Communications Receive
(RCV) Selection (3)
To listen to the other radio, press
the upper button, in the RCV (receive)
section. When a com is selected for
receive, it will stay selected until
manually deselected, even if you
select, and then deselect its
transmitter.
Unless the audio panel is in "split"
mode, the KMA 30 gives priority to the
pilot's radio Push-To-Talk (PTT).
If the MONITOR function is
activated, the audio from this radio will
be muted when the primary radio
(selected for transmit) is receiving a
signal.
In TEL mode, the pilot is
connected to the cell phone, but still
hears the COM radios selected. The
radio PTT will switch the mic to
the selected com, and
continued aircraft communications to
continue. (See Telephone section.)
Audio Selector (4)
These buttons select the
switched navigation receivers. The
DME input (if present) is also shared
with AUX. In SPLIT mode, only the
pilot will hear selected navigation
audio.
Cockpit Speaker (5)
14
allow
This switch will place all selected
audio on the cockpit speaker when
this switch is selected. In "Split" mode,
the speaker carries the same audio as
the pilot.
Depending on installation,
important audio alerts such as radar
altimeter or autopilot disconnect will
come over the speaker even if it is not
selected, while other unswitched
inputs, will only be present if the SPR
button is selected.
Consult your professional
avionics installer for these important
configuration
details.
Intercom Operation
IntelliVox® VOX-Squelch
IntelliVox® is a proprietary
intercom squelch control. Through the
use of digital processors, each
microphone is monitored, and opens
instantly when human speech is
detected. This results in seamless
conversations aboard the airplane for
crew and passengers, without syllable
clipping or fatigue-inducing noise.
No adjustment of the IntelliVox®
squelch control is necessary. There is
no field adjustment. The system is
designed to block continuous tones,
therefore people humming or whistling
in monotone may be blocked after a
few moments.
For consistent performance, any
headset microphone must be placed
within ¼-inch of your lips, preferably
against them. It is important to have
the microphone element parallel to
your mouth, and not twisted inside the
cover.
