INTRODUCTION
Installation Planning
• Plan the location of the display such that it is not positioned near any source of high cur
rent and is easily visible by the pilot.
• The engine harnesses should be positioned away from sources of high energy, such as
ignition harnesses, P-leads, alternator wiring and high frequency radio antennas.
• Some thought about the process and steps needed may save hours of installation time
and trouble-shooting.
Tools and Materials Required
• Proper wire stripping tools.
• Proper crimping tools, Insight recommends;
• M22520/2-01Crimping tool and M22520/2-08 Positioner or equivalent.
• Insertion/extraction tool for Amp pin #205089-1.
• Trip-free, re-settable Circuit-breaker(1 AMP).
• Hardware and plumbing for mounting and connection of the G3’s Oil Pressure Sensor, and the G3’s
Manifold Pressure connection.
INSTALLING THE G3 GRAPHIC ENGINE MONITOR
Installing the Display
Model G3 displays mount in a 2.25 inch diameter display cutout. Care should be given to provide sufficient
depth allowance for harness and cable routing at the rear of the display.
See Drawing #610C-001 on for display outline and hole layout.
A new GEM installation will require four mounting holes and two holes for the control knobs in addition to the
2.25 inch hole.
The G3 GEM will fit directly into the holes from a previously installed GEM Model 610.
Upgrading from GEM 602 or 603 will require a single new hole for the control knob.
Connections to the GEM G3 series displays shall be made in accordance with Drawing No’s. 610C-315 and
1200-018.
NOTE: Check for the possible existence of a “double” ground, particularly if the G3 is a replacement for a pre-
viously installed GEM display. The G3 must have only one ground connection.
