Garmin G5000 - No Surfacewatch Runway Position Data; Surfacewatch Fail; Surfacewatch Inhibited

Model 560XL Section III – Operating Procedures
Abnormal Procedures
190-02313-03 Rev. 8 Textron Aviation Citation 560XL
FAA Approved 3-57
 SURFACEWATCH INHIBITED
During certain flight operations, there may be a desire by the crew to inhibit the SurfaceWatch
system, although it is considered abnormal to do so. Use the following procedures to inhibit the
SurfaceWatch system:
1. GTC Home screen – Utilities – Setup – Avionics Settings
a. Alerts Tab – SELECT.
b. SurfaceWatch Inhibit button – SELECT.
Procedure completed
NOTE
After inhibiting SurfaceWatch, the following will post as a message on both GTCs:
SURFACEWATCH INHIBITED
SurfaceWatch will remain inhibited until manually un-inhibited by the crew, or a
power-cycle of the system. After a shutdown of the G5000 system, SurfaceWatch will
return to its normal state of operation and will not be inhibited.
 SURFACEWATCH FAIL
If any of the required inputs for SurfaceWatch operation are failed, invalid, or unavailable (such as
GPS position or heading), SurfaceWatch will be inoperative until the required parameters are
restored. If SurfaceWatch has failed, the following will post as a message on both GTCs:
“SURFACEWATCH FAIL One or more inputs invalid.”
SurfaceWatch will automatically return to its normal state of operation without crew action once the
required inputs are restored.
Procedure completed
 NO SURFACEWATCH RUNWAY POSITION DATA
There are certain runways at various worldwide airports that do not have valid position data for the
SurfaceWatch system to use. If such a runway is entered into the system for either takeoff or
landing via the PERF – Takeoff Data or PERF – Landing Data pages, the following will post as a
message on both GTCs:
“NO RUNWAY POSITION DATA Inhibit SurfaceWatch. No runway position data.”
SurfaceWatch should then be inhibited according to the SURFACEWATCH INHIBIT procedures
outlined above. Failure to do so will result in nuisance TWY TAKEOFF or TWY LANDING warnings
as applicable. After performing the takeoff or landing with SurfaceWatch inhibited, the system
should be un-inhibited as soon as practical so that functionality will be restored for the remainder of
the flight.
