NSTALLATION
A successful installation should start with careful planning including determination of
mounting location for the SL50/60, antenna mounting, connections to microphones, speakers,
and headphones, cable routing, and other required modifications. Once the mounting location
has been determined, prepare the mounting frame for installation. It may be easier to complete
the wiring harness and attach the connectors to the mounting frame before installing the
mounting frame.

ONSIDERATIONS
The SL50/60 is designed to mount in the avionics stack in the aircraft instrument panel within
easy view and reach of the pilot. The standard package includes a mounting frame for ease of
mounting, connections, and service of the unit. Allow an additional one inch clearance to the
rear of the mounting frame for connectors and cables.
For typical installations, the SL50/60 does not require external cooling. When mounting the
unit, leave a clearance of 1/8 to 1/4 inch between avionics to allow for air circulation.
