Operating the installed headset (cont.)
Volume control using multiple headsets
When an aircraft has more than one headset connected to its audio
system, the pilot in command should adjust the volume of his/her Bose
Aviation Headset X as follows:
1. Turn off active noise reduction by setting the power
switch to OFF.
2. Set the volume on both earcups to maximum.
3. Adjust the aircraft intercom or radio master volume to hear
communications clearly. This should be done in noise.
Adjust the headset volume controls only to balance the
volume between the left and right earcups.
4. Turn the headset ON.
5. Turn down the aircraft intercom or radio master volume to
the desired listening level.
After the pilot’s headset volume is adjusted, passengers may adjust
their headset volume to the preferred level.
Control module mounting clip
The control module mounting clip permits attachment to the users
clothing, safety harness, or aircraft door pockets. Do not attempt to
clip onto surfaces greater than
1
/

-inch thick.
Aircraft panel connector
For permanent installation of the headset, the cable is installed into the
aircraft. A connector and 6-foot wiring harness are packaged with the
headset. The 6-foot wiring harness is a self-latching, precision de-
signed, quick-connector for panel mounting in the aircraft. The con-
nector is mechanically keyed to ensure proper mating.
Additional connectors and wiring harnesses are available from Bose.
To order, call the Bose Aviation Headset Department.
Note:
The aircraft panel connector must be mounted by mechanics
qualified to perform this type of avionics installation into the aircraft
being used.
