instructions.
Refer to 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.
2.4.3 Mechanical Installation
The JCP3-070 can be mounted in any attitude and location with adequate space for the front panel and sufficient
clearance for the connector and wiring harness. It requires no direct cooling.
2.4.4 Legend Replacement
The JCP3-070 illuminated legends are field replaceable. For further information, refer to the ‘Legend Replacement’
document in Appendix A of this manual.
2.4.5 Post Installation Checks
2.4.5.1 Voltage/Resistance checks.
Do not attach this unit until the following conditions are met:
a) Check P1 between pins 1and 9 for +13 Vdc power.
b) Check P1 pin 14 for +5 Vdc lights voltage or P1 pin 15 for +28 Vdc lights voltage.
c) Check P1 pin 10 (Chassis ground) for continuity to ground (less than 0.5 Ω).
d) Confirm P1 pin 13 (RESET INPUT) is connected to the Remote Audio Controller P3 pin 13 (RESET
OUTPUT)
e) Check all pins 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 JCP3-070. Refer to
Section 3 (Operation) for specific operational details.
a) Begin with only the pilot’s headset attached. Confirm correct ICS and radio operation for both receive and
transmit. Check yoke or cyclic switch action. Check the radio selection and inputs. Do not proceed until the
radios are functioning correctly.
b) If there is a music source in the system, turn it on and check for proper mute operation.
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. If a transmitter fails to key or
correctly modulate it is often the result of not connecting all required grounds to the radio or external audio
system.
d) Check the ICS operation and Emergency operation.
e) Plug in the co-pilot’s headset. Check for correct ICS operation. Check yoke or cyclic switch functions.
f) 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.
g) Check that all configurations settings are correct.
When all performance checks are satisfied, complete the necessary regulatory documentation before releasing the
aircraft for service. Refer to Appendix B.

(1) Individual Volume Controls
These are eight non-illuminated rotary controls,
each of which is associated with the COM or
NAV switch below it.
Rotating a control clockwise (cw) will increase
the volume of the associated radio, and rotating
it counterclockwise (ccw) will reduce it.
(2) Transceiver Switches
These are six white two-position toggle switches.
When a switch is set to the ‘up’ position, audio from
the associated transceiver is routed to the phones.
The legends (above the switches) are
interchangeable to allow customization.
(Default – COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5
and COM6)
(3) Receiver Switches
These are two blue two-position centre-off
toggle switches. When a switch is set to the ‘up’
or ‘down’ position audio from the selected
receiver is routed to the phones.
The legends (two above and two below the
switches) are interchangeable to allow
customization. (Default – NAV1, NAV2, NAV3,
N4&5.)
(4) Master Receive Volume Control
This is a rotary knob that adjusts the phones volume of
the receive audio from minimum - fully counterclockwise
(ccw) to maximum - fully clockwise (cw). Individual radio
volume controls should be set to a nominal level, and
then adjusted for changing flight conditions using this
control.
(5) EMER/NORM Mode Switch
This is a red two-position locking toggle switch. When set to the ‘up’
position, the unit is Emergency mode, and when set to the ‘down’
position, the unit is in Normal mode. The legends are
interchangeable to allow customization. (Default – EMER, NORM.)
The switch is lockable to prevent accidental changing of the mode.
The switch must be lifted to release the lock.
For full information on Emergency and Normal Mode operation, see
sections 3.3 and 3.4 below.

JCP3-070 Control Panel with RX Volume Controls
Installation and Operating Manual
Rev A Page 10
(6) Multi-function (Transmit/ICS) Switch
This is a green two-position centre-off momentary toggle switch.
When in the default XMIT/ICS configuration, this switch acts as the
pilot’s ‘Press-to-talk’ (PTT) button. The unit will transmit on the
selected transceiver when the switch is held in the ‘up’ position, and
when held in the ‘down’ position, it will transmit on the intercom.
See section 3.3.6 below for Multi-function Switch operation.
Note: At installation, this switch may be configured to operate in default (XMIT/ICS) or alternative mode.
Check with your installing agency for confirmation of the operation of this switch. The legends are
interchangeable to allow customization.
(7) Music/Configuration Connector Cover (♫/io)
This is a music input that is compatible with most music players.
It accepts a 3 pole 3.5mm stereo plug with a slim diameter
connector housing.
(This connector may also used during installation to change
configuration settings for the remote audio controller.)
The port (♫/io) is protected by a urethane rubber cover, which can be
lifted upwards or rotated round (as shown) to provide access to the
port.
♫/io port
Port cover
CAUTION: If an unapproved connector or cable is used, damage to the unit or to any attached device may

(9) Transmit Selector
This is a rotary six-position control that is used to
select transmission via one of the six transceivers.
Each of the transmit selector positions is linked by a
white line to the corresponding transmit select
annunciator, transceiver switch and legend.
The appropriate annunciator will light green to show
which transceiver is selected for transmit - ‘COM4’ in
this example.
(10)VOX Threshold Control
This is a rotary knob that is used to select the VOX threshold of
the unit. See below.
When rotated fully cw, the threshold will be at maximum and
VOX ICS operation is disabled and ICS PTT input is required for
ICS operation.
When rotated fully ccw, the threshold will be at minimum (almost
live).
To adjust the unit for VOX (Voice activated) use, the VOX control should be set fully ccw and then slowly rotated cw to
the point where no intercom audio can be heard. The VOX control should be adjusted for proper operation according
to the ambient noise.
(11 CALL Annunciator
This is a customizable deadfront annunciator activated by
an external switch.
When enabled, it will illuminate when a call is received from
another user’s audio controller, or by a remote ‘call’ button
within the aircraft.
Note: Check with your installing agency for confirmation of the operation of this annunciator. The legends
are interchangeable to allow customization.
(12) ICS Volume Control
This is a rotary control used to adjust the volume of all
ICS audio to suit the ambient conditions. Rotating the
control fully cw gives rated level, and fully ccw reduces
the output to minimum level.

3.3 Normal Operation Mode
Note: Numbers in parentheses refer to the front panel controls shown in section 3.2.
The Audio System is in Normal mode when the front panel EMER / NORM switch (5) is in the NORM position and
suitable electrical power is supplied to the audio system (Control Panel with RX Volume Controls, and Remote Audio
Controller).
All operation described is for an Audio System consisting of a JCP3 Control Panel with RX Volume Controls and a
JRAC Remote Audio Controller.
3.3.1 Panel Lighting
The Control Panel with RX Volume Controls legends and annunciators will be illuminated and dim (when appropriate)
through the aircraft lighting buss.
3.3.2 Receiving
When the Audio System receives an incoming transmission on a transceiver or receiver that has been selected, either
by the white transceiver receive switches (1) or the transmit selector (8), the incoming audio will be directed to the
user’s phones.
The audio level of any incoming transmission will depend upon the level selected by the front panel RX volume control
(3). It will be muted if the unit is transmitting and muting of receive audio during transmit is enabled.
3.3.3 Transmitting (Transmit Operation)
To select a transceiver, rotate the Transmit Select Switch until it aligns with the line leading to the Transceiver Select
switch legend - see (1) - default legends COM 1 through COM 6. The corresponding Transmit Select annunciator will
illuminate.
When the user’s TX PTT is activated, the Audio System will transmit on the selected transceiver, and the deadfront
Transmit Annunciator (7) will illuminate ‘TX’. All MIC and sidetone audio will be routed to the user’s phones, and any
music will be muted for the duration of the transmission.
3.3.4 VOX Operation
A user’s MIC audio is routed to the ICS when the MIC audio level exceeds the VOX threshold.
A user’s MIC audio is disconnected from the ICS when the MIC audio level falls below the VOX threshold for 0.5 to 2
seconds. The VOX level is controlled by the VOX knob (9).
3.3.5 ICS Operation
ICS audio routed to the PHONES is the sum of all the MIC audio from users with ICS KEY active or with MIC audio
level exceeding the VOX Threshold level.
The ICS audio routed to the PHONES also includes the audio input on the ICS TIE from other audio controllers.
The sum of all the MIC audio from users with ICS KEY active or with MIC audio level exceeding the VOX Threshold
level is output on the ICS TIE line.
The ICS audio is muted during transmit (if selected via ProCS).
The ICS audio level at the phones is controlled by the ICS volume control (11).

3.3.6 Multi-Function (XMIT / ICS) Switch Operation
Note: At installation, this switch may be configured to operate in default or alternative mode. Check with
your installing agency for confirmation of the operation of this switch.
Default Operation
When in the default XMIT/ICS configuration, this switch acts as the pilot’s ‘Press-to-talk (PTT) button. The Audio
System will transmit on the selected transceiver when the switch is set to the ‘up’ position, and when set to the ‘down’
position, it will transmit on the intercom.
Alternative Operation
This switch may be configured to provide a ground signal to operate other equipment.
3.3.7 Music Operation
Music to the phones will be muted by incoming audio (ICS, Receive, Direct or Alert Audio) or if the Audio System is
transmitting. When the incoming audio has ended, the music will gradually return to the previous level.
3.4 Emergency Operation Mode
Emergency mode can be selected by the EMER / NORM switch on the Control Panel with RX Volume Controls.
Refer to the controlled device operating manual for information on operation during emergency mode.
