Section I, General Information

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your selection of the PS Engineering PAV80
In-flight Entertainment system. This system, designed specifically
for general aviation, combines a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD)
player with CD and MP3 capability with an AM/FM radio for ulti­mate in-flight entertainment capability.

Please read this Pilot Guide so you can become familiar with

the features packed into the PAV80.

EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION

The PAV80 System is a single panel mounted unit that contains a DVD
player with MP3 media capability and an AM/FM radio receiver. It also
contains a high-fidelity stereo amplifier to provide the entertainment out­put to the aircraft audio system. Up to four remote-mounted video dis­plays can provide visual entertainment to the passengers (with optional
equipment required to use more than one display).

An 8-digit LED display provides information about the systems modes
and media in use.

Because of the high-speed data requirements of the DVD mechanism,
the radio frequency reception using the internal antenna is limited.
Therefore, when used for AM or FM reception, the operator may
only receive the most powerful 3 to 5 stations. In contrast to an ADF,
where audio fidelity is not important, the PAV80 requires higher signal
levels to ensure fidelity.

For optimum performance, some installers may desire an external
AM/FM antenna. PS Engineering recommends a Comant CI-222-series.

Section II OPERATION

At PS Engineering we believe that we have made the PAV80 simple to
use. However, we have packed loads of features into the system to make
it flexible, so it will meet your requirements for cross country flying in
light aircraft.

We’ll start with a tour of the front panel. We call it human-machine inter­face, but you can call it knobs and buttons.

the MP3 tagged information screen. Select the General tab to show the informa­tion that can be modified for the PAV80.

The PAV80 can display song name, artist, album, and filename. This corre­sponds to the Track title, Artist, Album, and Track Filename fields shown on
the screen. Each of these fields can be modified to the user’s preference. Note:
The PAV80 is limited to displaying up to 22 characters in each of these fields.
Click on the appropriate field to modify the track title, artist, or album. To
modify the filename, select the Rename Files button in the lower left corner.
Click on the field labeled New File Name and press OK to change the file
name. Press the Apply and OK buttons to update the information
