  • Page 8: General Information

    The SN3308 is designed to display the downloaded flightplan data from a connected GPS receiver or from a Jeppesen database (available on software version 2.00 or later). The moving map database for the SN3308 as well as the internal operating system software are field uploadable through the use of a portable computer equipped with a Windows operating system and an RS-232C Serial Port.

  • Page 9: Installation Planning

    Contact the factory with any questions about interfacing to specific avionics equipment not covered in the installation drawings. To simplify installation and installation planning, signals are wired to the SN3308 pins per the installation diagrams and software setups are used in a post-installation procedure to assign protocols/gradients to each pin based on the equipment connected.

  • Page 10: Interface Planning

    SN3308 for reference. Review special items such as connection of the Nav receiver resolver wiring. Apply power to the SN3308, bring up in maintenance mode (see page 41) and sequentially access each SN3308 maintenance page to correctly select the installed equipment.

    A separate brightness control only for the SN3308 must be installed externally. The SN3308 does not have an internal photocell, so the pilot must be able to adjust the dimming of the SN3308 separately from the other avionics. This control allows the pilot to control the brightness of the display from 0% to 100% of normal brightness.
