Initiating an MOB Procedure from an MOB Tag Manually
If a passenger falls overboard who is not wearing an MOB tag, or if you want to initiate a Man Overboard (MOB) procedure without waiting for a tag to become out of range of the GOS™ 10 hub, you can manually trigger the effect directly from any MOB tag connected to the Garmin OnBoard™ engine cutoff system.
Press the large MOB button on the face of a
connected MOB tag.
NOTE:
On a tag with the Captain role, you can hold the MOB button for at least
two seconds to initiate a MOB function that also kills the engine or
engines.
The Garmin OnBoard system creates a Man Overboard (MOB) waypoint on the chartplotter at the location where the button was pressed and prompts you begin navigating to the waypoint. An SOS script appears that can be used to make a VHF distress call, and you see the location of the MOB waypoint on the chart and dismiss it if necessary.
