Interconnect plug
The headset interconnect plug connects the headset cable to a power source. The power source can be an installed connector in the aircraft’s control panel or an adapter cable connected to a portable battery pack. The interconnect plug is designed for quick connection and removal. To ensure correct pin alignment, the plug has a keyway.
Note: The illustrations below show the insertion of the headset inter- connect plug into the adapter cable. To insert the interconnect plug into the aircraft control panel, the same procedure would be used.
To insert: rotate the plug until the keyway is aligned; then insert until it locks in place.
To remove: gently pull back on the sleeve of the connector. This automatically unlocks the plug from the socket.
Microphone placement
For good communication clarity and noise rejection, locate the micro- phone housing so that it just brushes your lips.
