Hi Folks,I'm a first time airplane builder and working on a GlaStar. I'm at the point of instrument panel and electrical system installation. I'm planning around the Z13/8 architecture and working thru the one system per page designs.
I had an avionics shop wire up some of the panel wiring harness for a number of instruments (GNS430W, GRT EFIS, SL30, Trig Transponder TT22/TC20, and PS8000BT audio panel).
My newbie question is around how best to validate the wiring work. I have a multimeter tester and started to do continuity checks on all the D-Sub pin assignments....then I thought I'd ask here what's best/disciplined practice to use when checking out a pre-wired harness? Is there a D-Sub pin test lead tool that make it easier / faster to check each pin assignment?
I've setup a spreadsheet to capture all the connector type, pin numbers, use / function, FROM/TO information that I will then use to feed my schematic diagrams later.
Thanks for any tips!
