Brief Description: Wiring EFIS to Radios & ADC
|
|
This entry is a combo of Mon, tues and Today as the week so far has been bits and pieces with most of it occuring during the evenings. The days are spent w/ Dad in the Hosp (4x bypass and a valve replacement), he's doing well and got moved to rehab today. Wiring this panel is tedious work and vies for one of my least favorite things to do. I'm learning new skills at every session. I may go back and redo some of the connections where I've learned some new techniques. Aero-Electric.com has some good examples for how to splice wires, how to daisel chain shields etc. I wish I'd referred to it earlier and I'd have a cleaner set of connections, The D Sub pin's are the easiest part, although you have to be careful. (I'll get the multimeter and perform continuity checks on each path before putting the power to anything). But to ease maintenance and to facuilitate the final install into the panel, I've made some connections using Molex connectors. Additionally the second Op Tech panel get's a parallel set of connections, so each radio, ADC, AHRS, etc. connections get's pigtailed to provide 2 pathe in/out of it. The Op Tech install manual is great, the illustrations are very clear and pretty much a matter of connecting the dots. the Garmin manuals are mixed depending upon whether its the old Apollo units or not. The audio panel has a TON of connections!!!!
