1.1
DPU, SWITCH, DISPLAY CABLE INSTALLATION
1.1.1
DPU Mounting
The unit should not be mounted in the engine compartment, but
rather in a dry cool cabin location with easy accessibility for wiring,
installation and removal. Approximately every 8 years, an internal
lithium battery pack module will need to be replaced. Also, if you have
a ‘Fuel Level System’ then you will need to initially remove the DPU to
replace the internal database chip after recording data for your
custom fuel level and/or checklist database chip.
1.1.2
Wiring of DPU Harness Connectors P1 and P2
There are two D-Style connectors on the DPU, J1 and J2. You will
fabricate the mating harnesses by wiring the included connectors P1
and P2. All power, ground and transducer wires (except fuel level
transducers) connect to the DPU harness connectors. Refer to
’APPENDIX B’ and ‘APPENDIX C’ for DPU wiring connections.
NOTE: On P1, all cable shield wires are to be connected to the
system shield wire, which is then connected to P1-1. The braided
shield wire at the transducer end should be snipped off.
1.1.3
Wiring of DPU Display Cable Harness
The display cable is simply fabricated by positioning the connectors
on the flat ribbon cable where they are required, then crimping them
onto the cable and finally installing the flat cable shielding (if optionally
included in kit).
See ‘APPENDIX D: Display Cable Fabrication‘.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
REVIEW: ‘Connector Wiring Techniques’ section prior to wiring
the connectors. Special solder flux MUST BE USED for the CHT,
EGT or TIT connections.
DO NOT: connect ‘DPU power input’ to the same aircraft circuit
breaker as ‘BACKLIGHT power input’.
DO NOT: connect ‘Volt Sense Wire’ to a point, which does not
have breaker, or fuse protection.
DO NOT: allow static electricity to contact any terminal. Always
discharge yourself to ground first !
