SafeTrx Active Sicherheitsuhr

Ja, um SafeTrx Active derzeit zu nutzen, musst du sowohl die SafeTrx mSafety Watch von Sony kaufen als auch ein laufendes Abonnement abschließen, das Daten, Rettung und SafeTrx-Dienste abdeckt. Wir könnten in der Zukunft zusätzliche Wearables einführen, aber zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt ist die mSafety das einzige Gerät, das den sehr speziellen Sicherheits- und Leistungsanforderungen von SafeTrx entspricht.

In general, SafeTrx Active is targeted more at open water sports where a smartphone may be difficult to operate and the user can benefit from a wrist worn solution.

SafeTrx Maritime is a more detailed application that is suited to users on a boat where the environment is suited to carrying a phone and they have more time to submit details and manage their trip. For both solutions, the unique partnership with SafeTrx means that emergency alerts are sent directly to the rescue organisation's monitoring console.

The main differences between SafeTrx Active and SafeTrx Maritime are as follows:

Operating Platforms
The SafeTrx Active application operates on the dedicated mSafety wearable from Sony and can be purchased online direct from SafeTrx by clicking here. The SafeTrx Maritime application operates on Apple and Android Smartphones and must be downloaded from the App and Play Stores.

Range Using the LTE CAT M1 networks long range capabilities, the SafeTrx Active application on the mSafety wearable can receive a cellular signal where the SafeTrx Maritime application on a Smartphone cannot.

Feature Set
There are features available on the SafeTrx Active wearable such as Strava integration that are not available on SafeTrx Maritime. Likewise, SafeTrx Maritime offers number of tracking options and features such as nautical maps, weather, local VHF channels and group tracking that are not available on SafeTrx Active.

SafeTrx Active has been launched first in countries where we already have a SafeTrx presence and where there are existing arrangements with rescue services. We are also dependent on the technical infrastructure of the network carriers in countries to support the SafeTrx Active Watch. We launched in the Netherlands, where we have a long standing relationship with the KNRM and the Dutch Coastguard and Norway in cooperation with our partner RS. In Germany we work with "Die Seenotretter". In these countries, we offer full integration to the rescue services.We hope to expand the country list as we expand our SafeTrx family and the network capabilities become available. Additionally, we intend rolling out to other countries, where we do not have partnered rescue organisations but the network capabilities do exist, offering just the SafeTrx buddy to buddy alerting system, which still offers great benefits to the user. The first country we launch with this format is Switzerland where the solution can provide added security for all outdoor sports.

Die SafeTrx Active Uhr unterscheidet sich deutlich von anderen Smartwatches. SafeTrx Active ist eine spezielle Such- und Rettungsuhr mit eingebauten Sicherheitsfunktionen, die Hilfe bieten, wenn du sie am dringendsten benötigst, einschließlich direkter Verbindung zu nationalen Rettungskoordinierungszentren.

Most other consumer smartwatches, such as the Apple Watch, use normal LTE band for cellular connectivity. The mSafety from Sony uses LTE-M which is a better communication technology for small wearable devices.

Yes, the SafeTrx Watch is certified to IP68, an international standard rating which covers usage to withstand dust, dirt and sand, and resistant to submersion up to a maximum depth of 1.5m underwater for up to thirty minutes.

Note that the SafeTrx Watch cannot receive GPS location data while underwater but we have seen the mSafety connect to cellular networks while underwater. If you have started an alert or assistance request while at sea, it is still recommended to try and keep your arm out of the water to maximise the chances of getting a good signal and good GPS location. The software on the watch expects this to happen. By constantly tracking in real time, we improve the opportunity for the watch to receive location data and transmit it when you arm is above the water.

Zusätzlich verwendet die Uhr eine Technologie namens LTE-M, die sich von der Standard-LTE-Technologie unterscheidet, die von Handys und anderen vernetzten Uhren verwendet wird. Diese Technologie ist speziell für Geräte konzipiert, die eine lange Akkulaufzeit benötigen oder an Orten eingesetzt werden, die mit normaler LTE-Technologie schwer zu erreichen sind, da sie eine größere Reichweite und Durchdringung bietet.

No, you do not need a phone to use your mSafety. Unlike other watches, because it is always connected, you do not need a phone to use your mSafety at all.

You may carry out your initial account setup on your phone, but this can just as easily be done on any PC or laptop. You can also look at your previous activities on a phone or desktop.

Es besteht jedoch keine Anforderung, deine Uhr mit deinem Telefon zu koppeln, und du kannst dein Telefon am Ufer oder sogar zu Hause lassen, wenn du mit deiner mSafety ausgehst. Du musst nicht einmal Aktivitäten mit deinem Telefon synchronisieren oder diese hochladen, sie werden automatisch aus der SafeTrx Cloud abgerufen.

The SafeTrx Active mSafety is a dedicated search and rescue watch with built in direct connectivity to the national rescue coordination centre and is not a sportswatch. 

SafeTrx Active allows you to record and share your activities in real time which many sportswatches cannot do. Using SafeTrx Active will allow the search and rescue authorities find you quickly if you get into trouble.

Many of the features on a standard smart watch would actually be detrimental to the primary function of SafeTrx Active.  SafeTrx Active is focused primarily on safety and support for the rescue services in emergency situation, meaning that we prioritise battery length and location services over other typical smart watch functions.

In passive or standby mode it should last for several days. When in activity tracking, assistance or alerting mode, the device will be carrying out per second tracking with network communications every minute, which will significantly reduce the battery life. It will typically last approximately 7 hours in one of the tracking modes.

We'd love to be able to make the mSafety purchase a one off cost, as we know it isn't cheap and our users have a lot of other equipment costs. However the ability to provide an always connected, live tracking and emergency alerting device and the life saving services that support it is dependent on a number of services that bear an ongoing cost.

The mSafety device is always connected to the LTE-M cellular network, which is why it is able to send your live data and emergency alerts at any time. This is similar to your mobile phone and the data contracts that you would be familiar with.

Ohne diese Verbindung, die in allen Abonnementplänen enthalten ist, kann mSafety keine seiner Funktionen ausführen.

The subscription fee is required to cover the following: Network connectivity and data costs that are paid to network providers to support "always on" connectivity and roaming.

Contributions made to any affiliated rescue organisation who will receive a portion of every subscription payment. Hardware and software costs associated with providing the SafeTrx cloud and services platform.

Während die Kosten für die SafeTrx-Plattform in allen Ländern konstant sind, können der Beitrag zur Rettungsorganisation und die Netzwerkgebühren je nach Land variieren, was zu unterschiedlichen Abonnementkosten führt.
