GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This manual contains information relative to the physical, mechanical, and electrical characteris-
tics of the Bendix/King KNR 634 and KNR 634A Gold Crown III NAV/ILS/Marker Beacon Receiv-
ers and the KFS 564 and KFS 564A Control Units. Installation and operating instructions are also
included.
1.2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
A KNR 634 or KNR 634A with either a KFS 564 or KFS 564A Control Unit and an appropriate in-
dicator comprise a complete 200 channel VOR/LOC system. An optional 40 channel Glideslope
receiver and an optional Marker Beacon receiver are available in certain versions of the KNR 634
and KNR 634A. Mechanical type control units manufactured by Gables Engineering, Coral Ga-
bles, Florida, may be used in lieu of the KFS 564 or KFS 564A.
The KNR 634 is an all solid state design which allows rigid mounting in any position. Frequency
and mode information is communicated with the control unit via a Honeywell format serial data
bus. Various versions of the KNR 634 offer a 40 channel Glideslope receiver, a Marker Beacon
receiver, or an XYZ RMI option which will provide 3-wire synchro RMI information in addition to
the Sine/Cosine OBI information provided by all versions of the KNR 634. Other features include
NAV and Glideslope Super Flag outputs and selectable (3 or 7 second) D-Bar response time.
The KNR 634A is identical to the KNR 634 with the exception of the NAV Converter. The KNR
634A will accept ARINC 429 serial format Selected Course and Runway Heading information and
will provide Omnibearing, Selected Course, Tuning Frequency, Localizer Deviation and Glides-
lope Deviation outputs in the ARINC 429 format. An additional feature on the KNR 634A is the
Selectable Declutter Switch. This switch changes the display by biasing the glideslope flag out of
view and the Glideslope D-Bar full up.
Both the KFS 564 and KFS 564A Control Units may be panel or console mounted and feature gas
discharge displays with automatic dimming. The KFS 564 is the standard control unit and features
Active/Standby frequency selection in which channel selection is accomplished by changing the
frequency displayed in the Standby window and then transferring this frequency into the Active
window via a transfer button on the control unit front panel or an optional remote transfer button.
Optional features available in the KFS 564 include:
• Black or gray bezel.
• 5 Vdc or 28 Vdc bezel lighting.
• Diffused or standard display lens.
• Available with or without volume control.
• Available with or without ON/OFF switch.
The KFS 564A is an optional control unit which offers all the features and options available in the
KFS 564. It may also be used in a tandem Master/Slave control unit configuration or as an integral
part of a Frequency Management system. Additional features common to all versions of the KFS
564A which are not available in the KFS 564 include:
• Channel Mode operation which allows pre-programmed frequencies to be recalled for use by
Channel number.
• Remote channeling capability which allows the system to step through previously pro-
grammed channels via a Remote Channel button.
• Direct channeling of the frequency displayed in the Active window.
• Civil or Military operating modes.
• Display dimmer override.

An overall degradation in sensitivity will be realized due to the insertion loss of the
coupler. The installer must verify that acceptable sensitivity and proper system per-
formance is realized in a system that utilizes a coupler. A minimum of 20 dB of GS
receiver-to-receiver isolation is required in dual installations employing a KX 155 or
KX 165 GS Receiver.
Examples of some common couplers are listed below. Contact the coupler manu-
facturer for specifications for the couplers listed.
SECTION II
INSTALLATION
2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
This section contains suggestions and factors to consider before installing the KNR 634, KNR
634A, KFS 564, and KNR 564A. Close adherence to these suggestions will ensure a more satis-
factory level of performance from the system. Read this section carefully before attempting any
aspect of the installation.
The conditions and test required for the TSO/ETSO and MOPS approval of this article are mini-
mum performance standards. It is the responsibility of those installing this article either on or with
a specified type or class of aircraft to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within
the TSO/ETSO and MOPS standards. These articles must have separate approval for installation
in an aircraft. Any features in this equipment outside the requirements of this applicable TSO/
ETSO and MOPS must be evaluated and approved as part of the installation approval. The article
may be installed only if further evaluation by the applicant confirms that the installation is accept-
able and is approved by the Administrator.
2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
Exercise extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Make a visual inspection of the unit for
evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If a claim for damage is to be made, save the ship-
ping container to substantiate the claim. The claim should be promptly filed with the transportation
company. It would be advisable to retain the container and packaging material after all equipment
has been removed in the event that equipment storage or reshipment should become necessary.
2.3 EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
2.3.1 COOLING CONSIDERATIONS
The greatest single contributor to increased reliability of all modern day avionics is to limit the max-
imum operating temperature of the individual units whether panel mounted or remote mounted.
While modern day circuit designs consume far less electrical energy, the watts per cubic inch dis-
sipated within the avionics units still remains much the same due to high density packaging tech-
niques utilized. Consequently, the importance of providing avionics cooling is essential to the life
span of the unit.
While each individual unit may or may not require forced air cooling, the combined heat load of
several units operating in a typical avionics location will significantly degrade the reliability of the
avionics if provisions for cooling are not incorporated in the initial installation.
Failure to provide cooling will certainly lead to increased avionics maintenance costs and may void
the warranty.
2.3.2 KNR 634/KNR 634A INSTALLATION
Select a mounting location which will allow one (1) inch of free air space around the top and rear
of the unit. The unit may be rigidly mounted in.any position.
Refer to FIGURE 2-12 KNR 634 INSTALLATION DRAWING or FIGURE 2-13 KNR 634A INSTAL-
LATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions and mark, punch, and drill the mounting holes being
careful not to damage adjacent equipment or cables.
Secure the mounting rack firmly in place with four #6-32 screws (supplied by installer). Slide the
unit into the rack and secure it by tightening the knurled knob located on the front of the rack.
2.3.3 KFS 564/KFS 564A INSTALLATION
Select a mounting location that is easily accessible and clearly visible to the pilot and that will allow
sufficient clearance at the rear of the unit for the connector and cables.
Refer to FIGURE 2-14 KFS 564 INSTALLATION DRAWING or FIGURE 2-15 KFS 564A INSTAL-
LATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions.
Cut and drill the mounting holes.
Install the 6-32 anchor nuts provided in the installation kit.
Install the control unit in the panel and secure it with 6-32 X 5/8 screws.
2.3.4 NAV ANTENNA INSTALLATION
The NAV antenna should be located to provide optimum signal reception from all directions and
should be removed as far as possible from VHF COMM antennas.
Optimum location for a particular aircraft type is usually available from the aircraft manufacturer.
Avoid running the NAV antenna cable near transmitter antenna cables, particularly VHF COMM
antenna cables.
2.3.5 KA 22 GLIDESLOPE ANTENNA INSTALLATION
The KA 22 should be mounted in a position that ensures that the antenna will not be shadowed
during approaches. The KA 22 may be mounted within a radome.
Refer to FIGURE 2-19 KA 22 INSTALLATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions.
2.3.6 KA 26 MARKER BEACON ANTENNA INSTALLATION
The KA 26 should be mounted on the bottom of the aircraft parallel to the centerline of the aircraft
and as close to the centerline as possible. Avoid mounting the antenna near high power transmit-
ter antennas (DME, Transponder, COMM, etc.).
Refer to FIGURE 2-18 KA 26 INSTALLATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions.
2.3.7 KA 35A MARKER LIGHT INSTALLATION
The KA 35A should be mounted in a position that is clearly visible to the pilot. Refer to FIGURE
2-16 KA 35A INSTALLATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions and FIGURE 2-5 KA 35A
CONNECTOR for pinout information.
2.3.8 KA 40 MARKER LIGHT INSTALLATION
The KA 40 should be mounted in a position that is clearly visible to the pilot. Refer to FIGURE 2-
17 KA 40 INSTALLATION DRAWING for mounting dimensions. Pinout information is shown in
FIGURE 2-6 KA 40 CONNECTOR.
2.3.9 PHOTOCELL INSTALLATION
The photocell should be mounted on the instrument panel in a location that receives an average
amount of ambient light. The photocell should be recessed.125 ± .025 inches into the aircraft pan-
el. Photocell and socket leads should be adequately insulated or enclosed in a protective enclo-
sure to prevent shorting to ground or to each other.
Refer to FIGURE 2-10 PHOTOCELL AND SOCKET INSTALLATION for mounting dimensions.
2.3.10 MARKER RECEIVER SENSITIVITY/TEST SWITCH INSTALLATION
Plan a location on the instrument panel that is clearly visible and within easy access to the pilot.
The switch function and positions (HI SENS/LO SENS/TEST) should be clearly labeled on the
panel. A protective enclosure should be fabricated to prevent inadvertent switch actuation.
CAUTION:
USE GOOD QUALITY STRANDED WIRE
WITH 600 VOLT INSULATION THAT WILL
NOT SUPPORT A FLAME.
2.3.12 KFS 564A CONTROL PIN FUNCTIONS
2.3.12.1 Control Disable (P5642-8)
The front panel and remote controls are nonfunctional when this pin is grounded. The receiver re-
mains tuned to the frequency in use prior to disabling.
2.3.12.2 Remote Channel (P5642-5)
Grounding this pin places the unit in channel mode and increments the channel number from the
previous channel number used.
2.3.12.3 Program Secure (P5641-25)
After a channel has been Program Secured, that channel may not be reprogrammed until it has
been Un-program Secured. The process involves grounding and ungrounding Pin 1 of P5641.
While Program or Un-program Securing any channels in a tandem installation, the following pro-
cedure must be followed to ensure proper operation.
B. Refer to Section V of the KFS 564A Maintenance Manual for the Program Secure
procedure.
C. Before replacing the unit in the aircraft, verify that the remaining unit is in the Fre-
quency Mode.
E. Operating only the newly Program Secured unit, place the units in the Program
Mode by holding the CHAN button for two seconds.
Do not remove power for at least three (3) seconds. The unit that remained in the aircraft will now
also be Program Secured.
2.3.12.4 Master/Slave (P5642-3)
Grounding this pin designates the control unit as the Master unit in a tandem installation. An open
pin designates the Slave unit.
2.3.12.5 Automatic Dimmer Override (P5641-23)
Grounding this pin disables the automatic display dimmer. Display brightness will go to maximum
intensity.
2.3.12.6 Civil/Military Mode Select (P5642-7)
Grounding this pin enables Military Mode operation. The control unit will operate in the Civil Mode
with this pin open.
Note: Tools and positioners from ASTRO and DANIELS are interchangeable.
Rotating the tuning knobs will change the channel number from 1 through 9. Press
the Transfer button momentarily and verify that the channel numbers stops flashing
and the frequency flashes.
Verify that rotating the tuning knobs will increment or decrement the channel fre-
quency.
Pressing the Transfer button again will cause the frequency to stop flashing (if val-
id) and the channel number to flash again.
Pressing the CHAN button will return the control unit(s) to the mode from which the
Program mode was entered if the CIVIL/MIL pin on the rear connector is grounded
(MIL Mode).
If the CIVIL/MIL pin on the rear connector is left open (CIVIL Mode), the control unit
will always return to the Frequency Mode.
NOTE:
If no action is taken for 20 seconds while in the pro-
gram mode, the unit(s) will return to their previous
mode.
G. Verify that when turning the unit(s) on while the Transfer button is depressed that
the unit comes up in Active Entry and displays 110.00 MHz.
SECTION III
OPERATION
3.1 KFS 564 OPERATION
Rotate the VOL control clockwise from the OFF position to turn the system on. Clockwise rotation
beyond the OFF position will increase the NAV audio volume. Counterclockwise rotation will de-
crease the audio volume.
Frequency selection is accomplished with the INC/DEC knobs. Clockwise rotation will increment
the frequency and counterclockwise rotation will decrement the frequency. The larger knob will
change the MHz portion of the display. At one band edge (108 or 117 MHz) the next 1 MHz step
will cause the display to wrap around to the opposite band edge. The smaller knob will change the
kHz portion of the display and will wrap around at the band edges (00 and 95) in the same manner.
With the smaller INC/DEC knob pushed in, frequency selection is accomplished by entering a fre-
quency into the Standby display and then transferring that frequency into the Active window by
pressing the Transfer button. Frequency selection may be accomplished directly in the Active win-
dow by pulling the smaller INC/DEC knob out, waiting until the Standby display shows dashes (--
-)and then entering the desired frequency. The receiver will remain tuned to the frequency dis-
played in the Active window at all times.
The larger INC/DEC knob will increment or decrement the MHz portion of the display in 1 MHz
steps with rollover at each band edge (108 or 117 MHz). The smaller INC/DEC knob will increment
or decrement the kHz portion of the display in 50 kHz steps. Rollover to the opposite band edge
occurs at 00 or 95.
While in the Standby Entry mode, the receiver remains tuned to the frequency displayed in the
Active window at all times.
3.2.2.2 Active Entry
The Active Entry mode is entered from the Standby Entry mode by pressing and holding the
Transfer button for more than 2 seconds. The frequency displayed in the Active window may then
be changed with the INC/DEC knobs in the same manner as described above. The receiver will
be tuned to the frequency displayed in the Active window at all times.
Momentarily pressing the Transfer button will return the control unit to the Standby Entry mode.
The Standby frequency displayed prior to entering the Active Entry mode remains unchanged.
3.2.3 CIVIL OPERATION (J5642-7 OPEN)
3.2.3.1 Channel Mode
Momentarily pressing the CHAN button while in the Frequency mode will place the unit in the
Channel mode.
The receiver will remain tuned to the last Active frequency displayed before entering the Channel
mode. The last Channel number used will be displayed, unless no channels have been pro-
grammed, in which case the unit defaults to Channel 1 and dashes are displayed in the Standby
window.
Turning either INC/DEC knob will increment or decrement the Channel number. The unit will only
increment or decrement to channels that have been programmed. The frequency associated with
each Channel number will be displayed in the Standby window.
If there is no knob activity for 5 seconds the unit will return to the Frequency mode and the Channel
frequency will be displayed in the Standby window.
Pressing the CHAN button will return the unit to the Frequency mode and the status of the Fre-
quency mode prior to entering the Channel mode will remain the same.
When in the Channel mode, pressing the Transfer button will return the unit to the Frequency
mode. The Channel frequency will become the new Active frequency and the last frequency used
will be the new Standby frequency.
If the unit was in the Active Entry mode prior to entering the Channel mode, pressing the Transfer
button or allowing the unit to time out will bring the.unit back to the Standby Entry mode.
3.2.3.2 Program Mode
The Program mode is entered by pressing and holding the CHAN button for more than 2 seconds.
The receiver remains tuned to the last Active frequency displayed before entering the Program
mode and the last Channel number used will be displayed. The Channel number will be flashing
and may be changed with the INC/DEC knobs.
Pressing the Transfer button will cause the Channel number to stop flashing and cause the fre-
quency to flash (unless the channel is Program Secured).
The frequency may then be changed with the INC/DEC knobs in the same manner as described
above with the exception that the first step past any band edge will cause dashes to be displayed.
Any Channel with dashes displayed will be deprogrammed.
Pressing the Transfer button will cause the frequency displayed to stop flashing and the Channel
number will flash.
The unit will revert to the Frequency mode if no knob activity takes place for 20 seconds.
The unit may also be returned to the Frequency mode from the Program mode by momentarily
pressing the CHAN button. On re-entering the Frequency mode the Active and Standby frequen-
cies displayed will be the last frequencies displayed prior to entering the Program mode.
3.2.4 MILITARY OPERATION (J5642-7 GROUNDED)
3.2.4.1 Channel Mode
Momentarily pressing the CHAN button while in the Frequency mode places the unit in the Chan-
nel mode. The last channel used will be the Channel number displayed. The receiver will be tuned
to the frequency displayed in the Standby window.
If no channels are programmed into the unit, the unit will display "CH 1" and dashes in the Standby
display for 5 seconds and will tune the receiver to the last Active frequency. The unit will only chan-
nel to channel numbers with a frequency programmed into them.
NOTE:
Channel mode does not time out as in civil operation.
Momentarily pressing the CHAN button will return the unit to the Frequency mode and the status
will remain as it was prior to entering the Channel mode.
Holding the Transfer button depressed for more than 2 seconds while in the Channel mode will
cause the unit to enter the Active Tune mode.
3.2.4.2 Program Mode
Pressing and holding the CHAN button for longer than two (2) seconds will cause the unit to enter
the Program mode. The last channel in use will be displayed and will be flashing. The receiver will
be tuned to the last Active frequency. While flashing, the Channel number may be changed with
the INC/DEC switches.
Pressing the Transfer button will cause the Channel number to stop flashing and the frequency in
the Standby window will flash. The frequency may then be changed with the INC/DEC knobs in
the manner described above.
The first step past either band edge will cause dashes to be displayed in the Standby window.
Any Channel with dashes entered will be deprogrammed. A deprogrammed Channel will display
dashes in the Standby window when recalled, in which case the receiver will be tuned to the last
valid Active frequency.
Pressing the CHAN button will return the unit to the mode in use prior to entering the Program
mode. The receiver will be tuned to the frequency displayed in the Active window if it returns to
the Frequency mode or will be tuned to the frequency displayed in the Standby window if it returns
to the Channel mode.
3.2.5 DEFAULT MODE
Turning the unit on while holding the Transfer button down will bring the unit on in the Active Entry
mode and display 110.00 as the Active frequency.
3.2.6 REMOTE TRANSFER
The Remote Transfer operates identically to the front panel Transfer button with the exception that
holding the Remote Transfer button for 2 seconds does not cause the unit to enter the Active Entry
mode.
NOTE 1:
Remove this nylon screw to access a switch which
enables or disables the GlidesIope pointer declutter
on VOR channels. The switch may be accessed us-
ing a small device such a flexible tuning tool. If no
such tool is available, it may also be accessed by re-
moving the cover.
