2.0 Warning Notices
2.1 Control of Simulators
STS aims to make simulators that are indistinguishable from real instruments, so that the
person being instructed experiences the best possible training. A consequence of this is that
there is a possibility that the simulator could be mistaken for a real instrument, and then
used for a real monitoring task, when, obviously, no readings would result.
To guard against this danger, simulators must be effectively managed so that they cannot be
used for real monitoring, while at the same time their benefit as a precise simulator of a real
instrument is not diminished.
2.1.1 This equipment is not suitable to be operated whilst on board an aircraft.
2.1.2 This equipment may not operate in the close proximity of high energy emissions,
eg RADAR installations.
2.1.3 This equipment is not intended to be used in or close to Life Support appliances,
devices or systems where malfunction of the STS product can reasonably be
expected to result in a personal injury.
2.1.4 This equipment is not designed to be intrinsically safe and should not be used in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
3.0 Safety Notices
These units use a low powered radiofrequency device running from batteries generating 3.3
Volts and as such should pose no risk to health.
Instruments should be kept clean and not exposed to excessive moisture, very high humidity
or rain. The instruments are not IP rated and as such any failure occurring through water
ingress is not covered under the warranty.
Please note the following safety advice:
a) Remove batteries before taking this unit on board an aircraft.
b) Remove batteries before returning this unit for repair.
c) Remove batteries before storage for any extended period(in excess of 4
weeks).
4.0 Operational Characteristics
4.1 Initial Setup of Network
The Safe-Series operates similar to a wifi network and as such has a Master Control Device. In order
for the units to function correctly the Master instrument must be switched on first, then any other
instruments or simulated radiation sources. Once initially set up the devices will remember the
configuration set and use this until such time as the setup is changed.
Only the Survey-Safe, Safe-FH40, Safe-EPD or the Dosi-Safe can be configured to be a Master
instrument, this is done in the instruments on screen menu options.
