Additional Conditions of Utilization For more details please refer to I&O manual: → AR620X Family. http://www.becker-avionics.com/downloads/ Non Warranty Clause We checked the contents of this publication for compliance with the associated hard and software. We can, however, not exclude discrepancies and do therefore not accept any liability for the exact compliance.
The retrofit work depends on the type of aircraft and its equipment. Therefore, this instructions only provides general information. 1.2. Device Assignment This manual is valid for the following devices: • Retrofitting AR4201 → AR6201 AR6201 Retrofit-Instructions Issue 01 November 2016...
Technical Instruction Preparation - Transceiver Replacement Preparation - Transceiver Replacement 2.1. Visual Inspection • Inspect the structure of the VHF-COM installation area to be free from any mechanical defect like cracks or deformation. In case of any findings involve qualified and authorized personnel for trouble shooting and repair before performing retrofit-instructions.
AR4201 → AR6201 3.1. In most cases, a retrofit of the AR4201 with an AR6201 will not cause any problems. In a few cases differences may occur due to pin incompatibility. The AR4201 normally is mounted from the rear side of the instrument panel.
Technical Instruction Replacement of the Transceiver 3.2.1. Dynamic Microphone Input Retrofitting an AR4201 with the AR6201 in a typical glider installation with a dynamic microphone is shown below: Figure 3-1: AR6201 with Wiring Interface for AR4201 Connect the cable shielding to pin P1-6, which is the low side input for dynamic microphone. Because in AR6201 this input is balanced, the cable shield is no longer connected to ground (unlike it was with the AR4201).
Technical Instruction Replacement of the Transceiver 3.3. Verification • Check that the AR6201 is fixed correctly. • Check that the AR6201 wirings are completed. • Check the power supply lines and confirm correct polarity. • Check the power supply protection (fuse or circuit breaker). For the AR6201 a 7.5 A external circuit breaker or fuse shall be installed.
For details about "Installation Setup” please refer to I&O manual: → AR620X Family http://www.becker-avionics.com/downloads/ Note: It is assumed that the "Configuration Setup" has been done before the Post Installation Tests will be carried out. Once the 620X is installed, complete a test procedure to verify system functionality. Ensure compliance with authority required procedures.
Technical Instruction Post Installation Test 4.1.5. Interference Check • Check the 620X while engine is running and all other avionics/ electrical systems on the aircraft are powered, to verify that no significant interference exists. • Check also that the 620X does not cause significant interference with other systems. The installer´s standard test procedure may be used for the interference check and the table can be taken as a reference.
Technical Instruction Post Installation Test 4.2. Magnetic Compass Interference Test • Check the interference of the magnetic compass in 30° steps over a full 360° turn. • Record the found deviation from the aircraft compass deviation table after the AR6201 installation.
In the airplane flight manual (AFM), weight, balance and electrical load records shall be updated after successful completion of this retrofit work.
