TRAFFIC MAP PAGE
TIS SYMBOLOGY
TIS traffic is displayed on the Traffic Map Page
according to TCAS symbology. A Traffic Advisory (TA)
symbol is displayed as a solid yellow circle (or half circle
on the outer range ring if the traffic is outside the range
of the dedicated traffic page). All other traffic is displayed
as a hollow white Beechcraft. Altitude deviation from the
user’s aircraft altitude is displayed above the target symbol
if they are above own aircraft altitude, and below the
symbol if they are below own aircraft altitude. Altitude
trend is displayed as an up arrow (+500 ft/min), down
arrow (-500 ft/min), or no symbol if less than 500 ft/min
rate in either direction. Other symbols:
• Other Traffic – this symbol represents traffic
detected within the selected display range that
does not generate a TA.
• Traffic Advisory (TA) – this symbol is generated
when traffic meets the advisory criteria described
previously.
• Traffic Ground Track is indicated on the Traffic
Map Page by a “target track vector”. The track
vector line is projected from the traffic advisory
symbol and is drawn at any angle necessary to
represent the current track of the traffic advisory
data.
NOTE: Traffic Information Service (TIS) is not
available in all areas.
NOTE: See Appendix F for traffic symbol descrip-
tions.
TRAFFIC MAP PAGE OPERATIONS
Power-Up Test
The TIS interface performs an automatic test during
power-up. If the system passes the power-up test, the
standby screen is displayed on the Traffic Map Page. If the
system passes the power-up test, and the aircraft is
airborne, traffic is displayed on the Traffic Page in the
operating mode.
If the system fails the power up test, the ‘NO DATA’,
‘DATA FAILED’, or ‘FAILED’ message is displayed.
Contact your Beechcraft service center or Garmin dealer
for corrective action if the ‘DATA FAILED’, or ‘FAILED’
message is displayed. The ‘FAILED’ message indicates
the GTX 33 transponder has failed. The ‘DATA FAILED’
message indicates data is being received from the GTX 33
but a failure was detected in the data stream. The ‘NO
DATA’ message indicates that data is not being received
from the GTX 33.
Changing the Map Range
To change the map range:
1. Turn the
joystick clockwise to zoom out, or
turn the joystick counter-clockwise to zoom
in. Map ranges are 2 nm, 6 nm, and 12 nm.
