4.6 AUDIO PANELS PREFLIGHT PROCEDURE
NOTE:
If the pilot and/or copilot are using headsets that have a high/low switch or volume control knob,
verify that the switch is in the high position and the volume control on the headsets are at maximum volume
setting. On single-pilot flights, verify that all other headsets are not connected to avoid excess noise in the
audio system.
NOTE:
Adjusting the PILOT volume control will affect ICS audio that will be heard in the headset for the
flight crew member that is performing the adjustment. Keep in mind that the intercom volumes on the
Audio Panels are independent of one another, but the radio volumes are not.
NOTE:
When the MAN SQ Key is pressed, the ICS squelch can be set manually by the pilot and copilot. If
manual squelch is set to full open (SQ annunciated and the knobs turned counterclockwise) background
noise will be heard in the ICS system as well as during COM transmissions.
After powering up the G1000 System, the following steps will aid in maximizing the use of the Audio Panels
as well as prevent pilot and copilot induced issues. These preflight procedures should be performed each time a
pilot boards the aircraft to insure awareness of all audio levels in the Audio Panel and radios.
