CHECK
1. Self-test
A. Periodicity
It is recommended by the manufacturer to test the ELT to detect any possible
failure.
It is recommended to perform a self-test once a month but it should not be
done more than once a week.
However, each self-test consumes energy from the battery. Should self-tests
be carried out more often than the maximum allowed, the battery life-time might
be shorter than specified.
B. Self-test procedure
Check that the antenna is connected correctly.
If a programming dongle is fitted on the bracket, connect it to the ELT.
Switch the ELT from “OFF” to “ARM”.
The buzzer operates during the whole Self-test procedure.
After a few seconds, the test result is displayed with the visual indicator as
follows:
- One long flash indicates that the beacon is operational and that no error
conditions were found.
- A series of short flashes
(see note below)
indicates test failed.
Switch back to “OFF” (or keep in the “ARM” position if the ELT is equipped
with a water switch sensor).
NOTE: The number of flashes gives an indication of the faulty parameter
detected during the self-test.
CAUTION: WHEN OPERATING THE ARM/OFF/ON SWITCH, PULL LEVER
TO UNLOCK AND SET TO POSITION.
Do not perform Self-test without the antenna connected.
If self-test fails, contact the distributor as soon as possible.
Unless a waver is granted, flight should be cancelled.
