Music 1 and Soft Mute Control

The right-side volume knob controls the loudness of the internal CD player.

The volume knob controls the music volume only, it has no effect on the intercom or radio volume, or the
secondary music input level.

This knob is also the Soft Mute control for the CD player. Normally, the music is instantly muted during
radio or intercom conversation, and returns gradually to full volume when conversation stops. Pushing the
knob once will inhibit the soft mute, enabling a “Karoake” mode, where the music remains at he normal
level for a sing-along. Push again to return to a soft muting mode.

3.3.3.1 Mono headsets in Stereo Installation

Plugging a mono headset into the pilot or copilot jacks has no effect other than there will be no stereo left
and right separation. Since all passenger headsets are connected in parallel, if a monaural headset is plugged
in to a PCD7100 Stereo installation, one channel will be shorted. Although no damage to the unit will oc-
cur, all stereo-equipped passengers will lose one channel. PS Engineering modifies headsets to add stereo
capability, using high-fidelity speakers. Contact factory for details (865-988-9800 or www.ps-
engineering.com).

3.3.4

Intercom Modes

On the left side of the intercom-versions is a 3-position mode switch that allows the pilot to tailor the inter-
com function to best meet the current cockpit situation.

I

SO

: (Up Position): The pilot is isolated from the intercom and is connected only to the aircraft radio sys-

tem. He will hear the aircraft radio reception (and sidetone during radio transmissions). Copilot and passen-
gers will hear intercom and CD player. Neither will hear aircraft radio receptions or pilot transmissions.
