15.1 Mechanical Installation
The figures on the following pages show recommended panel cutouts, mounting hole
patterns, and mechanical dimension for the SV-COM-PANEL/V (vertical) and SV-COM-
PANEL/H (horizontal). Use these diagrams to plan for the space required by the display.
To mount an SV-COM-PANEL, cut the opening in your panel, drill out the mounting holes,
install nutplates, and use the included mounting screws to fasten the display to the panel.
Your SV-COM-X83 is shipped with #6-32 hex-drive round head fasteners. Fasteners are
5/8” long and require a 5/64” hex drive tool. Dynon Avionics recommends fastening the
included mounting screws to nut plates installed behind the panel. If access behind the
panel allows, standard #6-32 lock nuts or nuts with lock washers can be used. Do not
rivet the SV-COM-PANEL to the panel as this will hinder future removal if necessary.
The following installation procedure should be followed to install the remote transceiver
module, remembering to allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors.
• If you are installing two COM radios, it is acceptable to co-locate the two
transceiver modules.
• Select a position in the aircraft for the transceiver that is not too close to any
external external high-heat source and where reasonable airflow is available.
The transceiver is not a significant heat source itself and does not need to be
kept away from other devices for this reason.
• Avoid sharp bends and placing the cables too near to the aircraft control cables.
• Secure the transceiver to the aircraft via the four (4) mounting holes. The unit
should be mounted to a flat surface.
Additional items you will require for installation of SV-COM-X83, but which are not in the
SV-COM-X83 package, include:
• Nutplates for mounting SV-COM-PANEL to the panel
• To secure the SV-COM-X83 tray to the airframe you will need least 3 flat head
screws and three self-locking nuts. If the aircraft does not have existing mounting
provisions you may need to fabricate additional brackets to support the SV-COM-
X83 tray.
• Circuit breaker or fuse for power to SV-COM-T8 and SV-COM-PANEL
