Step One: Power on your device
Turn your inReach Explorer on by holding down the Power button until the Power On screen displays. Press the Left Arrow and then Enter. The screen displays a welcome message and begins the setup process.
Follow the on-screen instructions to continue the setup process.
Step Two: Set up your airtime plan and Explore account
Your inReach Explorer requires a satellite airtime plan and an online Explore account to send and receive messages, much like a mobile phone plan Note: Your inReach Explorer GPS features will not work without a satellite airtime plan. The inReach uses Iridium s satellite network to track, share information, and send and receive messages. To choose your plan and set up your account, use the DeLorme Explore website:
Go online from your computer to explore.delorme.com and click Get Started then follow the instructions to create a new account.
The Explore website prompts you for your IMEI number and Authorization Code; find these in the Setup Wizard on the inReach Explorer device.
During the online account setup process, choose your inReach service plan, enter your payment information and contact details, and add your emergency contacts that will be used if your inReach Explorer is placed into SOS mode.
Add contacts to your device by selecting the Contacts tab.
Link your Twitter and Facebook accounts to share messages with your friends by selecting the Social tab.
Set up your MapShare web page to let others follow your trip and send you messages on your inReach Explorer by adjusting the MapShare options on the Social tab.
Create some commonly used text messages that are stored in your device, e.g. Busy, will reply later. Select the Messages tab and edit the Quick Text Messages.
Write special Preset Messages that you think you ll use often, e.g. Just arrived and doing well or Leaving now for my next destination. Select the Messages tab and edit the Preset Messages. Specify a group of recipients to whom you ll send regular updates in the form of Preset Messages.
Step Three: Check your connection
The inReach Explorer needs a clear satellite signal from the sky to complete the setup process. Go outside and stand in an open area away from tall buildings, roof overhangs, and trees.
When you set up your Explore account, DeLorme sent you a welcome message for testing your inReach. Your device receives this message during the activation process. When you have a clear view of the sky, press Enter to activate and receive your message.
The activation process could take up to 20 minutes. Activation of your inReach with the Iridium satellite network is a one-time step that uses a different process than standard inReach functions. Please be patient while your inReach communicates with the Iridium network for the first time.
To read your welcome message, select Messages from the device s home page and choose the new message from DeLorme.
Send a test reply to DeLorme. You are allowed five free test messages per month. Select Type Reply, and then type a message using the on-screen keyboard. Press Send. DeLorme sends you an automatic reply when your message is received.
Your inReach Explorer listens for waiting messages every 20 minutes by default. Select the Messages page and press Check Now to look for the reply from DeLorme.
Step One: Sync your inReach Explorer
After activating your inReach Explorer, set up the device with the information you will need while on your trip. On the Explore website, create your Contacts, Preset and Quick Text Messages, Waypoints, Routes, and set up your Social Media links. You can return to the Explore website at any time to change or update this information.
Step Two: Calibrate your digital compass
The inReach Explorer uses a digital compass to give accurate heading and bearing information whether you re stationary or moving. The device automatically checks compass calibration and tells you to calibrate when necessary. For best performance, calibrate your digital compass any time the device prompts you, or manually calibrate before a trip when you expect compass use to be important.
To manually calibrate the compass, go to Settings Compass Altimeter, and then choose Calibrate Compass. Rotate the inReach, turning all six sides of the device to the ground. Continue until the inReach beeps to report successful calibration.
Step Three: Calibrate your barometric altimeter
The inReach Explorer uses a barometric altimeter to give accurate elevation readings when you are climbing or descending. The device automatically calibrates the barometric altimeter using GPS elevation each time it is powered on. Auto calibrating with GPS elevation is best if you do not know the correct elevation or pressure for your location.
For best performance, manually calibrate your barometric altimeter when you can enter the atmospheric pressure from an accurate source like a local weather report. To manually calibrate the altimeter, go to Settings Compass Altimeter and choose Calibrate Altimeter. There are three methods to calibrate the altimeter:
Known Elevation – Enter the true elevation from a source such as a trail marker or a topographic map.
Known Pressure – Enter the atmospheric pressure from a current source such as a local weather report.
GPS Elevation – Use this option if you do not know the correct elevation or pressure.
Select a method and follow the on-screen instructions.
Note: Manually calibrating disables auto-calibration until the device is restarted. Changes in weather conditions can impact barometric altimeter readings, so consider enabling auto calibration when weather is likely to change.
While the inReach Explorer works as a stand-alone device, you have the option of using your inReach Explorer in conjunction with your mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet through a process called pairing. If you choose to pair your mobile device with your inReach, you will have increased functionality including mapping and access to your mobile device s Contacts list.
Step One: Download the Earthmate app to your mobile device
Download the free Earthmate app by visiting your mobile device s app store. The Earthmate app is available from the App StoreSM and Google Play.
Note: Your Android mobile device must have 2.2 or later firmware. Your Apple mobile device must have iOS 5.0 or later.
Step Two: Pair your inReach to your mobile device

When you return to the Social page, the social accounts you last selected will automatically be pre-selected. Remember that while you can post to your Facebook and Twitter accounts, replies to those posts will not be sent to you through the inReach.
Adjusting the Tracking Intervals
The default tracking interval for sending your location information to MapShare is 10 minutes. To change the tracking intervals, go to Settings Tracking.
Tip: Select Share after pressing Start Sending to send a Share message with a MapShare link at the start of your trip to let people know how to follow along.
Adjusting the tracking intervals on inReach is not required, but doing so can offer greater flexibility depending on your trip speed and desired level of trip detail. inReach automatically records and stores tracking data in a trip log in the device s memory, whether or not you choose to send your track points to MapShare. Therefore, inReach allows you to adjust two different tracking intervals a send interval and a log interval.
The send interval determines how often inReach transmits your tracking data to your MapShare page online. With most of our subscription plans, you can set inReach to transmit your location at intervals ranging from 10 minutes to 4 hours. DeLorme s Extreme subscription plan offers sending intervals as frequently as 2 minutes.
The log interval determines how often inReach records and stores tracking data in the device s memory. Data recorded at the log interval is NOT transmitted via satellite while you are in the field and it does not appear on your Mapshare page until you sync your device.
The default log interval when you are sending track points to your MapShare page is 1 minute. The default log interval when you are not sending track points is also 1 minute. Set your inReach to log your location on your device at intervals ranging from 1 second to 10 minutes. A shorter log interval gives a high level of detail but fills the device memory quickly and uses more battery power.
Tip: Upload your log data to your Explore account by syncing your device via your computer after your trip.
When you are Tracking, info fields appear showing your send and log intervals, how many points are waiting to be sent to Mapshare, and how long until your tracking log is full.
Tip: If you notice that several points have been queued for sending, ensure your inReach has a clear view of the sky.
When you stop moving, your inReach rests and stops sending and logging new tracking points at normal intervals until you start moving again. A track point is sent once every four hours even when stationary.
Tip: Clear the stored log on the Tracking page when starting a new trip to have full log capacity available.
Creating Waypoints
Mark important locations by creating Waypoints. Select Waypoints from the Home page of your inReach device. Choose New Waypoint or select the New Waypoint shortcut after pressing Enter twice on the Map page.
After creating the waypoint, edit the name, symbol, and location details to more easily reference it.
If you know the coordinates of your destination, mark the Waypoint ahead of time by creating a new Waypoint and then editing the Location field.
Tip: If your known coordinates do not match the current inReach Explorer coordinates format, change the format in Settings Units.
Waypoints you create during your trip are also sent to your Explore and MapShare web pages for others to see.
Navigating to a Destination
Select a Waypoint, Message, or other location you would like to travel toward and choose Navigate. The Map page appears showing your current position, your selected destination, and an orange-highlighted route connecting the two locations.
As you travel, a Finish field on the map reports the distance from your current location to your destination.
The Map page rotates to show your direction of travel at the top of the map. The page always defaults to show your position and your destination on the map when Navigating. If you zoom in or out, the Map page returns to its default view when you press Quit to exit zoom mode.
Tip: Change the map orientation and auto zoom options in Settings Map.
The Compass page shows Bearing and Distance information between your current location and the destination. A green arrow shows you how to stay on course as you move toward your finish.
Viewing the Map
The Map page shows your current location and your Tracking line along with any Messages or Track Points you have sent. Messages received from other inReach users appear on the Map page. Waypoints also appear on the Map page.
Press the Enter button to display shortcuts for zooming in or out.
Press the Up arrow to zoom in and the Down arrow to zoom out.
Press the Enter button again to display shortcuts for picking and marking a Waypoint.
Press the Up arrow to pick objects under the panned cursor location and press the Down arrow to mark a Waypoint.
When not zooming or picking/marking Waypoints, press the directional arrows to pan the map and place the cursor over objects. When you select an object on the map, a Details page appears for the selected point.
Press the Quit button to exit the controls for Pan, Zoom, or Pick/Mark Waypoint.
Using the Compass
The Compass page offers two modes that provide useful information when tracking without a destination or when navigating a route.
While Tracking: View your current speed, elevation, and heading with the Compass page along with a rotating compass graphic that shows your heading in relation to the cardinal compass points.
Speed – The current speed according to GPS readings.
Elevation – The elevation of the device, calculated using the Barometric Altimeter and/or GPS.
Heading – The direction your device is facing, based on the digital compass reading, expressed in both cardinal direction and degrees true or magnetic north.
While Navigating: View your destination, distance to finish, and bearing or course to the finish. A rotating compass graphic shows your heading, and a green arrow represents the bearing to your destination.
Waypoint – The name and symbol of the route destination.
Distance – The distance remaining from your current location to the finish.
Bearing/Course – The compass reading you must follow to arrive at your destination.
NOTE: The Bearing field changes to display the Course when the inReach Explorer is moving. The device gathers location information from the GPS rather than the digital compass when in motion.
Declaring an SOS
From the Home page, press SOS, then select Emergency, and then select Compose to view the SOS page. Type the details of your emergency or select an SOS Preset Message and press Send.
Tip: Unlock the SOS slider and hold the SOS button on the inReach Explorer to contact Emergency Response.
Your message is sent to Emergency Response along with details of your location. When they receive your message, they respond with an acknowledgement, which appears in the SOS page. Reply to this message to let Emergency Response know that you are capable of interacting with them during the rescue.
Your inReach sends an updated location report to Emergency Response every minute for the first 10 minutes of your SOS. To conserve battery power, location updates are subsequently sent every 10 minutes when moving and every 30 minutes when stationary.
If you decide that you no longer need assistance, cancel your SOS message by selecting Cancel from the SOS page or by holding down the SOS button. Your inReach needs to successfully transmit this cancel request and receive a confirmation from Emergency Response before it returns to normal operation.
Note: It is not possible to turn off your inReach Explorer when in SOS mode or when cancelling SOS mode.
While your device is in SOS mode, the Status Bar will be highlighted in red until you cancel the SOS.
If you chose to pair your inReach Explorer to a mobile device during the setup process, you can use the Earthmate app for increased functionality. The mobile device and the inReach must stay within Bluetooth range of each other to use the Earthmate app during your trip.
Tip: Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your mobile device s settings to ensure it is successfully paired with the inReach.
Download detailed topographic maps and NOAA nautical charts to use on your trip. Once downloaded, your maps are available through the Earthmate app throughout your trip.
Tip: Download maps prior to leaving for your trip. The Earthmate app requires either a wi-fi connection or cellular coverage for map downloads.
Use the Earthmate app on your mobile device to send and receive Messages or to start and stop Tracking via the inReach Explorer. All of your Messages and Tracking Points appear on your Earthmate app map showing your travel.
Tip: Send a message from your vehicle or select Start Tracking to mark your starting point on your Earthmate app map.
Messages sent using the Earthmate app or the inReach Explorer appear on both devices.Share a coordinate with someone else via a Message. Tap on the Earthmate app map to send a Reference Point with a coordinate for a location even if you aren t currently at that location. For example: Meet me here in four hours.
NOTE: An Earthmate app update is currently in development to bring the same Waypoint, Tracking, and Routes features found in the inReach Explorer to your mobile device.
Sync your Explore account with your inReach Explorer device to share information between your Explore account and device. When you sync your device with the Explore site, the information you entered online like Facebook, Twitter, Preset Messages, Waypoints and Routes push to your device.
Use your Explore account to create new Contacts, customize your Preset Messages and Quick Text Messages, and connect to Facebook and Twitter. Afterward, connect your inReach device to your computer using the USB cord and then click on Sync tab of the Explore website.
Firmware Update
The Explore web site will occasionally notify you when firmware updates are available. To update your firmware, connect your inReach device to your computer using the USB cable and then click on Sync tab of the Explore website.
Do not unplug the inReach Explorer from your computer during updates. Do not shut down or unplug your computer during updates.
Some helpful tips to remember:
You must choose a satellite airtime plan and create an Explore account online at explore.delorme.com before you can begin using your device.
Your inReach must be outside with a clear view of the sky to send and receive Messages or to Track your location.
You don t need to pair your inReach with a mobile device to use it as a standalone device, but you must pair it in order to use inReach with the Earthmate app.
If you choose to pair your inReach with your mobile device, they must be within Bluetooth range 32 feet or less of each other.
To reset your inReach device, simultaneously press X and the Down arrow for 10 seconds. Your device will turn off. Power it back on to continue using it.
Your inReach has a Help function built in. Select Help from the main menu and search for solutions to common questions.
