The ACR ResQLink View PLB is a compact, subscription-free Personal Locator Beacon that provides life-saving emergency communications anywhere in the world. Featuring an integrated digital display, it offers clear confirmation of GPS acquisition, battery status, and beacon activation, giving you added confidence in an emergency. With global Cospas-Sarsat satellite coverage, a powerful 406 MHz distress signal, 121.5 MHz homing beacon, and rugged waterproof construction, the ResQLink View is trusted by hikers, sailors, climbers, and outdoor professionals who need reliable emergency protection beyond the reach of mobile networks.

The ACR ResQLink View is a compact, subscription-free personal locator beacon designed to provide an essential lifeline during serious emergencies in remote or offshore locations.

Built for hikers, sailors, climbers, expedition teams and outdoor professionals, the ResQLink View can transmit your distress alert and location to the international search and rescue satellite system when mobile coverage and other communication networks are unavailable.

Emergency Reassurance Wherever You Travel

When activated, the ResQLink View transmits a powerful emergency signal alongside your location data, helping search and rescue teams identify your position and coordinate an appropriate response.

The integrated digital screen provides clear information throughout the activation process, allowing you to monitor the beacon’s status and confirm that it is operating as intended. This added visibility can offer valuable reassurance during a stressful emergency situation.

Compact, Buoyant and Ready for Adventure

Smaller and lighter than previous ResQLink models, the ResQLink View is easy to carry without adding unnecessary bulk to your equipment. Its inherently buoyant construction makes it particularly well suited to sailing, kayaking, watersports and other marine applications.

The included attachment options allow the beacon to be secured to clothing, backpacks, lifejackets or other essential equipment, keeping it within easy reach when it matters most.

Designed for Reliable Search and Rescue Support

The ResQLink View combines satellite distress alerting, location positioning and local homing technology to help rescue services locate you as accurately and efficiently as possible.

Visible and infrared strobe lighting can also assist rescuers during darkness, poor weather or low-visibility conditions, making the beacon suitable for use across a wide range of challenging environments.

No Ongoing Subscription Required

Unlike many satellite communication devices, the ACR ResQLink View does not require a monthly or annual service plan. Once purchased and correctly registered, it can remain part of your emergency equipment without ongoing subscription charges.

The long-life internal battery is designed for extended storage and emergency operation. Routine self-testing allows you to check the beacon’s electronics and positioning functionality, helping ensure it remains ready for use.

Programming & Registering Your ResQLink View

Programming Your PLB

All PLBs supplied by GTC are programmed with the UK country code as standard and can be used worldwide.

If you require your ResQLink View to be programmed for registration in another country, please contact us before ordering or dispatch.

Important Safety Information

The ResQLink View should only be activated in situations of grave and imminent danger to life. False alerts can divert Search & Rescue resources and deliberate misuse may result in penalties.

PLBs do not operate underwater. If you intend to carry your beacon deeper than its specified waterproof rating, it must be protected in a suitable waterproof canister.

Register Your ResQLink

Your PLB should be registered after purchase. Registration links your beacon's unique HEX ID to you and your emergency contacts, giving Search & Rescue authorities important information if it is ever activated.

You'll find the 15-character HEX ID on the beacon and its packaging.
