Operating Procedures

1. Installation Checklist

• Ensure that the PRS-M30 is not damaged.

• Ensure that the PRS-M30 strap screw is secured to the PRS-M30.

• Check that the connector on the electronics module is clean and undamaged.

• Ensure the DJI M30/T PSDK port is clear of damage or debris.

• Plug in the PRS-M30 to the top DJI M30/T plug.

• Ensure the mounting screws (QTY 4) are properly secured, and the strap is installed correctly around the arms of the DJI M30/T as outlined in the installation instructions.

2. Pre-Flight Checklist

• Perform DJI M30/T preflight checks.

• Verify and note any high-power RF emitters in the operational volume.

• Ensure DJI M30/T is in normal mode.

• Ensure DJI M30/T is level.

• Turn on PRS-M30 by turning on the DJI M30/T.

DO NOT HANDLE OR MOVE THE DJI M30/T ONCE THE PRS-M30 IS TURNED ON ON UNLESS CALIBRATING EITHER THE PRS-M30 IMU OR THE DJI M30/T COMPASS. REFER TO THE "CALIBRATION PROCESSES" SECTION FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CALIBRATE EACH OF THESE COMPONENTS..

• Move at least five (5) meters away from the DJI M30/T.

• Check that the LED (heartbeat) turns on.

• Wait for successful initialization.

• Ensure NO ERRORS are present using the PSDK info screen on the DJI M30/T transmitter.

• Ensure DJI M30/T downward-facing sensors are enabled.

• Takeoff and climb to minimum deployable altitude.

AUTO-TRIGGER WILL ONLY ARM ONCE AN ALTITUDE OF 36 METERS (118 FEET) IS REACHED.

MANUAL TRIGGER DEVICE CAN ONLY BE ARMED ONCE AN ALTITUDE OF 5 METRES (16.4 FT) IS REACHED.

3. In-Flight Checklist

THE MINIMUM DEPLOYABLE ALTITUDE FOR THE PRS-M30 IS 36.3 METERS. WHEN OPERATING OVER PEOPLE, DO NOT FLY BELOW THE 36.3 METERS (119.1 FEET).

• Always fly in Normal Mode or Mission Mode.

• Fly in a safe and controlled manner.

• Avoid flying over people if unnecessary.

4. Landing Checklist

• Land DJI M30/T gently on a level surface at a safe distance from people.

• The ATS should disarm when the DJI M30/T is five (5) meters (16 feet) from the ground. The MTD will indicate when the ATS disarms. Do not approach the DJI M30/T until the ATS is disarmed. If the automatic ground detection does not disarm the ATS then it will take approximately ten (10) seconds after landing to disarm the ATS.

• Once the PRS-M30 is disarmed, turn off the DJI-M30/T.

• After the DJI-M30/T is off, the PRS-M30 will turn off after a few seconds.

ENSURE THE PRS-M30 LED IS OFF BEFORE HANDLING THE DJI M30/T.

5. Post-Flight Checklist (No Deployment)

• DO NOT STAND DIRECTLY OVER THE PRS-M30 WHEN APPROACHING THE DJI M30/T.

• Ensure PRS-M30 is disarmed before approaching the DJI M30/T.

• Turn off DJI M30/T and PRS-M30 BEFORE handling the DJI-M30/T.

• Inspect PRS-M30 and DJI M30/T for damage.

6. Deployment Checklist

• If necessary, the system can be deployed using the MTD.

• If possible, fly over a safe area free of people, cars, or obstacles.

• Press and hold the trigger button on the MTD.

• Visually follow the DJI M30/T’s descent to the ground.

7. Post-Flight Checklist (With Deployment)

• Hold the parachute by the lines and fold the canopy to prevent wind from inadvertently inflating the parachute.

• Turn off PRS-M30.

• Turn off DJI M30/T.

• Disconnect PRS-M30 and bracket from the DJI M30/T.

• Verify that no components are missing.
