Ground Station User Interface
The ground station user interface includes a control board with 4 elements:
1.
Power Socket:
The power socket is located on the back of the station. It allows the
station to be connected to 230V 50Hz. In case of an emergency, unplugging the cable
will cut the power supply to the station.
2.
Buzzer:
The buzzer alerts the user to an alarm (power consumption, temperature,
power ON, power standby)
3.
USB:
The
USB plug is used to upgrade the software of the LIGH-T station.
4.
WIFI:
The antenna sends data to a smartphone or android tablet
5.
Power Switch:
Power through the micro-tether needs to be activated with this
actuator. Serious injury could occur if the micro-tether is manipulated once it is
switched ON. Only turn the power switch ON when the drone is connected, and you
are ready to take-off.
6.
Ethernet Plug:
The ethernet plug can be used to send and receive data to the drone.
Micro-Tether
When the LIGH-T is in use, the micro-tether transmits electricity (inferior to 500V DC, low voltage). An
alteration of the micro-tether may cause severe damage and injury. Please fly safely.
The LIGH-T supports two different micro-tethers with weights per meter at: 10.5g/m and 16g/m. Both
weights are 60m (200ft) in length.
The micro-tether is composed of the following parts: a power transmission conductor, an aramid
reinforced core and a black protective sheath. Its aramid reinforcement guarantees security of the
drone’s
flight profile and makes it compliant to most civil aviation tethered drone regulations. The end
connector is composed of a mechanical fastener, a power connector and a data connector.
