KNI 582
SECTION 2
INSTALLATION
2.1 GENERAL
This section contains the suggestions and information to consider before installation of the KNI 582 Radio Magnetic Indicator into the aircraft. Close adherence to these suggestions will assure optimum performance from the equipment.
2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
Exercise extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Make a visual inspection of the unit for evidence of damage during shipment. If a claim for damage is to be made, save the shipping container to substantiate the claim. The claim should be promptly filed with the transportation company. It would be advisable to retain the container and packing material after all equipment has been removed, in the event that equipment storage or reshipment should become necessary. The KNI 582 RMI installation will conform to standards designated by the customer, installing agency and existing conditions as to unit location and type of installation.
2.3KNI 582 RMI INSTALLATION
A.Plan a location on the aircraft panel that is clearly visible to the pilot with the least practicable deviation from his normal position and from his line of vision when he is looking forward along the flight path.
B.Make certain that clearance is available for the installation of the cables and connectors, and also that normal vibration does not cause the unit to bump against other equipment cases.
C.If an instrument hole that meets the installation requirements is not available, cut a 3" ATI hole per Figure
D.The KNI 582 RMI may be secured in place from front or behind the panel.
2.4POST INSTALLATION CHECK
These are tests designed to show that the KNI 582 RMI is functioning accurately under broadly nominal conditions.
A.Compass Card Accuracy
1.With the aircraft on a known magnetic heading, this heading ±2° should be under the lubber line of KNI 582 RMI.
