INSTALLATION...

The A600 Series must be properly mounted to comply with FAR
Part 91.205(c-2) & (c-3). The light assembly must be mounted so
that the light distribution pattern is not obstructed by any parts of
the aircraft. A limited amount of obstruction is permitted (Ref. FAR
Part 23.1401 for anti-collision lights, and FAR 23.1387 for position
lights).

The baseplate must be mounted parallel to the vertical and
horizontal centerlines of the aircraft to project the patterns
properly.

MOUNTING...

1.

If necessary, fabricate the mounting pattern using
dimensions found in fig. 1.

2.

Make the necessary wiring connections using 18 gage wire
for the position lights, and Whelen 16 gage 3/c cable for the
strobe lights. All connections must use FAA approved
techniques.

3.

Remove the two (6-32 x .312) retainer mounting screws,
retainer and lens.

4.

Attach the base assembly to the wingtip using (3) #6-32
countersunk screws (unit may be sealed around periphery
with RTV or equivalent).

5.

Re-attach the lens and retainer.

WIRING...

1.

The strobe connector should plug into the Whelen interconnecting
cable, or a Whelen strobe power supply.

Observe the following strobe color coding:
PIN 1 - RED
(Anode)
PIN 2 - BLACK (Cathode)
PIN 3 - WHITE (Trigger)

Caution:

When pins 1 & 2 or pins 2 & 3 are reversed, the system
will appear to operate normally, however this
condition will cause premature flash tube failure.

2.

Connect the forward position light wires as follows:

RED - +14 or +28 volts (depending on aircraft voltage)
BLACK - ( - ) Ground

3.

The tail position light has no polarity, as noted by both wires being
BLUE. Connect one BLUE wire to +14 or +28 volts (depending on
aircraft voltage). Connect the other BLUE wire to ground (see fig.
2)..
