New for this year, the Ortovox S1 is the world’s first sensor-controlled avalanche victim scanner. The S1 has the ability to simultaneously scan all signals found in the avalanche area and locates several buried persons. The large, illuminated display shows the relative position and the distance to the buried persons, calculated by analysing the flux line. Signal analysis clearly isolates signals making it possible to locate each of the single transmitters.
The S1 works on the world-wide standardized frequency and is compatible with all standardized avalanche transceivers available on the market working on this frequency - Ortovox, Barryvox, BCA, Pieps, etc.
Beyond the sensor-controlled search capability, the S1 also offers additional functions including:
Electronic compass - Make sure you don't get lost!
Temperature information - Avalanches risk is higher at certain temperatures, be prepared.
Measurement of inclination - The steepness of the terrain governs the risk.
Safety ‘switch-back’ to transmit - The S1 has an automatic safety switch-back, in which the device automatically switches back from any operating mode to transmit mode after a certain (user defined) time in order to be set on transmit mode in case of a second avalanche.
