1.2.3 Interfaces

The aviation rack contains an electronic module which provides interfaces to various

general aviation instruments. Figure 1-1 defines the function of each pin on the 15

pin DSUB connector located at the back of the rack. Figure 1-2 depicts the

interconnects between the rack and other instruments. The following interfaces are

provided.

CDI: Capable of driving up to three 1000 ohm parallel

(Pins 1 and 4) loads, +150 millivolts full scale deflection with a

maximum output of +300 millivolts.

To/From: Capable of driving up to three 200 ohm parallel

(Pins 2 and 5) loads, +82 millivolts full scale deflection.

Nav Flag: Capable of driving up to three 1000 ohm parallel

(Pins 3 and 6) loads, 375 millivolts for flag out-of-view, and

+40 millivolts for flag in-view.

OBI data: Output providing bearing to waypoint data for a

(Pins 7, 8, and 12) Bendix/King RMI (KI 229 or equivalent).

Message annunciators: Output capable of driving negative or positive logic

(Pins 9 and 11): annunciators.

Message audio: Output capable of producing 10 milliwatts into 500

(Pin 10) ohms at a frequency of 2 KHz.

RS232 data: Output capable of driving ARGUS3000/5000/7000

(Pin 13) and STORMSCOPE SERIES II with NAVAID moving

map displays and Shadin fuel management system.

Conforms to the EIA specification RS-232C.

SECTION 2 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Careful planning and consideration of the suggestions in this section are required to

achieve the desired performance and reliability from the GPS 100.

2.1 ANTENNA CONSIDERATIONS

2.1.1 SATELLITE VISIBILITY

The GPS 100 Blade or Low Profile Antenna must be mounted on top of the aircraft in

the upright position. For best performance select a location with an unobstructed

view of the sky above the aircraft when in level flight. Figure 2-1 illustrates a typical

blade antenna installation. Recommended installation locations for the Low Profile

Antenna are the same.

Av. Kit Install. Manual

190-00004-00 Rev. G

Page 7

2.1.2 NOISE SOURCES

The antenna should be located at least 3 ft from transmitting antennas such as VHF

Comm, HF transmitter, DME, Transponder, and Radar. Cabling for the GPS 100

should not be routed near components or cabling which are sources of electrical noise.

2.1.3 ELECTRICAL BONDING

No special precautions need to be taken to provide a bonding path between the

antenna and the aircraft structure.

2.1.4 ANTENNA LIMITATIONS

The GPS 100 Blade and Low Profile Antennas are recommended for installations

where the airspeed of the aircraft will be subsonic. For aerodynamic considerations,

the Low Profile Antenna is recommended for operation above 200 kts.

2.2 RACK CONSIDERATIONS

2.2.1 ACCESSIBILITY

Plan a location which gives the pilot complete and comfortable access to the entire

keypad and which is plainly visible from the pilots perspective. Check that there is

adequate depth for the rack in the instrument panel. A location away from heating

vents or other sources of heat generation is optimal. Figure 2-2 illustrates a typical

aviation rack installation.

2.3 CABLING AND WIRING

Use only the antenna cable supplied in the installation kit. Other cabling may lead

to degraded performance. Check that there is ample space for the cabling and mating

connectors. Avoid sharp bends in cabling and routing near aircraft control cables.

2.4 ANNUNCIATORS

If the installation includes any electrical interface with other flight instruments, an

annunciator may be required. Refer to current FAA directives.

3.2 ANTENNA INSTALLATION

The Blade Antenna outline and footprint dimensions are shown in Figure 3-1. The Low

Profile Antenna outline and footprint dimensions are shown in Figure 3-1A. Both

antennas require the same Installation procedure.

A. Using the backing plate as a template, mark the location of the mounting holes and

the through hole for coax cable. Drill or punch the holes.

B. The antenna installation must provide adequate support for the antenna consid-

ering a maximum drag load of 14 lbs (at subsonic speed). Install a doubler plate to

reinforce thin skinned aircraft. Observe guidelines for acceptable installation

practices as outlined in AC 43.13-2A.

C. Seal the antenna and gasket to the fuselage using a good quality electrical grade

sealant. Use caution to insure that the antenna connector is not contaminated with

sealant. Insure that the mounting screws are fully tightened and that the antenna

base is well seated against the gasket. CAUTION: Do not use construction grade RTV

sealant or sealants containing acetic acid. These sealants may damage the electrical

connections to the antenna. Use of these type sealants may void the antenna

warranty.

3.3 CABLE INSTALLATION

A. Route the coax cable supplied to the rack location keeping in mind the recommen-

dations of Section 2. Secure the cable in accordance with good aviation practice.

B. Trim the supplied RG-59/U cable to the desired length and install the BNC

connector (330-00017-00) per the cabling instructions on Figure 3-2.

3.4 RACK INSTALLATION

A. Figure 3-3 shows outline dimensions for the aviation rack. Install the rack in a

rectangular 6.320" x 2.000" hole in the instrument panel. Exercise caution when

installing the rack into the instrument panel. The rack is designed to facilitate removal

of the GPS 100 for portable use. Deformation of the rack may make it difficult to install

and remove the GPS 100.

B. Install the rack in the aircraft panel using four #6-32 countersunk screws and

four self-locking nuts. The screws are inserted from the inside through the holes

in the sides of the rack (see Figure 3-4).

3.5 AVIATION INTERFACE SET-UP

Before installing the GPS 100 into the aviation rack, several operating parameters

need to be set-up so that the GPS 100 can interface properly with the aviation rack

and other avionics. Press the ON button. The Initialization page will appear. See

Chapter 3 in the GPS 100 Owners Manual for information on initialization. Approve

the initialization page.

There are several set-up pages which can be viewed by pressing the SET key. Press

the SET key until the CDI SETTINGS page is displayed. Move the cursor to highlight

the setting for STEER TO. Press the clear key until D-BAR appears. Move the cursor

to highlight the OK and press ENT. Press the SET key to continue through the set-

up pages and set-up the following parameters:

STEER TO> D-BAR

OUTPUT> AVIATION

Ensure that the following parameters are set-up properly for your application. The

following are typical settings for an aviation environment. See Chapter 10 in the GPS

100 Owners Manual for more information on customizing the GPS 100 settings:

CDI SCALE>+ 5.00

>AUTO MAG

NAV> nm kt

ALT> ft FPM

DATUM> WGS 84 or as indicated on navigation charts for the area.

3.6 GPS 100 INSTALLATION

To install or remove the GPS 100 from the aviation rack, see the addendum to the GPS

100 Owners Manual included in the installation kit. This addendum should be given

to the end user.

3.7 PLACARD

After completing the installation, a placard stating GPS limited to VFR use only must

be installed on the panel in clear view of the pilot. The placard may be Garmin p/n

161-00024-00 as supplied with the installation kit, or a suitable equivalent.

SECTION 4 CHECKOUT PROCEDURE

In order to verify the installation, the aircraft must be outside the hanger and well away

from any buildings or aircraft that might block satellite signals. To perform the

checkout procedure it is necessary to be familiar with operating the GPS 100 or to have

the GPS 100 Owners Manual available for reference.
