Section I. DESCRIPTION OF OPERATOR'S CONTROLS AND INDICATORS 2-1.  Airborne Guidance Unit (AGU). a. AGU Activation Switch. (See Figure 2-1.) The AGU activation switch is a spring-loaded switch which is tied to the rigging in such a manner that it is automatically turned on by deployment of the parachute. Unless the parachute has been deployed, this switch is kept off by inserting a tab into the switch assembly. When the parachute is deployed, the tab is extracted from the switch assembly by a lanyard attached to the deployment bag and the switch is turned on. This conserves battery life since the AGU is turned on only during parachute deployment. 2-2
