General Information
This high resolution Low Profile 10.1”Widescreen LCD is built with retrofit aircraft
integration in mind, this display can switch between three video input sources using an
infrared remote or the control buttons on the bottom face of the unit. It is perfect for cabin
video and graphical entertainment. The FD102CV-LP-S has features that allow installation
in the smallest of mounting areas with the minimum of interface equipment.
Front View
Additional Information
The 10.1” Widescreen LCD utilizes a state of the art digital video decoding chipset for the
analog video input. The three video sources in order of picture quality are VGA (computer
graphics, like Moving Maps), and two (2x) Composite Video (DVD, Camera or VCR). Both
NTSC and PAL formats are auto-detected.
The FD102CV-LP-S can also be connected to existing video switchers and can take a
composite video input from a selector interface box. In this case, multiple input sources
can be selected and displayed on the monitor.

Installation Instructions
All cabin entertainment equipment, such as the FD102CV-LP-S, should be installed on a
non-essential bus and have a dedicated circuit breaker. It is a requirement that a switch be
installed in the cockpit so that the pilot can de-energize the entertainment system should it
become necessary. See mounting specification drawing ICD-129 at end of this manual.
Power
This is a 28VDC monitor that requires .3 Amps of power to operate. The unit turns on
automatically upon power application.
Wiring Suggestions
All shields should be grounded to the connector at the source, and floating at the display.
Avoid routing video wiring parallel to:
•AC wiring
•Strobe wiring
•DC motor supply cables
•Inverter cabling
•Or any other potential noise source

Composite and Audio Wiring
Recommended cable for s-video/composite and audio purposes is PIC 75 Ohm Coax, P/N
V76261. This is a lightweight, flexible, and low signal loss cable which meets FAA
flammability requirements of FAR 23.1359(d), FAR 25.853(a) and FAR 25.869(a)(4).
Similar aviation coaxial cable can be used from other vendors, as well.
Some aircraft are prone to AC noise –we recommend adding to the composite source a
75Ohm video isolation transformer such as Deerfield Laboratory, Inc. Part No. 162-1
(www.deerfieldlab.com, [phone]). In most cases this should be added to the video
output of the source.
VGA Wiring
Recommended cable for VGA purpose is Carlisle (formally known as ECS) P/N 453005. This
is a single shielded cable containing 5 separate coaxial cables, color-coded to match the
functions of the wires.

Power and Ground Wiring
The rated current of the equipment and associated voltage drop should be taken into
consideration when selecting wire gauge. The following example is based on an install
with a 28VDC power system, 1.5-amp equipment load and a total of 50 feet of wire
between the circuit breaker, monitor and ground.
Example: 22awg wire has 16.2 Ohms per 1000 feet, this equates to .81 Ohms for 50 feet.
1.5 Amp of current on .81 Ohms will drop 1.22 Volts.

Also, use short heavy gauge wire and a clean tight connection for ground.
It is the installer's responsibility to understand the product's requirements to install the
product in compliance with industry standards and safety.
Operation Instructions
The FD102CV-LP-S is continuously on but can be de-energized by removing power from
the entertainment system. No pilot or aircrew action is necessary during flight or ground
operation.
Passengers can change the video output from the FD102CV-LP-S using the video source
select switch on the included IR remote.
The IR LED, located on the top of the monitor, must be visible to the remote for wireless
operation.
