5. How to use the AAT
 Power on all equipments and use the test button on the AAT Driver to check the
tracker. Check to ensure the four pointing directions are basically correct and the
red RX LED on the AATDriver fast blinks.
 It takes time for the GPS to search satellites. Wait for a while and check the GPS
status according to the blinking frequency of the yellow LED on the AAT Driver. The
higher the blinking frequency is, the better the GPS status is. In the best condition,
the yellow LED will keep on. Check to ensure a good GPS positioning status before
the next step.
 Place the plane near the tracker as far as possible and press the SetHome button on
the TeleFlyOSD module for about three seconds. The tracker will play a “Beep...”
sound, indicating the origin of coordinates has been set. At the same time, the red
LED on the tracker starts to blink, and the antenna should pitch up to 30 degrees
angle. That means the tracker stands by for tracking.

You can manually spin the tracker towards the take-off direction while it is in the
standby mode to ensure the best angle of signal reception in the take-off phase,
because the tracker won’t start tracking unless the plane leaves you 10 meters away.

Take off your plane now. Once the plane leaves the tracker 10 meters away, the red
LED on the tracker turns off and the tracker immediately starts continuous tracking
(the track will not stop tracking even if the plane flies back to within 10 meters).
Notes:

Check before take-off to ensure the AATDriver is not in the test mode (the red RX
LED on the AATDriver will keep on in the test mode), and the tracker is not in the
offline mode (the red Off-Line LED on the tracker will keep on in the offline
mode). In both of these special conditions, the tracker will not track the target.

If the downlink is broken or the GPS is in a very bad status after SetHome, the
tracker will play the “Beep...Beep...” sound and the red LED blinks, warning the
tracking capability has lost. In this situation, you can spin the tracker by hand
towards the proper direction if necessary (pitch angle will maintain the angle
before loss of signal). The system will automatically resume tracking as soon as
things go well.
