SP-LCD6 is an external switch utilized for monitor set-up. The switch,
which must be ordered separately, provides configuration control via AI’s
proprietary RS-485 digital data bus communication or may be configured
directly to the P2 connector. Refer to Section 3.8, Configuration
Overview, for monitor set up. The SP-LCD6 may be removed and stored
after the monitor is set up or can be mounted near the monitor for frequent
use. Connector P2 provides to the switch panel +28 VDC power and
ground input, serial data bus control, and unit ID strapping pins to allow
programming of multiple units.

Device addressing is accomplished via three (3) ID pins, which allow for a
total of eight (8) monitors to be independently addressed on the data bus.
2.7 The monitor casing is specially designed for EMI and noise filtering,
guaranteeing a reduction in interference to ensure a high-quality display.
2.8 Inside the monitor, a cooling fan ventilates internal components and
prevents undesirable heat buildup. Because this fan is thermostatically
controlled, it only runs when heat build-up requires it, providing a much
quieter viewing experience than many monitors.
2.9 A
shallow
mounting depth makes this monitor ideal for bulkhead use.
Convenient mounting holes are strategically located on the left and right
sides. An optional front cover bezel (see Section 1.3) may be purchased
for added mounting capabilities. Other plating options are available and
allow matching to other cabin décor of the aircraft.
