This high resolution 10.2” Widescreen LCD is perfect for cabin video and graphical entertainment. Built with retrofit aircraft integration in mind, this display can switch between three video input sources using an infrared remote or the control buttons on the top of the monitor.
Front View
Additional Information
The articulating arm rotates 180 degrees, tilts forward and aft, and the monitor can turn 180 degrees on the end of the mount.
The FD102ARM can also be connected to existing video switchers and can take a composite video input from a selector interface box. Multiple input sources can be selected and displayed on the monitor.
The FD102ARM cabinet is made of all metal components. DO-160 testing has been completed and is available upon request.
The LCD is protected with a .060” Lexan lens. The purpose of this lens is to prevent scratching of the LCD.

Installation Instructions
All cabin entertainment equipment, such as the FD102ARM, should be installed on a non­essential bus and have a dedicated circuit breaker. It is a requirement that a switch be installed in the cockpit so that the pilot can de-energize the entertainment system should it become necessary.
It is recommended that you leave approximately ¼ inch of space around the rear of the display to have circulating air.
Power
This is a 12VDC monitor that requires 2 Amps of power to operate. This is also available as FD102ARM (28V) which is a 28VDC monitor that requires .5 Amp of power to operate.
The unit turns on automatically upon power application.

Wiring Suggestions
All shields should be grounded to the connector at the source, and floating at the display. Avoid routing video wiring parallel to:
AC wiring Strobe wiring DC motor supply cables Inverter cabling Or any other potential noise source.
S-Video/Composite and Audio Wiring
Recommended cable for s-video/composite and audio purposes is PIC 75 Ohm Coax, P/N V76261. This is a lightweight, flexible, and low signal loss cable which meets FAA flammability requirements of FAR 23.1359(d), FAR 25.853(a) and FAR 25.869(a)(4).
Similar aviation coaxial cable can be used from other vendors, as well. Some aircraft are prone to AC noise - we recommend adding to the composite source a
75 Ohm video isolation transformer such as Deerfield Laboratory, Inc. Part No. 162-1 (www.deerfieldlab.com, (650) 632-4090). In most cases this should be added to the video output of the source.

VGA Wiring
Recommended cable for VGA purpose is ECS P/N 453005. This is a single shielded cable containing 5 separate coaxial cables, color-coded to match the functions of the wires.
The individual wires should be extended with 6” 22awg wires using an environmental
splice for the red & green wires, and Raychem caps for the blue, white, and black wires.
Mounting and Base Information
The FD102ARM mates with a drink rail mount (FDBASE, below left), a wall mount (FDBASE-W, below right) or a flush wall mount (FDBASE-W-FM, not shown).
The connector seats deeply in the mount and is held in place by either gravity or a locking pin. The secure High Density DB15 pin and connector can only be connected one direction. The mount is keyed to prevent inadvertent misalignment.
