Signal K MOB notifier plugin
This plugin detects if Signal K has seen an AIS MOB (MMSI starting with 972
), EPIRB (MMSI starting with 974
), or SART (MMSI starting with 970
) beacon. If a beacon is detected, a Signal K notification will be raised. With the notification there are various ways to alert the crew:
- Audio with plugins like signalk-audio-notifications and an attached speaker
- Meshtastic message with signalk-meshtastic
- Visual with apps like Freeboard
Please note that this plugin aims to aid with noticing and locating crew overboard. It is not a replacement for "proper" alerting mechanisms via dedicated alert buzzers, chartplotters, or a VHF radio.
