2. CABIN INTERPHONE.
2.1. General.
The cabin interphone system provides communication between :
- Cabin attendants,
- Cabin attendants and the flight crew,
- Cabin attendants and the service crew.
This system also provides a means of interfacing with the service interphone
and passenger address systems.
Single-digit, touch-tone calling from each handset and from the pilots call
panel is provided to direct calls to specific stations.
Handsets are located at all cabin attendant stations and the pilots aft aisle
stand. (Pilots handset is a customer option).
When a cabin location is called from one of the cabin interphone handsets or
the pilots call panel, a pink call light and a high/low chime are activated at the
called station.
When the flight compartment is called from a cabin handset, a blue location
indicator light is activated on the pilots call panel and a high chime is
generated.
When an ALERT call is made from any handset, the pink lights at all
attendants stations will flash continuously at one-second intervals.
At the same time, the high/low chimes will be repeated three times.
The pink lights at each station will cease flashing as that stations handset is
taken off the hook.
In the flight compartment, an ALERT call will turn on the blue ALERT call light
and sound a single high chime.

3. SERVICE INTERPHONE.
3.1. General.
Purpose.
The service interphone system provides the means for communications
between various service interphone jacks, between these jacks and the
attendant handsets, and between the jacks and the flight crew audio selector
panels.
System Description.
Power is supplied from the 28v dc battery bus through the CAB/SERVICE
circuit breaker on the P11 panel.
Interior jacks are connected together through mixing circuits and amplifiers
in the audio accessory unit. Exterior jacks are connected through the same
circuits and an on/off switch on the P61 panel.
The flight crew can communicate with the service interphone stations by
pressing the appropriate microphone and listen switches on their audio
selector panels, and pushing the interphone tie switch on the pilots call panel.
The cabin attendants can communicate with the service interphone stations by
picking up their handsets and talking.

4. CREW CALL.
4.1. General.
Purpose.
The ground crew call system provides the alerts required to initiate
communication between ground crew personnel and flight deck personnel.
This system is also used to alert ground personnel in case of critical equipment
cooling and power failures.
System Major Components.
The ground crew call system is made up of the following major units :
- The flight deck call switch on the APU remote control panel P40.
- The pilots call panel on P5.
- The ground call horn in the nose wheel well.
System Interfaces.
The system receives cooling and power failure information from the
equipment and cooling indicator card located in the electrical system card file
(P50).
The system outputs a chime-initiate signal to the chime generator, located in
the bell chime unit P51, and horn on voltage to the horn located inside the
nose wheel well.
Flight Compartment-to-Ground Call Features.
Pressing the GND CALL switch on the pilots call panel sounds a loud horn in
the nose wheel well area as long as the switch is pressed.

Purpose.
The passenger address system allows the flight crew and flight attendants to
make announcements to the passengers.
Speakers in the passenger compartment broadcast audio throughout the
passenger and attendant areas.
System Description.
Audio inputs into the system can be announcements from the pilots, purser or
attendants.
Entertainment audio can be boarding music or audio from the video system.
Discrete inputs enable chimes inside the amplifier to generate tones to alert
passengers and attendants to changes in no smoking and seat belt signs or to
cabin interphone system alerts.
Other discrete inputs automatically control system gain to increase passenger
address volume if an engine is operating or the cabin oxygen system is
deployed.
The audio output from the passenger address amplifier is routed to speakers in
the passenger service units, lavatories, and to attendant speakers in the galleys
and attendant stations.
The audio output also goes to the listen switches in the audio selector panels
for passenger address sidetone returning to the flight interphone system.
The amplifier has a test switch to allow system testing.

7. HF COMMUNICATION SYSTEM.
7.1. General.
A system consists of a control panel, a transceiver, an antenna coupler and an
antenna.
Power on-off, frequency and mode selection are controlled from the control
panel.
The system receives microphone audio and key signals from the interphone
system.
The transceiver generates the rf signal to be transmitted or demodulates the
received rf signals.
The coupler automatically matches the antenna to the transceiver. Received
audio (SSB or AM) is routed to the interphone system.
Unsquelched AM audio is routed to the SELCAL system.
Keying for transmission is recorded by the flight data recorder, sent to the
SELCAL system for decoder reset, and sent to the FMC for crew alertness
monitoring.

8. PES - GENERAL.
Passenger Entertainment System (PES).
The PES provides selectable recorded entertainment audio at each passenger
seat location.
This system provides a priority interrupt capability that enables a passenger
address override to occur simultaneously on all audio channels.
The tape reproducer provides 12 channels of audio, 10 channels directly to the
main multiplexer and 2 channels directly to the forward zone multiplexer. The
same 2 channels are sent to the mid and aft zone multiplexers through the
zone driver.
The main mux coverts the audio from analog into digital, multiplexes the 10
channels and outputs them serially to the zone multiplexers.
The zone multiplexers convert the 2 channels of tape reproducer audio and 2
channels of video system audio from analog into digital and multiplexes these
channels with the 10 channels from the main mux.
The combined signal is sent serially to each seat electronics box (SEB).
The SEB demultiplexes the signal, converts the signal from digital to analog
and supplies the audio to the passenger headset as selected by the passenger
control unit (PCU).
Passenger address announcements are input to the zone multiplexers and
multiplexed onto all 14 channels.

Zone Multiplexers.
Ten channels (tracks) of digitized audio from the main multiplexer are
processed with other audio inputs in the forward, mid and aft zone
multiplexers.
They are multiplexed with the remaining tape reproducer tracks and two audio
inputs from the video system control unit.
PA audio, when present, replaces all other input audio.
A 50 ohm termination plug on the aft zone multiplexer terminates the
multiplexer-to-multiplexer audio lines.

Operation.
Each CTD acts as the interface unit between corresponding columns of PSUDs
and SEBs.
A termination plug is connected to the last PSUD and SEB in each column.
Each PSUD controls reading lights (one per passenger seat) and an attendant
call (row call) light (one per seat group).
Each SEB receives inputs from two, three or four PCUs.
The center columns may have three or four PCUs, but the outboard columns
have only two.
Each zone has blue master call lights for both the left side and the right side of
the zone.
Chime outputs provide input to the associated electronic chime unit to alert
the attendant to passenger calls.
Attendant Call Function.
Each passenger calls an attendant by pushing the attendant call button on
their passenger control unit.
This causes the PSUD row call light and the appropriate master call light to
come on.
The lights may be turned off by pushing the PCU reset switch (cancelling the
call) or pushing the appropriate MASTER CALL RESET switch on the forward
attendants panel.

ENTERTAINMENT Section.
Switches in this section control PES/PSS power and boarding music.
- The BRD MUSIC VOLUME knob adjusts the volume level of the boarding
music.
- The CHANNEL SELECT knob selects the boarding music channel to be
played.
- The PASS ENT SYST PWR switch controls power application to the PES
components. To use the PES, the PSS must also be on.
