4 XVUE TOUCH SYSTEM INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Prior to installation of any xVue Touch System components, complete all power, ground, and continuity
checks. Any faults or discrepancies must be corrected before proceeding to component installations.
4.1 Introduction
The xVue Touch System installation encompasses the following major activities:
(1) Physical installation of system components into an airplane (including wiring). This step will
require a portion of the existing instrumentation be removed and/or relocated.
(2) Update of software for system components (if needed)
(3) Configuration of the KSD 100EXP (including configuration of interfaces)
(4) Configuration of the KCP 100EXP (Control Panel Lighting)
(5) Configuration of the KG 71EXP (including configuration of interfaces)
(6) Reconfiguration of already installed systems which are newly connected with the xVue Touch
System (if needed)
(7) On ground checks
(8) In Air checks
(9) Troubleshooting of installation problems (if any are found)
4.2 Instrument Panel Preparation Procedure
(1) Ensure the instrument panel is prepared per Section 3.6.2 and the locations for the KSD 100EXP
PFD and KCP 100EXP Control Panel are determined based on considerations in Section 3.6.5 and
Section 3.6.6, respectively.
(2) Cut the panel for the KSD 100EXP using the template provided in Figure A-2 KSD 100EXP Panel
Cutout Dimensions (also refer to the 1:1 scale drawing and associated electronic format .dxf
template - available for download on the BendixKing Website - Dealer Portal).
(3) Cut the panel for the KCP 100EXP using the template provided in Figure A-5 KCP 100EXP Panel
Cutout Dimensions (also refer to the 1:1 scale drawing and associated electronic format .dxf
template - available for download on the BendixKing Website - Dealer Portal).
(4) Prepare nutplate locations (on the back of the instrument panel at each of the mounting holes) as
bonding points such that the bonding resistance conforms to the guidelines listed in Section 3.10
Electrical Bonding Considerations.
(5) Apply conversion coating material conforming to MIL-C-81706 per AC 43.13-1B, to exposed metal
surfaces.
(6) Install four #8-32 nutplates on the back side of the instrument panel at the KSD 100EXP mounting
hole locations provisioned in steps (4) and (5).
