NEXUS MTD REMOTE OPERATION:
1) To turn on the MTD - Press once and press once, again and hold the power button on the controller for 3 seconds until the LED lights cycle
and the LCD screen populates with information. The Nexus MTD will need to be worn by the RPIC or placed near them on a tripod stand so that
the manual deploy button can be easily reached if needed.
2) Remote Arming - Press and hold the Nexus MTD Arm/Disarm button for 3 seconds. The LED lights will flash and then return to solid to
indicate that it is Pre-Armed. The LCD screen will read “System Pre-Armed”.
If you are Pre-Arming in flight and have already reached the
arming minimum altitude, the LCD screen will read “System Armed
”.
3) Remote Disarming – Press and hold the Nexus MTD Arm/Disarm button for 4 seconds. The LED lights will flash and then return to
rotating green to indicate that it is disarmed. The LCD screen will read “Disarmed”, indicating that the Nexus is disarmed and you can
visually observe that the rotating red LED ring on the Nexus i2 PRS has changed to rotating green, indicating it is Disarmed. The Nexus MTD
will also make a series of audible tones indicating a change in mode. This is the preferred and primary method of disarming the Nexus i2
PRS because it places a safe distance between the operator and the aircraft.
IF THE SYSTEM IS ARMED OR DISARMED IT WILL BEEP 3 TIMES:
4)
Manual Deployment
is initiated by
pressing the DEPLOY button three (3) times within one (1) second.
NOTE -
Manual deployment should always be used as a last option in cases such as imminent unavoidable collisions or fly-aways.
In the event of a manual deployment the user should continuously and rapidly press the DEPLOY button until the MTD indicates visually
and audibly that the system has deployed.
* The Nexus MTD operates at 915 Mhz. Please check your country’s local laws and regulations in regards to compliance before using this
frequency. In absence of the Nexus MTD the LED light ring and audible tones indicate system mode.
