CREW ALERTING

The alerting system of the HA-420 airplane follows certain conventions
in accordance with the AFM. These alerts consist of visual, aural, and
tactile means of notifying the pilot of advisory, abnormal, and emergency
operating conditions.
CAS messages are text alerts that appear in one of four colors
corresponding to their classification in the lower right corner of the PFDs
or, in case of pilot PFD failure, on the MFD in reversionary display
mode.
CAS messages include three levels of alerts—warning, caution, and
advisory—as well as status information messages. Certain CAS
messages will also have aural alerts associated with them. Aural alerts
include tones and spoken alert messages. Tactile alerts are used for the
stall warning function via a single shaker motor.
Pressing the pilot or copilot's MASTER WARNING/CAUTION button
acknowledges warning and caution CAS messages.
In general, red alerts and CAS messages refer to situations requiring
immediate response to protect the occupants and the aircraft from harm
during a critical situation.
Amber alerts and CAS messages usually indicate failure conditions that
require timely pilot action to maintain an acceptable level of
airworthiness or reduce operational risk resulting from the failure.
