Step 2:
We are now preparing to transfer the magnetic stripe (the one already
installed on the Avee) to the headphones using the Avee microphone as a jig. Let
the magnetic stripe be attached to the Avee microphone, and remove the adhesive
stripe
protective backing from the magnetic stripe
.
The magnetic stripe
should stay
on the Avee microphone
and the adhesive side should be facing the headphone.
Make sure using only one magnet stripe.
Step 3:
Guide the add-on to the base of the left
headphone and firmly press it in place for minimum 30
seconds. Once attached, carefully unplug it to reveal the
adhesive magnetic stripe being transferred to the
headphones.
Press firmly on the tape to ensure all edges of the tape
have adhered to the headphones.
Optimally the adhesive on the magnetic stripe needs a
24 hrs curing time.
That is all - the Avee aviation microphone is ready to be used!
Connecting the Avee microphone to the aircraft
To start using the Avee microphone in the aircraft, follow this procedure:
1.
Plug the Avee aircraft interface cable into the Avee microphone using the
angled USB connector. Use force to make the USB C connector go all the
way into the USB socket. The connection may be done in two directions –
either the cable pointing upwards – or the cable is pointing downwards.
2.
Attach the Avee microphone to the headset. Make sure the Avee
microphone is clamped safely to the headset.
3.
Plug the Avee aircraft interface into the aircraft. Please note that the
aircraft connector might be the dual GA, Lemo Redel, Neutricon or XLR-5 –
all depending on what you have purchased from us & what is available in
your aircraft.
4.
Switch on the ANR feature on the headphones. Please note that you will
always have audio in your headphones regardless of headphone battery
level or headphones ANR status and
The Avee microphone output is NOT affected by headphone battery power
level.
5.
When the aircraft radio & intercom is switched on, the mic add-on will get
bias power from the aircraft. This is indicated with a steady dimmed Power
indicator light on the bottom side of the Avee microphone.
6.
The internal Bluetooth
®
available in your headset will automatically
disconnect all units connected via Bluetooth
®
when the Avee microphone is
connected.
To be able to listen to music or use your phone when flying, you need the
Avee BlueLink. Check out our web pages for more info on this product.
Headphone volume setting
Adjust the headphone volume by using the
Volume knob
on the Avee microphone.
Rotate clockwise for max volume and anti-clockwise for minimum volume.
Please note that for most pilots the normal procedure for adjusting the headphone
volume is by setting the Avee headphone volume to maximum – and then adjusting
the volume
from the aircraft audio panel.
In small GA aircrafts, the headset volume is typically adjusted individually for pilot
and co-pilot. Volume level in the
left back seat
is following the
pilot volume le
vel,
while the
right back seat
is
following the level set by the co-pilot
.
In this case we suggest letting the back seaters adjust the volume level to lower
level (if needed) using the volume control on the Avee microphone.
Microphone output level
The microphone output level is factory set to a normal output level, and will usually
not require adjustments. The output level may however be set by using the Mic
level adjustment knob on the bottom side of the Avee microphone and your finger
nail or the corner of a credit card as a tool.
Level 9 is maximum and level 1 is minimum level. Factory setting level is 3.
Avoid setting the output level to high. This will make the noise cancelling
microphone in the Avee pick up unnecessary cockpit/ambient noise and the signal
might saturate.
Headset mono & stereo mode
The Avee microphone is set to the mono mode (factory setting), by turning the
mono / stereo adjustment knob fully to ‘M’. To set stereo mode, turn the
adjustment knob fully to S.
Please note that most aircrafts
have a mono radio & intercom system. If you set the Avee to stereo mode in an
aircraft with mono support, you will lose the sound in the right earphone.
