AXN grounding
Each isolated ground signal should be connected to the main star point on the aircraft or vehicle using a low
impedance connection.
Hence the GND pins on the AXN PSU connector, and the POWER (-) pin on the PSU connector should be
connected directly to the star point.
It is acceptable to use the ground mounting bolt on the PSU instead of the CHASSIS pin.
A common cable should not be used to take more than one of these signals to the star point.
NOTE: When more than one AXN is used, each AXN should be connected to the star point using individual cables.
Shared cables should not be used.

Validating grounding
After connecting the grounds, measure the resistance between each GND point, CHASSIS point and POWER (-)
on each AXN to the star point. The resistance should be below 50 mΩ.
