GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This manual contains information relative to the physical, mechanical, and electrical 
characteristics of the Honeywell KTR 2280 Multi-Mode Digital Radio (MMDR).  Installation 
and check out procedures are also included.  Information relative to the maintenance, 
alignment, and procurement of the replacement parts may be found in the KTR 2280 
Maintenance/Overhaul Manual, P/N 006-15654-XXXX.  The only current KTR 2280 
installation option is as a part of the APEX system.  For additional information relating to 
the APEX system, refer to the APEX System Manual 006-10667-XXXX or applicable 
Engineering Bulletin (EB). This manual, the Apex System Manual, and the applicable EB 
define the recommended installation for the KTR 2280.  Final design of the installation and 
airworthiness approval is incumbent upon the installer and their respective certification 
authority.
1.2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The KTR 2280 APEX MMDR Transceiver is a blind, panel mount integrated transceiver 
containing one transmitter and four receivers.  The KTR 2280 operates at a nominal 
voltage of 27.5 VDC. The KTR 2280 is controlled by APEX LRU's which send control 
information to the KTR 2280 via ARINC 429. Some outputs from the KTR 2280 are in 
digital formats and sent to other LRU's via ARINC 429. Other outputs are more traditional 
analog outputs.
The transmitter is a 2280 channel, 16 Watt COM transmitter capable of 8.33 kHz channel 
spacing operation. The four receivers include one 200 channel NAV receiver, one 40 
channel glideslope receiver, one COM receiver, and one ADF receiver. The COM 
receivers have 2280 channels and are capable of 8.33 kHz channel spacing. The ADF 
tunes frequencies from 190 kHz to 1799 kHz and 2180 kHz to 2189 kHz.  The KTR 2280 
has no user interface and is completely controlled by other components of the APEX 
system via ARINC 429. 
The KTR 2280 contains BIT (Built In Test) equipment so that the operational health of the 
unit is constantly monitored.  When a critical fault is detected, the unit notifies the APEX 
system.  The unit stores detected failures in non-volatile memory for later review.  The unit 
also has a temperature sensor and a timer so that faults can be time stamped and 
temperature data can be collected and stored.
