CURRENT TRAFFIC MODE
Once the aircraft is airborne, TIS switches from Standby to Operating mode. The G1000 displays ‘TIS
OPERATING’ in the upper left corner and begins to display traffic on the Traffic Map Page. TIS Traffic
Advisories (TA) are issued to alert the crew to intruding aircraft.
Once the aircraft is on the ground, TIS switches from operating mode to standby mode. The Traffic Map
Page displays ‘STANDBY’. The pilot can use the page menu or softkeys to switch between Standby (STBY)
and Operating (ON) modes and manually override automatic operation.
Switching between operating modes:
1) Select the Map Page Group.

displayed in the status box in the upper left corner of the Traffic Map Page.

of the following messages can display at a time:
• AGE - If traffic data is not refreshed within six seconds, an age indicator (‘AGE MM:SS’) displays in the
lower left corner. If data is not received after another six seconds, the traffic is removed from the display.
The quality of displayed traffic information is reduced as the age increases.
