Press again, and you will hear “Standard Music Distribution.” In this mode, Music 2 becomes active, and
will always be presented to the passengers on the intercom. Music 1 is only available to the pilot and copi-
lot. The intercom mode switch doesn’t have any affect on the music distribution.
When the music is standard, Music 1 will always go to the pilot and copilot positions, and is never heard by
the passengers. Music 2 is always heard by the passengers, and
never heard by the pilot and copilot.
This mode is useful if your passengers have a different interest in entertainment or are watching a DVD, but
do not want to be excluded from the intercom conversations.
The pilot and copilot will always hear Music 1 through the unit rear connector, or a source plugged into the
front panel jack. This is present in ALL and CREW intercom modes, and available to the copilot position in
ISO mode.
The pilot can hear this music source in ISO mode, if desired, as follows: In the ISO mode, hold the ICS
switch for more than one second. The ICS mode LED will blink slowly to indicate music is connected to
the pilot headset, although the intercom is not. Cycling power will disable this feature.
Music 2 is provided to the passenger positions regardless of intercom mode, when the audio panel is in
Standard Music Distribution, and also in Alternate Music Distribution, but only if the intercom is in the
CREW mode. The pilot and copilot can never hear Music 2, under any condition.
If the passengers always want to hear the source in Music 1, input through the rear connector, regardless of
the intercom mode (ISO/ALL/CRW), select “Music 1 all headsets.”
If the passengers want to hear the music input through the front panel jack, the audio panel MUST be in
Alternate Music Distribution, and the intercom must be in the ALL or ISO mode.

3.10.4 Music 1 Volume
In general, we recommend adjusting the entertainment volume at the sources, and only using this as a mas-
ter gain control. However, the Music 1 PMA8000C input can be adjusted from the front panel, if desired,
by pressing the combinations of keys listed.
The Music 1 volume can be adjusted from the front panel, if desired, by pressing the Music Volume
(SPR) button. When you press and hold the SPR button for more than one second, you’ll hear a chime, and
then the music will either increase or decrease, depending on the last operation. If the music is decreasing,
and you want it louder, release the button, and then hold it again until there a chime, followed by increasing
