SECTION 12 – ANNUNCIATIONS
& ALERTS
Miscellaneous Message Advisories
Message Comments
FPL WPT LOCK
– Flight plan waypoint
is locked.
Upon power-up, the G1000 system detects that a stored flight plan waypoint is
locked. This occurs when an aviation database update eliminates an obsolete
waypoint. The flight plan cannot find the specified waypoint and flags this
message. This can also occur with user waypoints in a flight plan that is deleted.
Remove the waypoint from the flight plan if it no longer exists in any database,
Or
update the waypoint name/identifier to reflect the new information.
FPL WPT MOVE
– Flight plan
waypoint moved.
The system has detected that a waypoint coordinate has changed due to a new
aviation database update. Verify that stored flight plans contain correct waypoint
locations.
TIMER EXPIRD
– Timer has expired. The system notifies the pilot that the timer has expired.
DB CHANGE
– Database changed.
Verify user modified procedures.
This occurs when a stored flight plan contains procedures that have been manually
edited. This alert is issued only after an aviation database update. Verify that the
user-modified procedures in stored flight plans are correct and up to date.
FPL TRUNC
– Flight plan has been
truncated.
This occurs when a newly installed aviation database eliminates an obsolete
approach or arrival used by a stored flight plan. The obsolete procedure is
removed from the flight plan. Update flight plan with current arrival or approach.
LOCKED FPL
– Cannot navigate
locked flight plan.
This occurs when the pilot attempts to activate a stored flight plan that contains
locked waypoint. Remove locked waypoint from flight plan. Update flight plan
with current waypoint.
WPT ARRIVAL
– Arriving at waypoint
-[xxxx]
Arriving at waypoint [xxxx], where [xxxx] is the waypoint name.
STEEP TURN
– Steep turn ahead. A steep turn is 15 seconds ahead. Prepare to turn.
INSIDE ARSPC
– Inside airspace. The aircraft is inside the airspace.
ARSPC AHEAD
– Airspace ahead less
than 10 minutes.
Special use airspace is ahead of aircraft. The aircraft will penetrate the airspace
within 10 minutes.
ARSPC NEAR
– Airspace near and
ahead.
Special use airspace is near and ahead of the aircraft position.
ARSPC NEAR
– Airspace near – less
than 2 nm.
Special use airspace is within 2 nm of the aircraft position.
APR INACTV
– Approach is not active. The system notifies the pilot that the loaded approach is not active. Activate
approach when required.
