in designing and manufacturing our products.
We also like to share these rescues with
others in an effort to promote proper use of
Personal Locator Beacons.
