(2)The labels (a)Identification label This label indicates : – beacon name, manufacturer details, – the condition in which the beacon may be used (warning), – approval number, identification, part number, service bulletin, serial number and conditions on the use of the beacon.
  • Page 21 This label indicates the location of the connectors on the front face of the electronic assy. (d)Identification label This label indicates the axis according to which the ELT ADT 406 AP must be installed on the aircraft (see paragraph. 4.B.) for automatic activation (G-switch).
  • Page 22 86(5¶6 +$1'%22. ELT ADT 406 AP aircraft components (f)Remote control unit The remote control unit integrated in the aircraft cockpit consists of : – a RESET/TEST pushbutton, – an ELT ON indicator light, – a two-position ON/ARMED switch with safety cover (flip guard). The safety cover forces the switch to ARMED position.
