PIEPS DSP PRO Manual Guide

BATTERIES
The battery compartment is located on the backside of the housing. The safety screw connection
can be easily opened and closed using a coin. Only use battery type alkaline LR03/AAA and
always replace all 3 batteries with new ones of the same type. Never use rechargeable batteries
and always change all batteries at the same time!
The battery indication is based on measuring the actual battery voltage. Due to the temperature
inuence the actual battery voltage may vary. A change from cold (outdoor) to warm (mountain
hut) the battery capacity typically recovers.
IMPORTANT!
During a longer time of no use (e.g. summer) the batteries have to be removed from
the PIEPS DSP PRO/DSP SPORT. Damages because of leaked batteries are not included in the warranty.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and PIEPS Auto-Antenna-Switch:
All beacons are very sensitive against electrical and magnetic interferences. Due to this, it’s
a recommendation from all manufacturers that minimum distances should be maintained
between avalanche beacons and electronic, magnetic or metallic inuences (like radios,
mobile phones, MP3-players, bunch of keys)!
PIEPS recommends: Minimum distance in SEND-mode: 15 cm | SEARCH-mode: 50 cm
Your PIEPS DSP PRO/DSP SPORT has an Auto-Antenna-Switch included:
If there is an external inuence the strongest antenna will begin transmitting.
Further information can be found in the chapter “Intelligent Transmitter”.
