KDM 706A remote solid-state digital distance measuring equipment unit 066-1066-23

066-1066-23 is the exact Part Number for this BendixKing / Honeywell KDM 706A remote solid-state digital distance measuring equipment unit. The unit receives and processes compatible DME interrogation replies to support cockpit distance presentation through approved indicators. This card is tied to the photographed configuration and complete suffix, rather than serving as a generic listing for every KDM 706A version or a visually similar member of the same family.

The source record identifies the exact Part Number 066-1066-23, serviceable condition, photographed serial number 12847 and EASA/FAA dual release. It also identifies this version as having a harmonic filter for use in Europe. No specifications from other KDM 706A suffixes are transferred to this card. The identification information is important because voltage, lighting, software, hardware options, certification and connector configuration can differ across related versions. The complete Part Number and the approved technical record must be checked together before purchase or installation.

Operational role and system function

The KDM 706A is a remote-mounted DME unit rather than a self-contained cockpit display. The source listing states that this version is designed to operate with KDI 572 or KDI 574 master DME indicators and a KDI 573 slave indicator. The connected indicator provides the crew-facing presentation while the remote unit performs the DME function within the approved installation. In service, the unit depends on the integrity of its associated sensors, antennas, transceivers, control panels, displays, data buses, wiring, power and grounding. A reported fault at the unit can therefore originate elsewhere in the connected chain, and troubleshooting should follow the approved aircraft and equipment procedures.

The practical role of KDM 706A is to perform its defined function while exchanging required signals with compatible equipment. It cannot replace missing system components and should not be evaluated as an isolated consumer device. Controls or connectors visible in photographs do not prove that every possible function is enabled in a particular aircraft installation.

Installation and connected equipment

The documented system relationship includes a KDI 572 or KDI 574 master DME indicator and an optional KDI 573 slave indicator. A complete approved installation also requires the applicable DME antenna, coaxial cable, aircraft wiring, power protection, rack, connectors and any navigation-system interfaces defined by the aircraft and BendixKing installation data. A rack, backplate, connector kit, antenna, wiring, cooling hardware or other accessories are not assumed to be included unless they are expressly listed in the quotation. Similar panel dimensions or family names do not prove electrical or approval compatibility.

Before installation, technicians should compare 066-1066-23 with the removed unit, aircraft equipment list, wiring diagrams, installation manual and modification records. Panel space, mounting depth, connector keying, pin allocation, circuit protection, lighting, ventilation, data format and configuration settings all require confirmation. Any substitution must be supported by approved data.

Configuration checks for 066-1066-23

The suffix in 066-1066-23 is part of the product identity. Software level, modification status, database requirements, embedded options, voltage and certification can affect compatibility even when two units look alike. These checks are especially important in aircraft that have accumulated supplemental approvals, avionics upgrades or wiring changes over time.

Incoming inspection should verify the manufacturer plate, housing, connectors, locking features, controls, display or indicator face, fasteners and evidence of unauthorized modification. Functional testing should use the approved bench procedure for the exact model and suffix. Installation and return to service remain the responsibility of appropriately authorized personnel.

Serviceable condition, ordering and support

This 066-1066-23 KDM 706A is offered in Serviceable condition from partner stock with a six-month warranty. Partner stock should be reconfirmed at quotation because allocation can change. The available serial number, current test status and release documentation for the specific unit are confirmed before order acceptance.

For an inquiry, specify Part Number 066-1066-23, model KDM 706A, required quantity, destination and documentation requirements. Including the aircraft type and removed-unit Part Number helps prevent configuration errors. Related avionics can be reviewed in the Garmin / BendixKing / Honeywell / Collins category. Products shown there are related catalog positions, not interchangeable replacements unless approved technical data explicitly says so.
