5/ INTERFERENCE
Certain electronic devices as well as electrical and electro-
magnetic installations can significantly interfere with trans-
ceiver signals.
These sources are:
• Carried: smart phones, radios, cameras, heart rate mon-
itors, GPS, etc.
• Permanent: relay towers, power lines / electricity generat-
ing equipment, ski lifts.
In order to reduce the risk of signal deterioration, we recom-
mend that you keep your transceiver as far as possible from
sources of electrical and electromagnetic activity.

5.1/ RECOMMENDATIONS IN SEARCH MODE

Move all metallic and electronic devices at least 50cm away
from your transceiver.
When conducting a search, we recommend turning off all
electronic devices except analog radios, headlamps with-
out an automatic regulator, watches that do not have a
radio feature, and backup transceivers in the event of a sec-
14
ondary avalanche. Turn off all telephones and digital radios
during an active search. All telephone calls should be made
at least 25m from the people conducting the active search.

5.2/ RECOMMENDATIONS IN TRANSMIT MODE

Move all metallic and electronic devices at least 20cm away
from your transceiver.
5.3/ ACTIVE INTERFERENCE MANAGEMENT
With the huge increase in the use of wearable electronic
devices, the potential has increased for electromagnetic
interference of the search signal. These incidences have
primarily been observed near ski areas. Active interference
management is a default setting on the EVO5, allowing your
device to detect interference zones and, if necessary, re-
duce the search strip width. The user can then adapt their
search strategy accordingly.
