Abnormal Operation; Stuck Microphone; Com Tuning Failure; Audio Panel Fail-Safe Operation - Garmin G950 Pilot's Manual

4.7 AbNORMAL OPERATION

Abnormal operation of the G950 includes equipment failures of the G950 components and failure of associated
equipment, including switches and external devices.

STUCk MICROPHONE

If the push-to-talk (PTT) Key becomes stuck, the COM transmitter stops transmitting after 35 seconds of
continuous operation. An alert appears on the PFD to advise the crew of a stuck microphone.
The COM1 MIC or COM2 MIC Key Annunciator on the Audio Panel flashes as long as the PTT Key remains
stuck.

COM TUNING FAILURE

In case of a COM system tuning failure, the emergency frequency (121.500 MHz) is automatically tuned in
the radio in which the tuning failure occurred. Depending on the failure mode, a red X may appear on the
frequency display.

AUDIO PANEL FAIL-SAFE OPERATION

If there is a failure of the Audio Panel, a fail-safe circuit connects the pilot' s headset and microphone directly
to the COM1 transceiver. Audio will not be available on the speaker.

PFD FAILURE (REVERSIONARY MODE)

The red DISPLAY BACKUP Button selects the Reversionary Mode. See the System Overview Section for
