    On, Off, and Failsafe Operation The GMA 340 is powered off when the left small knob (figure 3-1, item 5) is rotated fully CCW into the detent. To turn the unit on rotate the knob clockwise past the click. The knob then functions as the pilot’s ICS volume control.
  • Page 25: Split Com

    Com Swap Function The GMA 340 allows the use of a remote mounted switch (typically on the yoke) to alternately transfer the active microphone back and forth between COM 1 and COM 2. The remote switch should be a momentary type, connected between J2 pin 20 (SWAP*) and J2 pin 21 (SWAP return).
  • Page 26: Pa Function

    3.1.10 Auxiliary Entertainment Inputs The GMA 340 and 340H provide two stereo entertainment inputs: MUSIC 1 and MUSIC 2. The 340 Dual ADF has only MUSIC 1. MUSIC 1 is soft-muted during all aircraft radio activity and normally during ICS activity.
  • Page 27: 3.1.12 Mono/Stereo Headset

    Use of a monaural headset in a stereo jack shorts the right headset channel output to ground. A person listening on a monaural headset will hear only the left channel from the GMA 340 in both ears. If a monaural headset is used at one of the passenger positions, any other passenger listening on a stereo headset will hear audio in their left ear only, unless their headset has a stereo/mono switch and it is set for mono.
  • Page 28: 3.1.13 Marker Beacon Receiver

    (see figure 2-3). The GMA 340’s marker beacon receiver controls are located on the left side of the front panel [(1) through (4)]. The SENS button (4) selects either high or low sensitivity as indicated by the HI or LO LED being lit. Low sensitivity is used on ILS approaches while high sensitivity allows operation over airway markers or to get an earlier indication of nearing the outer marker during an approach.
