Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Diamond DA40 190-00592-00 Rev. A5-2
AUDIO PANEL
MONO/STEREO HEADSETS
Stereo headsets are recommended for use in this
aircraft.
Using a monaural headset in a stereo jack shorts the
right headset channel output to ground. While this does
not damage the audio panel, a person listening on a mon
-
aural headset hears only the left channel in both ears. If
a monaural headset is used at any of the passenger posi-
tions, any other passenger using a stereo headset hears
audio in the left ear only, unless their headset has a mono/
stereo switch that is set to mono.
The Diamond DA40 is equipped with four stereo
head-
set jacks (for the pilot, copilot and two passengers).
UNMUTED/UNSWITCHED INPUTS
The audio panel provides four unmuted/unswitched
inputs that are always present on the headsets or speaker.
These inputs are the following aural warnings:
• ALTITUDE WARNING
• UNSWITCHED 1
• UNSWITCHED 2
• UNSWITCHED 3
