FAA APPROVED ROTORCRAFT FLIGHT MANUAL SUPPLEMENT
For GARMIN GTX 330 MODE S TRANSPONDER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Gannin GTX 330 panel mounted Mode S Transponder is a radio transmitter and recei•
that operates on radar frequencies, receiving ground radar, or TCAS interrogations at
1 C
MHz and transmitting a coded response of pulses to ground-based radar on a frequency
1090 MHz. The Gannin GTX 330 is equipped with IDENT capability that activates 1
Special Position Identification (SPI) pulse for 18 seconds. Mode S transmit/receive capabi
also requires
1090 MHz transmitting and 1030 MHz receiving for Mode S functions.
In addition to displaying the code, reply symbol and mode of operation, the Gannin GTX 3
screen will display pressure altitude, density altitude, temperature and timer functio1
depending on equipment connections and configuration selection. The unit also features
altitude monitor, Traffic lnfonnation Service (TIS) traffic advisories and flight timers. A voi
or tone audio output announces altitude deviation, TIS traffic advisory and countdown tirr
expiration.
LIMITATIONS
Display of TIS traffic infonnation is advisory only and does not relieve the pilot responsibil
to "see and avoid" other aircraft. Aircraft maneuvers
shall not be predicated on the T
displayed infonnation.
Display of TIS traffic infonnalion
does not constitute a TCAS I or TCAS II collision avoidan,
system as required
14 CFR Part 121 or part 135 .
rrtle 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) state that "When an Air Traffic Conti
(ATC) clearance has been obtained, no pilot-in-command (PIC) may deviate from th
clearance, except in an emergency, unless he obtains an amended clearance." Trafl
infonnation provided by the TIS up-link does not relieve the PIC of this responsibility.
