4. PREPARATION
The
DPS1000
has been designed with a user-friendly GUI,
“Graphical User Interface,” which
provides an intuitive understanding of the man/machine interaction thereby greatly simplifying
the learning experience. However, we
STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that the user becomes
familiar with the DPS1000 operations and menu structure before connecting it to an aircraft
system or instruments and/or performing any tests.
The test procedures are described in place of any specifications by either the airframe or the
instrument manufacturer. Particular attention should be addressed to the preliminary
procedures to avoid erroneous test results and to preclude any risk of damage to the aircraft
or Test Set instruments. The ports on the Test Set and mating hoses are color-coded to help
prevent accidental crossing of Pitot (Pt) and Static (Ps) hoses.
Each Test Set is completely calibrated and tested before shipment. However, to ensure the
integrity of the tests, the DPS1000 should be leak checked before each use. To help
automate this process, use the predefined ATP Test Set only.
WARNING:
OBSERVE AIRCRAFT AND EQUIPMENT SERVICING PROCEDURES AS
WELL AS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS DETAILED IN AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE
MANUAL (AMM), COMPONENT MAINTENANCE MANUAL (CMM), AND
PROCEDURES AND PRACTICES STATED IN LOCAL ORDERS.
