Depending on system configuration, all six receivers can be simultaneously active. The KTR 2280A will operate from a normal voltaqe of 27.5 VDC. The KTR 2280A is designed with ARINC 429 interfaces which is intended for use in the aircraft. It is also designed with RS-422 capabilities that will be used primarily for development and testing in the engineering lab.
The following installation kit information is presented at the revision existing at the time of this publication. Future revisions to these kits can occur. Use the latest revision of the kit as provided by Honeywell. The KTR 2280A installation kit, PN 050-03721-0010, contains the following parts: DESCRIPTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Dow Corning DC-4 or equivalent. LICENSING REQUIREMENTS The KTR 2280A meets CFR Title 47, Part 2, 15 and 87 (FCC Approvals) for all radio equipment. For non-US registered aircraft, follow applicable licensing requirements as required. This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: •...
The instructions for continued airworthiness given in the TC or STC approvals for this product supplements or supersedes the instructions for continued airworthiness in this manual. The KTR 2280A is designed and manufactured to allow "on-condition maintenance". On condition maintenance is described as follows; There are no periodic service requirements necessary to maintain continued airworthiness.
The unit is cooled by a fan internal to the unit and an external fan attached to the rear rack assembly plate, the latter being a part of the installation (Refer to Figure 2-21 KTR 2280A Installation Drawing). During installation, do not block any holes in the unit cover(s) which would restrict air flow.
TSO environmental limits. Determine the mounting location for system components following the guidelines below 2.3.2.1 Mounting Tray Location(s) The KTR 2280A MMDR mounting tray can be installed in any convenient location. 2.3.2.2 Antenna(s) The antenna(s) must be well removed from other antenna projections, the engine(s), and propeller(s). It must also be well removed from landing gear doors, access doors, or other openings which will break the ground plane for the antenna(s).
The KTR 2280A must use the internal fans or a part of the mounting rack for air cooling. The mounting racks and other objects will be installed as per the instructions in the in- stallations in the installation drawing to allow air flow through the chassis.
KTR 2280A Interconnection and Cable Harness Fabrication The KTR 2280A MMDR receives primary power from the aircraft power source. A typical interface is shown in Figure 2-24 KTR 2280A Interconnect Diagram. Aircraft specific interfaces with more details are provided in separate EB or Installation Drawings.
A typical backshell is shown in Figure 2-12 Typical Taylor Backshell. Figure 2-13 Backshell Assembly Exploded View provides an exploded view of the backshell. Table 2-1 KTR 2280A Backshell Hardware describes the connector type used for the KTR 2280A.
2.3.5.3 Primary Power and Circuit Breaker Requirements The KTR 2280A MMDR receives primary power from the aircraft power circuit breakers. Power connections, wire sizes, and circuit breaker requirements can be found in the system installation manual and/or EB for a specific installation.
To check the aircraft and MMDR system interconnections proceed as follows: Check that all cables and interwiring are installed in accordance with the interwiring and cable harness fabrication instructions (refer to paragraph 2.3.5.1 KTR 2280A Interconnection and Ca- ble Harness Fabrication).
The values for these alignments are stored within the aircraft system maintenance computer and downloaded to the KTR 2280A on power up. If this download does not occur the KTR 2280A uses the last values that were loaded.
The following operational checks are to verify proper operation of the ADF function of the KTR 2280A and can be made with the aircraft in the parking area. Place the ADF in the ANT mode and tune in several known stations. Verify that audio reception is satisfactory and that volume control operation is normal.
KTR 2280A INSTALLATION PARAMETER MODIFICATIONS The KTR 2280A has several parameters that can be adjusted during installation in order to conform the unit to a given installation. Parameter modifications must only be performed by a qualified avionics technician.
0) relative to the default. ARINC 429 INTERFACE The KTR 2280A has three high speed ARINC 429 transmitters and three high speed ARINC 429 receivers. All labels are transmitted on both transmit channels. The same data is transmitted over both channels...
OPERATION GENERAL The KTR 2280A is a remote mounted radio. As such, the user interface is defined by controllers and displays unique to the particular system configuration. Refer to the appropriate pilot’s guide or flight manual supplement for complete operating instructions.
Ident Tone Control: A means to defeat the Ident Tone notch filter in the NAV audio so the 1020 Hz Ident Tone can be heard. The KTR 2280A responds to high speed ARINC 429 label 265 for ident filter control. This label only occurs when a status change is made.

SYSTEM INSTALLATION MANUAL KTR 2280A KA 44B ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE The KA 44B ADF Antenna (Honeywell PN 071-1234-00) is certified to TSO C41c with RTCA DO-160A environmentals per B2D2/A/LJY/XXXXXX/ABABA. Recent "not-for-certification-credit" testing has been performed on this antenna to determine expected performance in selected DO-160D environmental conditions.
