Section 1.0 Description
1.1 Introduction
Information in this section consists of product description, design features and specifications for the AA9x
Single Channel Audio Controller. All derivative product information shall be contained in the applicable
manual supplement, which may be obtained from AEM as required. Review all notes, warning and
cautions.
1.2 Purpose of Equipment
The AA9x series provide control for all aircraft audio, allowing selection of transmit and receive audio, LIVE,
KEYED, or VOX intercom, interface for an additional hand held transmit microphone (hand mic), and pilot
isolation/emergency operation.
Transmit and PA functions are controlled with a single rotary switch. Receive audio, ICS operations and tape
audio are controlled with toggle switches. Received volume, ICS volume and ICS VOX squelch are
individually adjusted with rotary controls. Sidetone (S/T) level is adjustable internally and the AA97 also has an
individual RX level control for each transceiver.
1.3 Design Features
The AA9x series are Dzus rail mounted units with lighted faceplates. Transceiver interfacing is
accomplished through directly switched microphones. To ensure maximum radio compatibility, it has a
ground-reference keyline that incorporates no diodes or other steering components.
Independent control is provided for each audio channel within the controller, allowing sidetone, ICS audio
and RX audio to be independently set.
Boom mic support is provided for the pilot and co-pilot, with both ICS and XMIT functions via cyclic or
yoke switching. In some models, a third ‘transmit capable’ boom mic is added. Live (Hot Mic) and VOX
ICS are also provided, with a ‘transparent’ function, allowing immediate transmission via this mode
without further control panel switching and immediate return to ICS operation on completion. The ICS
(intercom) function is achieved using dynamic noise reduction and active filtering. This provides the
clearest possible ICS audio under high ambient noise conditions by rejecting airframe and wind noise and
passing only voiceband information.
All audio, except the S/T of the radio in use and certain DIRECT AUDIO input signals, is muted during
transmit for clarity. ICS operation allows transmit during any ICS mode by using the transmit PTT switch.
All switches, relay contacts and external connections are gold plated for maximum reliability. Switches
and relays are sealed. G10-FR flame retardant circuit boards are postcoated for maximum moisture

2.4.2 Cautions
CAUTION:
Failure to follow the installation and wiring instructions provided in this manual
for power and ground connections, including the rating of the circuit breaker,
may lead to damage in the power input circuitry of the unit.
2.4.3 Cabling and Wiring
All wire shall be selected in accordance with the original aircraft manufacturer's Maintenance Instructions
or AC43.13-1B Change 1, Paragraphs 11-76 through 11-78. Unshielded wire types shall qualify to
MIL-W-22759 as specified in AC43.13-1B Change 1, Paragraphs 11-85, 11-86, and listed in Table 11-11.
For shielded wire applications, use Tefzel MIL-C-27500 shielded wire with solder sleeves (for shield
terminations) to make the most compact and easily terminated interconnect. Follow the connector map in
Section 2.7 as required.
Allow 3" from the end of the shielded wiring to the shield termination to allow the connector hood to be
easily installed. Reference the interconnect drawing in Section 2.7 for shield termination details. Note that
the hood is a "clamshell" hood, and is installed after the wiring is complete.
Maintain wire segregation and route wiring in accordance with the original aircraft manufacturers’
Maintenance Instructions.
Unless otherwise noted, all wiring shall be a minimum of 22 AWG, except power and ground lines, which
shall be a minimum of 20 AWG. Reference the Interconnect drawing for additional specifications. Check
that the ground connection is clean and well secured, and that it shares no path with any electrically noisy
aircraft accessories such as blowers, turn and bank instruments or similar loads.
2.4.4 In-line PTT Cordsets
In-line, push-to-talk (PTT) cordsets (also known as drop cords) can be used to create/provide PTT
capability for the user headsets that do not have yoke or cyclic mounted PTT switches. For headsets
connected to the PILOT or COPILOT inputs/outputs of the AA9x series, ICS and TX keylines are needed
to properly activate the associated PTT circuitry inside the AA9x series. For headsets connected to the
PASSENGER inputs/outputs of the AA9x series, a method of controlling the microphone on the headset
is needed because of the 'hot mic' circuitry. This is best accomplished with a 'mic interrupt' switch in the
PTT cordset.
There are numerous manufacturers of in-line PTT cordsets, offering many 'electrical' variations to
accomplish different functions. To meet the operational requirements for headset stations supported by
the AA9x series, AEM recommends the dual switch type: a 3-position (momentary/center-off/locking)
slider switch for the ICS functions and a momentary push-button switch for the Transmit functions. Both
switches provide a ‘mic interrupt’ function. The 3-position ICS switch will allow the user to change the
switch settings to match the operational intercom mode that has been selected at the AA9x series
(e.g., LIVE, KEYED or VOX). The cable should have 6 conductors with the MIC and PHONE pairs
shielded (MIC wires must be shielded as a minimum). To ensure proper shielding, the shield(s) should be

terminated to the MIC LO connection at the airframe connector of the PTT cordset. See Figure 1 below
for details.
Figure 1: PTT Cord for Use with AEM Audio Controllers (XMIT and ICS)
To avoid complications in the aircraft, it is recommended that the same type of PTT cordsets be used for
all headset locations in the aircraft. It is not good practice to create a situation where a specific cordset is
needed for the copilot, which might cause operational errors if moved to a passenger location.
Although in-line PTT cordsets can be used to conveniently address a number of requirements for
microphone and PTT control, they can also be a source of trouble if incorrectly configured, or improperly
shielded.
Many in-line PTT cordsets use the PHONE LO connection as the ground reference for the ICS and TX
PTT keylines. The PHONE LO connection in the AA9x series is floating, which will lead to incorrect keying
of the intercom and radio systems if this type of cordset is used.
In-line PTT cordsets can be a source for crosstalk if the MIC wire pair in the cordset is not shielded. The
source of the crosstalk is the high level Phones audio being coupled on to the MIC HI/LO pair in the
in-line PTT cordset, because of the lack of shielding for this wire pair. Once the mic line is contaminated,
the undesired audio can be sent into the audio system as ‘mic audio’, then processed and distributed to
all other audio controllers via the ICS Tie Line.

2.4.5 Post Installation Checks
2.4.5.1 Voltage/Resistance Checks
Do not attach the AA9x Series until the following conditions are met.
Check the following:
a) Check P101, pins <16> and <17> for +28 Vdc relative to ground.
b) Check P101 pin <34> for continuity to ground (less than 0.5:).
c) Check P102 pin <19> for lights buss voltage.
d) Check all Mic, phone, music and key lines for shorts to ground or adjacent pins.
2.4.5.2 Power On Checks
Power up the aircraft’s systems and confirm normal operation of all functions of the AA9x Series. Refer to
Section 3 (Operation) for specific operational details.
a) Begin with only the Pilot's headset installed, no hand mic. Confirm correct radio operation,
both receive and transmit. Check yoke (or cyclic) switch action. Check radio audio inputs and
selection of same.
b) If there is a music source in the system turn it on and verify that music is muted in the CREW
mode and removed in the PLT ISO mode. Check for proper mute operation. Do not proceed
until the radios are functioning correctly. The S/T (sidetone) trimpot accessible through the left
side of the controller and the transceiver internal trimpot may have to be adjusted for correct
balance for the pilot. Adjustment of the individual radio RX levels should be set first with the AA9x
series in Pilot ISO mode; then adjust the AA9x series front panel RX master volume control level
in NORMAL mode.
c) Unusual buzzes, hums or other background audio are symptomatic of multiple grounds, or
noisy external systems such as blowers or pumps sharing wiring with the audio system.
Failure to key or correctly modulate a transmitter is often the result of forgetting to connect all
required grounds to the radio or external audio system.
d) Check the ICS Modes (ALL, CREW, PLT ISO), and the manual Fail-safe operation.
e) Plug in the Co-pilot's headset. Check for correct ICS and SPLIT transmit operation. Check
that the Co-pilot loses transmit capability during PLT ISO. Check yoke switch functions.
f) Plug in the hand mic, if installed, and test for correct operation in all modes. (Hand mic
activation does not illuminate the TX light.) Note that wiring faults for this accessory may
cause peculiar loss of ICS or TX functions because it has over-riding priority in the system.
g) Plug in any remaining headsets, and check for correct ICS operation. Note that an incorrect
cordset (drop cord) or improper jack wiring may cause a wide range of problems from loss of
audio to a tone heard in the headset. For further information, see section 2.4.4 above.
i) To verify proper operation, all functions and levels shall be checked in-flight.
j) Check preset adjustments are completed before aircraft departure.
