9.3 Internal Battery Operation
9.3.1 General
The internal battery consists of a rechargeable battery system with automatic
recharge, self-test, and power switching capability. The internal battery
capacity will provide approximately 2 hours of operation at standard
temperatures and 30 minutes (minimum) of operational capacity over the
operational temperature range.
While on ground the AV-30 can go to battery mode in the following ways
1. While AV-30 is aligning the unit will continue to battery mode if
battery master is shut off. Once aligned it will shut down.
2. If any button is pressed after power has been removed, the AV-30 will
go to battery mode.
3. If the AV-30 senses airspeed, it will stay in battery mode. Make sure
that the caps have been removed from the back of the AV-30 pitot
and static ports.
If the AV-30 needs to be shut down after removing power, push and hold the
left and right buttons until the unit shuts down.
See the Pilots Guide UAV-1004233-001 §10 Internal Battery Operation for
additional operational information.
9.4 Internal Magnetometer (Optional)
9.4.1 General
