The Helicopter Approach Path Indicator - HAPI system consists of a single lighting to provide a visual indication of the correct approaching path of the helicopter.
The HAPI uses patented, LED-based optics to achieve the lowest power consumption, highest intensity and sharpest green/red transition.

Features
The HAPI System has a module with lights which has a lens system that divides the light into 4 separate segments:
1. Flashing Green Light = Helicopter above the optimal approach slope (too high)
2. Fix Green Light = Helicopter on the slope
3. Fix Red Light = Helicopter slightly below the optimal slope (slightly too low)
4. Flashing Red Light = Helicopter below the optimal slope (too low)
5. Depending on the viewing angle of the pilot in relation to this system, he sees either the Flashing green or the Fix green or the Fix red or the Flashing Red light.
6. The signal repetition rate of the flashing sectors must be greater than 2 Hz. In accordance with ICAO, the HAPI is capable of adjustment in elevation at any desired angle between 1 and 12 degrees above the horizontal with an accuracy of +/- 5 minutes of arc. The HAPI System will switch off atomically when the vertical misalignment of a unit exceeds ±0.5 degrees (±30 minutes).
