The Return Link Service (RLS) uses the unique functionality of the Galileo satellite system to confirm the distress signal and PLB location have been received after the beacon has been activated. When the Galileo system receives an alert and the Galileo GNSS location coordinates have been detected, the Return Link Services transmits a signal back to the beacon activating the small blue flashing confirmation light. A valuable reassurance that the emergency services have been notified and have received the beacon location.

The Fast Find Return Link features the latest advanced technology packed into a simple, lightweight, palm sized unit, smaller than a mobile phone. A personal distress beacon requires no subscription and provides a direct method of alerting the search and rescue authorities when no other forms of communication are available.
