If the self-test detects a fault in the EPIRB module, the test indicator LED will start flashing at
the end of the test. For fault codes see the table in the Table 5-2.
Note that the extended self-test can only be performed 60 times. After that the self-test will
indicate “maximum number of extended self-tests exceeded”.
