AIRSPACE ALERTS

The Airspace Alert feature provides a message alert when the aircraft is approaching or near a controlled or

special-use airspace. The altitude buffer setting increases the range above or below an airspace for which an
alert is generated; the default value is 200 feet. Alerts for the following airspaces can be turned on/off from
the System Setup Page:

• Class B/TMA

• Class C/TCA

• Class D

• Restricted

• MOA (Military)

• Other airspaces

Turning Airspace Alerts off does not affect the alerts listed on the Nearest Airspaces Page or the airspace

boundaries depicted on the Navigation Map Page.

Turning an airspace alert on or off:

1) Use the FMS Knob to select the System Setup Page.

2)

Press the FMS Knob momentarily to activate the flashing cursor.

3) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight the desired field in the ‘Airspace Alerts’ Box.
4) Turn the small FMS Knob clockwise to turn the airspace alert ON or counterclockwise to turn the alert OFF.

Changing the altitude buffer distance setting:

1) Use the FMS Knob to select the System Setup Page.

2)

Press the FMS Knob momentarily to activate the flashing cursor.

3) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight the altitude buffer field in the ‘Airspace Alerts’ Box.
4) Enter an altitude buffer value and press the ENT Key.

ARRIVAL ALERTS

The Arrival Alert Box on the System Setup Page allows the Alerts Window arrival alerts to be turned

ON/OFF, and the alert trigger distance (up to 99.9 units) set for alerts in the Alerts Window and the PFD
Navigation Status Box. An arrival alert can be set to notify the pilot with a message upon reaching a user-
specified distance from the final destination (the direct-to waypoint or the last waypoint in a flight plan).
When Arrival Alerts is set to ON, and the set distance is reached, an “Arrival at waypoint” message is displayed
in the PFD Navigation Status Box, and a “WPT ARRIVAL - Arriving at waypoint - [xxxx]” is displayed in the
Alerts Window. When Arrival Alerts is set to OFF, only the PFD Navigation Status Box message “Arriving
at waypoint” is displayed, and it is displayed when the time to the final destination is approximately ten
seconds.
