PMA8000E-1

Intercom -*wMonitor The PMA8000C provides for an additional communications transceiver. While most aircraft have two Com radios, there are cases where a third transceiver is required. The PMA8000C not only allows the connection of three radios, it also provides 3 unique split transmit modes. Pilot Com 1 - Copilot Com 2 Pilot Com 1 - Copilot Com 3 Pilot Com 2 - Copilot Com 3 This is particularly helpful when there are special missions required. As an example, Com 3 could be a HF or UHF radio. Unlike the GMA340 where only Pilot Com 1 - Copilot Com 2, the PMA8000C adds this additional flexibility. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The PMA8000D is a system that consists of two interconnected audio panels. This provides the pilot and copilot their own audio selector panel. With the intelligent digital interface control, the pilot has command of the entire audio panel system yet can easily offload some of the radio work to the copilot. Special intercom configurations allow the pilot undisturbed radio communications while permitting the copilot and passengers to communicate and share entertainment or telephone devices.

This system prevents the copilot from over-riding the pilot's audio panel configurations, or interrupting the pilot's radio communications. Because this intelligent approach, the pilot and copilot will treat their respective audio panels as their very own, never second guessing what configuration the other person has his audio panel in. With two independent Bluetooth® interfaces, any one of a number of configurations will allow distribution of telephone and music. In fact, the Bluetooth® interface in the Pilot's audio panel is strictly for the pilot. The pilot may or may not take advantage of that capability, but it's always there. Through the use of expansion units, it is possible to have up to 12 passengers connected to the system. They too can have "party line" access to the Bluetooth® enabled telephone without interfering with the crew. WARRANTY 3-year Pro-Support exchange program, when installed by an authorized PS Engineering Dealer. After the warranty expires, a fixed repair fee will cover any repair. See Warranty Information in Installation manual. ORDERING INFORMATION PART NO.
