Prediction & Alerting (CPA) modes of operation.
The conventional GPWS modes of operation are as follows:
(a) Mode 1: Excessive Rate of Descent with respect to Terrain
When the CPA mode is inoperative, this mode provides, as defined in RTCA
DO -- 161A, a reactive medium--term caution and a reactive short-- term warning
when the current flight path is descending toward the terrain ahead of the aircraft
at an excessive rate. Figure 1--19 shows Mode 1 -- Excessive Descent Rate
Envelope.
