Carbon fiber mounting brackets 

Mounting the brows

To be able to mount the brows, we have included carbon fiber mounting brackets. Here is how we suggest to use them, though you can orient them the way you like to suit your cockpit or preference.
Be sure to use bolt (A8) to fasten the mounting bracket (A3) to a brow (A1). I roto i tenei example we are mounting the brows and control box to the uprights of a cockpit. Of course you are free to mount them how and where you see fit.
Since the brows are daisy-chained together, the first brow unit in the chain is considered the ‘first’ one, defaults to being the left brow. Therefore it makes sense to mount the control box on the left side of the cockpit. Of course, you are free to install these parts how you like to.
All bolts (A7) and slot-nuts (A9) shown are of the same size/type.

Connecting the brows

As mentioned on the previous page, the brows are daisy chained to each other and to the control box. Provided are two brow cables, a short (A6) and long (A5) one, next to the USB cable (A4). To wire the control box to the first brow in the chain, we recommend using the short cable (A6). The long cable (A5) will connect the two brow modules together.
Attention! Be mindful of the way you connect the modules to each other, always go from an ‘OUT’ to an ‘IN’. For the second brow module, ‘OUT’ can be used to connect a third and fourth module. A maximum of four modules in total is supported.
Both brow modules are identical, it doesn’t matter in which order you connect them to each other or to the control box.

LEDS (A)
All of these options are identical to the LEDs device page for other devices, although there is one additional option which is unique for the Brows and DDU5 V2. The Brows V2 can be daisy chained together, allowing up to 4 brow modules to be connected (1) in total. Please be aware your profiles need to be custom made to suit your needs here. Our default profile is made for the base pair as packaged.
