Equipment
The front bezel of the units can be plated or painted to match the interior
style of any aircraft.
AI source equipment is configured to accept digital infrared commands.
Digital codes allow the source equipment to interface with infrared
handheld remote (AI-RCx-xxx) via infrared receiver IFR-9A. This hand-
held remote control operates functions such as visual search, pause, play,
stop, fast-forward, and rewind.
Multiple units can be controlled independently using available
programming pins. The infrared code allows up to four (4) similar devices
to be used in the same system while maintaining independent control (i.e.
4 VCP’s could be used and each one controlled independently with the
remote control). To install multiple units, contact the nearest AI
representative.
2.0 Installation
2.1
Prior to Installation
The VCP is a small, lightweight unit to use and install. All audio input and
output cables on the units should be twisted shielded pair (24 AWG
minimum) unless otherwise specified. The units must be attached to
conform to the standards designated by the customer, installing agency,
and existing conditions as to the unit location and type of installation. The
following should be carefully considered before installing:
2.1.1 Select a mounting location for the unit where 28 VDC power and
audio signal has been previously installed. These units must be
mounted in a horizontal position (not on side or vertical). Long low-
level runs may introduce noise into the audio signal. Refer to
Section 5.0 Specifications and Drawings for location of mounting
points.
2.1.2 All headphone amplifiers and line level amplifiers should be located
no more than three feet away from source equipment.
2.1.3 Avoid installing the unit where it will be exposed to excessive heat,
excessive moisture, splashing liquids, dusty areas, direct sunlight,
or angled/inclined installations.
