LED Indication
Four indication LEDs are located on the front side of the GPU, see Figure 11 for reference. The main purpose of LEDs is to
facilitate set-up procedure, simplify pre-flight checks as well as to provide clear identification of the battery status
before the flight. The following LED operation is implemented in the GPU:
6 V
– green LED indicates 6 V voltage presence.
12 V
– green LED indicates 12 V voltage presence.
BAT
– green LED indicates that battery is supplying the system. When LED is off the generator or external power is
supplying the system.
CHRG
– red LED indicates battery charging. When LED is flashing the battery voltage is low and the generator provides
not enough power.

Tachometer
Tachometer input allows to monitor engine or generator rotation speed using engine ignition system hall sensor. This
reading can be sent through TTL port to autopilot and transmitted to the UAV ground station via the rf-link.
Connect signal output to RPM sensor input and ground pin to common ground of the power unit - see Figure 13 and
Figure 14 for details.
