IMPROVED TRACKING SERVICES:

SPOT Gen3's custom tracking service will allow you to change how often your location is sent to 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes when you access one of the new Unlimited Tracking or Extreme Tracking services.

MOTION ACTIVATED TRACKING:

A vibration sensor tells SPOT to send your GPS location when you're moving and not when you're stationary. In this way, you can save battery and avoid sending coordinates twice.

CONTINUOUS MONITORING:

With the new Unlimited Tracking or Extreme Tracking services, SPOT Gen3 will continue to send tracking messages until you turn off SPOT. You do not need to restart after 24 hours.

FUNCTIONS:

SOS

Use this function in the event of a dangerous situation or any other emergency to inform the emergency services of your exact location and the need for assistance. The GEOS Emergency Response Center will alert the appropriate agencies around the world. For example, you will contact 9-1-1 recipients in North America and 1-1-2 recipients in Europe.

How does it work:

Once activated, SPOT will obtain your exact coordinates from the GPS network and send that data along with a message to the GEOS International Emergency Center every five minutes until cancelled. This emergency center responds to your specific emergency based on your location and personal information. -which may include local police, highway patrol, coast guard, the country's embassy or consulate or other rescue teams. In addition, your emergency contacts will also be informed of the receipt of said emergency signal.

Important:
