The latest in transceiver technology, the Ortovox S1 sensor-controlled transceiver displays real time visual information for quick, simple searching.

  • Electromagnetic sensors map victims' locations and depths in relation to the searcher on the LCD screen
  • Display information is adjusted in real time according to the movement of the transceiver
  • Transceiver provides information for up to four transmitters, including search direction and distance from the searcher
  • Switching from transmitting mode to search mode is as simple as pushing a button to open the clamshell device
  • Upon reaching a victim, the searcher can mark the found victim and immediately set out for other burials by simply following the visual data
  • Marking victims forces the transceiver to stop receiving the marked signal and focus on any remaining signals
  • Once within 3m of the victim, S1 switches to pinpoint search mode, featuring a new, patented circle-interpretation visual for fast results
  • Selectable functions include temperature, slope angle, digital compass and burial depth
  • Compatible with all standardized avalanche beacons operating on the 457 kHz frequency
  • S1 automatically switches back to transmit mode from all other modes after a user-defined amount of time
  • Auto switch-back provides safety should a second avalanche occur
  • Includes a shoulder strap for proper transportation
  • Operates on three AAA alkaline batteries, included
  • Be sure to read the included instruction manual for important information regarding the use of this device
