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-N01 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-N01 illuminated legends are field replaceable. For further information, refer to the ‘Legend Replacement’
document in Appendix A of this manual.
2.4.5Post 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 1 and 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-N01. 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.

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)
(2) 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.)
(3) 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.
(4) 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

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).
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.
Refer to the controlled device operating manual for information on operation during emergency mode.
