Adjusting Pilot and Passenger Headset Volume (GMA350c)
To ensure you and your passengers have an enjoyable flight its worth a few moments to
ensure the headset volumes are set to appropriate levels so everyone can hear and
understand any instructions. Headset volume is controlled in three places:
Radio Volume. This is controls the volume of
incoming radio calls from ATC and other aircraft and
is a single setting for all intercom positions in the
aircraft. The pilot will usually set this to best suite
his/her listening preferences.
Intercom Volume. This controls the volume of all
radio and intercom signals in three zones; Pilot, Co-
Pilot and rear seat Passengers (all three rear seats
are grouped together) Use the upper “Skinny” part of
the knob to change the headset volume. As soon as
you rotate this knob the unit will start to adjust the
Pilots headset volume and the triangular LED above
“Pilot” will flash. The stack of LEDs beside the knob
will also show the volume changing graphically.
Seat Selection. To change to the volume for the
next seat(s)/person, use the lower “Base” part of the
knob to step through the seating positions. The
triangular LED above the “seat” will flash as you
rotate the knob and you can then adjust that person’s
volume
Headset Volume. Lastly, most brands of headsets
allow the user to adjust the overall volume of all the
signals coming into their ears. These volume controls
may be on a “Control Module” built into the cable, or
on some models the rotary knobs are on the outside
of the ear cups of the headset itself. High-end
headsets will also allow for a cable or Bluetooth
connection to an audio player; such as an iPhone or
iPod.
