JW Fishers SFP-1 User Manual

CAUTIONS:
Do not allow the Pinger to be exposed to excessive heat by leav-
ing it in direct sunlight or inside of a closed vehicle on a hot day.
Excessive heat can damage the electronics and/or destroy the wa-
terproof seals.
The Pingers signal originates from the transducer (black end) at
the end of the pinger. The transducer should be kept clean (soap and
water) and protected from damage. The two screw-heads, visible at
the end of the transducer, should be keep free of debris. When water
touches the two screw-heads, the pinger turns on (if the pinger is in
water turn-on mode).
Always test pingers and pinger receivers on land or in shallow
water before deploying in open water. Pingers do not broadcast sig-
nals very far through the air; however, they can be detected 5 to 10
feet away by a pinger receiver (a “clicking” noise can also be heard
from the transducer.)
Before deploying a pinger, write down the pinger frequency for fu-
ture reference (when you want to find it, you need to know the fre-
quency.)
Before deploying a pinger in the water, be sure the electronics and
seals are pushed into the pinger housing. To do this, push the end of
the black transducer in the direction of the housing. Screw the cap
snug, but do not overtighten.
Before swimming in the direction of a received pinger signal, al-
ways double-check other directions to insure that this direction is
producing the strongest signal, and that it’s not a reflected signal
(see pages 5 and 6 of this manual.)
When storing the pinger for more than a few weeks, the batteries
should be removed from the pinger.
