Antenna Jack
This SMA jack accepts thee supplied flexible
antenna, or another antenna designed to provide
50 Ω impedance on the Aircraft Communication
Band.
MIC/EAR Jack
You may connect the CT-60 Headset Cable or
the (optional) MH-44
A4B
Speaker/Microphone
to this jack.
Never connect the any Speaker/Micro-
phone that is not recommended by the
manufacturer. Because these jack connections are
unique using a Speaker/Microphone that is not

When an external 12-Volt DC power source is
available, you may connect the E-DC-5B Exter-
nal DC Cable here. Do not connect any wire to
this jack if that wire is connected directly to a
28-Volt DC source. Connecting the VXA-100 di-
rectly to a source which exceeds 15.0 Volts DC
will result in damage to the unit.

the label determines the way in which you acti-
vate the function:

of the keys (activated by simply pressing the key
momentarily).

tions of the keys (activated by pressing the

beled to the left, while the secondary functions
(yellow) are labeled to the right. These functions
