Displaying Traffic on the Navigation Map Page
Pressing the TRAFFIC softkey displays Traffic
Information Service (TIS) traffic on the Navigation Map
Page. TIS is a ground-based service providing relative
location of all ATCRBS Mode-A and Mode-C transponder
equipped aircraft within a specified service volume.
The TIS ground sensor uses real time track reports to
generate traffic notification. Surveillance data includes
all transponder-equipped aircraft within the coverage
volume. The G1000 displays up to eight traffic targets
within a 7.5 nautical mile radius, from 3,000 feet below to
3,500 feet above the requesting aircraft. See Appendix E
for a full description of TIS. A traffic symbol appears next
to the map range in the bottom right corner of the display
indicating the presence of traffic data on the map.
To display traffic on the Navigation Map
Page:
1. Press the
MAP softkey.
2. Press the
TRAFFIC softkey. Press the
TRAFFIC softkey again to remove traffic from the
Navigation Map Page.
NOTE: Traffic and terrain data can also be
displayed by using the ‘On/Off’ Navigation Map
Page option. See the Navigation Map Page setup
section for details.
