Installation Wiring Diagrams
The following Section contains wiring diagrams for common interfacing equipment to the EFD, ACU,
RSM, and Configuration Module. Although the list of interfacing equipment is quite extensive it does
not cover all compatible equipment. For interfaces that are installed but not shown it is required by
the ICAs that a drawing be made and inserted into the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness. All
other drawings used from this section by the installer must be copied and inserted into the ICA’s.
There will be some GPS receivers not shown on these drawings that will be compatible with the
EFD1000 E5 system. The EFD1000 E5 is compatible with ARINC 429, RS-232, and analog GPS
receivers. It will be up to the installer to verify the interface is fully functional by performing a
complete GPS manufacturer’s ground check of the system.
There are also VLOC receivers not shown in these drawings that can be connected either by ARINC
429 to the EFD or through VOR composite video into the ACU or ACU2. Any radio with a nominal
output of 0.5Vrms VOR or 0.35Vrms Localizer composite video format are supported. It will be up to
the installer to verify the interface is fully functional by performing a complete VOR manufacturer’s
ground check of the system.
The EFD1000 E5 with ACU or ACU2 emulates a Bendix King KI-525A, a NSD-360A, and a PN-101 HSI
by providing outputs for HDG Datum and CRS Datum to an autopilot. The EFD1000 E5 is compatible
with any autopilot that is compatible with a KI-525A, NSD-360A, or PN-101 HSI. Should connections
be made to an autopilot not shown in these drawings the installer must verify the interface is fully
functional by performing a complete ground and flight check of the system per the autopilot
manufacturer’s installation manual or maintenance instructions.
To begin planning the electrical installation, select the drawing in the list below preceded by an
asterisk, “*”, that matches the aircraft equipment configuration, and then wire as shown. NAV1 and
the autopilot are options on each page. Simply make the connections to the equipment you plan to
install and omit the units from the drawing you don’t. You will configure the system later based
upon the Configuration ID#s shown in the Configuration Matrix on each drawing. Aspen Avionics Inc.
uses the terms “GNAV” when referring to a combination GPS/VLOC Receiver with an integral CDI
source select (i.e., GNS-430), “GPS” for a standalone GPS Receiver (i.e., GNS-400, KLN90B), and
“VLOC” for stand-alone VOR/Localizer equipment (i.e. KX-155, SL30).
