3.0 Battery Box
A. Toggle Switch: The Toggle Switch on the battery box has 2 positions, Auto
and On. To turn the ANR On when not plugged in to the aircraft panel or
intercom, put the switch in the On position. To turn ANR Off, put switch in Auto
Position. When switch is left in Auto position ANR will automatically turn on
when headset is plugged in to the aircraft panel or live intercom system.
B. LED Light: The LED light indicates the power status of your ANR system.
When the light is illuminated, the ANR system is turned on .
C. Power Jack (On Battery Box): The power cord from the headset plugs into
the power jack on the face plate of the battery box.
D. Battery Compartment: The ANR system is powered by one 9V alkaline
battery. Battery life is estimated to be 25 – 35 hours depending on level of
noise in the environment. Battery life is also affected by age and extreme hot
and cold temperatures. To change the battery simply slide the battery plate off
the battery box and insert the new battery. Reinstall the plate and you’re ready
to go.
3.1 Cell/Satellite Phone Capable
In an emergency having the capability of being able to place a cell phone call from your
aircraft is one of the reasons we have installed a cell/satellite phone jack on the headset.
Located on the Right Ear Cup (non boom side) is a 3.5mm jack. Also provided are
different 2 patch cords that should work with 90% of cell phones in the marketplace. The
90 degree angle plug should connect to the headset and the straight plug to the phone.
Please note that the headset must be connected to a live intercom system for the phone
system to work properly.
3.2 AUX Music Input Jack
The same 3.5mm cell/satellite phone jack can also be used as an AUX music input. Plug
in your favorite music source and you’ll hear true stereo music in your headset.
3.3 Silicone Gel Ear Seals
Your headset is fitted with our premium silicone gel ear seals. This new design cuts
about 30% of the weight of normal silicone ear seals and provides a slightly larger inner
diameter for enhanced comfort for your ears.
3.4 Pillow Top Headpad
The PA-1761T has our most comfortable pillow top headpad to distribute the weight of
the headset. No more hot spots!
3.5 Taking Care of Your Headset
To insure the full life of your headset, keep it clean and free of dust and dirt. Clean your
headsets with non-alcohol wipes or a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild soap.
Never use alcohol. Plastic parts dry out or fray when exposed to alcohol based products.
Headband, ear cups, ear seals and cords can be lightly cleaned but one should be
careful around the microphone and speakers on the headset.
A. Mic Windscreen : We recommend periodically replacing the microphone
windscreen if necessary. The foam microphone windscreen helps eliminates the
popping “P”s and “T”s and annoying breath puffs when you’re communicating
with the headset. The foam microphone windscreen also helps protect the
microphone from moisture and other elements that may cause damage to the
electronics. You may use mild soap and water to clean your foam windscreen.
