ComPriority™ 

ComPriority is turned on or off by the bottom-most 
controller button. With ComPriority on and when 
radio communications are detected, the volume 
of auxiliary devices will be significantly reduced. To 
enable ComPriority, turn on the feature, plug into your 
intercom and talk into the headset microphone while 
playing music over a wired device. If enabled, your 
auxiliary music volume will decrease when you start 
to talk. During cell phone calls, the other party will be 
muted, so disable ComPriority before making calls.

control for your microphone, helping balance loud 
and soft voices in a multi-headset environment. To

the small cap next to the Lightspeed logo. Turn the 
dial clockwise to increase gain and counterclockwise 
to decrease gain. Move the dial in small increments 
(think one-hour increments on a clock face) and test it 
in your aircraft. Replace the cap and foam windscreen 
when you are satisfied with the adjustment.

Wired Auxiliary Devices

Zulu 3’s wired auxiliary input allows you to connect 
to cell phones and to most audio devices. To 
connect a music player to Zulu 3’s auxiliary input 
jack, use the cord provided. To adjust the volume on 
a device connected to Zulu 3’s auxiliary input jack, 
use the controls on the device itself.
