Operation - Panel Mount
• A velocity vector arrow may be appended to the right side of a
trafc symbol to indicate that the intruder aircraft is ascending (up
arrow) or descending (down arrow) faster than 500 fpm. No arrow
is shown for intruder aircraft in level ight, or for those moving
vertically slower than ±500 fpm, or for non-altitude-reporting
intruder aircraft.
• A two digit number may be appended to trafc symbols to indicate,
in hundreds of feet, the relative altitude of the intruder. For example
+03 means the intruder aircraft is 300 ft above ownship. A positive
data tag is displayed above the trafc symbol to emphasize that
the intruder aircraft is above your aircraft. A negative data tag is
displayed below the trafc symbol. If the intruder is at the same
altitude as the aircraft, “00” is displayed below the trafc symbol.
The data tag for a vertically out of range TA displays the relative
altitude of the intruder regardless of the current vertical display
mode. Only display data tags for altitude reporting aircraft are
shown. Non-altitude reporting aircraft are considered to be at the
same altitude as ownship.
• Tapping a trafc symbol generates a circle around it indicating that
the trafc symbol is selected. In addition the following is displayed:
Selected Trafc Info Button, Selected Trafc ID, and if enabled the
Selected Trafc Ground Speed (GS). Tap the trafc symbol again
to remove the circle and data.
• When TAS functionality is enabled and in installations with no
heading source, the TAS trafc (referenced to heading) and ADS-B
trafc (referenced to track) are displayed simultaneously. The
ADS-B targets will therefore appear skewed by the crab angle of
the aircraft.
• When TAS functionality is enabled and in installations with no
heading source, low speed operations (< 7 knots) will result in a
removal of the ADS-B tracks because ownship track can not be
adequately determined. TAS Only text will appear on the display if
TAS is enabled. This can happen in both rotorcraft hover operations
and when xed wing/rotorcraft aircraft are on-ground.
See Table 2-2 for a list and description of trafc symbols used by the
panel mount unit.
