JA95-N22 Audio Controller - Flight Crew - NVG
SECTION 1 - DESCRIPTION
1.1
System Overview
The JA95-N22 Audio Controller - Flight Crew - NVG is a centralized audio management system that distributes and
controls all transceiver, receiver and alert audio in an aircraft. It enables the selected transmission of microphone
audio to a transceiver and distributes all intercom audio.
The JA95-N22 Audio Controller - Flight Crew - NVG can be used in a standalone configuration or a star configuration
to prevent the loss of the entire system due to the failure of one controller. It provides a passive emergency mode
that directs the primary user (pilot) to the COM1 transceiver, NAV1 receiver and Direct Audio receiver.
The JA95-N22 is set up on a per-installation basis using a configuration cable and a PC running the product
configuration tool to download system configuration settings via the front panel music / configuration connector (

without the necessity of removing the unit from the panel. To facilitate future customizations and certification, no
software or complex electronic devices are used in the JA95-N22 design.

Features Overview
The JA95-N22 features a 37-pin D-Sub connector, which interfaces with the radio receive audio and crew phones, a
50-pin D-Sub connector which interfaces with the power and passenger headset connections. This layout minimizes
crosstalk and follows industry standard interconnect for multi-user Audio Controllers.
Many of the input and output levels are adjustable, several audio paths are selectable, and alert audio analog
waveforms can be loaded using the configuration program ProCS™ (
