Displaying Taws Data - Garmin G1000:Beechcraft Baron 58/G58 User Manual

HAZARD AVOIDANCE

DISPLAYING TAWS DATA

TAWS uses yellow (caution) and red (warning) to depict terrain and obstacles with heights greater than 200
feet above ground level, AGL. Alerts are given relative to aircraft altitude. Colors are adjusted automatically as
the aircraft altitude changes. The colors and symbols shown in the figure and table below are used to represent
terrain, obstacles, and potential impact points.

< 1000' AGL > 1000' AGL < 1000' AGL > 1000' AGL
TAWS information can be displayed on the following maps:
• PFD Inset Map
• Navigation Map Page
• TAWS Page
Displaying terrain and obstacle information (maps other than the TAWS Page):
1) Select the MAP Softkey (for the PFD Inset Map, select the INSET Softkey).
2) Select the TERRAIN Softkey to display terrain and obstacle data.
When TAWS is selected on maps other than the TAWS Page, an icon to indicate the feature is enabled for
display and a legend for TAWS terrain colors is shown.
The Navigation Map Page Setup Menu provides a means in addition to the softkey for enabling/disabling
display of terrain and obstacles. The setup menu also controls the map range settings above which terrain and
obstacle data are decluttered from the display. If a map range larger than the map range setting is selected, the
data is removed from the map.
