SEE NON-DISCLOSURE NOTICE ON THE COVER PAGE 33 of 70 All Rights Reserved 5.1 G13120 Audio Mixer Removal a. Disconnect cable connector from the Audio Mixer. b. Disconnect (4) #8-32 screws securing the Audio Mixer to the mounting structure. 5.2 G13120 Audio Mixer Inspection a. The Audio Mixer contains no user serviceable internal components. Do not disassemble router or the factory warranty will be voided. Return the unit to Eagle Copters for service. b. Inspect all sheet metal for cracks or excessive corrosion. If any of the parts are cracked or excessively corroded (refer to Section 3.1.1 for corrosion limits) they must be removed from the aircraft and replaced. 5.3 G13120 Audio Mixer Installation a. The Audio Mixer is designed to be mounted in a variety of locations within the airframe, provided it is protected from the environment. It may be mounted to a deck, bulkhead, tray, avionics shelf or other structure rated to carry a 8 oz. load. b. The exact mounting location is left to the installer’s discretion provided that the installation of the Audio Mixer does not interfere with other equipment installed. Refer to Figure 18 for laying out mounting holes. c. Mount the Audio Mixer using (4) #8-32 screws, washers and locknuts or nutplates. When mounting into composite structure, #8-32 potted inserts should be used. d. Unless otherwise specified, follow aircraft manufacturer’s standard practices and maintenance manuals for installation of all hardware. e. Maintain a minimum 2 e/d edge margin for all installed fasteners. SUBJECT REF. MDL. REPORT NO. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS GA182 ICA182-5 Rev.

Refer to Figure 19 and Figure 20 for cable harness fabrication instructions. b. Unless otherwise specified, follow the aircraft manufacturer’s electrical wiring practices and maintenance manuals for installation of all system wiring. c. Unless otherwise noted, all shielded wire is M27500-(ga)TG(n)T14 and all unshielded wire is M22759/16-(ga)-9, where (ga) is the wire gauge and (n) is the number of wires inside the shield. d. Unless otherwise noted, all wire is 22 GA. e. All Bonding and Grounding will be In Accordance With AC 43.13-1B, Chapter 11, Section 15. f. Route all system cabling through existing cable runs. g. Secure all cabling using nylon cable ties and/or cable clamps using standard practices. 5.5 G13120 Audio Mixer Operation a. The G13120 Audio Mixer is designed to mix audio from up to 8 sources into 3 outputs. b. The first two inputs and outputs (1D and 2D) are considered Essential, and will remain functional even when the mixer is not powered or detects an internal fault due to the failsafe relays and detection internal to the mixer. c. If the mixer is not powered or is in fault mode (Essential), Input 1 will be connected directly via relay closure to Output 1D, and Input 2 will be connected directly to Output 2D. d. The direct inputs in essential mode are non-adjustable. e. The level that is present at Inputs 1 and 2 will be present at 1D and 2D respectively. f. Output 3 is not relay direct protected and will therefore drop off line in unpowered or fail mode. This output is designed to be a monitor port to a non-critical device. g. It is important to follow the setup instructions exactly in order for the mixer to work properly in the Essential Mode. SUBJECT REF. MDL. REPORT NO.

The installation of the Eagle Copters P139-HD Digital Audio System requires the application of accepted aircraft equipment practices, according to FAA publication, AC43.13-1B, ACCEPTABLE METHODS, TECHNIQUES AND PRACTICES, AIRCRAFT INSPECTION AND REPAIR, and the installer shall strictly comply with paragraph 428.a of that Advisory Circular. b. The requirement regarding the securing of wire bundles using nonmetallic clamps is addressed by the use of nylon cable ties. The part numbers and description of these ties is as follows: Cable Tie Selection Chart Thomas & Betts Brand Cat. No. UPC Bod Width in. Length in. Max. Wire Bundle Dia. in. Military Standard Part No. Tensile Strength lbs. TY23M 82436 .091 3.62 .625 MS3367-4 18 TY24M 82447 .140 5.50 1.125 MS3367-5 40 TY25M 82457 .184 7.31 1.750 MS3367-1 50 c. Following the guidelines in AC43.13-1B, cable ties are attached at a maximum of 4” spacing and ties are attached to nylon cable tie anchors, as necessary. d. The configuration of the wiring and cabling will vary from aircraft to aircraft. The installation of the Eagle Copters P139-HD Digital Audio System will not change the existing wiring or cabling, but rather will utilize existing wire and cable runs and will not interfere with the existing aircraft equipment installations.
