Page 5 Terrain data is obtained from third party sources. Garmin is not able to independently verify the accuracy of the terrain data. The displayed minimum safe altitudes (MSAs) are only advisory in nature and should not be WARNING: relied upon as the sole source of obstacle and terrain avoidance information.
Page 6 WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES The Garmin G1000, as installed in the Socata TBM 850 aircraft, has a very high degree of WARNING: functional integrity. However, the pilot must recognize that providing monitoring and/or self-test capability for all conceivable system failures is not practical. Although unlikely, it may be possible for erroneous operation to occur without a fault indication shown by the G1000.
Page 7 ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very important to clean the lens using a clean, lint-free cloth and an eyeglass lens cleaner that is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings. The Garmin G1000 does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be made by CAUTION: an authorized Garmin service center.

Page 173 • Flight plans that have a combination of long and short legs cause the range to increase and decrease as waypoints sequence. To avoid this, auto zoom can be disabled or the maximum/minimum times can be adjusted. • The ‘time out’ time (configurable on the Map Setup Page for the Map Group) determines how long auto zoom is overridden by a manual adjustment of the range knob. At the expiration of this time, the auto zoom range is restored. Setting the ‘time out’ value to zero causes the manual override to never time out. • When the maximum ‘look forward’ time is set to zero, the upper limit becomes the maximum range available (2000 nm). • When the minimum ‘look forward’ time is set to zero, the lower limit becomes 1.5 nm. 190-00709-04 Rev.

Page 324 Minutes Cloud Tops Weather Product Enabled Icon Figure 6-2 Weather Data Link Page When a weather product is active on the Weather Data Link (XM) Page or the Navigation Map Page, the corresponding product symbol and age of the data are displayed inside a status box (Figure 6-2). The age of the product is based on the time difference between when the data was assembled on the ground and the current GPS time. Weather products are refreshed at specific intervals (defined in the Refresh Rate column in Table 6-1). If for any reason, a weather product is not refreshed within the defined Expiration Time intervals, the data is considered expired and is removed from the display, and the weather product age is replaced by dashes. This ensures that the displayed data is consistent with what is currently being transmitted by XM WX Satellite Weather services. If more than half of the expiration time has elapsed, the color of the product age is displayed in yellow. If a weather product is not available, 'N/A' is displayed instead of the product age. Table 6-1 shows the weather product symbols, the expiration time and the refresh rate. The refresh rate represents the interval at which SiriusXM provides new signals that may or may not contain new weather data. It does not represent the rate at which weather data is updated or new content is received by the Data Link Receiver.

Page 332 NEXRAD data is not real-time. The lapsed time between collection, processing, and dissemination of NEXRAD images can be significant and may not reflect the current radar synopsis. Due to the inherent delays and the relative age of the data, it should be used for long-range planning purposes only. Never use NEXRAD data or any radar data to penetrate hazardous weather. Instead, use it in an early-warning capacity of pre- departure and enroute evaluation.

Areas where NEXRAD radar coverage and Echo Tops information is not currently available or is not being collected are indicated in a gray shade of purple. eFlectivity Reflectivity is the amount of transmitted power returned to the radar receiver. Colors on the NEXRAD display directly correlate to the level of detected reflectivity. Reflectivity as it relates to hazardous weather can be very complex. The role of radar is essentially to detect moisture in the atmosphere. Simply put, certain types of weather reflect radar better than others. The intensity of a radar reflection is not necessarily an indication of the weather hazard level. For instance, wet hail returns a strong radar reflection, while dry hail does not. Both wet and dry hail can be extremely hazardous. 190-00709-04 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850...
Page 334 • NEXRAD base reflectivity does not provide sufficient information to determine cloud layers or precipitation characteristics. For example, it is not possible to distinguish between wet snow, wet hail, and rain. • NEXRAD base reflectivity is sampled at the minimum antenna elevation angle.

It has no information about storms directly over the site. • When zoomed in to a range of 30 nm, each square block on the display represents an area of four square kilometers.

Page 390: Airborne Color Weather Radar
PRINCIPLES OF PULSED AIRBORNE WEATHER RADAR The term RADAR is an acronym for RAdio Detecting And Ranging. Pulsed radar locates targets by transmitting a microwave pulse beam that, upon encountering a target, is reflected back to the radar receiver as a return echo. The microwave pulses are focused and radiated by the antenna, with the most intense energy in the center of the beam and decreasing intensity near the edge. The same antenna is used for both transmitting and receiving. The returned signal is then processed and displayed on the G1000 MFD. Radar detection is a two-way process that requires 12.36 µs for the transmitted microwave pulses to travel out and back for each nautical mile of target range. It takes 123.6 µs for a transmitted pulse to make the round trip if a target is ten nautical miles away. Airborne weather radar should be used to avoid severe weather, not for penetrating severe weather. The decision to fly into an area of radar targets depends on target intensity, spacing between the targets, aircraft capabilities, and pilot experience. Pulse type weather radar detects only precipitation, not clouds or turbulence. The display may indicate clear areas between intense returns, but this does not necessarily mean it is safe to fly between them. Only Doppler radar can detect turbulence. Airborne weather radar has other capabilities beyond weather detection. It also has the ability to detect and provide distance to cities, mountains, coastlines, rivers, lakes, and oceans.

Page 392 RADAR SIGNAL REFLECTIVITY ReciPitatiOn Precipitation or objects more dense than water, such as the surface of the earth or solid structures, are detected by the weather radar. The weather radar does not detect clouds, thunderstorms, or turbulence directly. It detects precipitation associated with clouds, thunderstorms, and turbulence. The best radar signal reflectors are raindrops, wet snow, or wet hail. The larger the raindrop, the better the reflectivity. The size of the precipitation droplet is the most important factor in radar reflectivity. Because large drops in a small concentrated area are characteristic of a severe thunderstorm, the radar displays the storm as a strong return. Ice crystals, dry snow, and dry hail have low levels of reflectivity as shown in the illustration, and often is not displayed by the radar. Additionally, a cloud that contains only small raindrops, such as fog or drizzle, does not reflect enough radar energy to produce a measurable target return. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850 190-00709-04 Rev. A...
Page 393 Mountains also provide strong return signals to the antenna, but also block the areas behind. However, over mountainous terrain, the radar beam can be reflected back and forth in the mountain passes or off canyon walls, using up all or most of the radar energy. In this case, no return signal is received from this area, causing the display to show a dark spot which could indicate a pass where no pass exists. ngle OF nciDence The angle at which the radar beam strikes the target is called the Angle of Incidence. The figure illustrates the incident angle (‘A’). This directly affects the detectable range, the area of illumination, and the intensity of the displayed target returns. A large incident angle gives the radar system a smaller detectable range and lower display intensity due to minimized reflection of the radar energy. 190-00709-04 Rev.

Page 394: Safe Operating Distance
The following information establishes a minimum safe distance from the antenna for personnel near operating weather radar. The minimum safe distance is based on the FCC’ s exposure limit at 9.3 to 9.5 GHz for general population/uncontrolled environments, which is 1 mW/cm2. See Advisory Circular 20-68B for more information on safe distance determination. MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LEVEL (MPEL) The zone in which the radiation level exceeds the US Government standard of 1 mW/cm2 is the semicircular area of at least 9.16 feet from the 10-inch antenna. All personnel must remain outside of this zone. With a scanning or rotating beam, the averaged power density at the MPEL boundary is significantly reduced.

Page 395: Basic Antenna Tilt Setup
The following discussion is a simple method for setting up the weather radar antenna tilt for most situations. It is not to be considered an all encompassing setup that works in all situations, but this method does provide good overall parameters for the monitoring of threats. Ultimately, it is desired to have the antenna tilted so that the bottom of the radar beam is four degrees below parallel with the ground. The following example explains one way of achieving this. With the aircraft flying level, adjust the antenna tilt so ground returns are displayed at a distance that equals the aircraft’ s current altitude (AGL) divided by 1,000. For example, if the aircraft is at 14,000 feet, adjust the tilt so the front edge of ground returns are displayed at 14 nautical miles. Note this antenna tilt angle setting. Now, raise the antenna tilt 6 degrees above this setting. The bottom of the radar beam is now angled down 4º from parallel with the ground. 190-00709-04 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850...
Page 396 Figure 6-99 Vertical Change in Radar Beam per Nautical Mile Therefore, with the antenna tilt set so that the bottom of the beam is four degrees below parallel with the ground, a target return at 10 nm is approximately 4,000 feet below the aircraft; at 20 nm, 8,000 feet; at 50 nm, 20,000 feet. In other words, at this tilt setting, a ground return (such as a mountain peak) being displayed at 10 nm would have a maximum distance below the aircraft of 4,000 feet. When that ground target return moves to 5 nm, the maximum distance below the aircraft is 2,000 feet. This setup provides a good starting point for practical use of the GWX 68. There are many other factors to consider in order to become proficient at using weather radar in all situations. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850 190-00709-04 Rev. A...

41 dBZ to < 50 dBZ 0.5 - 2 Magenta 50 dBZ and greater > 2 Table 6-10 Precipitation Intensity Levels hUnDeRstORms Updrafts and downdrafts in thunderstorms carry water through the cloud. The more severe the drafts, the greater the number and size of the precipitation droplets. With this in mind, the following interpretations can be made from what is displayed on the weather radar. Avoid these areas by an extra wide margin. • In areas where the displayed target intensity is red or magenta (indicating large amounts of precipitation), the turbulence is considered severe. • Areas that show steep color gradients (intense color changes) over thin bands or short distances suggest irregular rainfall rate and strong turbulence. • A reas that show red or magenta are associated with hail or turbulence, as well as heavy precipitation. Vertical scanning and antenna tilt management may be necessary to identify areas of maximum intensity. 190-00709-04 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850...
Page 398 Targets showing wide areas of green are generally precipitation without severe turbulence. Irregularities in the target return may also indicate turbulence, appearing as hooks, fingers, or scalloped edges. These irregularities may be present in green areas with no yellow, red, or magenta areas and should be treated as highly dangerous areas. Avoid these areas as if they are red or magenta. Squall Line Steep Gradient Hook or Finger Scalloped Edge Figure 6-100 Cell Irregularities Thunderstorm development is rapid. A course may become blocked within a short time. When displaying shorter ranges, periodically select a longer range to see if problems are developing further out. That can help prevent getting trapped in a blind alley or an area that is closed at one end by convective weather.

Page 399 Hail results from updrafts carrying water high enough to freeze. Therefore, the higher the top of a thunderstorm, the greater the probability that it contains hail. Vertically scanning the target return can give the radar top of a thunderstorm that contains hail. Radar top is the top of a storm cell as detected by radar. It is not the actual top, or true top of the storm. The actual top of a storm cell is seen with the eyes in clear air and may be much higher than the radar top. The actual top does not indicate the top of the hazardous area. Hail can fall below the minimum reflectivity threshold for radar detection. It can have a film of water on its surface, making its reflective characteristics similar to a very large water droplet. Because of this film of water, and because hail stones usually are larger than water droplets, thunderstorms with large amounts of wet hail return stronger signals than those with rain. Some hail shafts are extremely narrow (100 yards or less) and make poor radar targets. In the upper regions of a cell where ice particles are dry (no liquid coating), target returns are less intense. 190-00709-04 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850...

Page 418: Terrain Proximity
Terrain Proximity requires the following components to operate properly: • Valid 3-D GPS position • Valid terrain/obstacle database Terrain Proximity displays altitudes of terrain and obstructions relative to the aircraft position and altitude with reference to a database that may contain inaccuracies. Terrain and obstructions are shown only if they are in the database. Terrain and obstacle information should be used as an aid to situational awareness. They should never be used to navigate or maneuver around terrain. Note that all obstructions may not be available in the terrain and obstacle database. No terrain and obstacle information is shown without a valid 3-D GPS position. The G1000 GPS receiver provides the horizontal position and altitude. GPS altitude is derived from satellite position. GPS altitude is then converted to the height above geodetic sea level (GSL), which is the height above mean sea level calculated geometrically. GSL altitude is used to determine terrain and obstacle proximity. GSL altitude accuracy is affected by satellite geometry, but is not subject to variations in pressure and temperature that normally affect pressure altitude sensors. GSL altitude does not require local altimeter settings to determine MSL altitude. It is a widely-used MSL altitude source. Terrain and obstacle databases are referenced to GSL. Using the GPS position and altitude, the Terrain Proximity feature portrays a 2-D picture of the surrounding terrain and obstacles relative to the position and altitude of the aircraft. GPS position and GSL altitude are used to calculate and predict the aircraft’ s flight path in relation to the surrounding terrain and obstacles. In this way, the pilot can view predicted dangerous terrain and obstacle conditions. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850 190-00709-04 Rev. A...

Table 6-26 TIS Traffic Symbols A Traffic Advisory (TA) indicates that the current track of the intruder could result in a collision. When traffic meets the advisory criteria for the TA, a solid yellow circle symbol is generated. A TA which is detected, but is outside the range of the map, is indicated with a message in the lower left corner of the map and a half TA symbol at the relative bearing of the intruder. TIS also provides a vector line showing the direction in which the traffic is moving, to the nearest 45°. Traffic information for which TIS is unable to determine the bearing (non-bearing traffic) is displayed in the center of the Traffic Map Page (Figure 6-164) or in a banner at the lower left corner of maps other than the Traffic Map Page on which traffic can be displayed. The altitude difference between the requesting aircraft and other intruder aircraft is displayed above/below the traffic symbol in hundreds of feet. If the other aircraft is above the requesting aircraft, the altitude separation appears above the traffic symbol; if below, the altitude separation appears below. Altitude trend is displayed as an up/down arrow (for speeds greater than 500 fpm in either direction) to the right of the target symbol. Traffic symbols for aircraft without altitude reporting capability appear without altitude separation or climb/descent information. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850 190-00709-04 Rev.

Inset Map Displays When TA is Detected Figure 6-165 Traffic Annunciation (PFD) A “TIS Not Available” (TNA) voice alert is generated when the TIS service becomes unavailable or is out of range. TIS may be unavailable in the radar coverage area due to the following: • Radar site TIS Mode S sensor is not operational or is out of service • Traffic or requesting aircraft is beyond the maximum range of the TIS-capable Mode S radar site. • Traffic or requesting aircraft is above the radar site in the cone of silence and out of range of an adjacent site. • Traffic or requesting aircraft is below radar coverage. In flat terrain, the coverage extends from about 3000 feet upward at 55 miles. Terrain and obstacles around the radar site can further decrease radar coverage in all directions. • Traffic does not have an operating transponder.

TIS is disabled when TAS installed. NOTE: The optional Garmin GTS 820 is a Traffic Advisory System (TAS). The GTS 820 enhances flight crew situational awareness by displaying traffic information for transponder-equipped aircraft. The GTS 820 also provides visual and aural traffic alerts including voice announcements to assist in visually acquiring traffic. The GTS 820 is capable of tracking up to 45 intruding aircraft equipped with Mode A or C transponders, and up to 30 intruders equipped with Mode S transponders. A maximum of 30 aircraft with the highest threat potential can be displayed simultaneously. No TAS surveillance is provided for aircraft without operating transponders. THEORY OF OPERATION When the GTS 820 is in Operating Mode, the unit interrogates the transponders of intruding aircraft while monitoring transponder replies. The GTS 820 uses this information to derive the distance, relative bearing, and if reported, the altitude and vertical trend for each aircraft within its surveillance range. The GTS 820 then calculates a closure rate to each intruder based on the projected Closest Point of Approach (CPA). If the closure rate meets the threat criteria for a Traffic Advisory (TA), visual and aural alerting is provided. TAS SURVEILLANCE VOLUME The GTS 820 surveillance system monitors the airspace within ±10,000 feet of own altitude. Under ideal conditions, the unit scans transponder traffic up to 40 nm in the forward direction. Range is somewhat reduced to the sides and aft of own aircraft due to the directional interrogation signal patterns. In areas of greater transponder traffic density or when TCAS II systems are detected, the GTS 820 automatically reduces its interrogation transmitter power (and therefore range) in order to limit potential interference from other signals. TAS SYMBOLOGY The GTS 850 uses symbology to depict intruding traffic using the symbols shown in Table 6-30. 190-00709-04 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850...

It also uses lateral acceleration to coordinate turns. Yaw damper operation is independent of autopilot engagement. When the yaw damper is not engaged, the yaw trim adapter may be used to provide manual electric yaw trim (MEYT). This allows the aircraft to be trimmed using a control wheel switch. Trim speeds are scheduled with airspeed to provide more consistent response. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850 190-00709-04 Rev. A...

Page 517: Example Flight Plan
This scenario-based set of procedures (based on the example flight plan found in the Flight Management Section) shows various GFC 700 AFCS modes used during a flight. In this scenario, the aircraft departs Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport (KMKC), enroute to Colorado Springs Airport (KCOS). After departure, the aircraft climbs to 12,000 ft and airway V4 is intercepted, following ATC vectors. Airway V4 is flown to Salina VOR (SLN) using VOR navigation, then airway V244 is flown using a GPS flight plan. The ILS approach for runway 35L and LPV (WAAS) approach for runway 35R are shown and a missed approach is executed. KMKC KCOS Figure 7-35 Flight Plan Overview 190-00709-04 Rev.

Page 538 Programmed Altitudes Figure 8-4 Programmed and Selected Altitude Pathways provide supplemental glidepath information on an active ILS, LPV, LNAV/VNAV, and some LNAV approaches. Pathways are intended as an aid to situational awareness and should not be used independent of the CDI, VDI, glide path indicator, and glide slope indicator. They are removed from the display when the selected navigation information is not available. Pathways are not displayed beyond the active leg when leg sequencing is suspended and are not displayed on any portion of the flight plan leg that would lead to intercepting a leg in the wrong direction. ePaRtURe anD nROUte Prior to intercepting an active flight plan leg, pathways are displayed as a series of boxes with pointers at each corner that point in the direction of the active waypoint. Pathways are not displayed for the first leg of the flight plan if that segment is a Heading-to-Altitude leg. The first segment displaying pathways is the first active GPS leg or active leg with a GPS overlay. If this leg of the flight plan route is outside the SVS field of view, pathways will not be visible until the aircraft has turned toward this leg. While approaching the center of the active leg and prescribed altitude, the number of pathway boxes decreases to a minimum of four. Pathways are displayed along the flight plan route at the highest of either the selected altitude or the programmed altitude for the leg. Climb profiles cannot be displayed due to the variables associated with aircraft performance. Flight plan legs requiring a climb are indicated by pathways displayed at a level above the aircraft at the altitude selected or programmed.

The obstacle database contains data for obstacles, such as towers, that pose a potential hazard to aircraft. Obstacles 200 feet and higher are included in the obstacle database. It is very important to note that not all obstacles are necessarily charted and therefore may not be contained in the obstacle database. This database is updated on a 56-day cycle. The data contained in the terrain and obstacle databases comes from government agencies. Garmin NOTE: accurately processes and cross-validates the data, but cannot guarantee the accuracy and completeness of the data. The AOPA Airport Directory provides data on airports and heliports throughout the U.S., and offers detailed information for over 5,300 U. S. airports, along with the names and phone numbers of thousands of FBOs. This...
