SECTION 12 – ANNUNCIATIONS
& ALERTS
SECTION 12: ANNUNCIATIONS &
ALERTS
NOTE: The Cessna aircraft Pilot’s Operating
Handbook (POH) supersedes information found
in this document.
The G1000 Alerting System conveys alerts to the pilot
using a combination of the following items:
• Annunciation Window: The Annunciation Window
displays abbreviated annunciation text. Text color is
based on alert levels described later in the Alert Levels
Definitions section. The Annunciation Window
is located to the right of the Altimeter and Vertical
Speed Indicator on the display. All Cessna Nav III
annunciations can be displayed simultaneously in
the Annunciation Window. A white horizontal line
separates annunciations that are acknowledged from
annunciations that are not yet acknowledged. Higher
priority annunciations are displayed towards the top
of the window. Lower priority annunciations are
displayed towards the bottom of the window.
• Alerts Window: The Alerts Window displays alert
text messages. Up to 64 prioritized alert messages
can be displayed in the Alerts Window. Pressing
the ALERTS Softkey displays the Alerts Window.
Pressing the ALERTS Softkey a second time removes
the Alerts Window from the display. When the Alerts
Window is displayed, the pilot can use the large FMS
Knob to scroll through the alert message list.
• Softkey Annunciation: During certain alerts,
the ALERTS Softkey may appear as a flashing
annunciation to accompany an alert. The ALERTS
Softkey assumes a new label consistent with the
alert level (WARNING, CAUTION, or ADVISORY).
By pressing the softkey annunciation, the pilot
acknowledges awareness of the alert. The softkey
then returns to the previous ALERTS label. If alerts
are still present, the ALERTS label is displayed in
inverse video (white background with black text).
The pilot can press the ALERTS Softkey a second
time to view alert text messages.
• System Annunciations: Typically, a large red ‘X’
appears in windows when a failure is detected in the
LRU providing the information to the window. See
the G1000 System Annunciations section for more
information.
• Audio Alerting System: The G1000 system issues
audio alert tones when specific system conditions are
met. See the Alert Levels Definitions section for more
information.
