PRE-INSTALLATION STEPS AND PROCEDURES
a. Read the technical bulletin in its entirety prior to performing any
designated tasks.
b. Ensure that the expendable/durable items identified in Table 2-2, and the
tools and TMDE, if required, identified in Table 2-3 are available for use.
c . Remove the AN/VIC-1 or -2 system, if present, in preparation of installing
the VIS. Refer to Table 2-1 to determine, what, if any, AN/VIC-1 or -2
components need to be retained.
d . Unpack VIS equipment/components and conduct a complete physical
inventory of the items using Table 2-4 as a checklist. Be sure to inspect
packaging for evidence of damage and examine each item for damage. If
any discrepancies are noted refer to paragraphs 1.4 and 1.5 for the
appropriate maintenance documentation to fill out.
e . Examine the decal provided with the kit. Identify the number of FFCSs and
RIT's. Mark the FFCSs and RITs numerically to match the decal (a piece
of tape is recommended).
f.
For each FFCS, set the Crew Station Address Switch to the number
marked on it. For each RIT, set the Radio Selection Switch to the
appropriate radio setting. Refer to Section III for the appropriate
procedures to accomplish these tasks.
g. You are now ready to install the VIS into the vehicle/platform.
