Gen eral De scrip tion The Telex Airman ANR™500 Active Noise Reduction headset combines design features of a lightweight headset with the advanced techniques of electronic noise reduction. The result is a comfortable light-weight headset that provides good electronic reduction of low frequency ambient noise, while the cushion design provides good passive reduction of high frequency ambient noise.
HEADSET OPERATION 1. Connect the headset as shown in Figure 2. 2. Rotate the entire boom to wear the microphone on either the right or left side of the head. 3. With the Airman ANR 500 headband resting securely on the top of the head, check that the ear cups are centered over the ears.
Microphone Gain Adjustment The microphone gain has been factory-adjusted to the nominal level required for normal radio operation and should normally not require adjustment. If needed, adjustment by a qualified avionics technician is recommended. To access the microphone gain, insert a small phillips head screwdriver through the access hole in the headset (refer to Figure 4).
