TAS/TCAS I ALERTS
When the GTS 8XX detects a new TA, the following occur:
• A single "Traffic!" voice alert is generated, followed by additional voice information
about the bearing, relative altitude, and approximate distance from the intruder that
triggered the TA. The announcement "Traffic! 12 o'clock, high, four miles," would
indicate the traffic is in front of own aircraft, above own altitude, and approximately
four nautical miles away.
• A TRAFFIC Annunciation appears at the top right of the airspeed on the PFD, flashing
for five seconds and remains displayed until no TAs are detected in the area.
If the bearing of TA traffic cannot be determined, a yellow text banner will be
displayed in the center of the Traffic Page and in the lower-left of the PFD inset map
(GDU 460 only) instead of a TA symbol. The text will indicate "TA" followed by the
distance, relative altitude, and vertical trend arrow for the TA traffic, if known.
