Smart, Fast and Easy.
With the Ortovox 3+ you
are in command of the
situation.The Smart
Antenna technology
features automatic
antenna switching for the
the fastest finding time
possible. The 3+ is
extremely easy to use and
compact and light weight
too, coming complete
with a compact carry
bag/strap. PRODUCT
FEATURES You get better
found: The 3+ is a
three-antenna device with
a special extra function
to first enhance your own
safety. The intelligent
position recognition
system analyses the
position of the antennas
and automatically
switches to the optimal
transmitting antenna.
There is no longer any
such thing as the worst
position. You find
faster: The circular
display lets you focus on
the essentials. The
distance to and the
relative position of a
victim. Always align the
device to the arrow. The
solid arrow and the
central distance value
keep you going in the
right direction. You find
more exactly:The patented
circular display shows
you at a glance whether
you are getting closer to
the signal or moving away
from it. With the precise
distance value you can
very effectively
determine the distance to
the buried victim and
limit the area to be
probed. You find more
victims: The 3+ allows
you to maintain an
overview even with
multiple burials. The
number of victims is
shown in the display. As
soon as you have found
the first one you can
blend out their signal
with the pin key. The
victim is displayed as
pinned and you can
immediately continue with
your search. Safety
features:Smart antenna
technology enhances your
own safety. Signal
separation with pinning
function. Very easy
operation due to: clear
control elements,
precise real time display
with directional arrows
and circular display.
Rubberized housing for
protection and
ergonomics. Display
lighting for night
searches, switchover in
case of a follow-up
avalanche, clear and
optimized search
acoustics,
updateability. OUR
OPINION We are very
impressed with the 3+
which is why we are now
stocking it; It is very
compact and lightweight,
so is ideal for those
with smaller frames or
concerned about bulk when
in the back country or
off-piste. It offers
impressive but simple to
use functions too.

Tracker’s legendary
ease-of-use in a smaller
package. The Tracker3™
has Tracker2’s renowned
ease of use and
instantaneous real-time
display–and it’s 20
percent smaller and
lighter. T3 is the
thinnest multi-antenna
transceiver available.
Three antennas and
no-nonsense multiple
burial searching. One way
the Tracker 3
multiple-burial system
differs from other brands
is that it doesn’t look
at more than two signals
at a time. When there are
more than two signal
present, all
transceivers’ counting
and marking features
become exponentially
worse. When Tracker 3
counts and suppresses
signals, BCA want to
tell you the truth and no
more–misinformation can
turn your search into a
train wreck. The Tracker
will show an icon that
indicates whether you
have two or more than two
(2+) signals; it will not
count further than that
(you can do that yourself
with Big Picture mode).
Similarly, the Tracker3
will only suppress one
signal at a time, it
will not keep more than
one suppressed at a time
(if you’re suppressing
one signal, you’re in
a world of hurt; if
you’re suppressing more
than one, you’re
probably the first person
ever to do so). There is
an advanced manual that
covers advanced multiple
burial techniques using
the BP feature and video
too, if viewing this on
our website click on the
downloads tab above for
the standard manual AND
advanced user manual. New
Features Auto Revert Mode
- This mode can be
selected, and means that
the transceiver will
switch back to transmit
mode from search mode if
no movement is detected
after one minute Download
Updated Directly - The
Tracker 3 has a built in
USB mini port under the
battery flap, that
allows you to download
software updates directly
to your avalanche
transceiver so you always
have the latest version

Emulating analogue

spent a day getting to

the latest HATS (Henrys

impressive bit of kit (So
impressive I now own
one!) with the range
being the standout
difference between the
other transceivers on the

when down to 20 metres or
below, it was like a
bloodhound giving a very
clear and direct route to
the buried transceivers.

fully read the

The new S1+ combines the
success stories of two
unique transceiver
innovations: the display
of the relative location
of avalanche victims and
the
SMART-ANTENNA-TECHNOLOGY!
Handling the device is
more intuitive than ever.
Once switched on, it
transmits, but when
opened up it switches
straight to search mode.
The illuminated 360°
real-time display shows
the position in the
avalanche and gives
unmistakable action
instructions. As soon as
the person searching
begins the pinpoint
search, the patented
circular display and
intuitive search
acoustics help the
location process. Located
victims can now be
flagged and the search
can continue. Follow-up
avalanche switchover and
SMART-ANTENNA-TECHNOLOGY
provide a safety plus for
the user, while the
economic power management
protects the environment
and your wallet - just
two batteries are
sufficient for 250 hours
in transmission mode. Of
course the device can be
updated. BEST POSSIBLE
PROTECTION Transmission
mode Thereby the S1+
works incredibly easily
and intuitively! It is
turned on by the side
safety switch. A
standardized self-test
runs automatically. All 3
antennas are checked for
transmission and
receiving functions, as
well as for the battery
status and the sensor.
Then the device
immediately switches to
transmission mode. During
the transmission mode,
the transmitter is also
constantly monitored and
issues immediate
notification when there
is a malfunction.
Smart-Antenna-Technology
In the worst case of a
burial, how well and
quickly you will be found
by your companions
depends on your location
in the avalanche. This is
called a coupling
position. An axial
coupling position is
optimal - when your
transmitter has the
longest range. A vertical
position is bad, since
the range collapses by
about 52%. In this
situation, the S1+ uses
the patented
SMART-ANTENNA-TECHNOLOGY.
It analyzes the position
of the antennas and
automatically switches to
the best transmitting
antenna. The result: you
get 43% more range than
with all other devices on
the market (with the
exception of 3+),
entirely independent of
the search device of your
companion! Recco For
maximum protection, weve
also equipped the S1+
with a Recco reflector.
Recco helps professional
rescuers find victims
buried in the snow even
faster. The backup
technology is used by
more than 700 ski areas
and rescue teams around
the world. SIMPLICITY
Search mode An
avalanche is an absolute
stress situation, in
which holding your nerves
and focused action are
what that pays off. To
make the search situation
as simple as possible,
the S1+ need only be
flipped open in order to
enter the locating mode.
Neither keys nor buttons
need to be pressed -
simple snap open is
enough and the digital
device scans the
avalanche cone
automatically. The
large, illuminated 360°
real-time display gives
you detailed instructions
on what you have to do.
First, you will get the
prompt to go in a
meandering manner around
the avalanche cone,
until you receive an
initial signal. The
search strip width
amounts to 50 m for the
S1+. You will receive an
initial signal even at a
distance of 55 m to the
victim. The relative
position of the victim is
immediately indicated in
the display. Bearing
lines, direction arrow
and distance information
lead you along the
fastest route to the
strongest transmission
signal. From a distance
of 4 meters, you are
supported in the
detection by a patented
circular and trend
indicator as well as the
intuitive search
acoustics. Once youve
found the shortest
distance to the victim,
you can mark it. The
victim appears in the
display as located and
you can (in the case of a
multiple burial) continue
with the search. The
relative positions of up
to 4 buried victims are

switch between
transmission and search

Subsequent search
instructions are given on

focuses the person
searching on the large

the device. LEDs are used
to show the distance to
the victim, the
direction using arrows
and if there is more than
one victim. Large LEDs
are easy to read
especially in poor
visibility conditions and
at night. The visual

by intuitive search ac

are approaching the
avalanche victim.
Smart-Antenna Technology
The integrated

analyzes the position of
the antennas in the

Almost double the range
