Alert Hot Key

Traffic alerts go one step further than the Advisory hot key

feature and will automatically bring up the Function Menu

showing the Skywatch/TCAD function. A single key press

can then be used to switch the display to the Traffic

function. The Alert hot key feature will automatically clear

when the traffic alert condition no longer exists.

Traffic Alert Pop-Up

When a Traffic Alert occurs, the system can automatically

switch to the Traffic function and the zoom level will be

adjusted to view the traffic. The Alert Hot Key or Traffic

Alert Pop-Up mode option is selectable in the Traffic

menu and only occurs when the display is set to some

function other than Traffic.

Symbology

Traffic shown with an amber filled circle corresponds

to traffic generating an alerting condition

· Traffic shown with a cyan filled diamond corresponds

to traffic generating an advisory condition

Traffic shown with a cyan open diamond is

considered “other traffic”

Traffic is shown with either the relative or absolute

altitude indicated above or below the target symbol. If the

traffic is below or equal to your ownship altitude, the label

is shown below the symbol. If the traffic is above your

ownship altitude, the label is shown above the symbol. For

traffic with no altitude information, the label will be

shown as dashes (---).
