3.6.2 Instrument Panel
The instrument panel must meet the minimum material thickness of 0.063 inches. It is recommended to
prepare a blank instrument panel prior to installation of the KSD 100EXP and KCP 100EXP. The instrument
panel may be fabricated using the existing Type Certified panel as a template (refer to design
considerations listed below) or blank panel versions may be purchased from the airplane manufacturer.
When fabricating a new panel, the following requirements must be met:
(1) New panel design should be close to the original design. All aspects of the original panel should be
kept (material, panel thickness, structural attachment method, etc.).
(2) If the original panel material data is not available, the avionics installer may use 2024-T3
aluminum. For airplane with original panel thickness of less than 0.063 inches, the new panel
thickness must increase to the minimum required, 0.063 inches. For airplane with original panel
thickness of 0.063 inches or greater, the new panel thickness must match the original panel

NOTE
GPS DATA IS AVAILABLE FROM KSN 770/765 NAVIGATORS THROUGH A RS-232 OUTPUT
BUS (P-EXPRESS BUS). RS-232 SPECIFICATION REQUIRES THIS BUS TO BE A POINT TO
POINT CONNECTION AND IT NOT INTENDED TO BE FANNED OUT. DEPENDING ON
INSTALLATION NEEDS THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ONE DEVICE THAT REQUIRES GPS RS-
232 DATA. DEVICES THAT REQUIRE GPS RS-232 DATA INCLUDE KGX 130X, KT 74
TRANSPONDER, ETC. ONE WAY TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL GPS RS-232 DATA IS BY USING A
KGX 150X. THE KGX 150X HAS INTERNAL GPS, WHICH ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR A RS-
232 GPS INPUT FOR THIS DEVICE. IN ADDITION, THE KGX 150X PROVIDES A RS-232
OUTPUT THAT CAN SUPPLY GPS DATA TO ANOTHER DEVICE SUCH AS A KT 74
TRANSPONDER. IF A KGX 150X IS USED IT WILL REQUIRE A GPS ANTENNA.
NOTE
INSTALLATION OF THE KSD 100EXP ON COMPOSITE INSTRUMENT PANELS IS NOT
COVERED BY THIS MANUAL.
NOTE
INSTALLER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING STRUCTURAL ADEQUACY OF THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL WITH MODIFIED LAYOUT.
