SPOT2 Satellite GPS Messenger Tracker
The SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger provides a vital line of communication with friends and family when you want it, and emergency assistance when you need it, even when you are beyond mobile phone coverage.
Using 100% satellite technology, SPOT works virtually anywhere in the world – all with the push of a button.
SOS/911: Use this function in the event of a life-threatening or other critical emergency to notify emergency services of your GPS location and that you need assistance. The GEOS International Emergency Response Center alerts all the appropriate agencies worldwide – for example contacting 9-1-1 responders in North America, 1-1-2 responders in Europe.
Help: In the event of a non life-threatening emergency, you can use this function to notify your personal contacts that you need assistance. Additional SPOT Assist services can be purchased and programmed to your Help button as well.
When activated with SPOT Assist, the Help button will notify professional services either on land or water. SPOT has partnered with national service providers to offer non life-threatening assistance.
Check-in/OK: This feature allows you to let your friends and family know that all is OK with a pre-programmed message along with your GPS location. With a push of a button, a message is sent via email or SMS to up to 10 pre-determined contacts and your waypoint is stored in your SPOT account for later reference. Your stored waypoints can be easily integrated into a SPOT Shared Page or SPOT Adventure account.
Custom Message: This feature allows you to let your friends and family receive a custom message along with your GPS location with a push of a button. Use this feature as a secondary OK message or transfer your personal help alert to this message function if you are using a SPOT Assist service on your Help button.
Track Progress: This feature allows you to send and save your location and allows contacts to track your progress in near real time using Google Maps.
With your SPOT account you have the ability to set up a SPOT Shared Page which allows you to show your SPOT GPS locations to others on a Google Map.
Power: To turn SPOT on, simply press and hold the On/Off button until the button blinks green. SPOT performs a self-diagnostic test. When power is on, the button will blink green every 3 seconds. This is also helpful for making SPOT more visible in the dark. To turn SPOT off, press and hold the On/Off button until the light stops blinking.
See Coverage Map to satisfy yourself SPOT function is available for the areas where you would want to use it:
Self Test: SPOT performs a self-test when you initially turn on your unit. If all visible lights flash red, the SPOT self-test has found a failure and will not send a message. If the On/Off light, GPS light and Message Sending light all blink red, SPOT has a GPS failure but SPOT may still be able to transmit an SOS or HELP message without your GPS location.
