Installation Manual

3.5.5.2 Soft Mute (Stereo)
Both entertainment devices have the "Soft Mute" mode. In units earlier than a “G” intercom board serial
number (second set of numbers), only entertainment input #1 has the mute inhibit capability. "Soft Mute"
mode for the Crew positions (Entertainment 1) can be selected by pressing in the Volume control knob
once. In later units the SQL knob controls the Soft Mute of the passengers entertainment (#2).
3.5.5.3 Entertainment Input
The audio selector panel has provisions for up to two separate entertainment input devices. Which device is
heard is determined by the position of the three position mode switch located in the center of the intercom
section of the audio panel. (See Table 3-1 for overview.)
While in the ISO (Isolate) mode, only the copilot and the four passengers will hear entertainment device #1.
In normal operation, whenever a person speaks or if the aircraft radio becomes active, the music will
automatically mute and then will gradually return to the original listening level when the intercom or radio
activity ceases.
Which entertainment device will be heard is determined by the mode selector switch. When in the A
LL
mode, all parties will hear the entertainment input #1. While in the C
REW
mode, pilot and copilot will hear
entertainment input #1 while the passengers may listen to entertainment input #2.
It is also possible to use only one entertainment input device for both entertainment inputs. It is suggested
however, that a switch (DPDT) be installed between the single entertainment device and entertainment
input #1. This will allow the pilot and copilot decide if they hear entertainment while in the Crew mode.

3.5.6 Push to talk intercom mode
SL10-series audio selector/intercom systems with serial number beginning with the letter “M” (monaural
version) or “G” (stereo version).
In some extremely high noise environments, it may be desirable to have a push to talk (PTT) intercom,
instead of relying on voice-activation (VOX).
In SL10 series with later configuration boards, the PTT intercom capability is added. To operate the PTT,
simply rotate the SL10 squelch control to maximum (fully CW). Grounding the appropriate pin on the top
connector through a momentary switch will open only that intercom channel. The pilot and copilot are
individually. All passenger mics are controlled with pin 20.
The same pins are used for both mono and stereo SL10 Systems. This applies ONLY to units with
applicable serial numbers.
