volume knob controls the intercom level for the pilot and copilot, while the large knob controls the passen-
ger intercom volume. Intercom squelch is automatic.
A 3-light, 75 MHz Marker Beacon receiver is integrated in the PMA8000G. This provides the necessary
Marker Beacon lights and audio indications necessary for that portion of an Instrument Landing System
(ILS) approach. A pushbutton labeled MKR allows the pilot select high or low sensitivity as well as test
and mute modes.
In the PMA8000G, a Bluetooth® wireless interface is available for wireless telephone and music connec-
tion.
Our newest innovation is flightmate®, a tool that can improve flight safety and reduce workload. Having
flightmate on board will help to improve the pilot’s ability to recall pertinent information about the flight.
Flightmate® is the world’s first audio checklist system integrated into an audio panel. It is pilot configura-
ble by recording messages as desired with 2 ½ minutes of storage. No computer or special equipment is
required.
