A. Operational Overview

(1)

Operation of the Dongle is automatic and requires no operator interface other than activating

the +28 VDC power source and verifying no failure mode is present. See “Fault Isolation” on

page 26.

The following conditions must be true for the Dongle to function:

(a)

+28 VDC aircraft power must be applied to the unit (i.e., the power source must be

switched on).

(b)

The Cobham Artex ELT must be programmed with a 24-bit address long message

(Standard Location Protocol).

NOTE: The Dongle is designed for use only with Cobham Artex ELTs. No other use of

the Dongle is certified or approved by Cobham.
