KMA28
Audio Amplifier/Intercom/Marker Beacon Receiver
006-10565-0000 Page 1-2 Rev. 0, Sept. 2000
A six-station voice activated (VOX) intercom is included in the KMA 28. This system
has the advanced IntelliVox® circuitry that eliminates manual adjustments. The system
contains six separate VOX mic circuits, and only opens the microphone channel in use.
The intercom system incorporates pilot isolate and crew modes, two stereo (or mono de-
pending on unit) music inputs with "Soft Mute," and LED indicators for swap and trans-
mit indications. Intercom control is through front panel-mounted knob and 3 position
mode switch. A single volume controls intercom level for the pilot and copilot. Passenger
headphone volume is factory set, and adjusted in flight with headset-mounted volume
controls. Passenger volume control is further adjustable through screwdriver access in the
top of the unit. Intercom squelch is automatic.
A 3-light Marker Beacon receiver is integrated in the KMA 28. This provides the neces-
sary Marker Beacon lights and audio indications necessary for an Instrument Landing
System (ILS) approach.
