Follow this procedure to enable the TAWS Class A function. A TAWS-A Enable Card, as specified on
General Arrangement Drawing 005-00629-02, will be required for this procedure.
NOTE
The G1000 has various features that require the use of unlock/enable cards to
activate the feature. Throughout this document these cards are generically
referred to as ‘enable cards’. In some cases, the actual label on the physical
card may say ‘unlock’. If uncertain, the technician should verify the card part
number prior to use.

3.10. Ensure that the RAD ALT Option Configuration has been loaded per
