453-6500

(18) Connect the P2 plug to the ELT/NAV Interface.

(19) Install the 150-6504 protective cap on the ELT/NAV Interface P1 plug, if the 24-bit address

reprogramming option is not used.

(20) Test the installation in accordance with the procedure outlined in SUBTASK 25-69-10-750-001,

on page 34.

C. 24-Bit Address Reprogramming – Hard Wire Method

(1)

The 24-bit address is composed of binary “1s” and “0s”, with a “1” electrically grounded to the

airframe and “0” electrically open.

(2)

Encoding is accomplished by either “hard wiring” the respective “1” pins to ground or by using

a 24-bit address switch block, which internally grounds selected addresses. Hard wiring is the

preferred method. See SUBTASK 25-69-10-450-003, on page 50, for 24-bit address switch

block instructions.

(3)

Determine the appropriate binary 24-bit address based on the octal or hexadecimal ID code

assigned to the aircraft. See "Figure 11. Octal/Hexadecimal to Binary Conversion".

Figure 11. Octal/Hexadecimal to Binary Conversion

(4)

Prepare the number of ground wires (binary “1”) necessary to encode the 24-bit address as

follows:

(a)

Strip approximately 0.19 in. (5 mm) of insulation from each end of each of the ground

wire.
