PMA8000G      Pilot Guide R3  

Long press 

– Controls marker low & high sense change. When HIGH is 

selected, the HIGH indicator will be lit in green. Se-
lection will be remembered during power cycles. Be-
cause LOW is default mode, the indicator will be nor-
mally off.  

Bluetooth® Telephone Mode 

There is a ringtone in the headset when a call is received. The 

PLAY 

button 

flashes green, and you can answer by pressing the button. It remains green 
while a call is in progress. 

The telephone mode serves as a full duplex 
interface for telephone systems such as cel-
lular phones with Bluetooth

®

 connectivity. 

When interfaced with an approved airborne 
telecommunications system, the 
PMA8000G can serve as an audio control and distribution center. 

In 

ALL

 intercom mode, crew and passengers will be heard on the phone 

when they speak. All will hear selected audio. Com audio is automatically 
heard in the headsets. 

In 

CREW

 mode, the pilot and copilot are connected to the telephone. The 

pilot and copilot will have transmit capability on the other selected transceiv-
er Com 1 or 2, simply by using their respective PTT switch. 

In 

ISO

 intercom mode, when the PMA8000G is in the 

TEL

 mode, the pilot 

position is in the "Phone Booth." Only the pilot will hear the 
telephone, and only he will be heard. He will also have access to 
Com 1 or 2, and will transmit on that radio using the PTT. All 
selected audio is provided. You can end the call by pressing 

PLAY 

again. 

Music and Music Muting 

The PMA8000G has two independent music inputs at the rear 
connector.  

The PMA8000G also has the ability to receive streaming mu-
sic from a Bluetooth-enabled device. 

Music 1 will be heard by the pilot and copilot positions. Music 
1 can also be distributed to the passengers using the MUSIC 
DISTR control. The Bluetooth streamed music in the PMA8000G is also 
handled as Music 1. 

NOTE: 

All music devices should be turned off for take off, landing, or any critical 
phase of flight. FAA Regulation 14 CFR 91.21 restricts the use of portable 
electronic devices. 

§91.21 “(a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, no person
