the instructions provide with the USB-6A unit.
2.21 Install the FM-SC or AC-1 Converter (Optional):
The FAA PMA'd FM-SC and AC-1 are used to convert engine data from a FADEC unit to the MVP-50. To

2.23 Installing the EDC-33P:
The EDC-33P (Engine Data Converter) converts all of the analog engine signals into serial data which is output
to the MVP display via two wires (RS422). The EDC unit measures
4.5" long by 3.5" wide by 2.2" high. There are three 37-pin D-sub
connectors that interface to the various probes, modules or direct
connections to the aircraft.
Mount the EDC (with the connectors pointing down) on the inside
firewall under the aircraft instrument panel or in an equipment bay.
For a twin-engine aircraft the EDC can be mounted on the opposite
side of the firewall of the engine or in the cabin or equipment bay.
Use the holes in the bottom plate of the EDC to mount the unit. Be sure you will have enough room to connect
the three D-sub connector wire harnesses to the EDC. Note: If you run out of channels on the EDC, a second
EDC may be installed and connected to the MVP.
