The PFD will display trac symbols prioritized in the order received from the
congured trac sensor. The PFD includes three threat levels using TCAS symbology;
Trac Advisory (amber circle), Proximity Advisory (cyan diamond), and Other Trac
(hollow cyan diamond). All trac symbols within the current display range and the
selected altitude lter are shown relative to the Ownship Symbol (Figure 4-128).
The Trac Advisory System (TAS) use an airborne interrogator with a half-second
update rate; coverage follows the aircraft. The Trac Information Service (TIS) system
use a GTX 330 transponder with a ve-second update rate; coverage is limited to
specic areas listed in the Aeronautical Information Manual(AIM).
WARNING
Do not rely on the PFD as the sole source of data for collision avoidance. It is the pilot’s
responsibility to visually acquire other aircraft for safe ight. Maneuver your aircraft based
only on ATC guidance or positive acquisition of conicting trac. Trac information is:
• Provided as a proximity warning only
• Intended to assist the pilot in the visual acquisition of other aircraft
• Not intended to provide recommended avoidance maneuvers
• Not provided for aircraft that are not transponder equipped, experiencing a
transponder failure, or out of radar coverage
