INTERCOM

The two Audio Panels include an six-position intercom system (ICS) for the pilot, copilot and up to four

passengers. The intercom provides pilot and copilot isolation from the passengers and aircraft radios.

Pressing an ICS key on either Audio Panel selects and deselects the same key on both Audio Panels. Either

the pilot or copilot may select or deselect the intercom.

Table 4-1 ICS Isolation Modes

Pilot isolation is selected when the PILOT Annunciator is illuminated. During Pilot isolation, the pilot can

hear the selected radios and aural alerts and warnings. The copilot and passengers can communicate with each
other. The copilot is isolated from aural alerts and warnings.

Copilot isolation is selected when the COPLT Annunciator is illuminated. The copilot is isolated from the

selected radios, aural alerts and warnings, and everyone else. The pilot and passengers can hear the selected
radios, aural alerts, and communicate with each other.

When both the PILOT and COPLT Annunciators are illuminated, the pilot and copilot can hear the selected

radios, aural alerts, and communicate with each other. The passengers are isolated from the pilot and copilot
but can communicate with each other.

When both the PILOT and COPLT Annunciators are extinguished, everyone hears the selected radios, aural

alerts, and is able to communicate with everyone else.
