1. Description and operation 
1.1. General description 
1.1.1. Characteristics 
KANNAD Auto, Manual+, Manual are distress beacons with a TCXO oscillator, a super flash led, a 


flexible monopole antenna, an intelligent PCB less greedy in energy. They transmit on 406.028 MHz 
and 121.5 MHz frequencies. They are buoyant in operation and watertight up to 1 bar. They are 
designed to be tied to a liferaft or any buoyant object. 


Approvals 
e COSPAS-SARSAT certificate N°162. 
e Wheelmark BV0062 (Auto and Manual+) and R&TTE 0191 (Manual). 
1.1.2. Versions

1.2. Description of container and mounting bracket 
1.2.1. Automatic container 


The KANNAD Auto, Float Free version (Category 1), is supplied in an automatic container (1). This 
container is designed to protect the beacon and to ensure its automatic release in the event of a ship 
wreck thanks to the HAMMAR H20 release system (2). This container is also fitted with a locking 
system (3) to open it manually. 


lt is mounted either in horizontal position on the wheel house or deck of the vessel, or in vertical 
position against a bulkhead or any vertical flat surface and clear area. 


Figure 2: KANNAD AUTO, description of automatic container 





Note: a magnet located in the bottom of the container inhibits the water switch sensor of the 
beacon avoiding any accidental activation due to moisture or water presence. 


List of components 

Automatic container (1): P/N 5104620 

Hydrostatic release system including H20, axe and nut (2): P/N 5103555 
Manual locking system and tether (3): P/N 5102004 

Opening the container 

Automatic opening 


The release system uses the hydrostatic pressure effect. At a depth of 1.5 m to 4m (4 to 12 ft.), the 
release system operates and cuts the locking axis. The cover is released to enable the beacon to rise 
to the surface. The beacon is automatically activated as soon as submerged in water and out of its 
container. 


Manual opening 


It is possible to open the container manually by opening the manual locking system (A). Remove the 
beacon from its container (B) and activate it (C) manually (ON pushbutton) or automatically (D) (throw 
the beacon overboard). 


Figure 3: Float Free EPIRB, manual opening and activation 





Important: Clean salt апа / or moisture as soon as the beacon is extracted from its container (risk of 
activation).

1.2.2. Wall mounting bracket 
A wall mounting bracket is supplied with the KANNAD Manual and Manual+. 


This mounting bracket is fitted with a strap used to avoid an inadvertent ejection of the beacon. It is 
designed to be mounted vertically against a bulkhead or any vertical flat surface. 


Figure 4: KANNAD 406 Manual+ & Manual, mounting bracket description

Remove the beacon from the bracket (A), to activate beacon: 
* either manually by pressing ON pushbutton (B) for KANNAD Manual+ and Manual; 


e or automatically by throwing overboard (С) if fitted with a water switch sensor (KANNAD Manual+ 
only).

(2) The buzzer transmits an audible signal every second. 
(3) Check that control lamp blinks: 


The test lasts 23 or 26 seconds according to version. 
- The test sequence starts as follows: 
* GPS Version 


White flash / 1sec / Red led + White flash / 2 sec / White flash / 2sec / White flash / 6 sec / 
Red led / Red led. 


• Non GPS Version 


White flash / 1sec / Red led + White flash / 2 sec / White flash / 6 sec / Red led / Red led. 
- Then the test result is displayed as follows: 


Red led, 1 blinking every 2 seconds indicates good operation. 


Red led, 2 blinkings every 2 seconds indicates faulty operation.

1.4. Programming 
KANNAD AUTO, Manual+ and Manual beacons are programmed with a unique ID code (MMSI, radio call 
sign or serial number). 


KANNAD AUTO, Manual+ and Manual beacons are encoded with a PKR programming kit working under 
Windows (WinProg software) without opening the beacon. The code is entered inside the beacon memory 
with an optical pen placed over the beacon control lamp. 


This programming kit has been specially designed by KANNAD for all the KANNAD 406 EPIRBs. 
Refer to Winprog software for programming procedure.

Release device positioning 
Before positioning the new release device, mark replacement date (replacement every 2 years). 





e Pre-position Hammar release device: 
- insert the tongue (A) of the cover into the groove (B) of the Hammar release device; 





- insert the well (C) of the release device into the hole (D) fitted on the cover. 
Use a screwdriver to perform this task: insert the blade of the screwdriver into the hole of the 
cover and the well of the release device. Use the screwdriver as a lever by pulling on the 
handle.

IMPORTANT: check that the rubber washer (C) is still on the screw. 





- Gently screw the first nylon nut (D) onto the severable axis (A) until it comes into contact 
with the release device. 





Position the upper cover above the lower housing to check that the severable axis can be 
inserted into the notch of the lower housing. 





If necessary turn the severable axis so that it can be inserted into the notch then, using a 
torque wrench, tighten the nut (torque = 0.8 N/m). 


Screw the nylon counter nut (E) on the severable axis (A), then using a torque wrench, 
tighten the counter nut (torque = 0.8 N/m) while holding the first nut with a wrench. 





- Disengage the upper cover from the lower housing.

3.1.3. Container closing 
CAUTION: Before closing the container, check that all information regarding the labelling of the 
beacon and the update of the manual (date of next release system replacement) are 
recorded. 
Tip before installing the beacon 


To install the beacon into the container, the blade on the ejection side (1) must be kept down. Using 
a cylindrical rod of 7mm diameter and 150mm minimum length will help this handling.

3.2.1. Container 
Open the container (for KANNAD 406 AUTO and AUTO GPS only), See § 3.1.1. Container opening. 


Important: before extracting the beacon, check there are neither salt nor moisture on the 
water switch sensor. Clean if necessary (risk of activation). 


3.2.2. Receiving Inspection 
3.2.2.1. Visual inspection 
Ensure the housing, upper cover and locking nut are free from cracks or other visible damages. 


Check of firmware: for a GPS beacon, on the traceability label located below the beacon check that 
the amendment of the beacon is higher or equal to D. If lower than D, contact KANNAD customer 


support ([email protected] or Tel. +33 (0)2 97 02 49 00). 
3.2.2.2. Control of programming 


Check the programming data of the beacon and print the coding sheet (KANNAD Winprog). 
If necessary, re-program the beacon and update. 
3.2.2.3. Functional control out of Faraday box 


IMPORTANT: should these controls not be carried out in the Faraday box, they should not last 
more than 40 seconds to avoid the transmission of a distress message towards 
the satellites. 


Control of ON / OFF pushbutton 
(1) Activate the beacon by pressing 1 second the ON pushbutton: 


- During 20 seconds, check that the led and the flash flicker as described paragraph 1.3.2.3. 
Manual activation. 


(2) Stop the beacon by pressing the TEST / Ready pushbutton. 
- Check that the flickering stops immediately. 
Control of TEST pushbutton 
* Press the TEST / Ready pushbutton: 
- Check that the led and the flash operate as described paragraph 1.3.2.2. Self-test. 





Control of water switch sensor, beacon out of container (Auto and Manual+ versions only) 


The purpose of the water switch sensor is to activate the beacon as soon as submerged and out of 
container. Because of lapping or waves movement, the water switch sensor can sometimes be out 
of water during a few seconds. When the beacon is activated by the water switch sensor, 10 seconds 
lapse time is applied to avoid that the transmission stops as soon as it is out of the water. 


The purpose of this test is to check: 

e activation by water switch sensor; 

e temporizing of water switch sensor. 

IMPORTANT: do not press ON pushbutton. 

e Short circuit during 10 seconds the water switch sensor (about 10 buzzer's beeps) then remove it:

e Connect the Faraday box to the tester with a coaxial cable. 
e Put the beacon into the Faraday box. 
e Activate the beacon (See § 1.3.2.3. Manual activation). 


e Check that the beacon operates (flash, led and chrono): see Figure 9 : Manual activation by ON 
pushbutton. 


e Close the Faraday box. 
e Check the code transmitted by the beacon and received by the tester. 


IMPORTANT: Only the first 406 transmission is a test transmission (19! digits encoded FF ЕЕ 
00), the next ones are real distress transmissions (1“Ч digits encoded FF FE 2Е). 


e Wait for the second transmission and check that = 50 seconds separate the second and the third 
406 MHz transmission, check the 121.5 MHz presence.
