FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
ALERTS WINDOW
Messages appear in the Alerts Window (in the lower right corner of the PFD; Figure 2-33) when a warning,
caution, advisory alert, or G1000 message advisory occurs. System alert messages are provided to make the
pilot aware of G1000 system problems or status and may not require pilot action. The Alerts Window allows
system alerts to be displayed simultaneously. The FMS Knob can be used to scroll through the alert messages.
The Alerts Window is enabled/disabled by pressing the ALERTS Softkey. If the window is already open when a
new message is generated, pressing the ALERTS Softkey to acknowledge the message causes it to turn gray.
ANNUNCIATION WINDOW
The Annunciation Window appears to the right of the Vertical Speed Indicator and displays abbreviated
annunciation text for aircraft alerts. Text color is based on alert level: warnings appear in red, cautions in
yellow, advisory alerts in white. New alerts, regardless of priority, are displayed at the top of the Annunciation
Window, separated by a white line from acknowledged alerts. Once acknowledged, they are sequenced based
on priority.
