This extensive line of Multi-User audio controllers offer a wide range of features optimized to fit the widest possible crosssection of aircraft applications. Available in either single or dual channel configurations, these controllers are used in all types of helicopters as well as aircraft. Some models
provide users with the ability to customize controllers to meet unique needs and missions.
Single Channel
The AMS43 series are standard controllers providing transmit and intercom (ICS) capabilities for pilot and co-pilot plus intercom for passengers. “Auto-receive” function is standard along with selectable receive switches for COM and NAV sources. An ICS Tie line is provided to allow multiple controllers to be
networked together. The AA95, AA96 and AA97 controllers are customized derivatives of the AMS43 and can be configured to meet customer specific requirements.
Dual Channel
Designed for special mission applications, the AMS42, AMS44 and 311 have dual radio controls to independently select radio transmit and receiver audio. Dual channel configuration provides independent radio control for pilot and co-pilot in a single controller plus intercom support for crew and passengers.
The AMS42 and AMS44 have transmit capability for 5 COMs with “Auto-receive” function. The AMS44 has receiver monitoring switching for each COM plus 5 NAVs. The AMS42 has receiver monitoring switches for the first 4 COMs. COM 5 is set up for auto-receive only. NAV inputs are selectable
by internal dip switches. The AA92H and AA94 series provide the ability to customize controllers for specific needs and missions.
Intercom
An integral intercom features one of the highest headphone outputs in the industry, with up to 500 mW per channel. The intercom system is designed to achieve the best possible intercommunications in noisy aircraft
environments. Voice activated squelch (VOX) uses voice-tracking circuit that combines low noise audio processing with selective voiceband squelch triggering for effective handsfree ICS operation. Dual channel controllers provide a Pilot Isolate mode to allow the pilot to separate from the intercom system for complete isolation.
Direct Inputs
Two direct inputs accommodate functions such as Rad Alt, GPS Alerts, Low Rotor, or Telephone ringer.
Emergency Mode
Front panel selectable emergency mode switches the pilot’s (and co-pilot’s in Dual Channel models) headphones directly to the selected radios. Mic control is maintained via the transmit select switch for each available radio.
