•

Environmental splices

•

Ring terminals for grounding

•

Static pressure lines and fittings

•

Thread locking compound. (We recommend Loctite® 242 or 243

which works well with stainless steel hardware.)

Minimally, ZPX-A installation requires access to the following tools:

•

Screwdriver or another appropriate driver

•

Appropriate crimping tool(s) or soldering equipment

7.4 Additional Required Equipment

ZPX-

A is a “remote” transponder. To fully function it requires connection to

a controlling device, often referred to as a control head in a manned
platform or Ground Control Station (GCS)

– via a flight computer – for an

unmanned platform. It is possible to provide ZPX-A a with static
configuration for autonomous operation, but capabilities such as changing
squawk code and responding to annunciations will not be possible without
an interactive control device.

For transmission of complete ADS-B data elements, and 14 CFR
§91.225 compliance, ZPX-A requires connection to a compliant
position source

– typically a GPS with TSO-C145e or equivalent.

The following table details the functions provided directly by ZPX-A.

7.5 Mounting

ZPX-A is designed to be mounted in any convenient location: cockpit,
cabin, avionics bay, or affixed in some other way to the airborne platform.

The following installation procedure should be followed, taking care to allow
adequate space for installation of cables and connectors.
