9900 Bx Tcad (If Installed) - Garmin G1000 Manual

3.15.2 9900 BX TCAD (if installed)

If the G1000 has not received any ARINC 429 data from TCAD, the
MUTE softkey will not be displayed. Instead, STBY, OPER and TEST
softkeys will be displayed.
1. Select the TRAFFIC MAP map page on the MFD.
If TIS is displayed instead of TAS, the G1000 has not been properly
configured for TCAD.
2. Verify that the MUTE and ALT MODE soft keys are available on the bottom of the display.
Verify that a TAS mode (and not TAS FAIL ) is displayed in the upper left corner of the traffic
map. Verify that NO DATA is not displayed in yellow in the center of the display (in place of the
ownship symbol)
The TCAD may take several minutes to warm up and become valid.
3. Press the MUTE soft key twice in half a second and verify that "Ground Mode, No Advisories" is
heard over the cockpit speaker and "TCAD Altitude Data Invalid" is not heard.
4. Open the TRAFFIC circuit breaker on the avionics circuit breaker panel. On the MFD, verify
that NO DATA is displayed in yellow after several seconds.
5. Close the TRAFFIC circuit breaker on the avionics circuit breaker panel and verify that NO
DATA is removed after several seconds.
