The Telex Stratus 50-D is a medium-weight, active noise-reduction headset with an amplified, noise-canceling, electret microphone. It provides up to 25+dB digital tonal noise reduction of engine and blade noise, up to 15+dB of analog broadband noise reduction, and 29+dB of passive noise reduction. At 90 Hz the accumulative total is 50+dB of noise reduction.
Microphone Bias Voltage Requirements The boom microphone operates on a voltage of 8-16 VDC. Output voltage is 50 ohms (Designed for radio input impedances from 50-600 ohms). If you are uncertain whether your avionics equipment meets this requirement, consult the avionics equipment manufacturer. Headset Power The headset will operate with either 4 AA batteries or panel power from 8- 32 Vdc.
Headset Operation 1. Connect the headset as shown in Figure 4. Set the MONO/STEREO headphone switch to match the type of sound system in your aircraft. If the headset is set for stereo and the intercom is set for mono, sound will only come out of one earcup.

Headset Operation (Cont.) Headband Size Adjustment To adjust the headband size, move the earcup sliders up or down on the headband (Figure 9). Size is properly adjusted when the earcups are centered over the ears. It is important to adjust both sides of the headband the same to keep the headband and pad properly centered over the head.
Stratus Controls Power Switch the ON/OFF button to turn the Stratus on or off. Green LED indicates power on. Low Battery Red LED indicates 20% or less battery life remaining. Microphone Gain Adjustment The microphone gain has been factory-adjusted to the nominal level required for FAA certification, and it should normally not require readjustment.
Ear Cushion Replacement To remove an old ear cushion, simply grasp it and pull it off the earcup. To install a new ear cushion, start at the top of the earcup. Place the flap on the back of the ear cushion over the lip along the top of the earcup. Then, pull the bottom of the ear cushion down over the lip at the bottom of the earcup.
