    For example, programming a soft key to CHAN would be redundant since there is already a channel function using the knobs. Using the CHAN soft key would also not update the channel number on the display, causing some confusion. TDFM-7000 Installation & Operating Instructions TiL 05RE375 Rev n/c Issue 13...

    Pressing the BAND key will select the next band in sequence. A solid arrow will indicate which band is selected. If the TDFM-7000 audio routing (see the configuration menu) is set up in single mode, the band key also acts as the transmit select.
  • Page 16 It is possible to use Motorola’s Customer Programming Software (CPS™) to alter the default keypad settings of the TDFM-7000 radio. However if custom key settings are chosen it will not be possible for Technisonic to help the Pilot or other Radio User through operational difficulties.

    3.18 POST INSTALLATION EMI TEST PURPOSE The purpose of this test is to identify any interference that the TDFM-7000 transceiver may cause with existing aircraft systems. TEST CONDITIONS The TDFM-7000 transceiver should be installed and function tested. The antenna VSWR should be checked.
  • Page 37 For example it is permissible for a VFR certified GPS to lose navigation capability while the TDFM-7000 unit is transmitting, providing that it recovers properly and promptly, but it is not permissible for an IFR Approach certified GPS to be affected in the same way.
  • Page 38 Determine if the image frequency for the VHF Comm falls within the range of the TDFM- 7000. If so, select a set of frequencies that will cause the TDFM-7000 to be set as close as possible to the image frequency. Any one of the many possible sets will suffice. Record those values in the spaces provided in the following chart.
  • Page 39 Determine if the image frequency for the VOR/ILS Nav falls within the range of the TDFM- 7000. If so, select two sets of frequencies that will cause the TDFM-7000 to be set as close as possible to the image frequency. Choose one set in the localizer frequency range and one in the VOR frequency range.
