Operation
A “Traffic Failed” is displayed if both ADS-B and TAS (optional) are
failed. “Traffic Unavailable” is displayed if ADS-B In has no heading
or track available and TAS (if installed) is in standby. See Figure 2-8
for an example of Traffic Screens. Refer to the Functional Description
below for detailed information.
Traffic Screen
The traffic screen has a black background. Transponder Mode can be
set to Standby (SBY), On (ON), or Altitude (ALT).
Ownship Symbol
The ownship is shown as a white triangle on the traffic display.
Orientation. When ownship direction source is not valid the ownship
symbol is a white circle with a black inset.
Traffic Symbols
The traffic symbols indicate the approximate range, relative bearing,
and relative altitude of intruder aircraft. Traffic data with directional
data for intruder aircraft are shown as arrowheads. Traffic data without
directional data for intruder aircraft are shown as diamonds.
A solid amber circle (or with a black filled arrowhead) is a Traffic
Advisory (TA) that represents an intruder aircraft that may pose a
collision threat. (A semi-circle at the edge of the display represents
an off-scale TA).
Traffic Advisory symbols only appear on NGT-9000+ or NGT-
9000R+ that include the optional TAS feature. TAS functionality
also have aural TA warnings (“traffic”, “traffic”) that is annunciated
over the cockpit speaker or headset. NOTE: Optionally available
extended call-outs including the clock position and relative attitude
(10 o’clock 5 miles...). This is a configurable option selected at the
time of installation.
A solid diamond or arrowhead is a Proximity Advisory (PA) that
represents traffic that is close but does not pose an immediate
collision threat.
A hollow diamond or arrowhead indicates Other Traffic (OT) that
represents traffic that does not pose an immediate threat.
Directional intruders are oriented such that symbols point in the
direction of their reported heading or track, relative to own aircraft
direction.
