30 Using the inReach with an iOS Mobile Device | DeLorme inReach User Manual
Your location will be sent to search and rescue as follows:
• First ten minutes, every sixty seconds
• Ten minutes to one hour, every ten minutes
• One hour to eight hours, every 15 minutes
• Eight hours to 24 hours, every 60 minutes
After the rst ten minutes, if you are stationary, your location is sent every thirty minutes; the transmission rate is
slowed to preserve battery life. If you don’t need to move for safety reasons, stay where you are to preserve battery
life and to make it easier for search and rescue to locate you.
You can monitor the SOS on the Tracking page. From there you can also cancel the SOS or go back to the conversation
thread. The tracking points and messages are also visible on the map.
Note If you do not have a clear view of the sky, the SOS messages will be stored and then sent as soon as you have a
good signal.
LEDs
• The SOS LED ashes green while the SOS is in progress.
• The Signal LED ashes green when messages are being sent; it will ash red when you do not have a good signal
(see page 8 for more information).
• The Message LED ashes green while any SOS message (including a cancellation message) is being sent. See
page 7 for more information.
Handing off SOS
When your mobile device and inReach are connected, you can start the SOS using the Earthmate app and then power
off the mobile device to save battery life—the inReach will send the SOS in standalone mode. No SOS tracking points
or messages will be recorded in the Earthmate app when it is powered off, but both will be visible on explore.delorme.
com. If you connect the devices again, queued messages and up to the last 30 tracking points are downloaded to the
Earthmate app.
Alternatively, if you start SOS on the inReach and then open the Earthmate app, you can monitor SOS tracking and
send and receive messages from search and rescue.
To send an SOS message
1. Make sure your inReach is powered on and connected to the Earthmate app.
2. Tap SOS and then tap This is an emergency.
3. If possible, type a message providing details about your emergency. If you cannot type a message, the default
message will be sent. You can also send a predened Quick Text message that you synced from explore.delorme.
com.
