(KNVIR-15) Phoenix 1.5 Encodable Beacon NSN: 5855-01-396-8734 MPN: 902212IR
Simple, ultra rugged personnel, equipment and/or area marker

     The PHOENIX 1.5 IS A PROGRAMMABLE BEACON. It is used as a covert marker and signaling device where precise identification of personnel, equipment and locations is needed. Users can easily install unique signals for individual identification. Signal is input by using a coin or any metal object to close the gap between the two pins on top of the beacon. Removing the battery deletes the stored code.
 
An internal six (6) second memory will accept a field installed flash (Morse Code-like) signal that the operator programs via the two programming pins. Miniature indicator lights within the device will flash the pattern as it is being recorded by the user to confirm the code being stored. During operation, the user can reactivate the miniature indicator lights at anytime allowing the operator to confirm the broadcast code in situations where their own night vision equipment has become lost or damaged.

SPECIAL FORCES OFTEN RENDEZVOUS WITH INDIGENOUS FORCES AT NIGHT. These rendezvous are generally preplanned and usually done without benefit of radio or voice communications. Preplanned codes, transmitted by the covert  Phoenix 1.5 Beacon allow for precise identification of the friendly forces.

The PHOENIX 1.5 IS A USER PROGRAMMABLE BEACON. With a coin or similar metallic device, the user can tap in a Morse Code-like signal up to six-seconds in length. Subminiature light emitting diodes (LED) inside the beacon indicate the code as it is installed and  tell when the memory is full. These same LED's provide confirmation of both operation and the installed code. To confirm operation, short and hold the two pins while observing the LED's. They will repeat the operating code.

OPERATING TIPS
For a steady beam output, hold the shorting device for six seconds.
For maximum duration cache marking, quick tap the pins only once.
The beacon will emit a single flash every six seconds for weeks.

Size: 1.24” x 0.9” x 0.574" | 31mm x 22.5mm x 14.6mm
Flash Repeat Cycle: 6 Seconds
Flash Duration: Programmable
Battery: Common 9 volt
Configuration: 3 Light Emitting Diodes (LED), 880nm

Operating depth: The Poseidon — Phoenix / Pegasus Mounting Clip (902801) provides a water tight casing for the beacon and battery assembly. If immersed without the Poseidon case, the unit will continue to operate until the contacts fail due to water and electrolytic corrosion. Given these conditions the depth limitation is solely determined by the battery’s ability to withstand depth.
