Power; Wiring Suggestions; Composite Wiring - FDS FD141CV-C-6 Installation And Operation Manual

Power

This is a 28VDC monitor that requires 2.0 Amps of power to operate. The unit turns on
automatically upon power application. See Power and Ground Wiring below for more
details.

Wiring Suggestions

Avoid routing video wiring parallel to:
 AC wiring
 Strobe wiring
 DC motor supply cables
 Inverter cabling
 Or any other potential noise source

Composite Wiring

Recommended cable for composite and audio purposes is PIC 75 Ohm Coax, P/N
V76261. This is a lightweight, flexible, and low signal loss cable which meets FAA
flammability requirements of FAR 23.1359(d), FAR 25.853(a) and FAR 25.869(a)(4).
Similar aviation coaxial cable can be used from other vendors, as well. Some aircraft are
prone to AC noise - we recommend adding to the composite source a 75Ohm video
isolation transformer such as Deerfield Laboratory, Inc. Part No. 162-1
(www.deerfieldlab.com, (650) 632-4090). In most cases this should be added to the video
output of the source.
