Getting Started
Welcome
The DeLorme® inReach™ two-way satellite GPS communicator keeps you in reach wherever you go.
Use the inReach with the DeLorme Earthmate® PN-60w to take full advantage of all the PN-60w has to offer—with the

emergency, you’ll always be in reach.
Use the inReach alone to send your location to explore.delorme.com and send predefined messages to your contacts, or
send an SOS in an emergency.

Batteries

inReach.

Set up Your inReach Account
Create an account and activate the
DeLorme inReach
Before you start using the inReach, you must set up an
account at explore.delorme.com. During the account
setup process, you will choose your inReach service
plan, add information for your emergency and other
contacts, and create three predefined messages so you
can use the inReach in standalone mode. You can add
multiple devices and users to the same account.
Click the Help link at the top of explore.delorme.com for

manuals.
If you will be using the inReach with an Earthmate PN60w, see Using the inReach with a PN-60w for
information about syncing your account info with your
device. See the Help on explore.delorme.com for more
information.
Satellite Reception
The inReach needs a clear view of the sky to acquire a
GPS fix and transmit your messages over the Iridium®
satellite network. This process should take less than
one minute, but it could take more time if the line of
sight is obstructed.
