Bluetooth stream. Music 1 input can be either on the front jack, or the Music
1 input at the rear connector (Pins 23 and 24, J2). Music 2 is wired into the
rear connector, only (Pins 26 and 27, J2)
The volume of the function selection annunciations and recorder playback
can be adjusted through a hole on the top of the unit marked “ANN VOL.”
“Intercom” Function
Function Intercom controls the distribution of aircraft radio and passenger
intercom. In the “Standard intercom function” mode, aircraft
radios are distributed to all, when the intercom is in the ALL
mode. In CREW mode, only the pilot and copilot positions will
hear aircraft radios.
When in “Alternate Intercom Function,” the passengers will
NEVER hear aircraft radios, even in the ALL mode. In addition, when in the
ALL intercom mode, passengers will be able to converse with the crew,
unless the aircraft radio becomes active, when the intercom audio from the
passengers to the pilot and copilot is stopped, so the crew can focus on the
radio. Passengers will always be able to talk to each other.
To activate this function hold the COM 3 XMT button until the audio an-
nounces “Alternate Intercom Function,” when activated, and “Standard In-
tercom Function” when deactivated.” The alternate intercom mode is an-
nounced at power up, unless the power on announcement has been defeated.
“Monitor” Function
This function turns the Monitor mode on and off.
When the Monitor mode is on, the audio from the COM that is
selected for reception only (only top LED illuminated) will be
muted when the radio that is selected to transmit becomes ac-
tive.
This function is useful if you are copying weather from AWOS on COM 2,
but have clearance delivery tuned in on COM 1. With the monitor active, the
AWOS audio will be silenced when clearance delivery starts to speak.
To activate the Monitor Function press and hold AUX. The audio will an-
nounce “Monitor on,” when activated, and “Monitor off” when deactivated
NOTE: This mode is NOT remembered through power cycles, to prevent
inadvertent blocking of desired audio on the next trip
.
“Music” Distribution Function
The Music Function has three modes. To cycle Music distribu-
tion modes,
press and hold Mute button until the annunciation starts.
When “Music number one, all headsets” is selected, Music 1
(Bluetooth source, or rear connector) will be distributed to all headsets and is
