Product Information

The Ortovox Patroller Digital is a fully digital, triple antenna avalanche beacon, with a multiple burial indicator. It has a search range of up to 40 meters and is especially easy to use. The Patroller Digital is the perfect avalanche beacon for any beginner caught in an avalanche rescue situation. A powerful microprocessor enables the Ortovox Patroller Digital to make full use of its triple antenna technology and relay its results quickly and precisely to the user. The Patroller Digital's signals are displayed as both units of distance (meters) and as directional arrows. Distance readings are displayed by 2 numeric LED's. Directional readings by way of three easy to read LED arrows. Both sets of digital displays are easy to read even under poor weather conditions and the pressures of an avalanche rescue. The triple antenna technology works no matter what orientation the victim's beacon is situated. The Patroller Digital operates on the world-wide standardized frequency of 457 kHz and is compatible with all beacons that work on the same frequency. It requires two easily available AA batteries to work. Effective use of a transceiver requires proper training and continuous practice. Always wear your transceiver next to your body under outer clothing. Carefully read the owners manual included with this transceiver. Always take a shovel and a probe when traveling in avalanche terrain and never travel alone.
