    INTRODUCTION

    The pressures of single-pilot nstru-ment flying place critical demands on theskill and concentration of any pilot.

    To help you meet the challenge, KingRadio has developed three digital, panel-mounted Silver Crown flight control systemsfor single and twin engine aircraft.

    These systems bring digital flight con-trol technology from the flight deck of thenew generation airliners to the cockpits ofpiston powered aircraft for the first time.The result is lightweight, compact flight con-trol systems which incorporate he functionsof computer, mode selector, and annuncia-tor in a single, panel-mounted unit. Thesedigital panel-mounted systems use fewerparts than previous generation flight controlsystems for singles and twins. And fewerparts mean potentially greater reliability.

    It's also significant hat these SilverCrown flight control systems have beendesigned from the beginning to interfacewith your Silver Crown package of

    '

    COMM/NAV Pulse products. Consider theadvantage of having your avionics workingtogether as an integrated system ratherthan as a group of unrelated componentsbuilt by several manufacturers.

    To fully utilize the impressive capabili-ties of your new digital, panel-mountedflight control system, you must understandthe performance capabilities and basicoperational requirements of theseadvanced-design Silver Crown systems.This pilot's guide is divided into three sec-tions. The first provides a general familiar-ization with each flight control systemincluding the associated panel-mounteddisplays. The second section describeseach system, including the KCS 55A slavedcompass system and its operation, as wellas optional altitude preselect/alertingandvertical speed hold. The final section cov-ers emergency procedures and optionalNAV 1/NAV2 switching.

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION:KFC 150,KAP 150AND KAP 100

    - -

    KFC 150 Flight Control SystemThe KFC 150 is the ultimate panel-

    mounted digital flight control system for sin-gles and twins. It has the autopilot capabili-ty you need, plus a complete flight directorsystem. The flight director provides attitudecommands for the pilot to hand-fly, or dis-plays to the pilot the commands being fol-lowed by the autopilot. The KFC 150 hascapabilities similar to King's popular KFC200 Flight Control System.

    U P 150 AutotMot SvstemThe M P 150 Autopilot System is atwo-axis, panel-mounted digital system

    which delivers highly sophisticated IFRcapability. It has modes and functions simi-lar to the KFC 150 but has no flight director.

    KAP 100 Autopilot SystemThe KAP 100Autopilot System is a

    single-axis panel-mounted digital systemwhich extends Silver Crown quality and reli-ability to an entirely new entry-level capabil-ity. The KAP 100 Autopilot is the mostaffordable option in the Silver Crown line offlight control systems and offers many sub-stantial workload relief benefits.

    The following chart highlights the majorattributes of each of the three systems

    NOTE: The KFC 150, KAP 150 and KAP 100 are designed as independent systemsto maximize their indi-vidual capabilities. Therefore they are not designed for conversion from one system to another.

    IMPORTANT: This Pilot's guide provides a general description of various operational characteristicsof theKFC 150, KAP 150 and KAP 100 Flight Control Systems. However, operation of a system should not beattempted without reviewing the specific information in the FAA approved Aircraft Flight Manual Supplementfor your particular aircraft type.

    SYSTEMS INTEGRATIONThe individual systems diagrams on

    pages 7,8, and 9, show the componentsand their relationships in typical KFC 150,U P 50 and KAP 100 Flight ControlSystems. The actual components used onindividual aircraft may vary slightly in orderto optimize certification and installationrequirements.

    Each system has a number of inputsand outputs: sensor outputs are shown inred; computation inputs shown in blue; dis-play outputs shown in orange; and aircraftcontrol shown in green. The systems dia-grams reflect that the KAP 150 and KFC150 systems control both pitch and roll axesof the aircraft. The KAP 100, being a sin-gle-axis system, controls only the roll axis ofthe aircraft. All sensor information (pitchand roll reference, heading and coursedatum, RNAV/VOR/LOC/GS deviation andflags, marker receiver and static pressure[altitude] is fed into the system's flight com-puter).

    The flight computer computes pitchand roll steering commands (or in the caseof the KAP 100, roll commands only). In theKFC 150 system these commands are rout-ed through the KI 256 Flight CommandIndicator (FCI), where they are displayed onthe V-Bar as visual guidance commands.

    In all three systems these steeringcommands are fed to the autopilot compu-tation circuits contained in the appropriateflight computer which generates the com-mands for the individual servos to manipu-late the ailerons, elevator and elevator trim.An optional yaw channel is available forsome aircraft, but is independent of pitchand roll commands.mands in the KFC 150 system for flightdirector and autopilot provides totally con-sistent flight director steering command andautopilot control. There is no disagreementin computation. The autopilot simply con-verts the pitch and roll steering commandsfrom the flight computer, displayed on theV-Bar in the FCI, into the required elevatorand aileron position commands. Full inte-gration of flight director and autopilot allowsthe pilot to delegate the manual effort of fly-ing the aircraft to the autopilot while moni-toring its activity with the flight director.

    Through the use of extensive monitorcircuits in the 100 series flight control sys-tems, safer control of the aircraft is provid-ed, since failures are predominantly "soft"(aircraft control is automatically returned tothe pilot when a fault is detected). Becauseof this safety factor, the 100 series flightcontrol systems are able to providesmoother control of the aircraft due toincreased servo authority.

    The internal monitors continuouslycheck for the presence of operating pitchand roll microprocessors, adapter modules(used to tailor the autopilot to individual air-craft models), pitch and roll reference sig-nals, proper internal voltages, trim power,"runaway" auto trim, wrong direction of trim,abnormal pitch attitude rates, and abnormalroll attitude rates.

    The trip levels for pitch and roll attituderates and duration are independently set onthe adapter modules for each aircraft.

    Digital design allows the incorporationof these monitors without the weight andspace penalties associated with previoustechnology systems. Now these importantsafety features are available to the opera-tors of piston engine aircraft at a reasonableprice.

    OPERATING THEKFC 150SYSTEMInitial Power On

    When initially powered (no modesselected), the KFC 150 will display aircraftattitude on the FCI and aircraft heading onthe PNI. The V-bar will be biased out ofview. The trim light will be lit on the KC 192as a reminder of the need to perform thesystem self-test.

    Svstem Self-Test

    The KFC 150 system incorporatesa sys-tem self-test function which is activated by atest button on the KC 192 ModeController/Computer/Annunciator.The testmust be performed before the autopilot portionof the system can be used, but need not beperformed before using the flight director por-tion. This test determines, before takeoff, thatthe system is operating normally. To perform atest- omentarily push the test button. Thefollowing actions will occur:

    1. All annunciator lights, the trim light andautopilot lights will illuminate.2. The trim light will flash 4 times.3. The annunciator legends will go blank,an aural tone will beep (approx. 6times) and the "AF" light will flash(approx. 12-13 times) and go off. (Ifthe AP light fails to flash you will beunable to engage the autopilot.)4. The KC 192 display will go blank.

    The test checks all digital computingcapability, the disconnect capability of theautopilot, the auto trim drive and monitorsystems, and the failure annunciator sys-tem. CAUTION: If the trim legend flashesor remains on at the end of the test it indi-cates there is a failure in the trim systemand the autopilot will not engage.

    Attitude Reference Modeof OperationThe system will be in the basic attitudereference or "gyro" mode with engine(s)running and aircraft power on, but nomodes selected (annunciator panel blank).Aircraft heading is shown on the PNI androll and pitch attitude on the FCI.Attitude Gyro Operation Note: Whenshutting down the aircraft for short periodsof time, make sure the Attitude Gyro hascompletely spun down before starting oper-

    ations again. Gyro spin down occurs whenthe air supply is cut off to the gyro and usu-ally takes about 10 minutes.During Gyro spin down most gyroshave a tendency to "tilt" (precess) to oneside. If the air supply is reapplied to thegyro while in this state, slow gyro erection(leveling) will occur due to gyro inertia. Ifaircraft operations are initiated before thegyro is fully erected, there is a greater pos-sibility that the gyro may tumble causingloss of primary attitude information from theAttitude Gyro.

    FLIGHT DIRECTOR (FD) MODEThe flight director mode is activatedby depressing the "FD" button on the mode

    controller or the CWS button on the controlwheel. The V-bar will appear and providecommands to maintain wings level and thepitch attitude existing at the time ofengagement. To satisfy the V-bar com-mand the pilot can manually fly the orangedelta wing "aircraft" into the V-bar to alignthe top of the delta wing flush with the bot-tom edge of the V-bar. Or the pilot canengage the autopilot and let it satisfy thecommands by maneuvering the aircraft in asimilar manner.

    NAVIGATION (NAV,MODEWO R. RNAV)The Navigation (NAV) mode providesguidance to the pilot (or autopilot) in inter-

    cepting and tracking VOR and RNAV cours-es. To operate in the navigation mode:1. Tune the frequency for the selected

    VOR (or VORTAC) station. For RNAV,set in the waypoint distance and VOR-TAC radial.2. Set the PNI course pointer to thedesired course.3. Establish the desired intercept angleby setting the heading 'bug' on theintercept heading, and activate HDGmode. ('HDG" light will illuminate.)

    4. Depress the "NAV button on the KC192. ("NAV' light will flash to signifythat the NAV mode is armed.)

    NOTE: If the NAV mode is selected withthe aircraft level within i4degrees of bankand within 2-3 dots of course deviation,NAV/ARM will be bypassed and the NAVmode will engage directly.

If the autopilot isengaged it will turn to satisfy the com-mands. As the V-bar commands theturn to intercept he selected course,the heading mode will be canceledand the APR mode will go from arm toengage. (HDG light will go out andAPR light will go from flashing tosteady.)

    6. The V-bar will continue to commandthe required bank to maintain courseand the autopilot (if engaged) will sat-isfy those commands. (Automaticcrosswind compensation will provideprecise tracking. VOR/LOC deviationis shown on the PNI, and actual crabangle is shown by offset of the coursearrow from the lubber line.)

    AUTO/MANUAL TRIMThe KFC 150 includes as standard

    equipment an automatic and manual elec-tric trim. The automatic trim allows the KFC150 system to trim off elevator control sur-face pressures while the autopilot is control-ling the elevator through a pitch servo. If theautopilot is not engaged, and the pilot ishand flying the aircraft, he can use a manu-al electric trim switch mounted on the yoketo trim off elevator control forces.NOTE: See the Flight Manual Supplementfor detailed instructions on your particularaircraft.

    CONTROL WHEEL STEERINGMODE (CWS)With the autopilot engaged, control

    wheel steering (CWS) allows the pilot tomaneuver the aircraft without disengagingthe autopilot.To use control wheel steering, depressthe CWS button on the yoke. This releasesthe autopilot servos and allows you toassume manual control while autopilot con-trol functions are placed in a synchroniza-tion state. This means that when yourelease the CWS button, the autopilot willsmoothly resume control of the aircraft andfly it to the lateral command you were usingprior to engaging CWS. The vertical com-mand used by the autopilot will be the oneexisting when CWS is released.

Use pitch attitudehold or select a vertical speed to guide theaircraft to the new altitude.As the aircraft nears the selected alti-tude, a pitch round out is computed by theKAS 2978 based on the aircraft's verticalspeed. When the KAS 2978 determines theround out should begin, the display willchange from arm (ARM) to capture (CAPT)and Vertical Speed mode will be disen-gaged if it was in use. At the selected alti-tude, Altitude Hold is engaged and CAPTmode is disengaged.

    DESCRIPTIONOE I/)IDICATORAND DISPLAY FUNCTIONSCompass Card - Responding to the

    input from the slaved directional gyro, thiscard rotates within the display so that theaircraft heading is always at the top, underthe lubber line.

    Lubber Line - A fixed white marker atthe top of the display that indicates aircraftmagnetic heading on the compass card.

    Symbolic Aircraft - A fixed representa-tion of the actual aircraft. This miniature air-craft always points toward the top of thedisplay and the lubber line.

    Selected Course Pointer - On this two-part arrow, the 'head' indicates the desiredVOR or Localizer course and the 'tail' indi-cates the reciprocal. This pointer is set byrotating the course select knob.

    Course Select Knob - Used to rotatethe course pointer to the desired course onthe compass card. This knob correspondsto the Omni Bearing Selector (OBS) onstandard NAV indicators.

    VOWRNAV and LOC Deviation Bar -This bar corresponds to the 'left/right" nee-dle on standard course deviation indicators.When the aircraft is precisely on the VORradial or Localizer course, it forms the cen-ter section of the selected course pointerand will be positioned under the symbolicaircraft. When off course or approaching anew course, it will move to one side or theother. Since the entire VOR and Localizerdisplay rotates with the compass card, theangular relationship between the deviationbar and the symbolic aircraft provides apictorial symbolic display of the aircraft'sposition with respect to the selected course.

    Deviation Scale - When tuned to aVOR frequency, each white dot represents 2degrees of deviation left or right of course.When tuned to a Localizer, the deviation is1/2 degree per dot. In RNAV "APR' thescale is 1/4 nautical mile per dot. In RNAV'ENROUTE' mode the scale is 1 nauticalmile per dot.*

    Heading Select Bug - A movableorange marker on the outer perimeter of thedisplay, used primarily to select the desiredheading you wish to fly. This desired head-ing is coupled to the KFC 150 FlightDirector, KAP 150 Autopilot or KAP 100Autopilot to provide the 'Heading Select'function.

    Heading Select Knob - Used to rotatethe heading select bug to a desired pointon the compass card.

    To-From Indicator - A white trianglenear the center of the display that indicates,with reference to the OBS setting, whetherthe course selected is 'to' or "from' theselected VOR station and/or RNAV way-point.

    Dual Glideslop Pointers - Chartreusetriangular pointers on either side of the dis-play drop into view when a usable glides-lope signal is received and retract out ofview when the glideslope signal becomesmarginal. During an ILS approach, thesepointers represent the vertical orientation ofthe ai craft with respect to the center of thepointers will align with the center markerson the glideslop&fsc$e. .glides6 e beam.

    Glideslope Deviation Scale - Whitedots on each side of the display which, inconjunction with the glideslope pointers,indicate either 'above', 'below', or 'onglideslope' during an ILS approach.

    Compass Warning Flag - A red flaglabeled 'HDG' becomes visible in theupper right quadrant of the display when-ever the electrical power is inadequate orthe directional gyro is not up to speed.Compass failures can occur which will notbe annunciated by the 'HDG" flag.Therefore, periodic comparison with thestandby compass is advised.

    NAV Warning Flag - A red flag labeled'NAV' becomes visible in the upper leftquadrant of the display whenever a usableVOR or Localizer signal is not beingreceived. If RNAV is installed and the sys-tem is in RNAV mode, both VOR and DMEmust be usable before the NAV flag will dis-appear.

    Slaving Meter - This meter indicates anydifference between the displayed headingand the magnetic heading. Right or updeflection indicates a clockwise error of thecompass card. Left or down deflection indi-cates a counterclockwise error of the com-pass card. Whenever the aircraft is in a turnand the card rotates, it is normal for thismeter to show a full deflection to one side orthe other.

    NOTE: During level flight it is normal forthe meter needle to continuously move fromside to side and to be fully deflected during aturn. If the needle stays fully deflected, left orright, during level flight, the free gyro modecan be used to center it, as described below.

    Slave and Free Gyro Switch (KA 51A) -When depressed, the system is in the slavedgyro mode. When the button is in the outerposition (not engaged) the system is in thefree gyro mode. (KA 518) - Operation isidentical except switch is pulled and movedto the appropriate position.

    Until power is applied to the KCS 55ASystem, and the directional gyro is up tospeed, a red flag labeled 'HDG' will bevisible in the upper right quadrant of theKI 525A Indicator. In operation, this warn-ing flag will be visible whenever the powerbeing supplied is inadequate or the gyrois not up to speed.With the application of power to the KCS55A System, and gyro up to operatingspeed, the red 'HDG' flag should disap-pear from view.If the KCS 55A System is in the slavedgyro mode, the compass card will aut@matically fast slave at the rate of 180degrees per minute toward the aircraft'smagnetic heading. (Immediately afterapplying power, this compass card move-ment should be quite visible.) It will con-tinue to fast slave until the proper magnet-ic heading is indicated, after which it willslave at a constant rate of 3 degrees perminute to keep the system aligned withthe earth's magnetic field.Under some conditions it is possible forthe system to stop slaving exactly 180degrees from the correct heading. If thisshould occur, move the 'Slave' switch onthe KA 51A or KA 518 to the unslaved(free) position. Rotate the compass card+ l o degrees from the incorrect headingby using the manual rotation switch andthen return the system to slaved opera-tion. The system will then slave to the cor-rect heading.For free gyro operation, check the mag-netic compass to determine the correctmagnetic heading. Then use the manualslave switch to align the system with theearth's magnetic field. Periodic checkswith the standby compass are recom-mended to check and correct for gyroprecession.

    Until a usable navigation signal is beingreceived by the NAV system, a red flaglabeled "NAV will be visible in the upperleft quadrant of the KI 525A Indicator. Inoperation, this warning flag should be visi-ble whenever an inadequate navigationsignal is being received.For normal navigation to or from a VOR orVORTAC, set the NAV receiver to thedesired VOR or VORTAC frequency andthe red navigation flag (NAV) should dis-appear from view if a usable signal isbeing received.Rotate the course select knob to positionthe course pointer to the desired VORcourse.The VOR deviation bar represents theselected course, and the relationship ofthis bar to the symbolic aircraft in the cen-ter of the instrument visually presents theactual relationship of the selected courseto your aircraft heading. (In other words, ifthe symbolic aircraft on the display indi-cates approaching the deviation bar at 45degrees, that is the angle at which youraircraft is actually approaching the select-ed course.)To prepare for an ILS approach, tune theNAV receiver to the desired Localizer fre-quency. If a usable Localizer signal isbeing received, he NAV warning flag willdisappear.For a front or back course approach,rotate the course select knob to set thecourse pointer on the inbound Localizercourse. As with normal navigation (#6above), the LOC deviation bar representsthe desired Ccjurse. The relationshipbetween this bar and the symbolic aircraftgives a true picture of your aircraft's posi-tion with respect to the Localizer course.Always setting the course pointer to theinbound Localizer course provides thecorrect deviation bar sensing whether fly-ing a front or back course approach.

    The glideslope deviation pointers shouldbecome visible on both sides of the dis-play when a usable glideslope signal isreceived. If they do not come into view, ausable glideslope signal is not beingreceived.The glideslope pointers indicate the rela-tive position of the glideslope path withrespect to the aircraft. (In other words, ifthe pointers are above the center marker,the aircraft is below the glideslope.)

    Abnormal Circum stancesIf the Warning Flag (HDG) appears

    during operation, the compass card indica-tions will be in error. Power may beremoved from the KG 102A Directional Gyroby pulling the appropriate circuit breaker.The Selected Course, VORLOC DeviationBar, the NAV flag, and the ToFrom Indicatorwill remain in operation.

    If the Navigation Warning Flag (NAV)appears during operation, there are severalpossibilities: (1) the NAV receiver is notturned on, (2) the NAV receiver is improper-ly tuned, (3) the ground VOR or LOC stationis malfunctioning, 4) the aircraft is out ofrange of the selected ground station, (5) theaircraft NAV receiver has malfunctioned, (6)if in RNAV mode the DME has malfunc-tioned. (The compass card will continue todisplay the aircraft heading even if a usableNAV signal is not being received.)

    If the glideslope pointers remain out ofview during a front course ILS approach,either the aircraft glideslope receiver or theground station glideslope transmitter is mal-functioning. Glideslope is usually not avail-able during a back course approach. (TheVOR and LOC course display will continueto function normally even if a usable glides-lope signal is not being received.)

    A continuous large deflection of theslaving meter or large discrepanciesbetween the magnetic compass and the KI525A compass card may indicate a failurein the slaving system. If a slaving failureshould occur, the Slave/Free Switch shouldbe moved to select the free gyro mode.Then, by using manual clockwise or coun-terclockwise corrections, the compass cardcan be rotated to the correct heading asindicated on the standby compass. TheKCS 55A system should continue to func-tion normally except the heading informa-tion will be solely derived from the KG 102ADirectional Gyro. There will be no automat-ic heading correction and periodic adjust-ments must be made manually to correct forprecession by reference to the standbymagnetic compass, as with any directionalgyro.NOTE: It is desirable to disconnect theautopilot under the following conditions:

    1.HDG flag comes into view.2. System is in fast slave.3. During manual slaving.The system has the capability to sup-

    ply the autopilot with an automatic discon-nect signal under these conditions.NOTE:For system limitations n your partic-ular aircraft type, refer to your Flight ManualSupplement.

    3. The KI 525A shows you that you haveintercepted he localizer course. Theglideslope pointers have started to center,although the display indicates your aircraftis still below the glidepath at this point.

    4. You are now centered on the localizer andthe glideslope. Once again, the KI 525Ashows your aircraft is crabbed about 5degrees to the right to maintain the local-izer course.NOTE: For system limitations refer to yourFlight Manual Supplement.

    /E VERSE LOCALIZERAPPROACH - (BC)If a back course approach is

    required, it can be accomplishedas easily as a front courseapproach. The course arrowshould always be set on the frontcourse inbound localizer course.This will result in conventional pic-torial deviation sensing even onback course. The KI 525A displaygives you an accurate picture ofwhere you are at all times duringthe approach and procedure turn

    I"-B

    1. You are outbound on the back localizercourse, having already set the coursepointer to the inbound front course at 238degrees. The heading bug is preset at193 degrees for the procedure turn.(Since there is usually no glideslope sig-nal on a back course, the glideslopepointers are out of sight.)

    3. Now you've reset the heading bug to 013degreesand made a 180degree turn tothis heading. This 013 degree headingwill intercept he back course. The KI525A clearly pictures the course you areto intercept and the angle of interception.

    /

    2. During the procedure urn outbound, thedeviation bar shows pictorially hat the air-craft (as represented by the symbolic air-craft in the center of the KI 525A) is flyingdegree angle when the heading bug isunder the lubber line. Note that left-rightdeviations of the course bar give 'fly-to'indicators, ust as on the front course.

    away from the localizer centerline at a 45u. You have smoothly intercepted he backcourse. Since the course arrow is set onthe front course (238 degrees), he KI525A shows a true picture of the situation-flying inbound on the back course. Youmay reset the heading bug to 058degrees for easy reference.

    2. The following conditions will cause AP toInterrupt button.

    automatically disengage:a. External power failure.b. Actuating manual electric trim.*c. Internal Flight Control System failure.d. With KCS 55A system, a loss ofcompass valid (displaying HDG flag)disengages the AP and FD when amode using heading information sengaged. With compass flagpresent, only FD and vertical modescan be selected. I

    CAUTION: Exact Emergency Proceduresvary from aircraft to aircraft because of dif-ferences in electrical systems, instrumentarrangements and flight characteristics.Consult the Flight Manual Supplement foryour particular aircraft for detailed instruc-tions on emergency procedures.

    OPTIONAL NAV 1/NAV2 SWITCHINGIt is possible to obtain an optional NAV

    1/NAV 2 switching system for the KFC 150,KAP 150or KAP 100 to allow the autopilotto fly sensor information from either theNumber 1 VOR/ILS/RNAV navigation radioor the Number 2 VOR/ILS/RNAV navigationradio.

    With the switch installed on the cock-pit panel, the pilot merely flips the switch ifhe wants to have the autopilot fly informa-tion from the Number 2 radio. This may beparticularly helpful if either the Number 1 orNumber 2 radio should fail.

    When installed with a 100 series flightcontrol using the KCS 55A compass sys-tem, a special status KI 525A PNI and aspecial status CDI are required. Whenusing the number 2 system always set theOBS to the desiied course. This includessetting the front course heading for eitherILS Front or Back Course approaches.

    When installed with a 100 series flightcontrol using the KG 107. no special statusCDl's are necessary.
