    SIGMETs, etc.) information, system health/status, etc. are output on multiple configured serial links and/or discrete signals to be connected to pilot displays. In Figure 1, the installation shows a display controller, KGX 150 transceiver, two UAT antennas, and a GPS antenna. Additionally, connections are shown to an external altitude sensor (shared with the transponder), the transponder suppression bus, and an air/ground detection switch.
  • Page 48 SYSTEM INSTALLATION MANUAL 89000016 Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 for a typical installation. These figures also depict installations using an aircraft mounted KGX WiFi module in place of a dedicated MPI port. This allows traffic and weather data to be shared with a portable electronic device in flight, and can be used to simplify system configuration during maintenance activities.
  • Page 49 SYSTEM INSTALLATION MANUAL 89000016 Figure 2. (Sheet 1 of 1) Typical KGX 150R/130R Receiver Installation The main difference between installations is the receiver installation does not require any connections to a transponder or transponder transmit control and is not required to obtain pressure altitude data from the same altitude sensor used by the transponder.

Selecting appropriate UAT antenna locations is critical to the correct performance of the KGX. The following considerations must be taken into account when selecting the antenna location.
  • Page 78 SYSTEM INSTALLATION MANUAL 89000016 The antenna must be mounted on the bottom and/or top surface of the aircraft and in a vertical position when the aircraft is in level flight. Avoid mounting the antenna within 3 feet (91.44 cm) of the ADF sense antenna or any COMM antenna and 6 feet (182.88 cm) from the transponder and DME antennas.
  • Page 79 General The antenna must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Selecting appropriate GPS antenna locations is critical to the correct performance of the KGX 150 series. The following considerations must be taken into account when selecting the antenna location.
  • Page 80 Antenna Power The internal GPS of the KGX 150 series utilizes an active antenna which means the antenna includes a low noise amplifier. The power for the low noise amplifier is provided from the GPS receiver through the antenna coax cable.
  • Page 81 NOTE: Certified installations must be approved by a STC or a TC. TSO-C145c (KGX 150 Series Only) “The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance standards. Those installing this article, on or in a specific type or class of aircraft, must determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within the TSO standards.
  • Page 82 To comply with the G-Dest category, the KGX 150 series with an internal GPS operates neither at altitudes above 60,000 feet (18,287 meters) MSL, nor at velocities more than 513 m/sec (about 1,000 knots). If either condition is detected, the GPS discontinues outputting signals and position data on its RS-232 port.
