WEATHER OPERATION
Flight Information Service Broadcast (FIS-B) service is available
only from a ground station that is in range to aircraft equipped with
UAT receivers. The FIS-B broadcast provides a graphical and textual
display of weather and aeronautical information. Alternate weather
displays and PED’s may show the weather data differently than what
is shown in this pilot’s guide. Refer to the display operation manual or
PED application information for details.
The FIS-B data is typically shown in three different ways: Graphical
weather, Graphical Winds & Temp Aloft, and Textual. This information
is detailed below. The map orientation is typically shown as north up.
Figure 2-13: Weather Map
FIS-B Graphical Weather Application
The Graphical Weather Application is located in the second screen
position as indicated by the Application Indicator. The Graphic
Application is a simplified moving map with depiction of ownship and
the ability to selectively overlay graphical FIS-B products such as
AIRMET, NEXRAD, TFR, METAR, and SIGMET. See Figure 2-13.

This indicator is located at the bottom center of the screen and is

a ADS-B ground station).
The indicator is also shown if a problem exists with the NGT-9000
System. See the troubleshooting section.
