(C) Spider 6 Electromagnetic Compatibility Test 

Procedure 

(C)1.Test Definition 

The purpose of these test procedures is to demonstrate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) 

between the aircraft’s electrical or electronic systems, and the Spider 6 being tested. This test 

procedure is an aircraft-level test to determine if there is any electromagnetic or radio 

frequency interference (EMI/RFI) to the various critical aircraft systems, radios and installed 

equipment. 

(C)2.Special Tools and Equipment 

The following equipment may be required depending on aircraft installed equipment and 

availability of navigation aids and ATC radar in the area where testing is conducted. 

a. NAV/COM Ramp Tester (e.g. NAV-402AP, IFR-4000); 

b. Transponder/DME Ramp Tester (e.g. ATC-600A, ATC-601, IFR-6000); 

c. TCAS Ramp Tester (e.g. TCAS-201, IFR-6000); 

d. Headsets; and  

e. Other equipment as required to exercise all modes of operation for systems under test. 

(C)3.Test Conditions  

All aircraft systems under test must be functional prior to starting the EMC test. Any reduced 

functionality of the system(s) should be noted. All testing shall be conducted in day VFR 
conditions with a clear view of the sky to ensure that a GPS fix can be obtained for starting the 

Iridium transmission. 

For the test, the following conditions are required: 

a. All engines running with all generators online (for part of the test); 

b. All electrical busses powered; and  

c. All avionics/electrical systems and installed equipment powered and active. 

(C)4.Test Procedure 

The following procedures detail the methodology for the EMC test. 

1. Identify all aircraft systems under testing from the test matrix table and strike out 

those that are not applicable to the respective aircraft used in the test.
