AVIONICS SUPPORT EQUIPMENT

Various avionics support equipment is installed in the airplane, and
includes a microphone/speaker, mic/phone jacks, avionics cooling fans,
12VDC power outlets, an auxiliary audio input jack, and control surface
static dischargers. Description and operation of radio equipment is
covered in the Garmin CRG or Section 9 of this POH/AFM.

AVIONICS COOLING FAN

Two DC electric deck skin fans mounted on the underside of the cowl
deck draw warm air from behind the instrument panel to maintain
proper operating temperatures. In addition, three DC electric fans blow
air directly onto the display heat sinks for prolonged equipment life. The
deck skin fans will operate when the BATTERY switch is ON and the
AVIONICS No. 1 power switch is ON.

MICROPHONE-HEADSET INSTALLATIONS

Radio communications are accomplished by the use of a hand-held
microphone and the airplane speaker, or by aviation-style headsets.
The hand-held microphone stows in a hanger on the front of the
pedestal and plugs into a mic jack located on the right side of the
pedestal. It includes an integral push-to-talk button. The airplane
speakers are located above the pilot's and copilot's positions in the
cabin headliner.
The headsets plug into microphone (MIC) and headset (PHONE) jacks
located on the left side of the instrument panel for the pilot and the right
side of the instrument panel for the copilot. Push-to-talk switches for the
headsets are mounted on the control wheels.
Audio is controlled by the individual audio selector switches and
adjusted for volume level by using the selected receiver volume
controls. The system is designed so that microphones are voice
activated, with transmission over the COM radios controlled by the
push-to-talk switches.
