D1000(A) IRIDIUM SATCOM DATA SOLUTION

Ground Test & Operational Flight Check Procedure
A functional ground test procedure and an operational flight check procedure should
be used to verify proper installation and functional performance. In order to
accomplish a quick functionality check (after installation is completed), position the
aircraft outside of the hangar with no overhead obstructions. With all other aircraft
systems powered down, apply aircraft power to the D1000(A) Modem Unit.
1. Switch the D1000(A) power on by moving the knob on the Control Unit to the
on position.
2. Observe the LED’s. A startup routine will light the LED’s on the left side of the
Control Unit one by one (from Power to GPS to Iridium to Msg). This
indicates that the software on the unit is operational.
3. Allow a couple of minutes to acquire both Iridium and GPS signal. The
respective LED’s will light upon sufficient signal. An amber signal indicates
sufficient, but not full signal. Green indicates full signal.
4. Make sure the
QuickPosition
button is working by pushing it and verifying that
the blue LED on top of it lights up. Push the button again to disable
QuickPosition
(turning LED light off).
5. Please refer to the “D1000(A) User Guide” and the “SkyRouter User Guide”
for operation.
If any difficulty is experienced with the functionality or operational performance of the
D1000A, please contact Blue Sky Network for assistance.
The required logbook entries and FAA approvals are the responsibility of the
installer and Blue Sky Network assumes no responsibility for either obligation
.
