Connection to the pitot-static system

In order to display accurate speed and altitude data the A2 needs to be connected to the aircraft

pitot-static system. First of all remove the two caps protecting the STATIC and PITOT ports.

Installation along with other mechanical or digital altimeters and airspeed indicators is supported

by mean of a T coupler (not included in the A2 box).

Connect the pitot line to the port labeled PITOT and the static line to the port labeled STATIC.

Make sure the tubes fit tightly into the A2.

Note: Use flexible plastic tubes with an inside diameter of 5 mm (0,2 inches).

IMPORTANT

: We recommend to test the pitot-static system for leakage after any alteration.

Connection to the Docking Station

The A2 includes a 1.5 m cable with a standard USB connector. Connect the USB cable to one

of the USB ports of the EKP V Cockpit Docking Station.

One of the USB ports is powered by the EKP V internal battery (see Figure 6). If AvMap EFIS is

the main source of primary flight information it is recommended to connect the A2 to this port, in

order to maintain PFD indications in case of electrical power loss.
