PIPER CHEROKEE SIX SERVICE MANUAL
NOTE
The test transmission should have been picked up by the
aircraft
communications
receiver and/or control
tower.
During cold weather there may be a slight delay before
transmission occurs.
c. Set the pilot's remote switch to the RESET position for one second; then select the
ARM position.
11-9. INADVERTENT ACTIVATION.
a. In the event the ELT is inadvertently activated in aircraft without a pilot's remote
switch, the ELT will have to be reset by gaining access to the ELT. (Refer to paragraphs
11-4 or 11-5.) Put the ON/ARM/OFF switch in the OFF position. To reset for automatic
operation, return switch to the ARM position. (See Note.)
b. In aircraft with a pilot's remote switch, if the ELT is inadvertently activated, set the
pilot's remote switch to the RESET position; then return it to the ARM position. (See
Note.)
NOTE
As a routine precaution, it is recommended that the ELT be
replaced at
the earliest
opportunity
after inadvertent
activation. Note, however, that the problem may not be in
the transmitter. Check the following:
1. Proper spacing of antennas so as to minimize antenna
conducted RF.
2. Rigdity of the transmitter installation.
CAUTION
Under normal conditions, the pilot's remote switch must be
set to ARM position.
11-10. RADAR SYSTEM INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
11-11. DESCRIPTION. The PA-32-300 and PA-32R-300 may be equipped with the RCA
Weather Scout radar installation. The basic components are the receiver/transmitter antenna
and the cockpit indicator. The antenna is mounted in a radome at the outboard leading edge of
the right wing while the cockpit indicator is mounted in the instrument panel.
11-12. ANTENNA REMOVAL. The antenna is in a radome between wing stations 147.700
and 171.350 of the right wing.
a. Remove the screws securing the radome to the wing leading edge.
b. Pull the radome away from the wing far enough to gain access for removal of vacuum
hose and electrical cable. Remove the radome from the wing.
