7. Radiated signals can be a factor when low level microphone signals are bundled with current carrying power wires Keep these cables physically separated It is very important that you use insulated washers to isolate the ground return path from the airframe to all headphone and microphone jacks 2 4 1 1 Music Inputs and Noise PAR200A units utilize differential music inputs to help prevent noise from entering the music system This feature is usually transparent to the installer however it is important that the appropriate music signal and ground connections are made directly to the dedicated music signal and ground inputs on the PAR200A The power for IFE and audio panel should be a common bus If a music jack is installed for Music or 2 we strongly recommend isolating the jack from airframe ground by using an insulated mounting plate NOTE Adding a high performance audio control system particularly in conjunction with high performance active noise canceling headsets cannot improve on older avionics that were designed for cabin speaker use PS Engineering makes no claim that the audio panel will provide a noise free audio quality under all installa tion conditions particularly with older avionics 2 4 2 Audio Panel Tray and Connector Assembly The rack connectors mate with two 44 pin connectors in the PAR200A The connectors are a sub miniature crimp type and require the use a hand crimp tool from table below or equi
8. Radio power as COM 1 only The power supply for the TY91 communication transceiver is separate from the audio panel power and control When the TY91 is installed as COM 1 or as a stand alone COM it can be controlled separately in the event of a problem in the audio panel portion or audio panel power If the audio panel is turned off by the left knob or the audio panel breaker is opened the display will indi cate Push radio knob within 6 countdown seconds to keep radio on If the knob is not pushed the com radio will also turn off but if the data knob is pushed within the radio display volume and frequency con trol will remain active 3 2 1 1 Radio Power TY91 L as COM 2 If the Trig TY91 is configured as Com 2 it will turn off when the audio panel is off and the pilot will be connected directly to Com 1 3 2 2 ICS and Radio Volume Controls 1 The inner knob ICS controls the volume of the intercom audio It does not affect the radio telephone or music volume The outer knob RAD controls the volume of the TY91L COM radio 200 228 0200 Page 3 1 June 2014 PS Engineering Inc PAR200A Audio Selector Panel COM radio Controller and Intercom System Installation and Operator s Manual Adjust the radio and intercom volume for a comfortable listening level Most general aviation headsets to day have built in volume controls therefore volume also can be further adjusted at the individual headset 3 3 Commun
