The pilot can select either music source from the Music distribution menu.
3.10 Bluetooth® connection
The PMA450 has a Bluetooth interface. The audio panel is always “discoverable,” so you just need to
search for the PMA450 from your Bluetooth-equipped phone or music source. The default access code is
0000, if needed. Once the PMA450 has been “paired” with your Bluetooth device, the TEL distribution will
act as described in §
3.11.1 .
When Bluetooth is active, a Bluetooth icon and the battery status of the device is displayed in the upper
right corner of the home display.
3.10.1 Pairing and unpairing Bluetooth devices
The PMA450 can be paired with up to eight individual devices. When that number is exceeded, the
PMA450 will randomly drop a device to allow the new device to be added.
Hint, if your old phone is not recognized by the PMA450, you may need to reset from the Bluetooth menu.
3.10.1.1 Paring separate music and telephone devices
It is possible to use a different music source (iPad, iPod with Bluetooth adapter, Bluetooth enabled laptop,
etc) and telephone. However, only one music source can be streaming at a time.
3.11 Bluetooth® Telephone Mode
The PMA450 serves as a full duplex interface for telephone systems such as portable cellular phones with
Bluetooth connectivity.
Warning:
United States FCC Regulations contained in 47 CFR § 22.925 currently contain prohibition on airborne
operation of cellular telephones. “Cellular telephones installed in or carried aboard airplanes, balloons or
any other type of aircraft must not be operated while such aircraft are airborne (not touching the ground).
When any aircraft leaves the ground, all cellular telephones on board that aircraft must be turned off.”
In ALL intercom mode, all crew and passengers will be heard on the phone when they speak. All will hear
selected audio. Com audio is automatically heard in the headsets.
In CREW mode, the pilot and copilot are connected to the telephone. The pilot and copilot will have
transmit capability on the other selected transceiver Com 1 or 2, simply by using their respective PTT
switch.
