Avalanche Transceiver (DVA) -
The Focus Voice avalanche transceiver from Ortovox is a high-quality model offering numerous options for rescuing and being rescued during your mountain outings.
Designed to maximise speed and efficiency during critical search phases, this Avalanche Victim Detector (DVA) features an ultra-readable dynamic display system thanks to its 2.7-inch full-graphic MIP screen (400 × 240 pixels). Search accuracy is enhanced by the automatic 180° correction.
On the safety and transmission side, the Focus Pro relies on the patented Smart Antenna technology which optimises transmission range to be located faster by rescuers, allowing a search bandwidth ranging from 80 m (standard ICAR AVA REC 0007) up to 90 m with a circular reception zone. The DVA also includes intelligent protection features thanks to its automatic switching modes in case of a secondary avalanche. In both standby and search modes, the transmission signal is temporarily cut to preserve battery life and avoid interference with the frequencies of rescuers currently searching, but it automatically switches to transmit mode after 2 minutes of no movement. Coupled with a permanent self-test and active filtering against magnetic and electronic interference (both in transmit and search modes), the device offers exceptional reliability in the field.
In terms of ergonomics and professional features, the Focus Pro marks a major advance thanks to its patented voice guidance. By broadcasting concise, clear, and targeted instructions (available in German, French, English, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Czech, and Dutch), it allows you to devote all your energy to the rescue. The group check (Group Check) lets you test your devices and those of your companions before departure.
The device also integrates a complete connected ecosystem: thanks to Bluetooth® and the mobile app available on iOS and Android, you can easily access customised DVA configuration, firmware updates, and simplified fleet management. In terms of hardware and construction, this DVA features a compact and robust design built to withstand the most extreme conditions. Presented in a 12 × 7 × 2.3 cm format, it comes with an ergonomic quick-access carrying harness. Its Lithium-ion battery withstands negative temperatures down to -20 °C and is rechargeable directly via a USB-C port. The device also meets the EN 300718 waterproof standard, ensuring maximum resistance to water and humidity.
