4.1.6 Turning On the Radio
If wireless communication is desired, the radio must be turned on. This procedure
gives instructions for turning on the radio.
DANGER
When the HAPSITE radio is on, even if wireless
communication is not being used, a radio signal is being
transmitted. The only way to eliminate the radio signal is
to turn the radio off.
1
Open the front panel of the HAPSITE.
2
Remove the cover from the power switch (for the wireless radio). It is located
on the far left hand side. To remove, unscrew the cover by turning it
counter-clockwise. See
Figure 4-1

DANGER
The HAPSITE contains a wireless transmitter/receiver that
emits electromagnetic radiation (EMR). This radiation in a
tactical or operational environment may potentially be
used to locate the HAPSITE and its operators. This
radiation also has the potential to detonate some types of
unexploded ordnance (UXO), or improvised explosive
devices (IEDs), or both, if the HAPSITE is transmitting in
the safety exclusion area around the device(s). There is a
hardware switch to turn off the wireless radio so that the
HAPSITE may still be used in areas where these hazards
are a concern. Consult applicable regulations and policies
when using the HAPSITE with the wireless device active
in such environments.
