To set minimum dimming, turn the instrument panel and/or side panel dimming
rheostats clockwise to ensure all electroluminescent panels are illuminated, then
adjust counter clockwise until desired minimum level is set.
Ensure all panels remain illuminated.
Area Lighting
Area lighting is controlled by a dimming rheostat (FLOOD) located on the forward
left console of each cockpit. Rotation allows variable adjustment of the area lights.
Power for the area lighting is provided through a circuit breaker, placarded FLDT,
located on the battery bus circuit breaker panel in each cockpit.
Instrument Panel Lighting
Instrument panel lighting and console lighting are controlled by two dimming
rheostats located on the forward left console of each cockpit. One control is for the
instrument panel (INST), and the other is for the side consoles (SIDE).
Rotation allows variable adjustment of the panel lights. Power for the instrument
panel lighting is provided through a circuit breaker, placarded INST, located on the
battery bus circuit breaker panel in the front cockpit, and a circuit breaker,
placarded INST LT, located on the battery bus circuit breaker panel in the rear
cockpit.
Power for the console lighting is provided through a circuit breaker, placarded
SIDE, located on the generator bus circuit breaker panel in the front cockpit, and a
circuit breaker, placarded SIDE LT, located on the generator bus circuit breaker
panel in the rear cockpit.
Utility Light
A utility light is provided on the right console of each cockpit. This light can be
detached and relocated to the right canopy rail for use as an area light or map light,
or the light may be detached as required for local illumination.
The utility light is powered through a coil cord to allow freedom of movement to any
position in the cockpit. A variable dimmer with an OFF position is an integral part of
the utility light, as is a selectable red lens for preserving night vision.
Power for the utility lights is provided through a circuit breaker, placarded UTIL,
located on the battery bus circuit breaker panel in the front cockpit, and a circuit
breaker, placarded UTIL LT, located on the battery bus circuit breaker panel in the
rear cockpit.
