1. Ensure a maximum of 6 OLAS transmitters are being tracked. More than 6 OLAS transmitters within range will cause false alarms. If required, the addition of the OLAS Core or Guardian allows tracking of up to 15 OLAS transmitters.

5. Walk to the location where the Tag previously set off the alarm and then continue walking around the vessel.

6. If a false alarm sounds again, if possible, check the ACR
OLAS system using an alternative mobile device and see if the same outcome occurs.

7. If false alarms sound on both mobile devices, if possible, check using a different ACR OLAS transmitter.

8. If false alarms continue, we advise using an OLAS Core which will increase the range of the system up to a 50 ft vessel, track up to 15 OLAS transmitters, and reduce the Alert Delay to 3 seconds. The Core is compatible with your existing ACR OLAS transmitter(s).
