Kt 70 Installation Manual !exclusive! -
Remove paint around the mounting holes on the inside of the fuselage to ensure a clean, metal-to-metal RF ground bond. Coaxial Cable Requirements
Proper altitude reporting matched to the primary altimeter.
: Requires a standard L-band blade or whip antenna.
requires precise wiring for power, ground, and altitude encoding. Kt 70 Installation Manual
The antenna requires a metallic ground plane. On composite or wood aircraft, you must install a fabrication sheet of aluminum (minimum 12x12 inches) inside the fuselage skin to act as a ground plane. RF Cable Specifications
Accepts standard gray code altitude data (A1, A2, A4, B1, B2, B4, C1, C2, C4). Suppressor In/Out
: Secure the mounting rack to the instrument panel using 6-32 screws. The rack must be rigid and level. Remove paint around the mounting holes on the

: Mutual Suppression Pulse (links to DME or other transponders to prevent simultaneous transmission). Wire Specifications
The KT 70 mounts directly into a standard 6.25-inch aircraft avionics stack using the dedicated BendixKing mounting sleeve. requires precise wiring for power, ground, and altitude
: Technicians utilize dedicated test sets (such as an IFR6000 or similar ramp analyzer) to query the transponder's Mode A framing, Mode C pulse intervals, and Mode S discrete address identity.
To report altitude to Air Traffic Control (ATC), the KT 70 must be connected to an altitude encoder or a digitizing altimeter. The KT 70 supports standard Gilham (Gray) Code input. Gillham Code (Parallel) Wiring
: Ensure the instrument panel has at least 11.5 inches of depth clearance behind the panel to accommodate the unit, mounting rack, and rear connectors.
The KT 70 is built to fulfill Mode S requirements for the Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS). AeroElectric Power Requirements: 11–33 VDC. Max Power Consumption: Operational Altitude: Up to 50,000 feet. Operating Temperature: -20°C to +55°C.
