A. Locate the Intensity Control Pot in the CP-1 packet. Find an appropriate mounting location on the

aircraft instrument panel for the Control Pot. The Pot will require a 2" clearance behind the aircraft
instrument panel.

B. Mark the aircraft instrument panel and drill a 1/4" hole for the Pot.

C. Mount the Pot from behind the aircraft instrument panel and install the knob.

2.19 Install the Master Warning (red) and Caution (yellow) Lights:

The Warning and Caution Lights do not have to be installed unless the MVP is
installed more than 8" from the pilot’s visual centerline.

A. Locate the Red (AL-1R) and Yellow (AL-1Y) lights in the kit. Find an

appropriate mounting location within 8" of the pilot's visual centerline.
The lights will require 3/4" clearance behind the aircraft instrument
panel.

B. Mark the aircraft instrument panel and drill a 5/16" hole for each light.

Install the Red Warning Light and the Yellow Caution Light from
behind the aircraft instrument panel.

Note: If the MVP Master Warning and Caution Outputs are connected to other lights or devices, the

current must be limited to 0.1 amps. The outputs pull to ground when active.

2.20 Installing the EDC-33P:

The EDC-33P (Engine Data Converter) converts all of the analog
engine signals into serial data which is output to the MVP display via
two wires (RS422). The EDC unit measures 4.5" long by 3.5" wide
by 2.2" high. There are three 37-pin D-sub connectors that interface
to the various probes, modules or direct connections to the aircraft.

Mount the EDC on the inside firewall under the aircraft instrument
panel or in an equipment bay. For a twin-engine aircraft the EDC can
be mounted on the opposite side of the firewall of the engine or in the cabin or equipment bay. Use the holes
in the bottom plate of the EDC to mount the unit. Be sure you will have enough room to connect the three D-
sub connector wire harnesses to the EDC. Note: If you run out of channels on the EDC, a second EDC may be
installed and connected to the MVP.
