Honeywell Bendix/King KY 196B Installation Manual page 11

2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
This section contains suggestions and factors to consider before installing the KY 196B. Close
adherence to these suggestions will assure more satisfactory performance from the equipment.
2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
Unpack the equipment carefully and inspect each item for evidence of damage incurred during
shipment. If a damage claim must be filed, save the shipping container and all packing materials
to substantiate your claim. The claim should be filed with the transportation company as soon as
possible. The shipping container and packing material should be saved in any case in the event
that storage or reshipment of the equipment is necessary.
2.3 EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
The KY 196B installation will conform to standards designated by the customer, installing agency,
and existing conditions as to the unit location and type of installation. However, the following
suggestions should be considered before installing the KY 196B. The installing agency will supply
and fabricate all external cables. The connectors required are supplied by Honeywell International
Inc.. Interconnect diagrams are included in this manual as
table below for compatible installations.

*2 Button/Bezel backlighting not operative.
*3 If installation utilizes external audio amplifier.
NOTE: 064--01084--0201 is not compatible with other KY 96A/196A/197A installations, due to the
5 volt panel lighting and Bezel difference.
Use good quality stranded wire with at least 600V insulation that will
not support a flame.
2.3.1 AVIONICS COOLING REQUIREMENTS FOR PANEL MOUNTED EQUIPMENT
The most important contribution to improved reliability of avionics equipment is to limit the
maximum operating temperature of each unit. While modern designs consume less total
energy, the heat dissipated per unit volume (Watts/cubic inch) remains much the same due
to contemporary high density packaging techniques. While each individual unit may or may
not require forced air cooling, the combined heat generated by several units operating in
