General Safety Precautions
CAUTION:
The two central connectors (50-pin MDR) of the MT­VisionAir X ETSO are connected identically; strictly avoid using both at the same time! This could cause severe damage of the device.
Never disconnect the conducting connector during operation. This could cause severe damage of the device.
Never store the device into the transport case when equipped with battery packs. This could cause overheating.
Always take care to allow sufcient ventilation of the
device when mounted. Otherwise overheating could occur.
Always connect ONLY ONE of these connectors.

1. General information for Operating a MT-VisionAir X ETSO
MT-VisionAir X ETSO was designed to be installed and operated as a panel
mounted device, but can easily be removed for ight planning.
MT-VisionAir X ETSO is equally suited as a hand-held device.
Fig. 1.1: MT-VisionAir X ETSO Panel mount installation in Piper JetProp
The Easy mount is permanently installed in the panel. The MT-VisionAir X
ETSO slides into the Easy mount, but can easily be removed for ight planning,
updates of the navigation data or charts, etc.

on the weight and balance calculation.
Following installation, an EMI test has to be performed in the aircraft. Prior
to the rst ight it is mandatory to turn on the system and check cockpit
instruments for deviations from normal performance.

3. Installation of MT-VisionAir X ETSO
3.1 Installation of Easy mount in the cockpit panel
For installation of the MT-VisionAir X ETSO an Easy mount is used. Choose the installation location according to requirement of application or preferences:
in the cockpit panel
in other locations, e.g. the yoke.
3.1.1 Choosing the best location
The MT-VisionAir X ETSO should be easily visible during ight.
Choose the optimum readability angle.
Refer to the following gures showing the dimensions of the Easy mount
(without and with MT-VisionAir X ETSO) before specifying the location of the panel cutout.

MTUX/IA-63-00 – Installation Manual
19Date: 2017/02/1700
3.1.3 Panel cutout
The Easy mount must be rmly attached to the cockpit panel with screws.
Please use countersunk screws or rivets for installation in the instrument panel (or onto the angled rail) as space of 158 mm including any protruding screwheads must remain available for the device.
Panel cutout dimensions:
Width: 157.5 mm minimum (with latches in the rack), 160.5 mm optimum Height: 128 mm Depth: 46 mm (all dimensions incl. 0.5 mm tolerance)
1. Installation for panel clearance of 160.5 mm
Mounting ush with cockpit panel or tilted mounting due to improved readability
angle (e.g. for mounting at co-pilots side).
Fig. 3.1.3 (1): Panel clearance 160.5 mm
2. Installation for panel clearance of 158 mm
Mounting at the rear side of the panel: to ush the unit with the panel relocate
the screws in the side mounting brackets.

3.1.6 Remarks regarding installation
The device can be adversely affected if it is allowed to vibrate against xed
parts of the aircraft - see the symbolic sketch below.
Fig. 3.1.6: Observe to avoid adverse effects
The locking mechanism of the Easy mount must be easy to operate.
Leave a loop of the cable and bundle the cables so that the device can be easily removed again.
spring action: very adverse effect

4. Installation of GPS
MT-VisionAir X ETSO is by default equipped with a Fast Integral GPS (with integrated antenna).
For the conguration of the correct GPS in the software refer to chapter “
Connections”.
4.1 Installation of Fast Integral GPS
4.1.1 Recommended installation location of the Fast Integral GPS
The manufacturer recommends installation of the Fast Integral GPS on the glare shield.
A windshield heater usually attenuates the incoming signal to such an extent that placing the antenna under it does not make sense.
A segment of the sky as large as possible must be visible for the antenna (integrated in the GPS!). The cable length is limited to 20 m.
Because of the high peaks of the digital signal a well shielded cable is recommended to prevent interference with other units.
For the installation a ground plate (min 20x20 cm) made of conducting material is recommended. Provide ground connection to aircraft structure. On this ground plate the antenna is mounted with upward vision. Conducting material (e.g. galvanized sheet metal) improves the reception.
Fig. 4.1.1: Installation of the Fast Integral GPS on the glare shield
NOTES
For a glare shield made of plastics, installation beneath the glare shield is also possible. In this case observe to install the Fast Integral GPS top side up.
The Fast Integral GPS can also be mounted on the outside of the aircraft. In general a temperature limit of –20 °C must be observed.
