- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5 M2-D SBUS Adapter Configuration & Calibration 5.1 Download and install M2-D S-Bus Adapter Config and DJI Phantom 2 applications 5.2 Connect the M2-D S-Bus Adapter to Your PC using micro USB

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5.3 Execute M2-D S-Bus Adapter Config. application

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5.4 Configuration Channels and Camera mode of M2-D S-Bus Adapter Note: Camera Day/IR/NUC is set to channel 12, while at the Futaba the Day/IR/NUC is set to channel 11. The reason is a bug in the Lightbridge which maps channel 11 (from the Futaba) to channel 12 (to SBUS Adapter).

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5.5 Calibration of M2-D SBUS Adapter The calibration of SBUS Adapter includes two steps: a. The Bypass/Single Yaw switch in the Futaba should be set to Bypass mode (forward - like in the following image): Switch to the Calibration tab in the SBUS Adapter Config App Press “Start” button in the Calibration Tab and move the sticks of the Futaba to full range for 5 seconds,

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - and press “Finish” button.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - • Connect the DJI Phantom 2 to Your PC using micro USB and execute Phantom 2 application. Switch to RC tab in Basic menu.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - • Set the Phantom 2 application to NAZA Mode by pressing the Naza-M button at the top of the application: • Check direction of sticks. Move each stick to 4 directions and verify that the move of the stick is replicated correctly in the Phantom 2 application.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - In case that a stick movement in reverted in the application, press the NORM/REV button. • Verify operation of Safety switch. Move the Safety switch down and verify that the Control Mode Switch indication in Phantom 2 application points to FailSafe. Move the Safety switch to center and verify that the Control Mode Switch indication in Phantom 2 application points to Atti. Move the Safety switch up and verify that the Control Mode Switch indication in Phantom 2 application points to GPS. Safety Switch Position Required Control Mode Switch indication Down FailSafe

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - Center Atti. Up GPS In case that the indicated Control Mode Switch does not match the table, the range of the Futaba key should be set. Setting of Futaba range is described in the following steps: a. Double click on “LNK” Key b. Go to “END POINT” and press “RTN” c. Change Range of the current channel

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - • Calibration: Press “START” button (DJI Application) Press “Cal. with DJI” (S-Bus Adapter Config App)

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - Wait 5 seconds and Press “Cal/ with DJI” button again Press “FINISH” button (DJI Application)

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5.6 Calibration Test Following calibration we will use the Phantom application to verify proper calibration Switch the Phantom application to View menu. Move the LFT/RGT stick to maximal left position and verify that the E Channel monitor displays -1000. Move the LFT/RGT stick to maximal right position and verify that the E Channel monitor displays 1000. Move the LFT/RGT stick to center position and verify that the E Channel monitor displays 0. Repeat the test for the other sticks in accordance with the following table: Stick Channel Max left Center Max Right LFT/RGT A -1000 0 1000 YAW R -1000 0 1000 Stick Channel Max Backward Center Max Forward FW/BWD E -1000 0 1000 Altitude T -1000 0 1000 Move the Safety switch down and verify that the U Channel monitor displays a value greater than 750. Move the Safety switch to center and verify that the U Channel monitor displays a value greater than -50 and lower than +50. Move the Safety switch down and verify that the U Channel monitor displays a value lower than -750. Move the IOC switch down and verify that the X2 Channel monitor displays a value greater than 750. Move the IOC switch to center and verify that the X2 Channel monitor displays a value greater than -50 and lower than +50. Move the IOC switch down and verify that the X2 Channel monitor displays a value lower than -750.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 5.7 Close all applications 5.8 Disconnect all USB cables 5.9 Power off the Phantom 2 and the Lightbridge 5.10 Re-assemble Phantom 2 covers (Do not re-assemble Phantom 2 propellers) 5.11 Power on Phantom 2 and Lightbridge and continue with system testing.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 6 System Test The following system test procedures must be performed successfully before assembling the Phantom 2 propellers. 6.1 Testing Return to Home Function For test return to Home function • Move the Safety switch to Return-to-Home position (down) and verify that the 2 LEDs of Phantom 2 are blinking in red-green colors. • Move the Safety key to Normal position (up) and verify that the two LEDs of the Phantom 2 are blinking in yellow colors. 6.2 Communication Disconnect Testing Before starting the test verify that the LED of the Phantom 2 is blinking in red-green colors. Disconnect the Futaba remote control from Lightbridge system and verify that the LED of the Phantom 2 is blinking in yellow.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 6.3 Camera Pitch Testing Move camera pitch slider And verify that the camera pitch changes accordingly. 6.4 Day/IR/NUC/Polarity Move the Day/IR/NUC/Polarity switch forward and verify that the camera is in day mode (by observing the video) Move the Day/IR/NUC/Polarity switch to center and verify that the camera is in IR mode (by observing the video) Move the Day/IR/NUC/Polarity switch backward and return to center within 1 second and verify that the camera polarity is changed (by observing the video). Repeat this action for several times to verify that the camera switched through black hot – white hot and color modes.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - Move the Day/IR/NUC/Polarity switch backward and return to center following 3 seconds and verify that the camera is performing NUC operation (by observing the camera pitch changes and look down). 6.5 Zoom In/Out Move the Zoom switch forward and verify that camera is zooming in. (by observing the video) Move the Zoom switch to center and verify that the zoom camera does not change (by observing the video). Move the Zoom switch backward and verify that the camera is zooming out (by observing the video).

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 6.6 Bypass/Single Yaw Move the Bypass/Single Yaw switch backward (i.e. setting Single Yaw mode). Continuously move the left stick to the left and to the right (i.e. generating YAW command) and verify that black area are entering the image from both side (by observing the video). When moving the stick to the left a black area should enter the image from the right side. When moving the stick to the right a black area should enter the image from the left side. Move the Bypass/Single Yaw switch forward (i.e. setting Bypass mode). Continuously move the left stick to the left and to the right (i.e. generating YAW command) and verify that the image of the camera does not change (by observing the video). Move the Bypass/Single Yaw switch to the center (i.e. setting Bypass mode). Continuously move the left stick to the left and to the right (i.e. generating YAW command) and verify that the image of the camera does not change (by observing the video).

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 6.7 Motor on/off At the same time move the right stick to left- backward position and the left stick to right- backward position and verify that the 4 motors start. Following that, At the same time move the right stick to left- backward position and the left stick to right- backward position and verify that the 4 motors are off.

- SPI Corp Proprietary and Confidential Information - 7 Operation Following a successful completion of all tests, Phantom 2 propellers can be reassembled and the unit is ready for first fly. While in Single Yaw mode the sensitivity of the YAW control changes dynamically. As a result, when taking off and recovering the system must be in Bypass mode. The Bypass mode is entered by moving the Bypass/Single Yaw switch forward. During flight it is recommended to switch the mode to Single Yaw and use the special benefits of smooth camera operation while in this special mode.
