C. RC200 Working mode information
The RC200 enables remote control and remote monitoring of the KANNAD 406
AF-COMPACT provided that the ELT switch is in armed position.
(1) Remote Control
Remote control is accomplished through a 3-position switch:
- ON (transmission) enables manual activation of the ELT.
- ARMED (stand by mode to enable automatic activation by the shock
sensor) is an idle position. Unless there is an emergency, the switch
must stay in this position.
- RESET-TEST is used either to stop the ELT transmission if activated or
to perform a self-test.
The "OFF" mode is not available on the remote control panel but directly
on the ELT itself by switching it in "OFF" position.
(2) Monitoring
Monitoring is accomplished through a led operating in the same way as the
ELT visual indicator:
• Transmission:
- 2 Hz pulsed signal during ELT transmission on 121.5 MHz;
- 1 long flash during ELT transmission on 406 MHz (every 50 seconds).
• Self-test:
- 1 short flash at the beginning of the self-test sequence;
- 3 + N flashes at the end of the self-test sequence if the ELT is faulty (N
depends of type of failure, Refer to (2) Self-Test, page 103);
- 1 long flash at the end of the self-test sequence if the ELT is correct.
