1.5 EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
The AK-950 series control units contain specific dash numbers to be
used with various GPS receivers. The installer must match the correct
controller part number with the GPS receiver being installed.
This equipment GPS/NAV switching & Annunciator Panel is approved
for installation with the following model number only’
GPS model GNS 430 / SOOW / 530 / 530W
smin International Inc.
Installation of this equipment to any other GPS is disapproved.
‘The condition and tests required for TSO approval of this article are
minimum performance standards. It is the responsibility of those desiring
{o install this article either on or within a specific type or class of aircraft
to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are 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.
NOTE: Anytime the AK-950 is disconnected or removed from the
aircraft, the HSI / CDI will be inoperative in both NAV (VOR) and GPS

INSTALLATION AND TEST
UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
Extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Visual inspection
of the equipment for evidence of damage incurred during
shipment. Any claim should be promtly filed with the
transportation company. Save the shipping container to
subtantiate the claim. Retain the container and packaging
material for possible future use.
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
‘The AK-950 is designed with the installer in mind, All
accessories which are required for completing system
installation are provided, including Pre-fabricated Wiring Cable
Assembly,
EQUIPMENT LOCATION
‘The AK-950 must be mounted as close to the pilot's field of
view as possible. The preferable location is near the HSI / CDI
that will be displaying the FPS information. The unit depth,
with connector attached, must also be taken into
consideration.
Avoid mounting close to heater vents or other high heat
The indicator is secured in place behind the panel since it is
designed for rear mount only. Make a panel cutout as shown
in Figure 2-1. Secure the indicator in place with four 4-40 x
3/8 to 1,0" flat head phillips screws.
COOLING
No direct cooling is required. As with any electronic
equipment, overall reliability may be increased if the AK-950 is
not located near any high heat source or crowded next to other,
equipment. Means of providing a gentle air flow will be a plus.

ADDITIONAL ANNUNCIATIONS
Depending upon the installation and approving agency, you may
bbe required to provide additional NAV Source Select external
annunciators near the HS! / CDI. Spare relay contacts on the
AK-960 connector may be used for this purpose.
ADDITIONAL RELAYS
ROUTING OF CABLES
Care must be taken not to bundle the AK-960 logic and low
level signal lines with any high energy sources. Examples of
these sources include 400 Hz AC, Comm, DME, HF and
transponder transmitter coax. Always use shielded wire when
shown on the installation print. Avoid sharp bends in cabling
and routing near aircraft control cables.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Refer to figure 3-1 for Schematic Pinout Assignment for
Connector, and figure 3-2 for Electrical Schematic Diagram,
Wire the aircraft harness according to figure 3-3
Use at least 24 AWG wire for all connections. You
MUST use shielded wire where shown. Avoid sharp bends and
routing cable near high energy sources. Care must be taken to
tie the harness away from aircraft controls and cables. Normal
tallation techniques should be applied.

Please refer to the GNS-530 Garmin’s Installation Manual for
the remaining system tests.
No periodic maintenance or calibration is necessary for
continued airworthiness of the AK-960.
AUTO DIMMING TEST:
A Photocell provides tne Auto Dimming function. This can be
tested by covering the Photocell by hand and observing the
change in brightness.
NOTE:
1. There is an Adjustment Potentiometer located on
the side of the unit. Adjustment should be made when the unit
is installed in aircraft, and with night time lighting conditions.
2. Rotate the Potentiometer clockwise to dim the
annunciators. Rotate the Potentiometer counter-clockwise to
make the annunciators brighter.
3. Do not use excessive inward force on the
alignment tool, and do not use excessive rotational force.
Damage may result
