approved location for standby instruments.
Any air-driven AI may be used to provide back-up attitude. If an electronic standby AI is used, it must be
connected to a bus that receives power as soon as the battery master switch is turned on. If the airplane
has multiple power buses, the xVue Touch System and the standby AI should be connected to the
“essential” bus. If there is more than one “essential” bus, the standby AI should be connected to a
different “essential” bus than the xVue Touch System equipment. The electronic AI requires a battery
pack or emergency power system that meets the 30 minute operational requirement. If using a standby
attitude indicator that allows for configuration between fixed and movable roll indication, fixed pointer
should be used.
3.6.3.3 Standby Airspeed Indicator
The existing airplane Airspeed Indicator (ASI) may be retained for use as a standby instrument. Either
two-inch or three-inch standby instruments may be used. If an electronic standby ASI is used, it must be
connected to a bus that receives power as soon as the battery master switch is turned on. If the airplane
has multiple power buses, thexVue Touch System and the standby ASI should be connected to the
“essential” bus. If there are more than one “essential” bus, the standby ASI should be connected to a
different “essential” bus than the xVue Touch System equipment. The electronic ASI needs a battery pack
or an emergency power system that meets the 30 minute operational requirement.
3.6.3.4 Standby Altimeter
The existing airplane altimeter must be retained for use as a standby instrument if it is used as the
altitude source to a retained system. Either two-inch or three-inch standby instruments may be used. If
an electronic standby altimeter is used, it must be connected to a bus that receives power as soon as the
battery master switch is turned on. If the airplane has multiple power buses, the xVue Touch System and
the standby altimeter should be connected to the “essential” bus. If there are more than one “essential”
bus, the standby altimeter should be connected to a different “essential” bus than the xVue Touch
System equipment. The electronic altimeter needs a battery pack or an emergency power system that
meets the 30 minute operational requirement.
The static port and airspeed tape / altimeter must be verified in accordance with 14 CFR Part 91.411 and
Part 43 Appendix E.
3.6.4 Required GPS Navigator
Interfacing the xVue Touch System to the GPS Navigator is required for proper system operation. GPS
information is used by the xVue Touch System for the moving map and for the KG 71EXP GPS aided
attitude. At least one WAAS/ GPS navigator is required although the xVue Touch System can support two
independent Navigators. Different model navigators may be used. See Section 3.6.1 xVue Touch System
Interfaces for applicable navigators.
3.6.5 KSD 100EXP Installation Considerations
The KSD 100EXP dimensions and installation template are provided in Appendix A Outline and
Installation Drawings.
CAUTION
IF THE ORIGINAL AIRSPEED INDICATOR IS PART OF THE AIRSPEED WARNING SYSTEM IT
MUST BE RETAINED IN THE INSTALLATION.
