1 HGSII 1 General 1.1 Preface This manual describes the function and the use of the Fragmentation hand grenade simulator and the Stun hand grenade simulator. The simulator has a predefined configuration that sets functional parameters. 1.2 Attentions general The attentions included in the manual are divided into the following groups: WARNING! A Warning shows a hazard which can cause injury. CAUTION! A Caution shows a danger which can cause damage to the equipment.

HGSII 2 Introduction 2.1 Overview Fig 1.
2 HGSII Fig 2.
HGSII 2.2 Description There are two types of hand grenade simulators: Fragmentation hand grenade simulator and Stun hand grenade simulator. The simulators look different and have (via radio transmissions) a different impact on the target system. Both simulators contain a lever unit, a top cover, a mid cover and a pyro unit. The lever unit is equipped with a safety pin and safety lever for correct handling during training. The mid cover surrounds the electronic part which e.g. holds the battery unit.

HGSII There are three labels on the mid cover: the customer label, the SAAB label, and the test and inspection label. Fig 5. Labels 1 Customer label 2 SAAB label 2.2.1 3 Test and inspection label Cartridge information A cartridge (Mini FBSS Buzzer or Mini FBSS) needs to be installed in the pyro unit for the simulator to work. Mini FBSS Buzzer is a dummy cartridge and a detonation is characterized by sound and LED flash.
2 HGSII WARNING! Use helmet, safety glasses and ear protection (in-ear and normal ear protection) when operating the simulator. WARNING! Make sure all participants are wearing helmet, safety glasses and ear protection (in-ear and normal ear protection). Fig 6.
HGSII Fig 7. MiniFBSS cartridge 2.3 Pairing information The Hand grenade simulator can be paired to a PDD, the function (IR pairing) is optional (Enable/Disable). When the pairing is performed, the ID number for the PDD will be set in the Hand grenade simulator. The ID number will be sent to the affected targets at detonation. In the After Action Review it is possible to see which PDD threw the Hand grenade simulator. If the function is disabled, the simulator sends ID number 0.
2 HGSII WARNING! Remove the pyro unit before removing the lever unit to avoid unintentional detonation. 2.4.1 Effective range The effective range of the Hand Grenade Simulator is similar to that of a real grenade. This is achieved through short range radio transmissions from the simulator to target systems. As an option it is possible to send laser code messages as a complement to radio. 2.4.2 Ammunition code At detonation, the Hand grenade simulator sends an ammunition code.
HGSII 2.6 Hit probability The Hand grenade simulator can kill, wound or shock a target system. The Hand grenade simulator can be set with a combination of all 3 hit probabilities. For example the simulator can be set with a 10% chance of a kill, 20 % of a wound and 40% shock. Totally a 70% chance for the target system to be affected and a 30 % chance to only achieve a near miss event. Each target system receiving a hit will also individually evaluate the effect of the detonated Hand grenade simulator.

5 HGSII 5 Operation 5.1 LED indications Table 5. LED indications Hand grenade simulator LED Indication Green single flash every 5th sec. Ready mode. Battery OK, pyro OK, lever unit OK. Green double flash. Not ready mode. Battery OK. Lever unit OK. No/used pyro. Red single flash. Battery warning, change battery Red double flash. White flash. Detonation mode. White flash every 5th sec. Search mode. No flash. Used mode. 5.2 Cartridge installation 1. Remove the pyro unit. Fig 13.
HGSII WARNING! Remove the pyro unit before removing the lever unit to avoid unintentional detonation. 2. Install the cartridge (dummy or Mini FBSS) in the pyro unit. Fig 14. Cartridge installation 3. Reinstall the pyro unit. 5.3 Pair the simulator with a PDD (optional) 1. Remove the pyro unit. Make sure status LED double flashes green every 5th sec. 2. Install the pyro unit. Note! Whenever the pyro unit is installed, the IR setup interface is activated for 2 min. to enable pairing.
5 HGSII Note! When re-pairing a loaded simulator, the pyro unit needs to be un-installed for 5 sec. before reinstallation to activate the IR setup interface. 3. Aim the Hand grenade simulator IR setup interface towards the IR interface on the PDD. Hold the IR interfaces about 10 centimeters from each other. 4. The PDD will generate a sound message when it is paired with the Hand grenade simulator. Note! The Hand grenade simulator has to be paired again after a battery installation and after detonation.
HGSII 2. Hold the safety lever and remove the safety pin. Depending on safety pin version, the safety pin is removed by "pull" or "twist and pull" (twist 180). Fig 15. Safety pin removal Note! Always remove the safety pin before the Hand grenade simulator is thrown. WARNING! Never throw the Hand Grenade Simulator directly at personnel. WARNING! Make sure that no-one is closer than 10 cm from the Hand grenade simulator when detonated.
5 HGSII WARNING! When the Mini FBSS is fired the maximum sound level is approximately 187 db (C) at 10 cm. High sound level can cause hearing injury. WARNING! The Mini FBSS can cause burn injury if detonated closer than 10 cm. WARNING! Keep at a safe distance to flammable material. 3. Throw the Hand grenade simulator. Note! When the Hand grenade simulator is thrown, the safety lever will automatically be released which triggers the detonation.
HGSII WARNING! Remove the pyro unit before removing the lever unit to avoid unintentional detonation. 2. Remove the lever unit. 3. Make sure all visual parts are clean. To clean the simulator, see chapter Clean the equipment. 4. Replace the lever unit, i.e. install a new lever/not damaged unit. 5. Replace the cartridge (dummy or Mini FBSS) in the pyro unit. 6. Reinstall the pyro unit. 7. Optional, pair the simulator with a PDD, see chapter Pair the simulator with a PDD (optional).
6 HGSII 6 Maintenance 6.1 Clean the equipment 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Remove all loose dust and dirt with a soft brush. Clean all parts with a damp sponge. Clean optical surfaces with a lens cleaning tissue. Dry all equipment with a dry cloth. All carbon deposits must be removed from the simulator. Clean the cartridge contact surface with regular weapon oil. 6.2 Battery replacement 1. See chapter Battery installation.
