By pressing SPR pushbutton for more than 1 second, the AeroPanel 100 will be placed into public address
(PA) mode. SPR light will flash letting the pilot know PA Mode is active. In this mode, the pilot will be

COM radio.

Pin 12 of J2 is a TTL logic
output
that is active low during PTT operation.

Pin 18 of the J2 connector is pulled to ground whenever the AUX button is depressed. This serves as a control
line for external devices, such as an entertainment system that the pilot wishes to control.
This pin can also be used to control passenger (Music 2) Karaoke Mode, by connecting to pin 13 of the J2.
