Q. What is the maximum length my GPS cable can be?
A. ACR Electronics recommends a maximum length of 400 feet using 24 AWG wire. Contact your GPS
owner's manual for more detailed information.
Q. What happens if I plug the GPS into the P-ELT first and press the GPS I or I/O button without
waiting for the GPS to acquire satellites?
A. The P-ELT will function normally in the off position, but will not store GPS coordinates. As soon as the
GPS has acquired satellites the data will be transferred to the P-ELT. If the P-ELT is activated no GPS
data will be accepted and your P-ELT will rely on the LEOSAR satellites to obtain its position by using
Doppler shift.
Q. What happens if I have downloaded GPS into my P-ELT and the Onboard GPS engine acquires
new GPS data (P/N 2799.4 only)?
A. If external and internal GPS are present, the internal GPS data will have priority at activation. If the
internal GPS has not been able to acquire your LAT/LON coordinates prior to your first burst, the
downloaded GPS coordinates will accompany the UIN to the satellites.
coordinates are obtained by the onboard GPS, these coordinates will be updated into the distress
message and the downloaded coordinates will be eliminated.
Q. How long does the P-ELT hold data in memory?
A. 4 hours. If new GPS data has not been downloaded, the AeroFix will return to default mode and utilize
the LEOSAR satellites to obtain the position using Doppler shift.
Q. How much power is needed to run the IR LED on the GPS cable?
A. The minimum power needed is 3.3V
