1) InstallationOverview
Theoverallinstallationprocedureisasfollows:
1. Powertheinstrumentonthebenchtoverifyitwasreceivedinworkingorder.
2. Installtheinstrumentintheinstrumentpanel.
3. Installtheprobes,sensors,andtransducersintheenginecompartment.
4. Connecttheconnectorstotheinstrument.
5. Mountthedataportconnectorandoptionalfuelflowtoggleswitchtotheinstrumentpanel.
6. Runtheharnessfromtheinstrumentintheinstrumentpanelthroughthefirewalltotheengine
compartment.Dressthewirestotheprobes,sensors,andtransducers.
7. Cuttheexcesslengthofftheharnesswiresandconnecttotheprobes,sensors,andtransducers.
8. Verifysystemoperation.
9. Setthealarmlimitsandothercalibrationconstants.
2) InitialBenchCheck
ConnecttheP1connectortotherearoftheEGT701andconnecttheredwireto+12Vor+24Vandtheblack
