Page 15: Configure The Dji M600
A PWM signal is used to deploy the parachute manually. The A3 flight controller has to be configured to generate this signal. The camera trigger on output port F3 is used here as an example, but you may choose another configuration appropriate for your application. ©2021 Drone Rescue Systems GmbH 15/27... -
Page 16: Drs Configuration
50th flight to verify the proper operation of the parachute system. The intention is to test the engine shutdown and the deployment mechanism without a parachute actually being loaded in the container. It is necessary to switch on the motors but keep the UAV on the ground during this test. ©2021 Drone Rescue Systems GmbH 16/27... - Page 17 • Verify that all 12 screws that fix the motor cut-off PCB are pulled tight. • Verify that all 6 screws that fix the red cables on the sockets M1 to M6 are pulled tight. • Reattach the bottom cap. ©2021 Drone Rescue Systems GmbH 17/27...

Page 21: Takeoff
Takeoff Observe the LED and the buzzer during takeoff and thus verify that the DRS is in the correct system state (see chapter 7.1 Device states and signals). ©2021 Drone Rescue Systems GmbH 21/27... -
Page 22: After Flight
If the DRS does not detect the takeoff, you must land the UAV because the automatic deployment function is inactive. Switch the power off, wait 10 seconds and repeat the start procedure. If the failure persists, inform Drone Rescue Systems GmbH or it’s reseller and provide the logfile for failure analysis. -
Page 23: Device
Parachute Manual DRS-M600_EN Device The DRS-M600 is equipped with a micro SD memory card slot. The SD card is FAT32 formatted and is used to store logfiles, perform firmware updates, and load configuration parameters. Device states and signals An indication light and a buzzer are used to inform the pilot about the DRS-M600 internal system states as described in Table 2. -
Page 24: System Time
System Time The DRS-M600 is capable of naming the log-files based on the current date and timestamp. Therefore, the system’s time has to be set in advance. This is done once after fabrication but ©2021 Drone Rescue Systems GmbH... -
Page 25: Firmware Update
Firmware Update Store a file (.bin extension), provided by Drone Rescue Systems GmbH, in the root directory of the micro SD card to perform a firmware update. When the DRS powers up, the file will be found and the update process will start automatically. -
