lose one channel, unless they switch to the “MONO” mode on the headset.
PS Engineering modifies headsets to add stereo capability, using high-
fidelity speakers. Contact factory for details.
Intercom Modes
The lower switch on the left side is a 3-position mode switch that allows
the pilot to tailor the intercom function to best meet the current cockpit
situation. The description of the intercom mode function is valid only when
the unit is not in the "Split" mode. Then, the pilot and copilot intercom is
controlled with the ICS button.
I
SO: (Up Position): The pilot is isolated from the intercom and is connected
only to the aircraft radio system. He will hear the aircraft radio reception
(and sidetone during radio transmissions). Copilot will
hear passengers’ intercom and Entertainment 1, while
passengers will hear copilot intercom and Entertain-
ment 2. Neither will hear aircraft radio receptions or
pilot transmissions.
A
LL: (Middle Position): All parties will hear the air-
craft radio and intercom. Crew will hear Entertainment
1, passengers will hear Entertainment 2. During any
radio or intercom communications, the music volume automatically de-
creases. The music volume increases gradually back to the original level
after communications have been completed.
C
REW (Down Position): Pilot and copilot are connected on one intercom
channel and have exclusive access to the aircraft radios. They may also
listen to Entertainment 1. Passengers can continue to communicate with
themselves without interrupting the Crew and also may listen to Entertain-
ment 2.
Anytime the PMA7000B is in either the Split Mode ("C
OM 1/COM 2, COM
1/C
OM 3"), the pilot and copilot intercom is controlled with the ICS button.
The passengers will maintain intercommunications, but never hear aircraft
radios.
Alternate Intercom Mode
If an external switch is installed for the purpose, the PMA7000B can enter
“Alternate Intercom Mode.” When the intercom is in ALL mode, with al-
ternate mode enabled the passengers will NOT hear the aircraft radios, but
they will hear the crew on the intercom. In addition, the crew microphones
will be blocked from the crew headsets while the radio audio is active.
Entertainment Input
The audio selector panel has provisions for two separate entertainment in-
put devices. Music 1 feeds the pilot and copilot positions, music 2 feeds the
passenger positions. They operate independently in the PMA7000B.
While in the ISO (Isolate) mode, the copilot will hear Entertainment 1
