INSTALLATION MANUAL OPERATION MANUAL INSPECTION LOG
It is recommended to test the ELT regularly in order to detect any possible
failure (Refer to A. Periodicity, page
The number of self-tests carried out is recorded. This information is
available when the ELT is connected to a programming and test
equipment (PR600).
(3) Armed
In order to enable activation by the G-Switch or with the Remote Control
Panel, the ELT must be in standby mode with the switch in the "ARM"
position.
This mode is mandatory during flight. The ELT should remain in the
"ARM" position except when the aircraft is parked for a long period or for
maintenance.
The Remote Control Panel is energized by the ELT when the ELT's switch
is on "ARM" position.
(4) On
This mode is selected:
• manually by switching the ELT to "ON";
• by switching the Remote Control Panel switch to "ON" (provided that
the ELT switch is in the "ARM" position);
• automatically when a crash occurs (provided that the ELT switch is in
the "ARM" position).
When this mode is selected, the ELT starts transmitting after 50 seconds:
• on 406 MHz (one 406 MHz burst every 50 seconds);
• on 121.5 MHz (continous transmission between each 406 MHz burst).
The red visual indicator on the ELT (and on the remote control panel)
flashes and the buzzer operates.
• Red visual indicator:
- 1 short flash during ELT transmission on 121.5 MHz (every 0.5
seconds);
- 1 long flash during ELT transmission on 406 MHz (every 50
seconds).
• Buzzer:
- 2 Hz pulse signal (recurrence 500 ms) during ELT transmission on
121.5 MHz.
In case of accidental activation, the ELT can be reset either by switching it
to "OFF" or by switching to "RESET" on the Remote Control Panel.
