Changing the Map Range
To change the map range:
1.
Turn the joystick clockwise to zoom out or turn
the joystick counter-clockwise to zoom in. Map
ranges are 2 nm, 6 nm and 12 nm.
NOTE: If the intruder aircraft is non-altitude
reporting only the range and bearing will be
displayed.
Operating Mode
Once the aircraft is airborne the system switches from
ground or standby mode to operating mode. The G1000
displays 'OPERATE' in the upper left hand corner of the
display and begins to display traffic on the Traffic or Map
Page.
The TIS Traffic Advisory (TA) should alert the crew
to look for intruding aircraft any time a yellow circle
traffic symbol appears and voice warning is announced.
Conduct a visual search for the intruder. Maintain
visual contact to ensure safe separation.
When the aircraft is on the ground the system switches
from operating mode to ground or standby mode. The
Traffic Map Page displays 'GND' or 'STANDBY'.
• STANDBY – when the Traffic Map Page displays
'STANDBY' in the status box on the Traffic Map
Page, the TIS system is in standby mode and
cannot display traffic data.
• GND – when the Traffic Map Page displays 'GND'
in the status box on the Traffic Map Page, the TIS
system does not display traffic data. The GTX 33
does not reply to Mode A or Mode C interroga-
tions but does send Mode S acquisition replies.
The ground mode is entered automatically. It is
not a crew selectable mode.
