3.1.5

Split Com (Not Applicable to Dual ADF)

Pressing the COM 1/2 button (15) activates the split com function. While this mode is active, COM 2 is

dedicated solely to the copilot as a MIC/audio source while COM 1 is dedicated to the pilot as a MIC/audio

source. The pilot can still listen to COM 3, NAV 1, NAV 2, DME, ADF, and MKR. The pilot and copilot can

simultaneously transmit in this mode, the pilot transmitting over COM 1 and the copilot transmitting over COM 2.

The SPLIT COM mode is cancelled by pressing the COM 1/2 button a second time.

While in the split com mode the copilot may make PA announcements while the pilot continues using COM 1

independently. When the PA button is pressed after the split com mode is activated, the copilot's mic is output

over the cabin speaker when keyed. A second press of the PA button returns the copilot to normal split com

operation.

If the com radios in the installation utilize a "transmit interlock" system, the split

com function may require that this feature is enabled. Refer to the radio's

installation manual for guidance.

guarantees regarding the suitability of the split com feature in a given

installation.

3.1.6

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). Pressing the remote switch will have no

affect if COM 3 is the active transceiver or when split com is in use.

3.1.7

Aircraft Radios & Navigation

Pressing NAV 1, NAV 2, DME, ADF (16), or MKR (2) (see MKR beacon operation) selects that audio source. A

second button press deselects the audio source.

In addition, the GMA 340 provides inputs for an unswitched aircraft radio (TEL RINGER) and an unmuted,

unswitched aircraft radio (ALT WRN).

3.1.8

Pressing the SPKR button (12) selects Aircraft radios over the cabin speaker. The speaker output is muted when a

COM microphone is keyed. Speaker level is adjustable through an access hole in the top of the unit (see figure 2-

3).
