GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 DESCRIPTION
The Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator (EHSI) is an electronic flight instrument containing all of the
hardware and software functions necessary to display information to the pilot concerning the functions of a
Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) or Navigation Map Display. When in Navigation Map Display Mode, the
Lightning Overlay may be activated. The EHSI uses a combination of menu selections stored in internal NVM
and/or optional external configuration module to determine the specific instrument functionality required by the
particular aircraft installation. Due to different aircraft system configurations, some features or capabilities of
the EHSI may not be available for a particular aircraft.
The EHSI accepts sensor inputs from several different systems. See Table below for information.
The EHSI can operate with a 28-Vdc or 14-Vdc power source. The EHSI also monitors the aircraft’s dimming
bus as a means of controlling the keyboard panel’s backlight. The brightness of the AMLCD is controlled by a
means of a front panel adjustment.
The KI 825 also interfaces to an optional Configuration Module (KCM 100) (See Figure 1-2). This
configuration module retains information concerning the number and types of systems connected to the
KI 825 in the event the KI 825 is replaced. Typically, this information is input by the installer. If the optional
Configuration Module is not interfaced to the KI 825, the configuration data will be stored only in the internal
non-volatile memory in the KI 825.
The EHSI displays navigational information in a multicolor graphic format presented in a 360-degree compass
format. The display will contain information such as compass card, navigation source indicator, selected
heading, bearing pointer, range indicator, course arrow with course deviation indicator, course readout,
TO/FROM indicator, time to station, glideslope indication, and error flags.
The EHSI provides a 360 map display about the aircraft. Information which may be displayed includes
waypoints, course line, and bearing line. The type and amount of data presented will depend on the
interfacing equipment. The selectable ranges are 2, 6, 10, 16, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 160, and 320 NM. The
Lightning overlay may or may not be displayed, depending on the availability of the sensors on the particular
aircraft.
The EHSI provides an Arc map display showing approximately ±45 degrees from aircraft heading. Information
which may be displayed includes waypoints, course line, and bearing line. The type and amount of data
presented will depend on the interfacing equipment. The selectable ranges are 2, 6, 10, 16, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80,
160, and 320 NM. The Lightning overlay may or may not be displayed, depending on the availability of the
sensors on the particular aircraft.
The EHSI displays weather-avoidance information in a multicolor graphic format. The EHSI will display
Lightning information obtained from Goodrich WX-500 Stormscope concerning electrical discharges in pilot-
selectable ranges. There are two modes of operation: Cell Mode and Strike Mode.
1.1.7 NVIS
The EHSI hardware, P/N 80-5205-4-( ) and 80-5205-5-( ) will be NVIS compatible with type 1, class B,

The EHSI interfaces to positive and ground apply input discrete signals as shown below. Ground applied input
states may be “GND” or “Open” where “GND” is less than 2.5 Vdc and where “Open” is a resistance greater
than 100 KΩ. Current flow through the input wire for ground apply aircraft inputs in the active state will be
nominally 5 ma. Positive Apply inputs require a voltage > 9 Vdc for the active state and ≤ +2.5 Vdc for the
inactive state. Input impedance for the positive apply inputs is approximately 5.6 KΩ.
NOTE 1:
The "NAV #1 selected" and "NAV #2 selected" inputs have the following functionality:
"NAV #1 selected" discrete in the “EXTERNAL SENSE” menu, "NAV1 - NAV2 W/ANNUN" configuration
mode, will cause the KI 825 to annunciate “VOR 1” when input is ground applied.
"NAV #2 selected" discrete in the “EXTERNAL SENSE” menu, "NAV1 - NAV2 W/ANNUN" configuration
mode, will cause the KI 825 to annunciate “VOR 2” when input is ground applied.
"NAV #1 selected" discrete in the “GPS 1(2) COURSE CTRL” menu, "SELECTABLE” or “SELECTABLE
CRS CTRL” configuration mode, will cause the KI 825 to switch between operating as a “CONTROLLER”
or “ LISTENER” with respect to the GPS course. This functionality is not available with -2 software.
"NAV #2 selected" discrete in the “GPS 1(2) COURSE CTRL” menu, has no function.
NOTE 2:
For software version -2; Active = NAV selected; Inactive = GPS selected
For software version -3; The “NAV-GPS TOGGLING” choice in the “Navigation Source Menu” in the
Configuration Menu will result in the “NAV/GPS sel” discrete performing as an interface to permit an
external momentary switch to change the Selected Navigation Source.

PRESENT" will be displayed. Any other error encountered when selecting LOAD FROM MODULE will result
in the display of the error message “GENERAL CONFIG MODULE FAULT.” Pressing the "Menu" pushbutton
will clear these error messages. In the event of an error where the configuration module cannot be accessed,
or the data obtained from the configuration module is erroneous, the EHSI will continue to use the current
configuration.
This page allows the heading data source to be specified. The current heading for the selected interface is
displayed.
The HEADING item allows the heading source to be specified. The supported options are "KG 102A” and
“FLUX VALVE”, or “XYZ SYNCHRO” based.
The HDG VALID allows the user to choose either a ground or positive apply signal for the heading valid
discrete.
* This option is not selectable if the analogs are already used for “NAV 1”
The “NAV 1” choice allows the installer to specify if the KI 825 uses the “NAV ANALOG” inputs, or the ARINC
429 data bus and its speed.
The “COURSE RETENTION” choice allows the installer to specify if a separate course will be retained for
GPS sources and NAV sources (“SEPARATE”). “Separate” is the default behavior of the -2 software. If the
installer specifies “SINGLE”, a single course will be maintained for all GPS and NAV sources.
The "NAV 2" choice allows the installer to specify if a second NAV source is installed and its characteristics.
The "NAV OBI" choice determines if the King Serial bearing data is available and whether the data is Type I
or Type II.
The "EXT SENSE" choice allows the installer to specify if the KI 825 is being used with an external relay for
selection of the navigation source.
"NONE" indicates no external relay. In this configuration, the KI 825 will internally select among the configured
NAV and GPS sources.
"NAV1 - NAV2 W/ANNUN" indicates the external relay will be used to switch two NAV/COMM
sources into the NAV analog inputs. The discrete inputs “NAV #1 selected” and “NAV # 2 selected”
will be used in this mode of operation as follows. The KI 825 will annunciate "VOR 1" when the "NAV
#1 selected" input is ground apply and will annunciate "VOR 2" when the "NAV #2 selected" discrete
input is ground apply. If both inputs are open or if both inputs are ground apply the NAV error flag will
be displayed and the annunciation will be set to "VOR X. In this configuration, the KI 825 can also
internally select configured GPSs.
"NAV1 - NAV2 NO ANNUN" indicates the relay will be used to externally switch two navigation
sources into the NAV analog inputs. "VOR" will be annunciated. In this configuration, the KI 825 can
also internally select configured GPSs.
"NAV-GPS W/ANNUN" indicates the relay will be used to externally switch a NAV/COMM system and
a GPS system into the NAV analog inputs. The “NAV/GPS Select” discrete input signal should be
connected to the relay panel such that it will be ground applied when the NAV/COMM has been
selected to provide navigational information to the KI 825 and open when a GPS system provides the
navigational information. The KI 825 will annunciate "VOR" when ground is applied and "GPS" when
the signal is left open. Note this input is only active when the "NAV-GPS W/ANNUN" choice is
selected. In this configuration, the KI 825 will not allow any internally switched navigation sources.
The “NAV-GPS TOGGLING” choice will result in the “NAV/GPS sel” discrete performing as an
interface to permit an external momentary switch to change the Selected Navigation source. The
selection will be within the selected NAV/GPS system. The order of selection will be either VOR 1 and
GPS 1 or VOR 2 and GPS 2. The order of selection always starts from the currently selected sensor.

The Resolver F value can be "NORMAL" or "INVERT". This value determines polarity of the Resolver F (Sine)
output.
The COURSE value can be from "000.1" to "360.0". The value is determined by highlighting the field with the
cursor, and adjusting the value using the other knob.
The COURSE OFFSET value can be from "-180.0" to "+180.0". The value is determined by highlighting the
field with the cursor and adjusting the value using the other knob.
The DEVIATION value can be from "-9.9" to "+9.9". This value is determined by the unit monitoring the NAV
DEV + RIGHT and the NAV DEV + LEFT analog input signals.
The TO/FROM value can be "TO", "OFF", or "FROM". This value is determined by the unit monitoring the
NAV COMM's TO/FROM signal.
The SAVE COURSE OFFSET task is performed when the item is highlighted by the cursor and the "MENU"
button is pressed. This task saves "COURSE OFFSET'’, which is used by the software to calculate the OBS
Course Output angle for the selected NAV COMM.
The "COURSE OFFSET" value will be stored in NVM and in the configuration module if present.
The NAV 1 Course OBS Calibration procedure only needs to be performed if NAV 1 has been configured for
Analog inputs from the NAV SOURCE menu.
1. If the NAV COMM is a KX 165 or KX 165A, set the "Resolver F" to INVERT.
2. Supply a standard VOR signal to the NAV antenna port of the NAV COMM. Set the bearing on the VOR
signal generator to 30 degrees and set the TO/FROM to "TO".
3. On the EHSI NAV 1 OBS Calibration page, set the "COURSE" to 30.0 degrees.
4. While monitoring the "DEVIATION" value, adjust the "COURSE OFFSET" until the "DEVIATION" value is
zero. Verify the "TO/FROM" value on the EHSI is "TO". If not, readjust the "COURSE OFFSET" until the
value is "TO" and the "DEVIATION" value is zero
5. Set the bearing on the VOR Generator to 120 degrees.
6. Adjust the "COURSE" value to 120 degrees.
7. Record the deviation value, including its sign. Note: If the deviation is greater than +9.9 or less than -9.9,
change the value for "Resolver F" and repeat calibration from step 2.
8. Set the bearing on the VOR Generator to 210 degrees.
9. Adjust the "COURSE" value to 210 degrees.
10. Record the deviation value, including its sign. Note: If the deviation is greater than +9.9 or less than -9.9,
change the value for "Resolver F" and repeat calibration from step 2.
11. Set the bearing on the VOR Generator to 300 degrees.
12. Adjust the "COURSE" value to 300 degrees.
13. Record the deviation value, including its sign. Note: If the deviation is greater than +9.9 or less than -9.9,
change the value for "Resolver F" and repeat calibration from step 2.
Set the VOR Generator to the bearing with the most positive deviation value.
Subtract the absolute value of the above number from the current DEVIATION value.
(_____) - (|___|) = ________ .
Adjust the course offset at _____ degrees to this deviation value.
Example 1:
Deviation value at 30 degrees = ___0.0
Deviation value at 120 degrees = __+1.2
Deviation value at 210 degrees = _+1.1
Deviation value at 300 degrees = _-1.4
Set the VOR Generator to the bearing with the most positive deviation value.
Subtract the absolute value of the above number from the current DEVIATION value (+1.2) - (|-0.1|) = (+1.1).
Adjust the course offset at 120 degrees to +1.1 deviation.
Example 2:
Deviation value at 30 degrees = ___0.0
Deviation value at 120 degrees = __+1.2
Deviation value at 210 degrees = _+1.1
Deviation value at 300 degrees = _+0.5
Set the VOR Generator to the bearing with the most positive deviation value.
Subtract the absolute value of the above number from the current DEVIATION value (+1.2) - (|+0.6|) = (+0.6).
Adjust the course offset at 120 degrees to +0.6.
After performing the above OBS calibration, before exiting the calibration menu, the "SAVE COURSE
OFFSET" must be selected. This will save the COURSE OFFSET value in non-volatile memory. Verify the
OBS at 30-degree increments. If the EHSI calibration is not within requirements, calibration of the NAV
COMM should be performed per its calibrations procedure. The EHSI will have to be re-calibrated after the
NAV COMM is calibrated.
The NAV 2 Course OBS Calibration procedure only needs to be performed if the NAV interface to the KI 825
is a relay configuration using the Analog inputs.
The NAV 2 Course OBS Calibration procedure is identical to the NAV 1 Course OBS Calibration procedure.
This procedure is independent from the NAV 1 Course OBS Calibration procedure.
This page will allow the characteristics of the connected GPS to be configured.
The “GPS 1” choice determines if a GPS system is connected and its characteristics. The options are
“NONE”; “RS-232 STANDARD” such as used in the KLN 89; “RS-232 ENHANCED” as can be used with the
KLN 94; “ARINC 429 LOW SPEED” as used in the KLN 900: “ARINC 429 HIGH SPEED”; “A429 LO
ENHANCED” for low speed ARNIC 429 data with course control data and “A429 HI ENHANCED” for high
speed ARINC 429 with course control data.
The “GPS 1 ANALOGS” choice determines if the analog inputs are connected and to which input bus. The
“GPS INPUTS” are for the internally switched configuration. For a “GPS 1” configured with an ARINC 429
interface, the ARINC 429 data will take precedence over the analog inputs. The analog inputs will be used if
they are connected and enabled if the ARINC 429 data fails.
The “GPS 1 OBI” choice determines if the King Serial bearing data is available and whether the data is Type I
or Type II.
The “GPS 1 VERTICAL DEVIATION” choice determines if the KI 825 will be receiving and displaying vertical
deviation data from the selected GPS sensor.
The “GPS 2” choice determines if a second GPS is connected and determines the interface characteristics.
The “GPS 2 VERTICAL DEVIATION” choice determines if the KI 825 will be receiving and displaying vertical
deviation data from the selected GPS sensor.
The “A 429 LO ENHANCED” selection will result in the KI 825 responding to source changes from the
NAV/GPS system and for the NAV/GPS system to respond to source changes from the KI 825 by means of
the low speed ARINC 429 interface.
The “A 429 HI ENHANCED” selection will result in the KI 825 responding to source changes from the
NAV/GPS system and for the NAV/GPS system to respond to source changes from the KI 825 by means of
the high speed ARINC 429 interface.
The “SDI ENABLE” choice of “YES” will result in the “Source/Destination Identifier” (SDI) being set to 1 for
GPS 1 when the KI 825 is addressing GPS 1 and the SDI being set to 2 for GPS 2 when the KI 825 is
addressing GPS 2. For this feature to operate, the GPS will have to be configured to support SDI.
The “GPS 1 COURSE CTRL” and “GPS 2 COURSE CTRL” menu permits the selection of the mode of
operation of the KI 825 with respect to the GPS system when connected with an ARINC 429 interface.
The four modes are “CONTROLLER”, “LISTENER”, “SELECTABLE”, and “SELECTABLE CRS CTRL”. For -2
version software the KI 825 only operated as a “CONTROLLER”.
• “CONTROLLER” – The KI 825 outputs selected course and allows pilot entry of course when
allowed by the KI 825 operating mode.
• “LISTENER” – The KI 825 can display all GPS data but cannot change the selected course. In
addition the KI 825 will not respond to changes in the mode of the NAV/GPS system. When the
KI 825 cannot adjust course, the “CRS” annunciation will be removed from next to the course set
knob.
• “SELECTABLE” – The KI 825 will function as defined for a CONTROLLER when discrete input
“NAV #1 Selected” is open and as a LISTENER when “NAV1 Selected” is applied.
• “SELECTABLE CRS CTRL” – The KI 825 will function as a CONTROLLER when discrete input
“NAV #1 Selected” is open and will not control the course when the discrete is ground applied
when the GPS is selected. When the KI 825 cannot adjust the course the “CRS” annunciation
will be removed from next to the course set knob. The navigation source selection will be fully
functional.
The TYPE field will enable a lightning display and specify the type. The type WX-500 is a Goodrich WX-500
Stormscope.
The COMM type indicates the EHSI is wired to both transmit and receive RX/TX or only receive RX.
The following commands are only available if the transmitter is connected from the EHSI to the Stormscope:
The NOISE CHECK will command the WX-500 to perform a noise check operation and display the
results.
The STRIKE TEST will command the WX-500 to perform a strike test and display the results.
The SYSTEM DATA will command the WX-500 to perform a system data dump and display the results.
The SELF TEST will command the WX-500 to perform a self test and display the results.
The page will allow the dimming bus to be specified and selection of the aircraft symbol type.
NOTE 1: A ground apply on Day/Night Mode discrete input pin P3-25 would result in the unit operating in
Night mode. An Open on P3-25 would result in the unit operating in day mode.
NOTE 2: If set to DISABLE, the Day/Night Mode discrete will be disabled and the unit will only operate with
the Day Dimming levels.
The “DAY DIMMING” option “FULL” will select a brightness range from approximately 0.15fL to the maximum
display brightness (approximately 170fL) when operating in day mode. The “DAY DIMMING” option “DAY”
will select a brightness range which operates from the maximum night mode value (50fL for “NIGHT” mode
and 20fL for “NVIS” mode; see “NIGHT DIMMING” below) to the maximum display brightness (approximately
170fL) when operating in day mode.
The “NIGHT DIMMING” option “DISABLE” will disable the night brightness range and ignore the discrete
Day/Night Mode input resulting in day mode operation only. The “NIGHT DIMMING” option “NIGHT” will
select a brightness range from approximately 0.15fL to approximately 50fL when operating in night mode.
The “NIGHT DIMMING” option “NVIS” will select a brightness range from approximately 0.05fL to 20fL.
Noise Check mode is used during installation to help determine the source of aircraft based noise that could
interfere with lightning detection. When Noise Check mode is selected, the EHSI will send a Noise Check
Request message to the lightning sensor. During Noise Check mode, the EHSI will display strike data
received from the lightning sensor on a screen containing the elements shown in the following figure. Strikes
are maintained on the display for a period of up to 3 minutes. The screen shall consist of range rings at 400
NM and 200 NM. The trigger count (00000-99999) received from the lightning sensor will be displayed at the
bottom center of the screen. If any errors are received from the lightning sensor, they will be shown at the top
center of the screen. Turning the right knob will send a clear command to the lightning sensor and remove all
currently displayed strikes from the screen. Strike data may also be cleared externally by the lightning sensor.
Pressing the “Menu” button will terminate Noise Check mode and return to the configuration menu.

Description
Menu Dynamics
Depending on the current instrument configuration, some of the Menu Items or Options may not be displayed.
For example, if the instrument is not configured to interface with a lightning instrument, then the Lightning
Mode and Clear Lightning Strikes Menu Items will not be shown. Likewise, if the instrument is configured with
only one GPS source, then GPS 2 will not show as an Option for the Navigation or BRG Source Menu Items.
Depending on the currently selected options, some Menu Items may be unavailable. Those Menu Items will
be disabled and not available for selection. For example, if the currently selected Display Mode is Standard
HSI Mode, the range has no affect and will consequently be disabled. Once a change has been made which
allows a function to be available for the new setup, the Menu Items will be enabled. Even though traffic and
lightning overlays are only allowed during one of the map modes, the Traffic and Lightning Modes Menu Items
will always be available. If a traffic or lightning display is enabled while the current mode is set to HSI, the unit
will automatically switch the mode to 360 Map.
If a menu selection is not available due to the configuration of the aircraft, it will not be displayed. If a menu
selection is not available due to current menu choices, it will be displayed but it will be in cyan lettering with a
blue background. Menu choices that are available will be displayed in white lettering with a blue background.
The Menu Button Description will be “MENU OFF” for all Menu Items, with four following exceptions.
1. Memory Menu Item when a SAVE Menu Option is currently selected, in which case it will be “HOLD FOR
SAVE”.
2. Memory Menu Item when the LOAD Menu Option is currently selected, in which case it will be “PRESS
TO SELECT”.
3. The "Clear Lightning Strikes" Item, in which case it will be "PRESS TO CLEAR".
4. Navigation Source Menu, which will be “PRESS TO SELECT”.
1. If the EHSI is configured for only one GPS system, GPS annotation will be used in place of GPS1 and
GPS2.
2. If the EHSI is configured for only one VOR system, VOR annotation will be used in place of VOR1 and
VOR2.
1.4.1 Bright
When Bright Menu Item (BRITE) is the currently selected Menu Item, the brightness of the display may be
adjusted to the pilot’s preference by rotating the right knob clockwise to increase brightness or counter-
clockwise to decrease brightness.
1.4.2 Range
The Range Menu Item (RNG) allows the pilot to select the display range. Selectable ranges are 2, 6, 10, 16,
20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 160, and 320 NM. The Range Menu Item will be disabled when the current Display Mode is
Standard HSI. If the range is less than 10, and a lightning overlay is being shown, the unit will display “NO
LIGHTNING”.
-2 Software Operation
The Navigation Source Menu Item (NAV) allows the pilot to choose the primary navigation source. Depending
on the current installation configuration, the selectable navigation sources are GPS 1, GPS 2, VOR 1, and
VOR 2. If the current configuration has only one GPS and/or VOR source, the annotation will not have a
number following the type.
-3 Software Operation
The Navigation Source Menu is the Pilot Menu’s method to choose the Primary Navigation Source.
Depending on the current installation configuration, the selectable navigation sources are GPS 1, VOR 1,
GPS 2, and VOR 2. If the current configuration has only one GPS and/or VOR source the annotation will not
have a number following the type.
In addition to the Pilot Menu, the Primary Navigation source can be selected by either the CDI switch on the
Garmin 530/430 (if enabled by the configuration menu) or by means of an optional remote switch connected
to the “NAV/GPS Select” discrete input (if enabled by the configuration menu). If aircraft is configured with two
Garmin 530/430 systems connected to a single KI 825, the CDI switch on the Garmin 530/430 system
currently selected on the KI 825 will allow switching of the selected navigation source between its NAV and
GPS subsystems only. The CDI switch on the non-selected Garmin 530/430 will not affect the navigation
source selection on the KI 825.
The CDI switch will permit changing of the selected Navigation source on both the Garmin 530/430 and KI
825 with a single selection.
Using the KI 825 Pilot Menu, the selected Navigation source will be sent to the GPS system immediately upon
exiting the Navigation source Menu either by selecting another “MENU ITEM” or by pressing the “MENU”
button. If, while in the Pilot Menu for Navigation source, the menu times out due to 20 seconds of no control
adjustments, the Navigation source will revert back to the Selected Source prior to entering the Navigation
source Menu. While the Navigation Source Menu is active and for 2 seconds after exiting the Navigation
source Menu, the external source selection setting will be ignored.
An optional momentary switch can be added to the KI 825, and can be used to switch the selected Navigation
source on the KI 825 within the selected NAV/GPS system. The order of selection will be either VOR 1 and
GPS 1 or VOR 2 and GPS 2.
The Autopilot outputs will switch to represent the data from the selected navigation source with the selection
of the new navigation source. This is done with the pressing of the CDI switch, exiting of the Navigation
source Menu or by pressing of the optional Navigation source Selection switch.
The Display Menu Item (MODE) allows the pilot to select the current display mode. Available modes are
Standard HSI, 360 Map, and Arc Map. In Standard HSI and 360 Map modes, the EHSI displays information in
360-degree view about the aircraft. In Arc Map mode, the EHSI displays a forward arc view from the aircraft
heading. In Standard HSI mode, the instrument acts as a standard HSI display. In 360 Map and Arc Map
modes, the instrument displays map information as well as allowing lightning overlay. If the Display Mode is
changed to HSI Mode when a lightning overlay is shown, the unit will announce “NO LGHTN”.
The Bearing Pointer Source Menu Item (BRG) allows the pilot to choose the Bearing Pointer source.
Depending on the current installation configuration, the selectable navigation sources are VOR 1, VOR 2,
GPS 1, GPS 2, or NONE. If the current configuration has only one GPS and/or VOR source, the annotation
will not have a number following the type.
Lightning Mode (LGHTN) is available only if the EHSI has been configured with a Lightning sensor. The
Lightning Mode Menu Item allows the pilot to select from the available lightning modes. Available modes
include Cell, Strike, and Off Modes. In Cell Mode, the EHSI will display clusters of electrical activity that
indicate storm cell areas. In Strike Mode, the EHSI will display individual electrical discharges. If the current
Display Mode is HSI, then the current option on the right will initially be blank because the lightning overlay
cannot be shown in HSI mode. If the lightning mode is changed to Cell or Strike Mode, the unit will
automatically change the Display Mode to 360 Map, the OFF Menu Option will become visible, and the unit
will announce “MODE CHANGED”. If the range is less then 10 nm and lightning mode is in cell or strike, the
EHSI will announce "NO LIGHTNING". This annunciation takes precedence over the "MODE CHANGED"
annunciation.
Pressing the “Menu” button when the Clear Lightning Strikes Menu Item (CLR) is currently selected clears all
existing discharge points being displayed and transmits the Clear command to the Lightning system on the
RS-232 bus. The Clear Lightning Strikes Menu Item will be disabled, if the current Lightning Mode is OFF or
the current Display Mode is HSI.
The Memory Functions Menu Item allows the pilot to load or save up to four different display setups. The
Save Setup Menu Item allows the pilot to save the current range, navigation source, display mode, Bearing
indicator source, traffic control, traffic mode, traffic view, traffic flight level, and lightning mode. The setups are
saved with a checksum. If the checksum is not correct for a particular setup, the corresponding Load Setup
Menu Item will not be shown. The LOAD options allow the pilot to load the current display setup with one of
the four saved displayed setups. The ACTV option returns the display setup to the state it was in before
entering the Memory Functions menu.
In the Memory Functions Menu, to "Save" the current configuration to a memory location, the pilot must first
highlight the desired "Save" location and then press and hold the “Menu” button for 2 seconds. These display
setups will be stored in non-volatile memory to maintain the setups even if the KI 825 is powered off.
In the Memory Functions Menu, to “Load” a stored configuration from a memory location the pilot must first
highlight the desired “Load” location and then press and release the “Menu” button. When the a “Load”
selection is highlighted and before the “Menu” button is pressed, the unit will automatically change to the
stored configuration but will not change any of the functionality of it’s outputs until the pilot presses and
releases the “Menu” button (-3 Software Only). For -2 software operation the functionality of its outputs
change immediately.
If while in the Memory Functions Menu, and if the menu times out due to 20 seconds of no activity by the pilot,
the KI 825 will revert back to the configuration it had prior to entering the Memory Menu.
If the EHSI has the optional Configuration Module, the four display setups will also be stored in its memory.
The Ground Speed vs. Time-To-Station Menu Item allows the pilot to choose whether to display the ground
speed or the time-to-station, if available. The Ground Speed vs. Time-To-Station Menu Item will be disabled if
the current Navigation Source is not a GPS source.
In order to rapidly set the heading bug to the aircraft's current heading, press and hold the "Menu" button for 1
second when exiting menu mode. The heading bug will position itself to the current heading. When the button
is released, for 5 seconds after heading bug repositioned itself, the heading bug will operate normally.

APPENDIX E
KI 525A - KI 825 REPLACEMENT WIRING
This is a list of pins that differ between the KI 525A installation and the KI 825 replacement.
The following wires need to be added or changed:
KI 825
P1-J INPUT POWER +28VDC
P1-M POWER RETURN Aircraft Ground
P1-L SIGNAL GROUND Aircraft Ground (see NOTE 1)
P1-c SIGNAL GROUND Aircraft Ground (see NOTE 1)
P1-R ILS ENERGIZE Connect to NAV radio (see NOTE 8)
P2-P HEADING VALID (see NOTES 5 and 6)
P1-w FLUX VALVE EXCITATION (H) connect to KA 51B P1-E
P1-x FLUX VALVE EXCITATION (L) connect to KA 51B P1-B
P2-x CHASSIS GROUND Aircraft Ground
P1-t LIGHTING LOW Aircraft Ground (see NOTE 2)
Depending on the installation, several load resistors may need to be added. (See applicable figures)
NOTE 1: This pin may already be grounded. Check connection to local aircraft ground.
NOTE 2: Backlighting wiring may also be different depending on what the voltage is used for the
backlighting.
If the KI 525A had +14VDC or +5VDC lighting, P1-t will be connected to the dimmer bus. This must be
disconnected and P1-t connected to aircraft ground.
NOTE 3: If the KCM 100 is installed, six additional wires must be added. Refer to figure 4-12 in the
installation manual for the wiring.
NOTE 4: If the installation is utilizing an external NAV/GPS relay and a KLN series GPS is being
interfaced, then the following change must be made:
On the GPS throw side of the relay, OBS resolver F and G must be reversed. These are referred to as
OBS SINE and OBS RETURN on the KLN series GPS. The NAV throw side of the relay connections
remain unchanged. Refer to figure 4-15 in the installation manual for the wiring.
NOTE 5: P2-P can be left in the installation for heading valid. Figure 4-7 in the installation manual
shows P2-c for heading valid. Either pin will work.
NOTE 6: If there are systems in the installation using the heading (bootstrap) syncro output from the KI
825 as shown in figure 4-5, then the following applies:
Be sure to use the EHSI READY output pin P2-w for the compass valid all peripheral devises. Do not
use P2-P, P2-c, or KG 102A P1-a, as these pins do not sum in the EHSI valid.
NOTE 7: Many of the older KI 525A installations used solder cup type connectors. In these installations,
P1, 030-02153-0000 does not have pins in some of the sockets that are needed for the KI 825
installation connections. The P1 connector will need to be changed to the crimp type that
comes in the KI 825 installation kits.
NOTE 8: If the installation utilizes an external NAV/GPS relay, KI 825 P3 pin 31 must be connected to
the relay. Refer to figure 4-15 in the installation manual for the wiring.
NOTE 9: Any wiring from other systems to the KI 825 that is not needed for the intended configuration
should be removed. For example, if the analog interfaces from the GPS receiver are not
intended to be used because the KI 825 has been configured for the ARINC 429 interface,
those connections to the KI 825 should be removed.
NOTE 10: This appendix is intended to aid in the replacement of the KI 525A with the KI 825. Due to the
many different installation options, it does not include all of the wiring for the complete KI 825
installation.
