TESTING THE MECHANICAL RELEASE FUNCTION
1. Remove the manual safety pin holding the release cord.
2. The Lifebuoy will be released and launched from the GRP holder.
TESTING THE ELECTRONIC RELEASE FUNCTION BY USING THE EMULATOR HM-0467
1. Open the enclosure of the Emulator and attach two connection wires to the terminals on the Emulator.
(Do not use to much torque on the terminal screws)
2. Push the push button on the circuit board to switch on the Emulator. The red and the green LED on the circuit board shall light up
simultaneously. The green LED will start flashing green and the device is ready to be used.
3.
Open the Connector box (mounted close to the GRP holder) and disconnect the flexible cable of the H20 ERU. Connect the two
connection wires from the Emulator to the terminals on the Connector box, were the flexible cable was mounted. (The polarity is not
important).
The Emulator can be left without observation mounted to the Connector box, as the Emulator will hold the indication of the
LED turning from green to red if activated until the device is reset manually.
4. Push the Release Switch (should be mounted on the bridge or inside the wheelhouse) to activate the output of the Lifebuoy Release
unit. The Emulator’s LED will change from LED flashing green to LED flashing red if the output has been activated and the system is
functional.
DO NOT FORGET TO RECONNECT THE H20 ERU AND THE SAFETY PIN AFTER THE TEST!
