I do not want to hook it up to a dimmer but would like it to light up when I turn the unit on. I do not have a pin out for my transponder and wounder if someone could tell me how to correct this problem. Thanks Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=150008#150008 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:12:17 AM PST US From: "Charles Reiche" Subject: Re: Avionics-List: Transponder King KX76a If you hook it up to your power source (bus, with a 1A fuse holder just to protect it) make sure that the kt76 is wired for 14v lighting. I know that these units run off 14V and work through a dropping resistor when I install them in 28v airplanes, but I beleive that the lighting circuit can run on either depending where you put grounds. Or you could configure it for 28V lights and it would them be half bright all the time. Im not sure. Maybe some fiddling with a multi-pole switch that could be configured to brighten or dim the backlighting inside the unit. Having it light up when you turn on the unit cant really be done(if you mean the OFF/STBY/ON/ALT switch)...... well just have the lighting power come after the avionics master or whatever.... just some ideas.
