TIS SYMBOLOGY
Traffic Information Service (TIS) is designed to help pilots detect and avoid aircraft intersecting their flight
path. TIS uses the Mode S transponder for the traffic data link.
TIS receives traffic information from ground stations and provides a five-second update rate. The G1000
displays up to eight traffic targets within a 7.5 nm radius, from 3,000 feet below to 3,500 feet above the
requesting aircraft. Traffic is displayed on the Traffic Map Page according to TCAS symbology. Traffic is
displayed using four different symbols (as shown in Table 6-6).
