The MVP Display unit measures 5.55" wide by 5.15" high by 2.4" deep and is designed to be mounted
from behind the aircraft instrument panel. The MVP could be mounted on to a sub-panel which would
then be mounted to the aircraft instrument panel from the front.
The 25-pin D-sub connector on the back of the MVP Display is used to interface the MVP to the EDC-
33P, Power & Ground, GPS, Master Warning and Caution Lights, Audio Panel, etc.

The EDC-33T (Engine Data Converter) converts all of the engine and aircraft system signals into serial
data. This data is transmitted to the MVP display via two wires (RS422). If a second EDC is installed,
one of the data lines wil be connected to a RS232 channel on the MVP. The EDC measures 4.5" long
by 3.5" wide by 2.2" high and is to be mounted on the cockpit side of the firewall or in an equipment
bay. The EDC reduces the wire bundle to the instrument panel by over 100 wires. There are three 37-
pin D-sub connectors that interface the EDC to the various probes, transducers and modules.
The EDC’s Temperature and Fuel Level inputs can be used to monitor voltage outputs from almost any
transducer. In this way almost any function can be displayed on the MVP.
Up to two EDC’s can be connected to the MVP at a one time. This significantly increases the total
number of functions that can be displayed on the MVP.
