Zusammenfassung:	A personal locator beacon system including at least one individual locator device and a plurality of battery powered wireless beacons installed at different locations within a facility. Each individual locator device is worn by a corresponding individual and has a local wireless transceiver and a GPS receiver. The plurality of beacons include at least a subset of reed switch beacons installed at different doorway locations within the facility. Each reed switch beacon is configured to transmit an identification signal with a predetermined signal strength for reception by the local wireless transceiver of the individual locator device within a designated area of the facility, as well as to selectively acquire a perimeter mode for detecting opening of a respective door of the facility.
