Version 1.5
OPERATIONAL CHECK AND POWER-ON PERFORMANCE PROCEDURES
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 HE7200A modem unit & HE100A
accessory system.
1. Observe the LED’s on the HE100A, immediately after being powered on they should be solid, and
then soon after that they should be blinking while the HE7200A is searching for signal. Ultimately
the Iridium and GPS lights should be solid green.
2. Attempt to place a call using any and all voice interfaces that may be required. Refer to the user
manual for dialing behaviors, but to dial a number you will need to press 00 + IDD phone
number followed by the # to initiate the satellite phone call. Ensure you can communicate with the
other side.
3. [OPTIONAL] Test the Bluetooth interface by activating the Bluetooth button on the HE100A and
then using an iOS device pair your phone with the phone and check the status screen for GPS
information and to ensure you can read the IMEI number from the HE7200A system.
If any difficulty is experienced with the functionality or operational performance of the HE7200A or the
HE100A, please contact Blue Sky Network for assistance.
The required logbook entries and FAA approvals are the responsibility of the installer and Blue
