TCAS II
For airplanes equipped with the GTS 8000 TCAS II system:
The GTS 8000 TCAS II system will normally transition between the appropriate STANDBY, TA ONLY and
TA/RA modes automatically. During airport surface movement operations, the GTS 8000 will normally be
in STANDBY Mode. The TCAS II should not be manually placed into TA ONLY or TA/RA mode during
surface movement operations.
The TCAS II should be tested as part of cockpit preparation during preflight inspection. The G1000
systems should be operating in their normal mode prior to performing a TCAS II test. A successful TCAS
test will result in the aural message “TACS II System Test Passed” being played, and no TCAS FAIL
annunciations observed on the PFDs or MFD.

1. XPDR/TFC Softkey on PFD ................................................................................................... PRESS
