DA 62 AFM Airplane Description
7.10.3 WARNING, CAUTION AND ADVISORY MESSAGES
Crew Alerting System (CAS)
The G1000 crew alerting system (CAS) is designed to provide visual and aural alerts to
the flight crew. Alerts are divided into three levels as follows:
WARNING
CAUTION
ADVISORY
Crew alerts will appear in the alerts window on the PFD. In this window, warnings will
appear at the top, followed by cautions and advisories, respectively. Within the criticality
levels, messages will appear from newest (top) to oldest (bottom).
At the low right corner of the display, there is a MSG (message) soft key. The MSG key
provides two functions in the CAS:
1. Pressing the MSG key acknowledges a new master warning/caution/advisory
indication.
2. An additional MSG key press with no master alert indication active will open a pop-up
auxiliary flight display (AFD) page that contains information for all active alerts.
This structure allows the crew to scroll through all system alerts if the alerts window
overflows. This approach displays the most critical alerts close to the pilot’s primary field
of view at all times, with the option of allowing lower criticality alerts to overflow and be
accessible from the pop-up AFD page/window.
