Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair
of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings in this manual may
violate the safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the equipment. Cobham assumes
no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection may be impaired.
During transmission the AVIATOR UAV 200 SATCOM terminal can radiate microwave power in any direction
not screened by the aircraft fuselage. High levels of radio frequency radiation are considered harmful to
health. Although all countries have not agreed upon a single value, the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999) recommends that according to General Public Requirements a person
should not be exposed to radiation stronger than 1 mW/cm2at the frequencies used in this terminal.
Accordingly, the operator of the system should ensure that no person should approach within 50 cm (1.6 ft)
of the terminal when it is transmitting.
Electrostatic Discharge Caution
The terminal contains items that are electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive. Use approved industry
precautions to keep the risk of damage to a minimum when you touch, remove or insert parts or assemblies.
Under extreme heat conditions or prolonged transmission periods, do not touch metal parts of the AVIATOR
UAV 200, as this may result in injury.

RADIOFREQUENCY RADIATION EXPOSURE INFORMATION:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance of 50 cm between the radiator and your
body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
NOTICES:
1) This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
a) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
b) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
2) Changes or modifications made to this equipment not expressly approved by Omnipless
Manufacturing (PTY) Ltd may void the FCC authorization to operate this equipment.
3) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

1. ABOUT THIS MANUAL
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This installation manual provides the general installation procedures for the AVIATOR UAV 200 and
configuration of the terminal once installed in the aircraft.
AVIATOR UAV 200 has been tested but not formally qualified to RTCA DO-160G specifications. As such,
Qualification Test Reports and other supporting documentation are not available.
NOTE: It is important that all safety requirements listed in the beginning of this manual are observed, and
that the system is installed according to the guidelines in this manual.
1.2 PURPOSE
The information, drawings and wiring diagrams contained in this manual are intended as a reference for
engineering planning only. It is the installer's responsibility to compose installation drawings specific to the
aircraft.
