4.4 External TAWS
If a GNS 500WT-series or GTN-series with TAWS unit is interfaced as GPS
1, text alerts generated by the external TAWS unit will be displayed on the PFD.
Refer to the GNS 500WT-series or GTN-series Pilot’s Guides and/or Addendums
for more information regarding these TAWS alerts. Text alerts received from the
GNS/GTN TAWS unit will be displayed to the left and aligned with the top of
the Altitude Tape on the PFD. A new annunciation will flash for approximately
five seconds.
