Signal Mate Flush Mount Horn & Light Signal Controller

Signaling, during restricted visibility, can be difficult to maintain every two minutes, and it is hard to remember the correct sequence required by the United States Coast Guard (USCG). Radar, chart plotters and AIS units are valuable tools, but they do not fulfill what is required by the USCG and IMO 72 COLREGS for sound signaling during restricted visibility.

The automated Signal Mate Flush Mount Controller provides the required USCG sound and light signals for a vessel during restricted visibility or emergency situations.

Signal Mate has an automated horn and anchor light signaling controller.

Automated – Signaling (sequences and intervals). Just push a button.

Dedicated – VHF hailer type radio cannot transmit while signaling.

Hands free – Allows attention to be focused on the chart plotter, radar, personnel and operation of the vessel while maintaining required signaling.

Synchronized – Light and horn to be seen and heard. The horn gives the general direction, and the light pinpoints the vessel’s position.

Features:

• Designed to produce signals specifically required by U.S. Coast Guard rules and regulations
• Sound signals include vessel appropriate fog signals, Danger/Doubt signal and the Distress sound signal (continuous horn or SOS), or manual horn
• Light signals include standard repeating SOS, the Inland Distress of 50 to 70 flashes per minute continuously, or anchor light
• Push-button operation for easy selection of specific signals used for restricted visibility, danger / doubt, in need of assistance, or distress (inland and international)
• Light or horn can be operated independently or synchronized (USCG rule 36)
• (3) modes of operation: manual, automated, or simply on / off
