may operate, nor may any operator or pilot in command of an aircraft allow

The front panel "Mute" button has three modes, and controls the Mute func-
tion for Music 1.
The SoftMute™ circuit will mute the music whenever there is conversation
on the radio, the intercom, or both, depending on the “Mute” mode selected.
When that conversation stops, the music returns to the previous level com-
fortably, over a second or so.
The mute mode functions are controlled through sequential pushes of the
MUTE button, and include annunciations of the mode selected. The
PMA8000G always defaults to Mute On when turned on.
Mute On- music will mute with either intercom or radio - MUTE button is
lit green. Voice annunciation is "mute on."
Mute Off - “Karaoke” mode - music will not mute except during outgoing
radio transmissions.- MUTE indicator is OFF. Annunciation is "mute off."
Radio Mute - Radio communications will mute music, but intercom will not
mute music - MUTE indicator is OFF. Annunciation is "radio mute."
The passenger’s intercom also has a SoftMute™ circuit. If the passengers
hear the radio, or talk on the intercom, the music will mute. If the audio pan-
el is in CREW mode, then the radio reception will not affect the passenger
music.
Passengers also have a Mute Off or “Karaoke” mode. If the passengers are
listening to the music 1 input, their Mute Off is controlled by the front panel
“Mute” button. If the passengers are listening to the music 2 input, their Kar-
aoke Mode is activated by an external switch installed either in the panel, or
connected to the AUX button logic output pin on the PMA8000G.
Music Distribution (DISTR)
The Music Distribution button allows you to either dis-
tribute the music 1 input to all intercom stations, all of
the time, or have other distribution rules apply to your
music inputs.
When “Music one all headsets” is selected (press and
hold MUSIC), music 1 (from the rear connector input,
Pins J2 23 & 24 only) or Bluetooth will be distributed to
all headsets and is independent of the intercom mode switch. Therefore, even
