Hazard Avoidance
TRAFFIC AUDIO ALERTS
A traffic audio alert is generated whenever the number of Traffic Advisories on
the G3X screen increases from one scan to the next. Limiting Traffic Advisories only
reduces the "nuisance" alerting due to proximate aircraft. For example, when the
first Traffic Advisories appear on the TIS display, the user is alerted audibly. So long
as a single aircraft remains on the traffic display, no further audio alert is generated.
If a second (or more) aircraft appears on the screen, a new audio alert is sounded.
If the number of Traffic Advisories on the traffic display decreases and then
increases, a new audio alert is sounded. The traffic audio alert is also generated
whenever traffic becomes available. The following traffic audio alerts are available:
• "Traffic"— Traffic alert received.
• "Traffic Not Available"—Traffic service is not available or out of range.
Enable/disable 'Traffic Not Available' audio alert:
1) Press the MENU Key twice to display the Main Menu.
2) Turn or move the FMS Joystick to highlight 'System Setup...' and press the
ENT Key.
3) Turn or move the FMS Joystick to highlight 'Sound', and press the ENT Key.
4) Move the FMS Joystick to highlight the Traffic N/A Alert field.
5) Turn the FMS Joystick to highlight 'On' or 'Off'.
6) Press the FMS Joystick, the CLR Key, the EXIT Softkey or the MENU Key to
return to the previous page.

TRAFFIC WARNING WINDOW

When a traffic threat is imminent, the Traffic Warning Window is shown. The Traffic
Warning Window shows a small pop-up thumbnail map in the lower left corner. The
Range Rings on the pop-up alert are spaced every whole mile/kilometer/nautical mile.
Press the CLR Key to remove the Traffic Warning Window.
NOTE: The Traffic Warning Window is disabled when the aircraft ground speed
is less than 30 knots or when on the approach leg of a route.
