🔍 Key Concepts

• Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) function and purpose • How survivors know when a SART is actively responding to a ship’s radar • Difference between SART alerts and battery / equipment status indicators

💭 Think About

• Think about what event would be important enough to notify survivors with an audible tone, rather than just a light or indicator on the unit. • Which of these answer choices relates directly to a SART doing its main job in an emergency, and which relate more to maintenance or other communication systems? • Ask yourself when survivors most need to be alerted so they can look for and possibly visually signal the assisting vessel.

✅ Before You Answer

• Review what triggers a SART response when a searching ship’s radar sweeps over it. • Check whether a SART is designed to monitor battery condition with an audible alarm, or if that is typically checked during testing instead. • Confirm that DSC (Digital Selective Calling) alerts are handled by GMDSS radios, and not by the SART device itself.
