PAR200A Audio Selector Panel, COM radio Controller and Intercom System
Installation and Operator’s Manual
200-228-0200 Page 3-8 June 2014
In ALL intercom mode, all crew and passengers will be heard on the phone when they speak. Com and
other selected radio audio is also heard in the headsets. If the pilot or copilot pushes the radio PTT, their
microphone will be transferred to the selected Com radio. The telephone party will not hear ATC commu-
nications, and vice versa. Passengers will not have telephone sidetone and will not hear the ringer.
In CREW mode, only the pilot and copilot are connected to the telephone. Passengers will not hear the
telephone. The pilot and copilot will also have transmit capability on the other selected transceiver.
In ISO intercom mode, when the PAR200A is in the TEL mode, the pilot position is in the "Phone Booth."
Only the pilot will hear the telephone, and only he will be heard. He will also have access to Com 1 or 2,
and will transmit on that radio using the PTT. All selected audio is provided to the pilot. Pilot will not have
telephone sidetone in Isolate mode.
NOTE
Because the cell-phone uses an intercom circuit, all stations on that circuit will lose intercom capability
when the cell phone is in use.
WARNING
Federal Communications Commission regulation 47 CFR 22.925 prohibits the use of 800MHz Cellular
handsets in any aircraft that is airborne. Violation of this rule could result in suspension of service and/or a
fine.
3.10 Music Inputs
The PAR200A has two independent music inputs at the rear connector. The PAR200A also has the ability
to receive streaming music from a Bluetooth-enabled device. If both inputs are active, both will be heard in
the headset at the same time, there is not any prioritization.
Music #1 will be normally heard by the pilot and copilot positions ONLY. Music 2 is ONLY available to
the two passenger positions.
Music #1 can also be distributed to the passengers using the rear connector control (See § 2.7.1.1). The
streamed music in the PAR200A is also Music 1.
