4. ft The AltAlert keeps you informed of potentially dangerous cabin pressure altitudes helping to avoid hypoxia and pilot incapacitation PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FUNCTION The ALTALERT has been developed by Aviation Technology to provide a new measure of confidence and risk mitigation for pilots and passengers of aircraft which will routinely operate from sea level up to flight level The device is designed to utilize an internal algorithmic software program to sense cabin pressure altitude by way of a temperature corrected pressure sensor The AltAlert will also predict imminent dangerously high cabin altitude situations based on cabin rate of climb and FAA regulations Once activated by installation of the battery provided the unit will enter sleep mode while at ground level but will begin sampling pressure and battery voltage every 15 seconds during climb and once in level flight at altitudes above sea level It will do this continuously until the battery is drained or removed usually about 18 months unless alarm is activated in the interim At any time the battery status can be tested by pressing the test button Relative cabin pressure and battery status is indicated via a series of LED color changes and alarm tones See the accompanying chart for indications color blink rate etc pertinent to battery conditions and pressure alarms The ALTALERT may be easily mounted on a flat surface in the cockpit or cabin
