TAWS OPERATION
The Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) is an optional
function that is set up during installation. The TAWS function
continuously monitors the aircraft’s position, altitude, speed, track, and
phase of ight and compares the information to the terrain database
loaded during installation. Terrain and obstacle hazards are indicated
by cautions and warnings using screen annunciators, aural terrain
alerts, and discrete alert lamps. See Figure 2-27 and the descriptions
below for details.
The details for the TAWS Screen at the beginning of this section is for
the Panel Mount version of the Lynx NGT-9000. The instructions for
TAWS Audio Alerts (page 2-64) and Conditions to Trigger Alerts or
Callouts (page 2-65 to page 2-73) are for both the Panel and Remote
Mount versions of the Lynx NGT-9000.
