1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Introduction
The information contained within this Installation Manual describes the features, functions,
technical characteristics, components, approval procedures, installation considerations, setup
procedures, checkout procedures and instructions for continued airworthiness for the Sandel
Avionics ST3400H Helicopter Terrain Awareness Warning System. For an explanation of the
operating controls of the ST3400H, refer to the Pilot’s Guide for the ST3400H, Sandel
Avionics P/N 82046-PG.
Sandel Avionics ST3400H HTAWS may be covered by one or more U.S. and foreign patents
and pending patent applications, including U.S. Patent Nos. 6,507,288, 6,489,916, and
6,259,378.
1.2 LIMITATIONS
The following stipulation as presented is required by the Federal Aviation Administration for
articles approved under Technical Standard Order. This statement does not preclude multiple
installation and operational approvals in regard to specific aircraft make, model, or type:
The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance
standards. Those installing this article, on or in a specific type or class of aircraft, must
determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within TSO standards. TSO articles must
have separate approval for installation in an aircraft. The article may be installed only
according to 14 CFR Part 43 or applicable airworthiness requirements.
1.3 Radalt Indicator Replacement

The ST3400H Radalt function is provided to allow the ST3400H to replace an existing Radar
Altitude display. Both the current Radar altitude and the selected Minimums alerting altitude
are displayed in digital format.
If a Radar altimeter is not installed in the helicopter, the Radar Altitude will not be displayed
on the screen. The MINS display will be present and may be used by the pilot as a reference.
1.4 Equipment Description

The Sandel ST3400H is a self-contained HTAWS (Terrain Awareness Warning System)
solution specifically for helicopters that includes an advanced HTAWS computer and an
integrated full-color screen built within a standard 3-inch instrument chassis.
The ST3400H uses Sandel’s patented rear-projection display technology. The projector uses a
miniature active-matrix LCD display that produces a high-resolution image that is rear-
projected directly to the face of the instrument. This technology allows the displayed image to
extend to the edges of the instrument’s bezel. The advantage of this edge-to-edge technology
is that it eliminates the unusable area surrounding conventional LCD and CRT displays. Even
82046-IM-E ST3400H INSTALLATION MANUAL Page 1-1

though the Sandel display is in a 3-inch form factor, its image is near the size of a 4” primary
display, and can remain directly in the pilot’s field-of-view.
It can be used as a direct replacement for a currently installed Radar altimeter indicator. It
includes a MINS setter, MINS discrete output, and a Radalt Test discrete output.
The ST3400H includes built-in warning and caution annunciation. The unit also supports
optional external warning or caution annunciation as well as optional collective mounted
momentary switches to control certain functions such as alert muting and modes.
The ST3400H may be installed in a single or dual installation.
The ST3400H has an internal recorder that automatically records approximately twenty hours
of flight data. This data can be reviewed for content in the event of a system malfunction.
1.4.1 Features
HTAWS is the enhanced terrain warning technology for helicopters that uses GPS position
along with databases of terrain and obstacles to reduce or eliminate CFIT accidents. It is
similar to the Sandel ST3400 fixed-wing TAWS, with feature enhancements specific to
helicopter operations close to the ground.
 Increased vertical accuracy
 Separate obstacle database
 On-screen obstacle display
 3 arc-second terrain data
 Provision for user-defined obstacles and landing zones
The following 5 standard GPWS functional modes (modified for helicopter) are provided for
when equipped with supported Radar altimeter and airdata computer:
 ERD (excessive rate of descent)
 ALAT (altitude loss after takeoff)
 FITNL (flight into terrain when not in landing configuration)
 EDGSD (excessive downward glide slope deviation).
 300 feet and below Voice Callouts
1.4.2 FAA HTAWS Requirement
The ST3400H exceeds the FAA requirements for HTAWS alerting, annunciation, and
display for installation in Part 27 and Part 29 helicopters
1.5 Databases
1.5.1 Coverage area
The internal Terrain and Obstacle databases include terrain, charted man-made obstacles,
airports, and heliports.

The Terrain and Airport databases are provided by geographical area. The coverage area of
the database installed in the ST3400H is shown as part of the sign-on screen after a power
cycle.
Remember, there is no guarantee that every obstacle is charted or that every charted obstacle
is in the terrain data.
1.5.2 Keeping the databases current
Updates to the databases can be obtained from the Sandel web site and loaded into the
equipment using a Windows loader program and a laptop computer. This is done through a
high-speed USB port located on the front right corner. Loading instructions are supplied
along with the applicable database.
The databases can be updated during normal maintenance to the helicopter.

environment into which the ST3400H is to be installed. The environmental category for the
ST3400H should be stipulated on the STC form.

A “Functional Ground Test Procedures/Report” included in section 7 of this manual should be
used as a basis for validating the ST3400H equipment configuration and to verify proper
installation and functional performance. A permanent copy of the STC form must be filed and
maintained by the installing agency. Another copy must be presented to the aircraft owner for
entry into the aircraft maintenance records, as well as a copy forwarded to Sandel Avionics
along with the Warranty Registration Form, to be filed after completion and installation
acceptance.
If any difficulty is experienced with the functionality or operational performance of the
ST3400H, contact Sandel for assistance.

2 INSTALLATION PLANNING
The ST3400H has been designed to ensure maximum interoperability with external avionics.
Contact Sandel with any questions about interfacing to specific avionics equipment not covered
in the installation drawings in this manual.
2.1 General Information

To simplify installation, after signals are wired to the ST3400H pins, on-screen setups are used
in a post-installation procedure. Maintenance menu pages provide a function selection
capability. For most equipment, selections are made by equipment make and model.
Refer to the installation schematics section 0 of this manual, for details on connecting required
components.
2.2 Supported Sensor Configurations

2.2.1 Required Sensors
 GPS position
 Gear (only if the helicopter has retractable gear).
2.2.2 Optional Sensors
 Heading Display: Provides no-track terrain display
 GPS Flight plan Display: displays flight plan line
 Radar Altitude GPWS: Provides callouts;
 Airdata GPWS: improves accuracy of certain modes
 LOC/GS GPWS: adds Glideslope alert
 Collective-Down Switch input for autorotation alert muting
2.2.3 Recommended Optional Sensors
A Heading Sensor is highly recommended; without a heading system no terrain will be

presented on the display during hover operations or on-ground.
Radar Altitude is highly recommended. This not only supplies numerous GPWS alerts, but
provides altitude callouts which provide an additional safety benefit.
2.3 Pre-installation Planning

The installation planning cycle is summarized as follows:
 Compile an equipment list for the helicopter. If the desired equipment is not listed in
the installation manual diagrams, contact Sandel for interoperability
 Review the installation considerations given in the Installation Considerations section

2.4 Post Installation Procedures

Post installation procedures are summarized as follows:
 Prior to power-up, review correct wiring by using industry accepted ohmmeter and
voltage checks. Pay particular attention to presence of +28V on only the correct pins;
0 ohm resistance check on ground pins to airframe ground; and presence of inverter
400Hz (if used) only on the appropriate pins.
 Review any special items particular to the subject helicopter installation.
 Power up the ST3400H in maintenance mode and sequentially access each
maintenance page to select the installed equipment.
 Check proper cooling airflow:
 Allow the unit to operate for 30 minutes.
 Check the internal temperature readout on the appropriate maintenance page for an
approximate temperature rise (approximately 10°C or 18°F over ambient).
 Perform Ground Test procedures.
 Perform Flight Test procedures if required.

3 INTERFACE FUNCTIONS
3.1 Power
The primary power is 28 volt dc on J-2 and is supplied from the aircraft avionics buss through
a circuit breaker. Ground is provided on J-2 and should be attached to an approved airframe
ground.
A 26 volt 400Hz excitation input is available at J-16. It is only used in the case of an XYZ
heading source. If the installation of the ST3400 does not use an XYZ (ARINC407) signal
source, the inverter input is not required and should be grounded.
3.2 GPS/FMS
A GPS position input is required. The port is configurable in the Maintenance Menu pages for
High or Low speed ARINC and RS232. A list of supported labels is listed in section 8.8 .
A separate GPS flight plan input is normally connected but is optional.
In the case where all information is coming from the same 429 source, the single receiver is
fed to both inputs.
Note: In the case of the Garmin GNS series, the position input is connected to the
receiver’s RS232 output, and the Flight plan data is connected to the receiver’s GAMA
ARINC 429 output.
3.3 Heading System

A Heading input is not required. However, without a heading system the terrain display will
be removed at low groundspeeds. When the heading input is present the terrain display
remains on the screen even during hover operations. It is highly recommended.
3.4 Radar Altimeter

The ST3400H has provisions for a Radar Altimeter input. Radar Altimeter input may be from
an ARINC 429 or DC analog sources. The Radar Altimeter input is used to obtain height
above terrain for GPWS alerting and for altitude callouts.
The Radar altimeter always produces a single ‘300’ or ‘100’ mandatory audio callout,
depending on NORM/LOW sensitivity selected by the pilot. Optionally the installer may
enable any or all of the following additional audio callouts:
300’, 200’, 100’, 50’, 40’, 30’, 20’, 10’
These callouts are a great safety feature and their use is encouraged.
When the Radalt is lower than the MINS setting a MINS discrete output is activated and an
audio callout “MINIMUMS” occurs.

When the Radar Altimeter is not configured, the MINS setting is retained on the display for
use as a visual reference by the pilot. The MINS discrete and callout will be disabled.
The MINS setting knob on the front panel has a push button function. This operates the
momentary discrete on J3, RADALT TEST.
3.5 Glideslope
This input provides the GPWS mode-5 glideslope alert. ARINC 429 or low level analog
inputs for Glideslope deviation, Glideslope flag status, and Localizer and Localizer Flag are
provided.
An additional discrete input is available for Back Course from the HSI, which acts to disable
Glideslope alerting while on a Back Course approach.
3.6 Air Data Computer

Airdata input is recommended. ARINC 429 airdata is supported as well as analog pressure
altitude. Use of analog pressure altitude requires ST3400H with MOD-1 installed per SIL
3400H-01.
3.7 Traffic
The ST3400H supports Traffic input via single ARINC 429 input. Traffic data is overlaid on
terrain.
Some traffic processors require remote switches. See Traffic interface drawings in this manual
for these requirements.
3.8 Landing Gear

The ST3400 has provisions on J-1 for Gear Down input discrete to indicate that the gear is in
the “DOWN” position for helicopters equipped with retractable landing gear.
The configuration is performed in the Maintenance Menu pages given in the Setup Procedures
section of this manual. If the system is installed in a helicopter without retractable landing
gear, select “NONE” on maintenance page configuration item.
3.9 External Switches and Annunciators

All external switches and annunciators are optional.
External switches are momentary contact OPEN/GND, normally open.
External annunciators, if used, must be properly labeled and colored.
Discrete outputs are OPEN/GND and capable of sinking a maximum of 250milliamps to
ground when active. They can drive incandescent lamps and/or relays. Dimming of external
annunciators is accomplished by sourcing the annunciators from the helicopter day/night bus.

CONTROL OUTPUTS
Signal Description
RADALT TEST GND when the RA TEST pushbutton has been activated
TCAS INH GND when either CAUT or WARN are active. Used to mute the TCAS
audio.
3.10 NVIS Control

The NVIS CTRL discrete is an OPEN/GND input which controls the NVIS mode and is
intended to be connected to a sustained toggle or sustained pushbutton switch. In the default

configuration GND=NVIS ON and OPEN=NVIS OFF. In this configuration a wire break to
the switch would result in NVIS OFF.
The input configuration can be changed by the installer in the SYSTEM maintenance page to
reverse the logic so that GND=NVIS OFF and OPEN=NVIS ON. In this configuration a wire
break to the switch would result in NVIS ON.
3.11 Audio Output

The audio output produces all advisories and alerts which utilize audio.
Two types of outputs are provided, a speaker out put and headphone output. The outputs are
located on J3 and connection to at least one of these outputs is required.
The headphone output, if used, must connect to the un-switched input of the helicopter audio
system. This output is selectable to a nominal level of 25mw or 150mw output by strapping
jumpers on J3. If no jumper is installed the headphone output is disabled.
The speaker output, if used, must be directly connected to a dedicated 4 or 8 ohm cockpit
speaker.
A volume level trim adjustment which affects both outputs simultaneously is present on the
AUDIO maintenance page.
3.12 Uploading Equipment

A USB interface is available on the front of the ST3400H to upload system software, terrain
data, obstacle data, airport data, and configuration data into memory and to download
configuration data from memory.
Data is loaded from a PC or laptop computer with Microsoft Windows 98 (or later) operating
system software to the ST3400H. Drivers, the loader program, and loading instructions are
supplied with the applicable software or data.
3.13 Display Dimming

The ST3400H screen dimmer is controlled from the front panel knob using the PULL position.
External annunciator dimming may be accomplished using the existing aircraft day/night buss
by connecting the high-side of the annunciator lamps day/night buss.

4 INSTALLATION
The ST3400H should be installed in accordance with standards established by the customer’s
installing agency, and existing conditions as to unit location and type of installation.
4.1 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 made, save the
shipping container to substantiate the claim. The claim should be promptly filed with the
carrier. 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.
4.2 Cooling Considerations

The ST3400H contains its own ventilation fan for internal component cooling and does not
require a forced air cooling system. However, it is important that the perforated area at the
four corners (air intakes) be kept clear of any objects which would restrict the inflow of air at
cabin ambient temperature.
Cooling should be verified in the post-installation checkout by monitoring the temperature on
the POWER maintenance page. For additional cooling or special requirements, air from an
external avionics blower may be directed near the corner air inlets.
In helicopter installations, it may be desirable to introduce a small amount of cooled (air
conditioner) air into the avionics bay if it is completely sealed. In these installations it is not
uncommon for the internal ambient temperature of the avionics bay to exceed the ratings of the
equipment if cooling air is not supplied.
4.3 Mechanical Installation Considerations

4.3.1 Instrument Location in the Cockpit
The Sandel ST3400H is a direct replacement for a currently installed 3 ATI Radar altimeter
indicator. Installation should conform to customer requirements and airworthiness standards
affecting the location and type of installation.
4.3.2 Human Factors
Unit must be located to provide convenient operation and to prevent confusion and
inadvertent operation. Unit must be located and arranged with respect to the pilot’s seats so
that there is full and unrestricted movement of each control without interference from the
cockpit structure or the pilot’s clothing when pilots 5’-2” to 6’-0” in height are seated.
The minimum flight crew must be established so that it is sufficient for safe operation,
considering:
 The workload on individual crewmembers.

 The accessibility and ease of operation of necessary controls by the appropriate
crewmember.
4.3.3 Assembly and Mounting Instructions
Refer to the ST3400H Installation Diagrams for specific assembly and mounting instructions
and appropriate notes.

4.4 Electrical Installation Considerations
The installing agency fabricates and supplies all wiring harnesses. Refer to the ST3400H
Interconnect Wiring Diagrams for detailed wiring information and appropriate notes.
 Refer to the Functional Pinout Descriptions for explanations of pin functions.
 The length and routing of wires must be carefully planned before starting the
installation.
 Avoid sharp bends in the harness.
 Do not locate the harness near aircraft controls.
 Observe all recommended wire sizes and types and subscribe to appropriate FAR Parts
23, 25, 27, and 29, as well as AC 43.13-1(B) and –2(A).
 MIL-C27500 shielded wire and MIL-W-22759 single conductor wire is recommended.
The use of ferrules or grounding blocks for signal ground and digital ground returns is
satisfactory; however, each ground return must be electrically separated.
 In order to ensure optimum performance, the ST3400H and associated wiring must be
kept a minimum of three feet from high noise sources and not routed with cables from
high power sources.
 Prior to installation, verify proper wiring by completing a point-to-point continuity
check of the wiring harness.
 Use the Functional Pinout Descriptions to determine installation requirements.
Ground Bonding. In order to assure installation characteristics match the DO-160 RF and
Lightning test conditions, ensure that two ground wires of at least the recommended size are
installed in accordance with the installation drawings and these wires are connected to a
bonded aircraft ground.
Power Wiring. To assure that the ST3400H will operate properly down to its rated minimum
input voltage, ensure that two power wires of at least the recommended size are connected in
accordance with the installation drawings.

Notes:
1. At +28Vdc, nominal current is 1.25Adc +/- 10%, 1 minute after start up.
2. Power On Load = 60.4K. For Vert/Lat Deviation there may need to be a 1K load somewhere else in the
system to meet the receiver load requirements. Check installation instructions for the interfaced receiver.
3. Outputs are protected against shorts to ground. Shorts to power supply may cause damage to components.

4. Discrete inputs actively pulled to 27.5v through 30k ohms when selected ‘active low’ or actively pulled to
0v through 30k ohms when selected ‘active high’ in the maintenance pages. This ensures the input is in the
‘inactive’ state if an external connection fails. If interfacing to discrete signals which do not supply a
“hard” 0Vdc/27.5Vdc transition, any input network may be used that ensures that the discrete input pin is
not within 1.0v from its nominal threshold shown in the table either in the active or inactive state.
5. All discrete outputs sink 50ua current when off.
5 SETUP PROCEDURES
5.1 General
Setup procedures for the ST3400H are described along with the Maintenance menu below. The

The Radalt page selects the configuration of Radar altimeter input. If no Radar altimeter is
installed set configuration of RALT to NONE.
Radar altimeters are selected by equipment type, i.e. ALT55 for Collins ALT55 altimeter, etc.
Once the equipment is selected, the Radar altitude can be read from the data VALUE line to
check for correct operation.
For analog inputs, a corresponding VALID input is present. Ensure that this item is VALID
during normal operation and INVALID during TEST of the RA or when the RA is powered
off.

11 INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS
Normal maintenance activities performed on the ST3400H should follow standard industry
practices. Re-programming the Configuration Module and updating the Databases, are
addressed in specific sections of this installation manual.
11.1 Periodic Maintenance

The ST3400H is designed to detect internal failures. A thorough self-test is executed
automatically upon application of power to the unit, and Built-In-Test (BIT) is continuously
executed. Detected errors are indicated on the equipment via failure messages and
maintenance is on-condition. Operation of the ST3400H is not permitted unless an inspection
as described in this section has been completed within the preceding 12 calendar months.
Conduct a visual inspection on the ST3400H and its wire harness to insure installation
integrity:
 Inspect the unit for security of attachment.
 Inspect buttons for legibility.
 Inspect condition of wiring, routing and attachment/clamping.
 Inspect knob operation.
 Inspect front panel and clean as necessary
11.2 Cleaning the Front Panel

The front bezel, keypad, and display can be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth dampened with
“Edmund Scientific TECH SPEC Lens Cleaner” or equivalent. Care should be taken to avoid
scratching the surface of the display.
11.3 Display Light Source

The display light source is rated by the manufacturer as having a usable life of 80,000 hours.
This life may be more or less than the rated time depending on the operating conditions of the
ST3400H. Over time, the light source may dim and the display may not perform as well in
direct sunlight conditions. The user must determine by observation when the display
brightness is not suitable for its intended use. Contact the Sandel Customer Service if the light
source requires service.
11.4 Trouble Shooting Information

If the ST3400H fails to properly operate, consult a local authorized Sandel dealer for repair.
The ST3400H does not contain any user serviceable components.
11.5 Removal and Replacement

If the ST3400H is removed for repair and reinstalled, or removed and replaced with a different
ST3400H, follow Post Installation Configuration and Checkout Procedures contained in the
manual.

If any work has been done on the aircraft that could affect the system wiring or interconnected
equipment, verify the ST3400H operates properly, follow the Post Installation Configuration
and Checkout Procedures contained in this manual.
To remove the ST3400H from the mounting clamp, use a standard #2 Philips screwdriver to
loosen the clamping screws until the ST3400H can be freely pulled from the panel.
The ST3400H is installed by connecting the three (3) cable harnesses and then sliding it
straight in the clamping mechanism until the front bezel meets the aircraft instrument panel.
Tighten all four (4) clamp screws.
11.6 Database Updates

Database updates are not required. Information regarding new database releases and the
content details of the databases may be obtained by visiting the Sandel website (
www.sandel.com ). Database updates may be ordered on-line. It is up to the ST3400H
customer to determine if a specific database is applicable to their operations.
11.7 Software Updates

Software updates are released via a Service Information Letter (SIL) or a Service Bulletin
(SB). The SIL or SB will contain links to the software and the related software installation
files and instructions necessary to perform the update. Software updates must be performed by
a Sandel authorized dealer or repair station.
It is the user/owners responsibility to periodically check for SIL’s and or SB’s relating to the
ST3400H. SIL’s and SB’s can be found at: www.sandel.com under “Support”.

NOTE: Use caution in specifying, configuring, and testing analog radar altimeters. Arinc 552 may produce the same readings as other configuations below 480' and
different readings above 480'. Therefore, if configuration is mis-set a simple ground-test is not a complete test of all altitudes. If any question exists about the
suitability of an installation, perform a flight test in VFR conditions and view the RA altitude readout on the ST3400 RA Maintenance page to verify the ST3400 data
matches the pilot's radar altitude indicator through the entire usable range of 0-2000' or 0-2500'.
