TRAFFIC FUNCTION
CAUTION
The Zaon XRX and other similar traffic receivers are not
recommended as a substitute for proper traffic scanning
procedures as listed in the FAA Airman’s Information Manual
and under the “See and Avoid” concept presented in FAA
AC90-48C. The display of traffic targets on AV8OR ACE from
these receivers is intended to be used as an additional tool to
determine potential traffic threats and help the pilot to locate
other aircraft while in VFR conditions.
Make sure you fully understand the operations and
limitations of the Zaon XRX and other similar traffic receivers
before you use them with the AV8OR. Abrupt changes in the
control of the aircraft due to a Traffic Alert should be avoided
unless positive identification with the traffic is made, or you
have been ordered to do so by the Air Traffic Controller. The
FAA, their representatives, as well as published airspace
regulations, always supersede any indication given by the
Zaon XRX and other similar other traffic receivers.
HARDWARE ACCESSORY
The AV8OR ACE unit interfaces to the Zaon XRX traffic receiver.
The traffic receiver is used to receive the traffic information which is
then displayed on the screen.
See chapter 7 “Connection to An External Traffic Source” on page 7-
18 for directio
ns on how to connect AV8OR ACE to a traffic receiver.
When the Zaon XRX is set up so that the detection envelope is
within a 6 nm radius and ± 2500ft altitude of the aircraft,
When the Zaon XRX is configured correctly and AV8OR ACE is
receiving traffic information from the traffic receiver, a blue traffic
icon is displayed on the Status window in the left bottom corner of
the Map page
