WARRANTY AND CERTIFICATIONS Any alteration of this product voids the FAA or FCC certific ation and the AirCell warranty. 2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The ST 3100 ASE system provides access to a range of two way communication options from an aircraft, including voice and data applications. With the ST 3100 system these services are available when the aircraft is in the air or on the ground. The AirCell satellite mode communications link is provided using the 1600 MHz Iridium LEO (Low Earth Orbit-485 miles altit ude) satellite network, which provides coverage from the ground up over the entire surface of the earth. 2.1 TOP LEVEL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION The ST 3100 system consists of a number of primary sys tem components. The heart of the system is the ST 3100 ASE Transceiver, which includes internal elec tronics to support operation in the Iridium satellite network. Other system components include the externa lly mounted antenna, a low loss coaxial cable, and various user interfaces including multiple ASE handsets (up to 9), an RS -232 data port, and an audio panel interface.

I 2.2 OPERATION OF THE SYSTEM The user interface and operation of the ST 3100 system is designed to be very similar to the operation of a I terrestrial cellular or PCS phone. Some key features of the ST 3100 system are as follows: • The system will power up when the avionics master switch for the aircraft is powered on. The AirCell system is always on when the avionics master is powered on. • ' The Satellite mode network provides coverage anywhere on (or above) the surface of the earth with a I clear view of the sky in all directions. • To place a call from the system handset, the user must verify that the system is 'in service'. SAT mode calls are typically dialed as international long distance calls (00 + country code + phone number). After dialing, the user must press the " SND " key on the handset, and the phone call will proceed as a typical cellular or PCS call. At the completion of a call, the user may press the " END " key to terminate the call. • The user may receive incoming (ground to air) phone calls depending on the in service condition. The user can answer these calls by pressing the " SND " key on the handset. • Data calls can be made from Air to Ground over the ST system by connecting a Data Terminal Equipment device (such as a PC) to the RS-232 port of the system. The ST system has a built in modem function, so some user setup of the DTE will be required. ) More detailed operating instructions are provided for this system in the ST 3100 User's manual (AirCell document 810-10680). ) AirCell, Inc.
