activation of group-check-function:
1. Turn on your PIEPS DSP PRO ICE
(Position SEND).
2. Wait until „CH" appears on the display
(CH = CHECK).
3. Press and continue to hold the
MARK button.
The group-check-function is active as long
as the MARK button is pressed. Release
the MARK button to exit the group-check-
function. After a countdown of three seconds,
your PIEPS DSP PRO ICE automatically turns
into the SEND mode. During the countdown,
the group-check-function can be reactivated.
The maximum range in group-check-mode is
one meter!
Conduct the „big" beacon-check as follows:
(1) receiving control
Group leader –SEND-mode: Device is sending?
All others – SEARCH-mode: Devices are receiving?
(2) Transmission control
Group leader – group-check-mode: Device is receiving?
All others –SEND-mode: Devices are sending?
TIP!
The receive control can be combined
with a range test in long distance.

Press the main switch lock and push the main switch to the
"SEND" position. The display indicates the SEND-symbol,
the remaining battery capacity, and the transmitting antenna.
Additionally an LED indicator light flashes simultaneous with the
transmitter bit timing.
When you are on a tour, make sure the "SEND"-mode is selected
throughout. The PIEPS DSP PRO ICE will transmit a continuously
defined signal (457kHz) that can be picked up from all other
avalanche beacons (according EN300718).
The Intelligent Transmitter – Maximum support in SEND-mode
In SEND-mode there are functions working in the background of PIEPS DSP PRO ICE that help
to be found faster and more efficiently in case of an emergency.
auto-antenna-Switch
If the transmitting antenna is negatively influenced through external devices (i.e. mobile phone),
the range of receiving beacons is directly influenced (reduction could be 30 % or greater).
The PiePs DsP PRo iCe is always transmitting with the strongest antenna for the
maximum range to the receiving beacon!
iproBE-Support
Beacons with iPROBE Support* will be automatically deactivated when probing with the
electronic probe PIEPS iPROBE. Signal overlap is eliminated and the next strongest signal
is automatically shown on the display of the receiving beacon. The PIEPS iPROBE supports
maximal in the case of a multiple burial. See also chapter „Multiple Burials".
The pIEpS iproBE Support gives the best solution for multiple burial situations!
*Beacons with iPROBE Support: PIEPS DSP PRO, PIEPS DSP PRO ICE, PIEPS DSP SPORT,
PIEPS DSP (with Software version 5.0 or greater), PIEPS DSP TOUR, PIEPS FREERIDE
