EFIS-D60 Installation Guide
3-9
The AOA, pitot, and static ports on the back of the
EFIS-D60 are equipped with 1/8” NPT Female
fittings. To attach your pitot and static lines to the
back of the EFIS-D60, you must use standard 1/8”
NPT Male fittings at the end of each of the lines.
The EFIS-D60’s attitude calculation
requires either airspeed (from pitot
and static) or GPS data. To ensure
proper operation, at least one of these
data sources must be available. We
recommend the EFIS-D60 be
connected to pitot and static systems
in all installations.
To install, simply connect your static and pitot
sources to the EFIS-D60. T’ing off of existing lines
is acceptable if performing a retrofit or connecting
in parallel with other instruments. View the
following back view diagram the placement of your pressure lines.
Use a wrench to secure the mating pressure line fittings to the corresponding locations on the
back of the EFIS-D60. Do not over-tighten.
If you purchased Dynon’s AOA pitot tube, note that it has pitot and AOA ports on it, but not
static. You will need to provide your own source of static pressure for the EFIS-D60 and any
other instrument in your panel which requires it.
