HAZARD AVOIDANCE
For navigation maps, the pilot can enable/disable the Cell Movement weather product using the NEXRAD
Softkey. For this to occur, the pilot must first enable the 'Cell Movement' option in the Map Settings menu
of the Navigation Map Page.
Setting up the system to display Cell Movement with NEXRAD on navigation maps:
1) Use the FMS Knob to select the Navigation Map Page.
2) Press the MENU Key.
3) With 'Map Settings' highlighted, press the ENT Key.
4) Turn the small FMS Knob to highlight 'Weather' and press the ENT Key.
5) Turn the large FMS Knob to 'On' or 'Off' for the Cell Movement menu option. When set to 'On', Cell Movement
is enabled/disabled with the NEXRAD weather product on navigation maps. When set to 'Off', Cell Movement
is not displayed on navigation maps.
6) When finished, push the FMS Knob or CLR Key to remove the menu.
After the 'Cell Movement' option is set to 'On', refer to the previous procedures for enabling/disabling the
NEXRAD weather product to control both products simultaneously on navigation maps using the NEXRAD
Softkey.
SIGMETS AND AIRMETS
SIGMET (SIGnificant METeorological Information) and AIRMET (AIRmen' s METeorological Information)
are issued for potentially hazardous weather. A Convective SIGMET is issued for hazardous convective
weather such as severe or widespread thunderstorms. A localized SIGMET is a significant weather condition
occurring at a localized geographical position.
If SiriusXM Weather is the active data link weather source and a GDL 69/69A SXM receiver installed,
NOTE:
the SIGMET and AIRMET weather products are not available unless at least one SIGMET or AIRMET has
been received. The weather product age indicates 'N/A' when no SIGMET or AIRMET is available.
