The units are shipped set to operate on 28 Volt back lighting. Equipment can be set to operate on 5V back lighting by using the software based configuration menu. See Section 2.17 Configuration Menu in the TDFM-9200 Operating Instructions manual available at www.til.ca. Damage will not occur if the incorrect voltage is applied.

Connect according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In the case of the FLX-3050B, the tune indicator (which is normally connected to a light) can be connected to pin 10 so that the tuning indication will show on the TDFM-9200 display. If a passive antenna is used, these lines shall remain unconnected.

When single band modules are installed, a single band antenna should be used. If the TDFM-9200 has more than one single band module installed that are on different frequency bands, a single multiband antenna with separate connectors or a multiband antenna with a coupler can be used if the frequencies in use are not multiples of each other.
2.23 POST INSTALLATION EMI TEST PURPOSE The purpose of this test is to identify any interference that the TDFM-9200 transceiver may cause with existing aircraft systems. TEST CONDITIONS The TDFM-9200 transceiver should be installed and function tested. The antenna VSWR should be checked.

Determine if the image frequency for the VOR/ILS Nav falls within the range of the TDFM- 9200. If so, select two sets of frequencies that will cause the TDFM-9200 to be set as close as possible to the image frequency. Choose one set in the localizer frequency range and one in the VOR frequency range.
