(7) System On-Air Checks

Conduct system on-air checks to confirm voice and data call capabilities through the 
satellite and ground station (LES) network. Additional testing confirms that proper 
signal level parameters are obtained through the antenna subsystem.

(a) Preparation

Before attempting on-air testing procedures:

Complete and confirm all service provider registration and activation. 

Complete and document all pre power-up and power-up checks.

Position the aircraft outside, away from all obstructions in the line-of-site to 
the satellite used.

Apply the aircraft power source.

Power on and wait for the IRS to align.

Connect a computer (with a terminal emulation program) to the HSD 
transceiver maintenance port.

Several system parameters, such as IRS data, RF signal quality, and 
log-on messaging, appear on the maintenance port display. Capture and 
save this maintenance port information to a file for later review or to serve 
as an historical test record.

(b) On-Air Power up and Logon Procedure

For this test procedure, use the Level 2, maint password to access the HSD 
Maintenance Utility Program.

With the computer connected, powered-up, and ready to accept 
maintenances port data:
