OPERATOR’S MANUAL
CMA-9000 FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
TCAS MODE [4R]: Displays and allows section of one of the following TCAS mode options: STANDBY, TA/RA
and TA. Selection of TA/RA or TA will automatically force the ATC MODE (4L) to NORMAL. If the ATC MODE
(4L) reverts to STANDBY or ALT_RPTG_OFF, then the TCAS mode (4R) will automatically revert to STANDBY.
EMERGENCY [5R]: Available when the configured emergency code is not 0000, otherwise the field is blank.
Pressing this soft key will transmit the configured emergency code to the transponder and force the transponder
mode (4L) to NORMAL. When pressed, the font changes to large inverse green as long as the transponder is
active. Selection of EMERGENCY will also initiate the IDENT function (refer to [5L] for additional details).
When an ATC hijack pushbutton is installed in the cockpit, the crew can activate it and, as a result, the FMS
radio management function activates the configured ATC hijack code (default is 7500).
