Section 1 General Information
1.1. Introduction
The SAR-DF 517 4-Band Precision Direction Finder System is described in ”Installation and
Operation” DV 77513.03 and “Maintenance and Repair” DV 77513.04 manuals.
The manuals contain the following sections :

1.2. Purpose
The SAR-DF 517 product is a general direction finder, developed for professional SAR (search
and rescue) purposes. This Direction Finder (DF) is a multiband type (118MHz…410MHz)
working with the physical Doppler-Effect.
It offers the possibility to bear and analyse traditional emergency frequencies in the UHF and
VHF band and the maritime radio band .The Cospas/Sarsat emergency signal is bearable,
despite its very short pulse length, too. It is also possible to decode and display the
Cospas/Sarsat message information.
The excellent bearing result become possible by the newly developed and patented antenna
concept (small, robust and wide-banded) and the sophisticated bearing analys is algorithms
(very complex hardware and software averaging), which deliver a quick, but nevertheless,
steady indication.
The direction finder is designed for working under rough conditions such as mobile uses on
helicopters, airplanes or vehicles.
The complete DF system comprises two units:
•Antenna Unit (AU)
•Display Control Unit (DCU)

The Display Control Unit (DCU) is the indicating and controlling instrument of all functions of
the direction finder. It can be seen as an interface between the direction finder and the
operator.
The Antenna Unit (AU) contains the direction finder, prober, the “heart” of the whole system,
comprising four modules. This Antenna Unit is an independent system, all calculations of
bearing and decoding (hard- and software) take place here.
