PASSENGER ADDRESS (PA) SYSTEM
A passenger address system is available for delivering voice messages over the cabin speaker. When the
PA
Key is selected on the audio panel, the COM MIC Annunciation is extinguished, and the active COM frequency
changes to white, indicating that no COM is selected. A Push-to-Talk (PTT) must be pressed to deliver PA
announcements. The PA Annunciation flashes about once per second while the PTT is depressed.

CLEARANCE RECORDER AND PLAYER
The audio panel contains a digital clearance recorder that records up to 2.5 minutes of the selected COM
radio signal. Recorded COM audio is stored in separate memory blocks. Once 2.5 minutes of recording time
have been reached, the recorder begins recording over the stored memory blocks, starting from the oldest block.
The
PLAY
Key controls the play function. Pressing the
PLAY
Key once plays the latest recorded memory
block. The PLAY Annunciation flashes to indicate when play is in progress. The PLAY Annunciation turns off
after the present memory block has finished playing.
Pressing the
MKR/MUTE
Key during play of a memory block stops play. If a COM input signal is detected
during play of a recorded memory block, play is halted.
Pressing the
PLAY
Key while audio is playing begins playing the previously recorded memory block. Each
subsequent press of the
PLAY
Key selects the previously recorded memory block.
