Digital/analog combo avalanche transceiver with three antennas. The new Mammut Barryvox® S has a large receiving bandwidth and an effective search strip width of 70 meters. It offers users a large, simple interface and intuitive operation.
The Smart Search function provides clear instructions thanks to a simple operating concept and quick, precise searching (seriously - it's awesome). The Smart Search function interacts with the actions of searching rescuers - is it time to run and do a coarse search? Get down to the ground? The little guy on the screen will do it and tell you exactly what to do - a huge help with things are tense.
The Barryvox® S includes the Rescue SEND function to protect non-searching rescuers. In the event of a secondary avalanche, the device automatically switches to SEND in order to locate buried rescuers.

- Lithium-enabled: also works with lithium batteries: Less risk of leakage. More stable in low temperatures. Longer battery life (350 hours SEND, followed by 1 hour SEARCH)
- Display: display with background lighting, very easy to read even when wearing polarized glasses Acoustic search guidance: allows the rescuer to visually search the avalanche field Reverse direction function to avoid 180-degree search errors Group test with clear instructions
- Visual interface: shows distance, direction and number of buried subjects
- Design: ergonomic, impact-proof and break-proof. Can be operated while wearing gloves
- Device tests: automatic self-test, frequency check and function test Smart search interacts with rescuer`s action during the search, making searching simpler and more reliable
- Multiple buried subjects: digital signal processing in the event of several buried subjects Buried subjects can be selected from a list, marked (MARK) and unmarked (UNMARK) Automatic switching from send to search (Auto Revert): if a rescuer does not move for 4 minutes, we assume a secondary avalanche and the device switches to SEND mode (motion-sensor controlled)
- Rescue SEND: Protective function for non-searching rescuers. In the event of a secondary avalanche, it automatically switches to SEND to allow the rescuer to be located
- Auto guidance: device continues to guide the rescuer to the buried subject in the event of signal failures or overlaps
- Vital data: 3D sensor helps the rescuer concentrate his or her resources on the buried subjects with the highest chance of survival
- Advanced search settings: individually configurable search settings: pro search, acoustic and visual guidance; automatic switching from search to send (Auto Revert) Alternative search mode (analog mode) helps in resolving demanding search scenarios
- Personalization: start screen and user texts (for example, owner information) can be personalized
- Attachment: includes highly functional Barryvox carrying system
- W-Link: Additional communication channel for improved search performance Manage the device fleet via W-Link updatable software
- Operating temperature: -25° to +45° Celsius (-13° to +113° Fahrenheit)
Asking yourself if you should get the Mammut Barryvox or the Mammut Barryvox S? Here are some of the key differences:
- Larger Screen (2.2" vs. 2"): easier to see & read, even with the lighting is bad.
- Dynamic Screen Icons: the icons move as the searcher does, indicating exactly what the searcher should be doing (i.e. Is the icon running? The searcher should be doing a quick coarse search. Is it crawling? Time for a pinpoint search).
- Smart Search: though the user never sees this feature, it operates in the background and makes searching more efficient than ever even if the searcher is less than perfect.
- Auto Guidance: no more signal overlap from other transceivers. No more stop stand still. Just a one-track path to the buried victim.
- Lithium Batteries: the Barryvox S can utilize Lithium batteries or alkaline batteries. Lithium batteries last longer, are lighter and don't damage with acid corrosion.
