  • Page 2 Sport flying is an activity that is associated with considerable risks for crew, passengers, third parties and other objects. In order to make full and safe use of ECW100, it is absolutely essential to be fully aware of the risks, operating conditions, restrictions and limitations associated with the use of ECW100.
  • Page 3: How It Works

    A pressure sensor further enhances the accuracy of position measurements. The predicted flight path of a first aircraft — in which ECW100 is installed — is calculated by ECW100 and the information transmitted by radio, as a low power digital burst signal at one-second intervals.

    European Commission Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003 must be respected. ECW100 must be secured in such a position that the pilot has the display LEDs in direct view, and can hear the acoustic warning tone and operate the control buttons. ECW100 must not obstruct the piloting operation and in particular it must not hinder his field of view.
  • Page 5 5. Housing The front of the housing has fore threads, so that ECW100 can easily be secured by fore M4 screws (no more than 10 mm long). On the rear side there are two distance holders on the D-Sub-15 Connector. Do not remove these distance holders.

  • Page 10: Radio Antenna

    9. Radio Antenna The radio antenna is required for operation of ECW100. It's an external λ/2 dipole antenna with 3 m cable (50 RG-174U on conventional SMA), for internal or external installation. The correct installation has a considerable effect upon range for transmitter/receiver range, so the installation must be carefully considered.
