Table 4-10 Failsafe Warning Audio; Table 4-11 Music Inputs - Garmin GMA 245 Installation Manual

4.6.5 Failsafe Warning Audio
Failsafe audio is audio from another device that is heard when the GMA is in failsafe mode (power off or
unit failure) and is desired to be heard in addition to the COM audio.
Pin Connector

14 J2402
CAUTION
During failsafe mode both FAILSAFE WARN AUDIO IN HI and COM 1 AUDIO INPUT
are connected to the PILOT HEADSET LEFT OUTPUT. When in failsafe the output of the
COM 1 radio and the output of the device connected to FAILSAFE WARN AUDIO IN HI
will become shorted together, potentially causing damage or interference. If the
FAILSAFE WARN AUDIO IN HI is used, it may be necessary to install summing resistors
in series between these sources and the inputs to the audio panel to protect the outputs
from damage.
4.6.6 Music Inputs
The MUSIC LO signals are not the same reference as other ground connections. The MUSIC LO signals
should be used as part of a differential pair (along with the MUSIC RIGHT and MUSIC LEFT signals). If
the MUSIC LO signal is tied to a ground connection, the music will contain noise, and the audio quality
will be degraded.
