Range Rings
The range rings are oriented around the ownship. A range indicator
is shown outside the upper left corner of the outer most ring. Bearing
indicators are shown on the 2 nm range ring. The range ring setting is
controlled by the zoom buttons.
The Traffic screen has the following display range with additional inner
rings as noted:
Range 40 has 40 nm and 24 nm range rings.
Range 24 has 24 nm and 12 nm range rings.
Range 12 has 12 nm and 6 nm range rings.
Range 6 has 6 nm and 2 nm range rings.
Range 2 has only the 2 nm range ring.
Range 1 has only the 1 nm range ring.
Range 0.5 has only the 0.5 nm range ring.
Traffic Altitude Mode
The available Traffic Altitude Modes are shown on a Toggle button
with green text. The altitude ranges are in relation to the ownship. A
description of each mode is detailed below:
Normal (NRM): Traffic is displayed from altitudes of between
-2,700 and +2,700 ft. This mode is typically used during the
enroute phase of flight to reduce screen clutter.
Above (ABV): Traffic is displayed from altitudes of between
+9,000 and -2,700 ft. This mode is typically used during takeoff.
Below (BLW): Traffic is displayed from altitudes of between
+2,700 and -9,000 ft. This mode is typically used during approach
and landing.
Unrestricted (UNR): Traffic is displayed from altitudes of between
+9,900 and -9,900 ft. This mode is typically used during the
enroute phase of flight to show all aircraft within the entire
detection area.
The Altitude Mode button is available only when the status of the
aircraft is In-Air. When the aircraft status is On-Ground the altitude
mode button is replaced with the TFC button.
See Figure 2-8 for a graphic representation of the Traffic Display
Modes and Traffic Zones.
