2.4 PFD ANNUNCIATIONS AND ALERTING FUNCTIONS
NOTE: For a detailed description of annunciations and alerts, refer to Appendix A.
ALERTS WINDOW
Messages appear in the Alerts Window (in the lower right corner of the PFD) when a warning, caution, advisory
alert, or G1000 message advisory occurs. This window allows system alerts to be displayed simultaneously.
The FMS Knob can be used to scroll through the alert messages. The Alerts Window is enabled/disabled by
pressing the ALERTS Softkey.
System alert messages are provided to make the pilot aware of G1000 system problems or status and may
not require pilot action. The ALERTS Softkey label flashes white when a system alert message is generated.
Pressing the ALERTS Softkey acknowledges the presence of the alert and opens the Alerts Window.
ANNUNCIATION WINDOW
NOTE: New alerts, regardless of priority, are displayed at the top of the Annunciation Window, separated by
a white line from acknowledged alerts. Once acknowledged, they are sequenced based on priority.
The Annunciation Window appears to the right of the Vertical Speed Indicator and displays abbreviated
annunciation text for aircraft alerts. Text color is based on alert level: warnings appear in red, cautions in yellow,
advisory alerts in white.
