A.
To check the aircraft system interconnections, perform the following:
Check that all cables and interwiring are installed according to the Interwir-
ing and Cable Fabrication instructions. (paragraph 2.2.7 and 2.2.8)
Check that the following functions are properly strapped to reflect the air-
craft system configuration. (paragraph 4.2.3.6)
•
Aircraft/Mode Type
•
Air Data Type
•
Position Type
•
Terrain Display type
•
I/O Discretes Type
•
Audio Menu Type
•
Audio Output Level Type
•
Altitude Monitor Options Type
•
Terrain Display Alternate Pop UP Option
Using the interconnect diagrams (Figures 3-1 through Figure 3-23), check
wiring for proper destinations, opens and shorts.
Check RF Cable for electrical length matching, insertion loss and VSWR.
(See paragraph 2.2.7 and 2.2.8)
Check the transponder and DME interface.
The only required interface between the KMH/KTA TAS and the transponder is
the suppression line. Some installations may use a common control for the tran-
sponder and the TAS. In these cases, the TAS control comes from the transpon-
der control unit.
B.
In conjunction with the system installation, perform a visual inspection.
C.
Perform the Pretest Setup to set the initial conditions to check the operation
and self-test features of the system. The following steps apply and check
the TAS System input power, configure the operational controls, and verify
that the system is ready for testing. It is assumed that the person perform-
ing these tests has a working knowledge of the KMH/KTA TAS System and
the Graphics Unit and is qualified to perform these tests on the aircraft.
Ensure that all aircraft systems are secure and safe. Confirm that 28Vdc
and 26Vac 400 Hz power sources are operational; i.e., check power bus
meter.
