1.4.3 CERTIFICATION DISKETTES

Installation of the KFC 225 Automatic Flight Control System requires the use of a certification
diskette. This certification diskette contains files that define certain parameters that are uploaded
to the KCM 100 configuration module and then used by the KC 225. These files are aircraft specific
and each aircraft certification will have three separate files. The first eight characters of the filename
for each of these files corresponds to the last eight digits of the 722--0XXXX--XXXX software archive
number for that certification. The three digit extension will be one of the following: .CER, .DAT and
.TXT. The .CER file is the certification file that contains the data that is uploaded to the KCM 100.
The .DAT file lists the data that is uploaded to the KCM 100 in a decoded (”human readable”) form.
The .TXT file describes which aircraft the data pertains to and the expected aircraft harness strap
code.
The following diskettes have been approved for use with the KFC 225 system:

225--00044--XXXX KFC 225 AFCS Certification Data
225--00075--XXXX KFC 225 AFCS Certification Data for Cessna

SECTION II
INSTALLATION
2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

This section contains general suggestions and information to consider before installation of the
KFC 225 Flight Control System. Close adherence to these suggestions will assure optimum
performance from the equipment. Specific installation requirements are contained in the STC
Installation Manual that pertains to the particular type of aircraft which the equipment is to be
installed.
NOTE
“The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are
minimum performance standards. It is the responsibility of those
desiring to install the article either on or within a specific type or class
of aircraft to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are
within the TSO standards. If not within the TSO standards, the article
may be installed only if further evaluation by the applicant documents
an acceptable installation and is approved by the Administrator.”
2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT

Exercise extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Make a visual inspection of the unit for
evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If a claim for damage is to be made, save the

2.3 EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION

The equipment should be installed in the aircraft in a manner consistent with acceptable
workmanship and engineering practices and in accordance with the instructions set forth in this
publication and in the appropriate STC installation manual.
2.3.1 Avionics Cooling requirements for Panel Mounted Equipment
The greatest single contributor to increased reliability of all modern day avionics is to limit the
maximum operating temperature of the individual units whether panel mounted or remote mounted.
While modern day individual circuit designs consume much less electrical energy, watts per cubic
inch dissipated within the avionics unit remains much the same due to high density packaging
techniques utilized. Consequently, the importance of providing cooling to the avionics stack is still
with us today.
While the KC 225 does not require forced air cooling, the combined heat load of several units
operating in a typical avionics location will significantly degrade the reliability of the avionics if
provisions for cooling are not incorporated in the initial installation.
Recommendations on stack cooling are contained in Honeywell Installation Bulletin #55. Failure
to provide cooling to the equipment will lead to increased avionics maintenance costs and may also
void the Honeywell Inc warranty.
2.3.2 EQUIPMENT LOCATION

The equipment should be installed in a location convenient for operation, inspection, and
maintenance, and in an area free from excessive vibration, heat, and noise generating sources.

2.3.3 KC 225 INSTALLATION

The KC 225 installation will conform to standards designated by the customer, installing agency,
and existing conditions as to the unit location and type of installation. However, the following
instructions will assure a more satisfactory performance from the equipment.
The KC 225 mounting rack is mounted rigidly in the aircraft panel. Mounting holes are provided near
the front and rear of the mounting rack. It is necessary to secure the rack utilizing both the front
and rear mounting holes, attaching them rigidly to the airframe by means of support brackets.
Forced air cooling for the KC 225 is strongly recommended. A cooling air port is provided in the
KC 225 installation kit which is designed to be mounted on either side of the mounting rack. Cooling
air should be supplied to the KC 225 through this port at a minimum rate of 3.0 cubic feet per minute
(cfm). The KA 33 fan is capable of supplying this rate of forced air to the KC 225.
CAUTION
The static port on the rear of the KC 225 is designed to float to
ensure alignment with the static port on the mounting rack. Do
not attempt to tighten the mounting screws for the KC 225 static
port.
WARNING
REMOVAL OF THE KC 225 FROM ITS MOUNTING RACK IN THE
AIRCRAFT PANEL OPENS THE STATIC AIR SYSTEM TO THE
AIRCRAFT CABIN. AFTER REINSTALLATION OF THE KC 225,
VERIFY THAT THE STATIC AIR SYSTEM COMPLIES WITH F.A.R.
91.411.
NOTE
The following information is provided in the event that the o--ring on
the KC 225 static port requires replacement. The o--ring is 70
durometer EPDM material, AS568A--006 size. The Honeywell part
number is 187--01004--0013. The o--ring should be greased with
Honeywell part number 016--01210--0000, Dow Corning 55 o--ring
Lubricant (Mil--G--4343) or equivalent grease.

10557I06.CKS
BENDIX/KING
KFC 225
Following are some general requirements for the KFC 225 system wiring harness:
A. Stranded wire used shall meet or exceed MIL--W--22759/16 specification. Shielded wire shall
meet or exceed MIL--C--27500 specification.
B. All grounds are to be tied to aircraft ground as close to each unit as possible. All shield
grounds must be local with a maximum length of 6 inches.
C. Power and chassis grounds of the KC 225 shall be tied to the KC 225 mounting rack with a
maximum length of 6 inches. Other units power and chassis ground maximum length is 18
inches.
D. The maximum length for the KCM 100 Configuration module harness measured from the KC
225 connectors to the KCM 100 connector is 4 feet.
E. KC 225 shielded wire shall have the shields terminated to the studs on the rear of the

NOTE
A properly regulated and filtered air source is essential for correct
gyro operation. When making gyro alignment adjustments, always
have the gyro tilt set to zero degrees in the axis not under test.
For all the Attitude Gyro Calibration, set up the KI 256 attitude gyro (or KVG 350 vertical gyro for
EFIS installations) on a tilt stand that can be adjusted in both pitch and roll axes. Connect the gyro
to the airplane harness using the appropriate extender cable. For the KI 256 air driven gyro, connect
the gyro air input to a regulated 4.5 to 5 in. Hg source. Allow at least 5 minutes for the attitude gyro
to stabilize.
NOTE
When aligning a KI 256 panel mounted attitude gyro, a properly

B. HSI Heading and Course Pointer Calibration
NOTE
The following procedures should be completed with the KC 225
installed in its rack without the extender. Ensure all electrical power
to the KC 225 is off and remove the KC 225 and extender from the
rack. Reinstall the KC 225 securely without the extender and apply
electrical power and return to the ”SET INSTALLATION OFFSETS”
page of the Remote Terminal Interface (RTI).
NOTE
Since selected Heading and course are supplied to the KC 225 via
digital interface for EFIS/EHSI installations, the HSI Heading and
Course Pointer Calibration procedure does not apply for EFIS/EHSI
installations.
1. Slew the magnetic heading display (compass card) to 0 degrees (North).

2. Align the heading bug and course pointer to the lubber line on the (E)HSI.
3. Select ”1. Heading” on the ”SET INSTALLATION OFFSETS” page and press
<ENTER>.
4. Select ”2. Course” on the ”SET INSTALLATION OFFSETS” page and press
<ENTER>.
5. Press <ENTER> to exit the ”SET INSTALLATION OFFSETS” page.
NOTE
Since the KC225 supplies the Flight Director cues via digital interface
for EFIS/EADI installations, the Flight Director Alignment /
Calibration and Flight Director Gain Adjustment procedures do not
apply for EFIS/EADI installations.

C. Flight Director Alignment / Calibration

1. Similar to the gyro offset alignment procedure, the alignment of the Flight
Director command bar is done one axis at a time. Ensure that the attitude gyro
is level in PITCH and ROLL.
2. Adjust the symbolic aircraft in the attitude indicator by turning the small screw
located on the face of the unit. Choose a pilot viewing angle and align the
symbolic aircraft with the zero pitch attitude line on the gyro face.
3. To align the command bars in PITCH, ensure FD is engaged (but not the
autopilot).
4. Press and hold the CWS button located on the pilot control wheel.
5. Adjust ”The Pot” using a screwdriver to align the command bars in PITCH to the
”symbolic aircraft” on the Flight Director. Release the CWS button.
6. To align the command bars in ROLL, ensure the AP and FD are disengaged.
7. Press and hold the FD button.
8. Adjust ”The Pot” until the command bars in ROLL to align to ”wings level.”
Release the FD button.
D. Flight Director Gain Adjustment
NOTE
For KI 256 installations, the Flight Director alignment with the
symbolic aircraft may need to be readjusted during flight to
accommodate differences in instrument panel alignment as well as
pilot viewing angle preference. Any FCC adjustments undertaken in
flight should be performed in smooth air. The laptop PC is not
necessary for these in--flight adjustments.
1. Ensure that the attitude gyro is level in PITCH and ROLL.

2. Press the FD button on the front panel to bring the flight director command bars into
view.
3. Perform the following steps to verify the flight director gain is correct:
a) With the gyro still level in pitch attitude, press CWS and verify the command
bars sync to the current reference (level pitch.)
b) Make 5 discrete clicks using the UP button on the KC 225. This should cause
the flight director command bars to indicate a 2.5 degree pitch up command (0.5
degree/click.) If the flight director now indicates 2.5 degree pitch up, the
calibration is complete.
c) If the flight director indicates less than 2.5 degrees pitch up, press and hold the
go--around switch and turn ”The Pot” slightly clockwise. Release the go--around
switch and return to step (a).
d) If the flight director indicates more than 2.5 degrees pitch up, press and hold the
go--around switch and turn ”The Pot” slightly counter--clockwise. Release the
go--around switch and return to step (a).

E. Altimeter Calibration
NOTE
Care must be taken not to exceed the limits of the aircraft pneumatic
instruments while performing the Altimeter Calibration. Special care
must be taken if pressure is applied to the static system. Refer to the
pitot/static ramp tester instruction manual.
1. Return to the ”SET INSTALL OPTIONS” menu.

2. Enter ”4” to select Altimeter Alignment.
3. Connect a pitot/static ramp tester to the aircraft static ports.
4. Adjust the baro set on the altimeter to 29.92 inches. Press <ENTER>.
5. At the prompt, enter the aircraft’s max altitude in the configuration program. Press
<ENTER>.
6. Using the pitot/static ramp tester, increase pressure to achieve --200 ft on the
altimeter. Press <ENTER> when this altitude is reached.
7. Decrease pressure to achieve 0 ft on the altimeter. Press <ENTER> when this
altitude is reached.
8. Increase the altitude by 5000 ft and then press <ENTER>. Repeat this step until max
altitude is reached. Each 5000 ft increase should be at no greater than 2500 fpm.
9. Allow the pitot/static system pressure to equalize to ambient pressure and disconnect
from the aircraft.
F. This completes the KC 225 configuration. Return to the top--level Remote Terminal Interface
(RTI) menu by pressing <ENTER> twice to prevent further changes in the offset parameters.
