Page 11: Installation & Wiring
The ACH1000 Control Head has no licensing requirements. COOLING AIR REQUIREMENTS The ACH1000 has very low power usage so forced air cooling is not required for any of the components. However, units should be kept away from heat sources. AIRCRAFT INTERFACES The ACH1000 operates independent of aircraft navigation systems. -
Page 12: Wire Harness Fabrication & Installation Considerations
POWER WIRING To assure that the ACH1000 will operate properly down to its rated minimum input voltage, ensure that power wires of at least the recommended size are connected in accordance with the installation drawings. -
Page 13: Optional Visual/Audio Alert Feature
OPTIONAL VISUAL/AUDIO ALERT FEATURE A 5V ringer (examples: Mallory SC307N and SNP2) or a 5V LED can be connected to the ACH1000 DB9 connector (between pins 3 and 7) in order to signal incoming calls or messages (see next page’s Wiring Diagram). -
