Engineering unit:
Part Number Description
11909 Push to talk intercom for use in noisy cockpits
1.3 Description
The PM1000II is a 4-place, panel mounted
intercom with individual volume and squelch
controls for the pilot and copilot. The copilot's
squelch control adjusts the trip level of the
copilot and passengers.
A front panel mode switch allows the pilot
to select two intercom configurations:
"ISO" mode isolates the pilot from the
intercom and connects to the aircraft radio. The
passengers can continue to communicate with
each other and listen to entertainment without
distracting the pilot. They do not hear radio
communications.
"ALL" mode places all headsets on a party
line. Each one hears aircraft radio, entertainment
and can use the intercom.
The PM1000II has an automatic fail-safe
interconnect to the aircraft radio. If power to the
intercom is disrupted, an internal relay will
connect the pilot's headset to the aircraft radio.
This allows continuous radio communications.
Note: The copilot will no longer hear aircraft
radio when power is removed.
The 2-color LED shows green when power is
on and red during radio transmissions. This
functions as a stuck mic indicator.
An auxiliary input is provided, allowing the
pilot, copilot and passengers the option to listen
to music during flight. During intercom or aircraft
radio activity, this music is automatically muted
to allow communications without distraction.
When the activity ceases, the Soft Mute circuit
will gradually return the music to the original
listening volume.
The "ISO" mode provides uninterrupted
aircraft radio communications for the Pilot.
Because the pilot's intercom volume control does
not affect the aircraft radio volume, it is possible
to select various balances of volume level
between the ICS and the aircraft radio while in
the ALL mode. Reducing the intercom volume,
the pilot places the aircraft radio in the
foreground while the ICS is in the background.
Both pilot and copilot have transmit
capabilities over the radio. The PM1000II allows
only the person who presses their PTT to be heard
over the aircraft radio. If both pilot and copilot
press the PTT at the same time, the copilot will
override (Ideally suited for training
environments). Pilot regains priority by switching
PM1000II with PTT-ICS, p/n 11909
