Honeywell Materials License Agreement
The documents and information contained herein (“the Materials”) are the proprietary data of
Honeywell International Inc. and Honeywell Intellectual Properties Inc (collectively “Honeywell”).
These Materials are provided for the exclusive use of Honeywell Service Centers;
Honeywell-authorized repair facilities; operators of Honeywell aerospace products subject to an
applicable product support agreement, their wholly owned-subsidiaries or a formally designated third
party service provider; and direct recipients of Materials from Honeywell’s Aerospace Technical
Publication Distribution. The terms and conditions of this License Agreement govern your use of
these Materials, except to the extent that any terms and conditions of another applicable agreement
with Honeywell regarding the operation, maintenance, or repair of Honeywell aerospace products
conflict with the terms and conditions of this License Agreement, in which case the terms and
conditions of the other agreement will govern. However, this License Agreement will govern in the
event of a conflict between its terms and conditions and those of a purchase order or
acknowledgement.
1. License Grant - If you are a party to an applicable product support agreement, a Honeywell Service Center agreement,
or an authorized repair facility agreement, Honeywell hereby grants you a limited, non-exclusive license to use these
Materials to operate, maintain, or repair Honeywell aerospace products only in accordance with that agreement.
If you are a direct recipient of these Materials from Honeywell’s Aerospace Technical Publication Distribution and are not a
party to an agreement related to the operation, maintenance or repair of Honeywell aerospace products, Honeywell hereby
grants you a limited, non-exclusive license to use these Materials to maintain or repair the subject Honeywell aerospace
products only at the facility to which these Materials have been shipped ("the Licensed Facility"). Transfer of the Materials
to another facility owned by you is permitted only if the original Licensed Facility retains no copies of the Materials and you
provide prior written notice to Honeywell.
2. Rights In Materials - Honeywell retains all rights in these Materials and in any copies thereof that are not expressly
granted to you, including all rights in patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets. No license to use any Honeywell
trademarks or patents is granted under this License Agreement.
3. Confidentiality - You acknowledge that these Materials contain information that is confidential and proprietary to
Honeywell. You agree to take all reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of these Materials.
4. Assignment And Transfer - This License Agreement may be assigned to a formally designated service designee or
transferred to a subsequent owner or operator of an aircraft containing the subject Honeywell aerospace products.
However, the recipient of any such assignment or transfer must assume all of your obligations under this License
Agreement. No assignment or transfer shall relieve any party of any obligation that such party then has hereunder.
5. Copies of Materials - Unless you have the express written permission of Honeywell, you may not make or permit
making of copies of the Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may make copies of only portions of the Material for
your internal use. You agree to return the Materials and any copies thereof to Honeywell upon the request of Honeywell.

Agreement, you will return these Materials to Honeywell without retaining any copies and will have one of your authorized

OF WHETHER LIABILITY ARISES FROM BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE), BY OPERATION OF LAW, OR OTHERWISE.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL
DMA-37B DME System
B. Purpose of Equipment
(1) The DMA-37B DME System is designed to provide the flight crew with accurate
slant-range distance information in digital format as measured from the aircraft to a
selected ground-based DME transponder. Depending upon the DME display, DMA-37B
adds ground speed and time for the aircraft to reach the selected ground-base station at
the current velocity can be derived from the slant-range.
(2) A DME is co-located at ground-based VHF Omnirange Distance Measuring Equipment
(VOR-DME) and VHF Omnirange Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) stations. The
DMA-37B is capable of receiving the distance measurement from military Tactical Air
Navigation (TACAN) stations. A few DMEs are co-located with ILS systems presenting
distance and aircraft speed to the runway as the aircraft approaches for landing.
(3) DME is used in conjunction with a primary navigation source, like VOR, to measure
distance along a route of flight toward the VORTAC station. For some instrument
approaches, it is used with VOR to fly where a DME arc or VOR-DME equipment is
required for approach.
(4) The DMA-37B DME Interrogator is a very powerful scanning DME. In addition to stations
selected by the crew, it searches automatically for up to five stations within a
300-nautical mile range.
(5) The operating range of the DMA-37B DME System is zero to 300 nautical miles. The
DMA-37B DME System consists of an airborne DMA-37B DME Interrogator, a mount, a
DME indicator, and an antenna.
(6) The DMA-37B DME Interrogator design conforms to industry standards Aeronautical
Radio Incorporated (ARINC) 709-8 Airborne Distance Measuring Equipment, Radio
Technical Commission for Aeronautics (RTCA) document number DO-189 Minimum
Operational Performance Standards (MOPS) for Airborne Distance Measuring
Equipment (DME), and European Organisation for Civil Aviation Equipment
(EUROCAE) ED-54 Minimum Operational Performance Requirements for Distance
Measuring Equipment Interrogator, and digital guidance data conforms to ARINC
429-14 Mark 33 Digital Information Transfer System (DITS) format.
(7) The DMA-37B DME Interrogator is fully interchangeable with the earlier ARINC 709
DMA-37A DME Interrogator for backward compatibility.
(8) In addition, the DMA-37B provides fast scan and digital Morse Code decoding outputs,
fault memory, and built-in test equipment (BITE) interfaces for use in a Central
Maintenance Computer (CMC) in accordance with ARINC 604 to transfer maintenance
data or in a Central Fault Display System (CFDS) in accordance with ARINC 604, and
Airbus Industrie ABDO048C or McDonnell Douglas software requirements.
C. Equipment Part Numbers

3. System Description
A. General
(1) The DMA-37B DME System is an airborne distance measuring system which
determines the slant-range distance from an aircraft to a selected ground based DME
transponder (see Figure 3). The DMA-37B DME Interrogator transmits a pulse-pair
signal on any one of 126 frequencies within the range of 1025 MHz to 1150 MHz. One
hundred of the DMA-37B transmit frequencies are automatically selected by tuning the
NAV control to a frequency between 108.00 and 117.95 MHz. The other 26 frequencies
can be selected by tuning the NAV control to frequencies between 133.30 and 135.95
MHz, these channels are normally used for military TACAN stations. The data loader and
data recorder capability in Figure 3 are used in the -0101, -0202, -0303 only
(2) The signals transmitted by the airborne DMA-37B are received by the ground station
assigned to the selected channel frequency. After a built-in delay of 50 microseconds, a
reply pulse-pair is automatically transmitted on the channel frequency assigned to the
ground station. There are 252 channels within the frequency band of 962 to 1213 MHz
set aside for DME ground stations.
(3) The DMA-37B receives the response to the interrogations and processes these signals
to determine the precise amount of time that has elapsed between transmission of a
pulse pair and reception of the response. The DMA-37B computes the slant-range
distance by subtracting the 50 microsecond delay and dividing the result by 12.359
microseconds (time required for DME signal to travel to and return from a DME ground
station that is one mile away). The distance is computed every time a pulse pair
response is received from the ground station.
(4) An operator initiated self-test feature is also included in theDMA-37B. The self-test is
initiated by pressing the TEST pushbutton on the front panel of the DMA-37B. There are
one or more additional means of initiating the self test; these switches can be located on
the DME tuning source, DME indicator, or an EFIS (electronic flight instrument system)
indicator.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL
DMA-37B DME System
Figure 3.
DMA-37B DMA System
(5) An automatic self-test feature is also built into the DMA-37B. This test is controlled by
the microprocessor program. Approximately once every 1.5 seconds the program
automatically instructs the unit to go into self test. The results of the test are monitored
and compared against information stored in memory. If any results of the test indicate a
malfunction, a DME invalid flag is generated and routed to DME distance users through
the ARINC 429 output.
(6) The DME ground station transmits a station-identification signal along with the other
data. The DMA-37B detects the station-identification signal and applies it to the aircraft
audio system.
(7) The DMA-37B generates a suppression pulse for internal use and also makes the pulse
available at the rear connector of the unit. The pulse can be used to suppress other
receivers when DME interrogation pulses are being transmitted. The DMA-37B can also
receive suppression pulses from external equipment on the mutual suppression line.

4. System Component Description
A. DMA-37B DME Interrogator
(1) The DMA-37B DME Interrogator is packaged in an ARINC 600 Characteristic, 4 MCU
standard form factor case. It contains the electronics required to transmit and receive the
pulse modulated L-band signal required by the ground station transponder and to
interface with the aircraft systems.
(2) The basic -0101, -0202, and -0303 DMA-37B consists of a RF module, a
synthesizer/modulator module, a video processor module, CPU-I/O module, power
supply assembly, HIRF/rear interconnect assembly, front panel assembly, and memory
card interface module (see Figure 4).
(3) The basic -1101 and -1212 DMA-37B consists of a RF assembly, an integrated video
main processor assembly, a variable frequency power factor corrected power supply
assembly, a rear interconnect assembly containing lightning protection, and a front panel
assembly (see Figure 4).
(4) The DMA-37B uses a low insertion force, size two shell, ARINC 600 rear panel
connector with three inserts. The top insert is not used. The middle insert is used for
aircraft interconnections and coaxial antenna connector, and the bottom insert is used
for input power and suppression coaxial connectors. The keying pins are set to index pin
code 03.
(5) Forced air cooling, in accordance with ARINC specification 600, is required for cooling
the DMA-37B.
(6) Data interfaces to the aircraft systems are through slow-speed ARINC 429 ports.
(7) A variety of discrete and strap pins provide additional information to and from the DME.
(8) The -0101, -0202, and -0303 front panel display provides an interface to an operator with
a liquid crystal display (LCD) that is visible from the front of the DMA-37B to display
messages in simple language in one of four modes: normal operation, BITE display,
maintenance, and software loading.
(9) Software loading and data recording to/from the CPU is through the front panel Personal
Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) slot. Intel Series 2 Flash
Cards with capabilities ranging from 1, 2, or 4 megabytes are supported.
(10) Intel Series 2 Flash Cards with capabilities ranging from 4, 10, and 20 megabytes (up to
64 megabytes, when available) are also supported.
(11) Two pushbutton switches allow operator interface with the DMA-37B LCD.
(12) In normal operation, the front panel LCD displays the unit's characteristics: unit
identification, part number, and serial number (-0101, -0202, and -0303 only). The BITE
display mode is activated after manual self-test has been exercised either from the front
panel test pushbutton or remotely. In the BITE mode, BITE status is reported and, in the
event of a detected failure, additional help screens are provided to locate the detected
failure to a module. BITE help pages are provided. In the maintenance mode, a set of
maintenance words are displayed and decoded showing the names of data fields and
the value of the data. Maintenance help pages are provided. For loading software, a
series of screens direct the operator during the data loading process. Software version
and loading status are provided during the update process.
(13) The -1101 and -1212 front panel assembly consists of three easy to see LED indicators
that display the status of the unit.
B. Other Components in the System
(1) Other DMA-37B DME System components are not supplied by Honeywell. Information
on these units must be obtained from their respective manufacturers.

5. Operation
A. General
(1) The DMA-37B DME Interrogator transmits a pair of pulses through the antenna on one
frequency and waits for a ground station reply on a frequency offset by 63 MHz. The
ground station replies to this interrogation 50 microseconds later, somewhat like a
delayed radar reflection.
(2) The 50-microsecond delay allows completion of the interrogation. If not delayed at close
ranges, the returned signal would come back to the receiver before the transmitted
pulses have left the aircraft antenna. When a DME unit measures 50 microseconds from
transmit time until the beginning of the received pulse, the aircraft is at 0.0 mile range.
(3) Like radar, the unit calculates the distance from the station based on speed of the
transmitted pulses through the air, divided by time. Speed of signal propagation equals
one nautical mile per 12.369 microseconds.
(4) Each DME unit must distinguish its own pulse return from other DME returns or squitters
(unsolicited replies emitted by the ground station). To do this, reply/squitter distances
from multiple interrogations are saved and compared to determine actual reply distance
to the ground station. The DME is capable of simultaneously maintaining track of up to
five different ground stations that are tuned by a Flight Management System.
B. Basic Theory
(1) RF Module
(a) This module consists of a single PC board that is mounted in a closed aluminum
chassis. It contains the transmitter, receiver, circulator and a low-pass filter.
(b) The solid-state transmitter contains a six-stage amplifier followed by a 700 W
(typical) final amplifier. The pulse modulation is applied to the first six stages of
amplification. It is tuned to frequencies in the range 1025 to 1150 MHz.
(c) The single-conversion superheterodyne receiver consists of a varactor tuned
preselector, 1-GHz preamplifier, mixer, SAW band-pass filters, and a 63-MHz
logarithmic IF amplifier. The preselector is tuned to frequencies in the 962 to 1213
MHz range.
(d) The circulator routes the transmitter output to the antenna and the antenna received
signal to the receiver. It provides isolation to protect the transmitter output amplifier
devices from reflected signals due to high VSWR conditions.
(e) The low-pass filter prevents internal transmitter harmonics from being passed to the
antenna.
(2) Synthesizer/Modulator Assembly
NOTE: On the -1101 and -1212 units, the synthesizer/modulator assembly has
been combined into the RF assembly.
(a) This module contains the digital frequency synthesizer and transmitter modulator
circuits.
(b) The digital frequency synthesizer supplies an RF signal used both as the local
oscillator input to the receiver mixer and as the low-level CW signal into the
transmitter. This circuit consists of a phase-locked loop and VCO which is tuned to
the desired channel frequency by a serial tuning word supplied by the video
processor module.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL
DMA-37B DME System
(c) The modulator supplies the on/off signal that corresponds to the X or Y pulse pairs
associated with the channel frequency. An interrogation is transmitted by triggering
the series of on/off modulation to control the transmitter amplifier stages that drive
the final amplifier.
(3) Main Processor (CPU and I/O) Assembly
NOTE: On the -1101 and -1212, units the the main processor function and video
processor function have been combined on one module.
(a) This module contains the CPU that executes the signal processing using an
80486SX microprocessor.
(b) It also contains the I/O section consisting of ARINC 429 transmitters and receivers,
and discrete I/O logic to provide the interfaces with other aircraft systems, including
the Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) and displays.
(c) ARINC 429 inputs and outputs are processed by a specially designed ARINC 429
LSI transceiver device. External level converters are used to satisfy the ARINC 429
characteristics for the transmitters and convert input ARINC 429 signals to logic

(4) Video Processor
(a) This module contains a field programmable gate array (FPGA) which is the control
center for the video processor. The video processor provides the following
operations:
• Converts tuning commands from CPU to serial data to tune the transmit/receive
frequency synthesizer
• Generates the corresponding receiver preselector tuning voltage
• Generates the corresponding X or Y pulse modulation for the interrogation
• Generates the output mutual suppression pulse for an interrogation
• Detects the input mutual suppression pulse and inhibits reception and video
processing
• Determines the log IF noise threshold setting
• Starts the range (distance) counter when an interrogation is transmitted
• Digitizes the video signals from the receiver log IF amplifier
• Validates the amplitude, spacing, and width of the digitized video pulse pairs
• Stores the range counter value in a FIFO when each valid pulse pair is decoded
• Analog-to-digital converter devices to process the received signals and BITE
test point voltages
• Generates the audio tone for the Morse code station identity aural output
• Provides for integrity testing.
(5) Power Supply Assembly
(a) This module is a self-contained, high-efficiency power supply that converts the
115 V ac, 400 Hz AC power into the required DC operating voltages. It includes an
EMI filter to reduce electromagnetic interference from being radiated from the power
lines.
(b) The power supply for the -1101 and -1212 units can operate in accordance with the
DO-160E VF 360 Hz to 800 Hz mode and has harmonic content (power factor)
correction.
(6) HIRF/Rear Interconnect
(a) The rear connector assembly provides the interwiring from the aircraft interface to
the internal modules. A combination of series resistors, transorb devices, and ferrite
pin filters provide HIRF and lightning protection.
(b) For the -0101, -0202, and -0303 units only, to prevent High Intensity Radiation
Fields (HIRF) or lightning from affecting operation by entering through rear
connector cables, an HIRF compartment is formed in the rear of the DMA-37B. The
signal and power cables are filtered by using discrete and distributed filter elements
and limiting devices on the rear interconnect module located inside this HIRF
compartment. The filtered lines are then fed to the appropriate points in the
DMA-37B. The DMA-37B is packaged in an aluminum casting. This seamless main
frame ensures HIRF cannot enter the unit through structural seams. The slots
formed by the removable side covers are sealed against HIRF with protective
gaskets and metal covers.

FAULT ISOLATION
1. General
A. Description for -0101, -0202, and -0303 Only
(1) Fault isolation is the process of isolating the source of a system failure to an LRU (line
replaceable unit) or to the aircraft wiring.
(2) For the -1101 and -1212 units, the front panel display indicates the status of the unit. The
top LED shows the internal status and shows RED with an internal fault. The center LED
is normally off and when displaying RED indicates an external failure with either the
ARINC 429 inputs or unit strapping. The bottom LED shows RED if there is a problem
with the antenna connection. A separate connector on the units can be used with an
adapter to show the indications and functionality described below with the LCD
functions. The LEDs show amber during the self test function described in the following
procedure.
(3) Fault isolation in the DMA-37B DME System includes a continuity check of the
interwiring, and the assurance that proper installation techniques and procedures have
been followed.
(4) A functional self test of the LRU can be initiated by pressing the test key pushbutton
switch as designated on the front panel LCD, see Figure 1001. Although the
normal-mode screen indicates that this actuated from the right key, the left key has the
same function if pressed while the DMA-37B is in its normal mode.
(5) A complete functional test of the system can be performed as described in the
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES section of this manual.
(6) Figure 1002 illustrates the control flow of the LCD screens (except for the data loading
and data recording screens).

DMA-37B DME System
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
1. General
A. Description
(1) This section of the manual provides service personnel with installation and maintenance
information for the DMA-37B DME System. Installation instructions are supported by
mechanical outline drawings and an electrical interconnection diagram. These drawings,
located at the back of this section, must be reviewed by the installer, and requirements
peculiar to the airframe must be established before starting the installation.
B. Inspection After Unpacking
CAUTION:
THIS EQUIPMENT CONTAINS ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVE
(ESDS) DEVICES. EQUIPMENT, MODULES, AND ESDS DEVICES MUST
BE HANDLED WITH APPROPRIATE PRECAUTIONS.
(1) Visually inspect the DMA-37B DME System and all associated equipments for possible
damage which can occur during shipment. Inspect for dents, deep abrasions, chipped
paint, etc. If any equipment is damaged, notify the transportation carrier immediately.
(2) A Honeywell test and inspection record and quality report tag is included with each
shipped unit. This notifies the customer that the necessary production tests and
inspection operations have been performed on that particular unit.
(3) One copy of the quality report tag is affixed to each unit by the first assembly inspector.
As the unit proceeds through production and stock to the shipping area, the appropriate
blocks on the test and inspection record of the tag are stamped. This tag accompanies
the unit when it is shipped to the customer. Customers are requested to complete the
quality report portion of the tag and return it to the Honeywell Quality Assurance
Department, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This portion of the tag provides Honeywell with
the necessary information required to evaluate shipping methods as well as test and
inspection effectiveness.
(4) Completed cards are accumulated to provide information for a periodic analysis.
C. Preinstallation Testing
(1) The components in the DMA-37B DME System are adjusted and tested prior to
shipment. Therefore, preinstallation testing is not required. However, if preinstallation
testing of the units is desired, refer to the customer acceptance criteria given in the
Component Maintenance Manual for the appropriate unit in the system. Refer to
Paragraph 4 in the INTRODUCTION section of this manual for a list of related
Component Maintenance Manuals.
D. Equipment Changes and Marking
(1) Honeywell uses a standardized marking system to identify equipment and their
subassemblies which have had changes incorporated. Refer to the front of the
appropriate Component Maintenance Manual for a list of Service Bulletins affecting the
unit.
E.
Interchangeability
(1) The DMA-37B DME System will operate in any installation that complies with ARINC
characteristic 709-8; it also operates as an DME-37A DME System replacement in any
installation that complies with ARINC 709. See Figure 2006 for particulars.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL
DMA-37B DME System
2. Installation
A. General
(1) The DMA-37B DME System must be installed in the aircraft in a manner consistent with
acceptable workmanship and engineering practices, and in accordance with the
instructions set forth in this publication. To make sure that the system has been properly
and safely installed in the aircraft, the installer must make a thorough visual inspection
and conduct an overall operational and functional check of the system on the ground
prior to flight.
CAUTION:
AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE CABLING AND BEFORE INSTALLATION
OF THE EQUIPMENT, A CHECK MUST BE MADE WITH AIRCRAFT
PRIMARY POWER BEING SUPPLIED TO THE MOUNT CONNECTORS TO
MAKE SURE THAT POWER IS APPLIED ONLY TO THE PINS SPECIFIED
IN FIGURE 2006.
B. Location of Equipment
(1) Location of the DMA-37B DME System in the aircraft is not critical, as long as the
environment is compatible with the equipment design. Refer to the Leading Particulars,
Table 5, in the DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION section of this manual. Forced air
cooling is required for cooling the DMA-37B DME Interrogator in accordance with
ARINC Characteristic 600. The associated cooling equipment must be mounted in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
(2) Antenna mounting must be in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions for the
antenna being used. The coaxial cable connecting the antenna to the mount must be as
short and direct as possible and any required bends must be gradual. When two or more
DMA-37B DME Systems are installed in an aircraft, it is necessary to provide adequate
space isolation between antennas of each system to make sure that the use of one unit
does not interfere with reception from another system. A minimum of 35 dB of space
isolation must be provided, and any steps which can be taken to provide further isolation
must be considered.
(3) Control unit location and mounting can be determined by mutual agreement between the
user and airframe manufacturer.
C. Interwiring and Cable Fabrication
(1) General
(a) Figure 2006 is a complete interwiring diagram for a single DMA-37B DME System
and associated components. This diagram requires thorough study before the
installer begins installation of the aircraft wiring.
(b) When two systems are being installed in the aircraft, the interconnecting wiring
shown in Figure 2006, as well as all other installation instructions must be
duplicated.
(c) Cabling must be fabricated by the installer in accordance with Figure 2006. Wires
connected to parallel pins must be approximately the same length, so that the best
distribution of current can be effected. Honeywell recommends that all wires,
including spares, shown in Figure 2006, be included in the fabricated harness.
However, if full ARINC wiring is not desired, the installer must make sure that the
minimum wiring requirements for the features and functions to be used are
incorporated.

DMA-37B DME System
(d) When the cables are installed in the aircraft, they must be supported firmly enough
to prevent movement and must be carefully protected against chafing. Additional
protection must also be provided in all locations where the cables can be subject to
abuse. In wire bundles, the cabling must not be tied tightly together as this tends to
increase the possibility of noise pick-up and similar interference. When routing
cables through the airframe, try to avoid running cables or wire close to power
sources (400-Hz generator, etc). If unavoidable, the cables must cross high-level
lines at a right angle, or high-quality shielded conductors must be used.
(e) If a cable must pass through a bulkhead between pressurized and unpressurized
zones, this passage must conform to the aircraft manufacturer’s specifications.
(f)
The assembler must be knowledgeable of any system variations peculiar to the
installation, and must thoroughly understand the complexities associated with
handling related problems of line lengths, capacitance, and of susceptibility to
interference.
(g) Table 2001 lists the determinants that are the responsibility of the installation
agency for fabrication of the wiring harness. See Figure 2006 also.

(2) Reserved and Spare Wires
(a) If the installer does not wish to connect all wires, he can select wires reserved for
optional functions which his system does not contain and delete these wires. He
must also decide which future spare wires to include in the installation. Reserved
and spare wires are identified in interwiring diagram Figure 2006.
(3) Source/Destination Identifier (SDI) Encoding
(a) A connection is required from the common pin MP6C to the appropriate
source/destination identifier (SDI) pin to identify each DMA-37B in multiple system
installations. Installations having only one DMA-37B must include a connection
identifying it as the No. 1 system. These connections must not be omitted from any
installation. See Figure 2006 notes for the SDI encoding scheme for pins MP1C,
MP1D, and MP1E.
D. Installation of System
(1) Mounting Base
(a) The selected mounting base for the DMA-37B DME Interrogator must be wired
according to the system interwiring diagram, Figure 2006, and installed according
to the manufacturer’s instructions. The mounts are designed to be removed without
rewiring the connectors. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s installation
instructions to install the mount into the airframe.
(b) To wire the mounts into the system, first remove the mount connector cover and
connector plate assembly. Then crimp or solder (as applicable) the interconnecting
wiring to the appropriate connector pins. Finally, return the connector plate
assembly and cover to their original positions.
NOTE: To allow for inspection or repair of the connector, or the wiring to the
connector, sufficient lead length must be left so that the rear connector
assembly can be pulled forward several inches when the mounting
hardware for the rear connector assembly is removed. A bend must be
made in the harness near the connector to allow water droplets, that might
form on the harness from condensation, to drip off at the bend and not
collect at the connector.
