  Secure the SV-COM-T8 to the aircraft via the three (3) mounting holes in the plate. The unit 
should be mounted to a flat surface – it is important that the tray is supported at the 
dimples as well as the three mounting points. 
  Put the SV-COM-T8 into the secured mounting tray by hooking the connector end under the 
lip on the tray. 
  Lock the SV-COM-T8 into the mounting tray by clipping the retaining wire over the lugs on 
the opposite end. 
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 transponder 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 transponder tray. 
  Circuit breaker or fuse for power to SV-COM-T8 and SV-COM-PANEL 
  Power wires to SV-COM-T8 
  SV-COM-T8 to SV-COM-PANEL wiring 
  SkyView Network cables to connect the SV-COM-PANEL to SkyView Network
