GPS/NAV SWITCHING & ANNUNCIATOR PANEL
1.5 EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
The AK-950 series control units contain specifie dash numbers to be
used with various GPS receivers. The installer must match the correct
controller part number with the GPS receiver being installed.
This equipment GPSINAV switching & Annunciator Panel is approved
for installation with the following mode! number only:
GPS mode! GNS 430 1530 1530W
Garmin International Inc.
Installation
of this equipment to any other GPS is disapproved.
The condition and tests required for TSO approval
of this article are
minimum performance standards.
lt is the responsibility ofthose desiring
to install this article either on or within a specifie type or class
of aircraft
to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within the TSO
standards. The article may be installed only if further evaluation by the
applicant documents an acceptable installation and
is approved by the
Administrator.
NOTE: Anytime the AK-950 is disconnected or removed from the
aircraft, the HSI 1CDI will be inoperative in both NAY (VOR) and GPS.

SECTION Il
INSTAllATION AND TEST
2.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EOUIPMENT
2.2
2.2.1
Extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Visual inspection
of the equipment for evidence of damage incurred during
shipment.
Any claim should be promtly filed with the
transportation
company. Save the shipping container to
subtantiate the claim. Retain the container and packaging
material
for possible future use.
MECHANICALINSTALIATION
The AK-950 is designed with the installer in mind. Ali
accessories
which are required for completing system
installation are provided, including Pre-fabricated Wiring Cable
Assembly.
EOUIPMENT LOCATION
The AK-950 must be mounted as close to the pilot's field of
view as possible. The preferable location is near the HSI 1CDI
that will be displaying the FPS information. The unit depth,
with connecter atttached, must also be taken into
consideration.
Avoid
mounting close to heater vents or other high heat
sources.
The indicator is secured in place behind the panel since
it is
designed
for rear mount only. Make a panel cutout as shown
in Figure 2-1. Secure the indicator in place with four 4-40 x
3/8 to 1 .0" flat head phillips screws.
2.2.2 COOLING
No direct cooling is required.
As with any electronic
equipment, overall reliability
may be increased if the AK-950 is
not located near any high heat source or crowded next to ether
equipment. Means of providing a gentle air flow will be a plus.

ADDITIONAL ANNUNCIATIONS
Depending upon the installation and approving agency, you may
be required to provide additional NA V Source Select external
annunciators near the HSI 1COl. Spare relay
contacts on the
AK-950 connector may be used for this purpose.
ADDITIONAL RELAYS
ROUTING
OF CABLES
Care
must be taken not to bundle the AK-950 logic and low
level signal lines with any high energy sources. Examples of
these sources include 400 Hz AC, Comm, DME, HF and
transponder
transmitter coax. Always use shielded wire when
shawn on the installation print. Avoid sharp bends in cabling
and routing near
aircraft control cables.
2.3 ELECTRICALINSTALLATION
Refer
to figure 3-1 for Schematic Pinout Assignment for
Connector, and figure 3-2 for Electrical Schematic Diagram.
Wire the aircraft harness according to figure 3-3
Use at least 24 AWG wire for ali connections. Vou
MUST use shielded
wire where shawn. Avoid sharp bends and
routing cable near high energy sources. Care
must be taken to
tie the harness away from aircraft contrais and cables. Normal
installation techniques should be applied.
