B.
Continued Airworthiness Requirements
(1)
The KGX requires no periodic maintenance or calibration. Maintenance is performed on an
on-condition basis only. The KGX does a POST and is continually tested using a PBIT when
the system is in operation. This method of testing will notify the operator of a failure. System
software updates are accomplished using the MPI.
(2)
Continued airworthiness can also be accomplished by determining the KGX installed system
performance using the FreeFlight Systems FT-9000 Ramp Tester.
C.
KGX Control Panel Operation
(1)
General
(a)
The KGX can interface to a KGX Control Panel used in-flight by the pilot to control output
of ADS-B messages. The KGX Control Panel receives its power from the KGX and
communicates to it through an RS-485 serial port. The KGX Control Panel consists of the
following components (refer to Figure 3001):
• Monochrome LCD
• VFR button
• FN button (function)
• CODE knob
• ENT button (enter)
• Mode selection knob
• IDT button (ident).
