Chapter 3 - Configuration
Configuring RF Radiation Hazard Zones
To prevent exposure to the antenna’s radiated RF energy, you can
configure up to two RF radiation hazard zones for areas where crew
and/or passengers frequent. (See
“Important Safety Information” on
for details on minimum safety distances.) When determining
the need for a hazard zone, keep in mind that the antenna can transmit
down to an elevation of -24°, so no danger exists directly below the
antenna.
Figure 3-1 Example of an RF Radiation Hazard Zone
Whenever the antenna points within an RF radiation hazard zone, the
system will disable the transmitter and the control unit will display the
following message:
Once the antenna points outside the hazard zone, transmission
capability will be restored.
