Video Wiring Suggestions
Avoid routing video wiring parallel to:
 AC wiring
 Strobe wiring
 DC motor supply cables
 Inverter cabling
 Or any other potential noise source.
Recommended cable for composite is PIC 75 Ohm Coax, P/N V75268. This is a lightweight,
flexible, and low signal loss cable which meets FAA 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
75Ohmvideo 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.
Audio Wiring for Use with Single Ended Audio Inputs. (ie: FDACS)
For best performance, use four individual wires or two twisted pairs in a shielded cable.
The four audio wires would be connected to Left +, Left -, Right +, Right -.
All four wires will run from the Blu-ray player to the destination.
Left + and Right + connect to the Left and Right signal inputs respectively.
Left – and Right – will join together at the destination and connect to the receiving
equipment‟s audio return pin. The shield will be connected to the fuselage at one place
only.

Audio Wiring for Use with Balanced Audio Inputs.
For best performance, use two twisted pairs in a shielded cable or two individual
shielded twisted pairs.
One pair is connected to Left + and Left -. The other pair connects to Right + and Right -
All four wires will run from the Blu-ray player to the destination.
Left + and Left – connect to the receiving equipment‟s Left channel input.
Right + and Right – connect to the receiving equipment‟s Right channel input.
The shield will be connected to the fuselage at one place only.
NOTE: The FD932DVD-BLU has high impedence balanced outputs instead of the more
popular low impedence inputs. This is usually not a problem. External audio level pads may be
installed at the installer‟s discretion.
Power and Ground Wiring
22 AWG or larger wire is recommended for Power and Ground applications.
HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) defines the protocol and electrical
specifications for the signalling, pin-out, electrical, and mechanical requirements of cable
and connectors used for transmitting High-Definition content. The Type A HDMI connector
(shown below) has 19 pins with bandwidth to support all SDTV, EDTV, and HDTV modes.
The plug's outside dimensions are 13.9 mm wide by 4.45 mm high.
ECS manufactures an HDMI cable that is terminated at the factory. It is ordered as part
number 600-19786-XXX, where XXX is the length in inches for the desired cable.

RS485 Commands Cont’d
PA Commands:
“PA ON” will enable PA interrupt.
“PA OFF” will disable PA interrupt.
NOTE: “PA ON” command must be received every 9 seconds or interrupt will time out.
Addresses:
Up to 7 Blu-ray players can easily exist on the same CAN bus. Each unit must have a unique
address assigned to it in the range 1 through 7 to permit the commands issued from the
remote controllers to be received by the correct units. Use the chart below for information on
setting the address of each Blu-ray player. If there is a dot in the pin column of the chart then
connect that pin to Pin 22. Up to three address pins may be connected to Pin 22 at the same
time.
Examples:
If there is a single Blu-ray player in a system, then it should be set to address 1. The player will
be referenced in all Flight Display Configuration Documents as Blu-ray Player #1 or “The Blu-
ray Player.”
If there are two Blu-ray players in a system, then one should be set to address 1 and the other
should be set to address 2. The player that is set to address 1 will be referenced in all Flight
Display Configuration Documents as Blu-ray Player #1. The other Blu-ray Player will be
referenced as Blu-ray Player #2.
If there are three Blu-ray Players, then the Blu-ray player referenced as Blu-ray #1 in the Flight
Display Configuration Documents should be set to address 1, the Blu-ray player referenced as
Blu-ray #2 should be set to address 2, and the Blu-ray player referenced as Blu-ray #3 should
be set to address 3.
This addressing system is used for all installations containing from one to seven players.
