MFD Displays
4.4.7 Issued 4/95 SW 06/07/08/11
a Traffic Advisory (TA). The
color will be cyan when there
are no intruders classified as a
TA. TCAS I installations will
indicate TA during normal
operation.
TA/RA - Indicates normal opera-
tion for TCAS II. This annunci-
ation will not appear when
TCAS I is installed.
Range
Range is annunciated in cyan
without an alpha prefix immedi-
ately to the left of the TCAS sta-
tus information. The ranges avail-
able are 2, 5, 10, 20 and 40 NM.
Range Rings
• Full range ring consisting of
cyan radial tick marks positioned
every 30 degrees to represent
the 12 clock positions plus inter-
vening cyan dots every 10
degrees.
• If range is less than 20 NM, a
two NM range ring consisting of
cyan dots positioned every 30
degrees to represent the 12 clock
positions.
• If range is greater than 10 NM,
a standard map half range ring
with no range annunciation.
• If range is 2 NM, the outer
range ring is replaced with the 2
NM range ring consisting of 12
dots (and no tic marks) around
the circle.
Above/Norm/Below
All TCAS displays will annunciate
a cyan “ABV” or “BLW” when
above or below respectively are
selected on the TCAS controller.
Neither annunciation is provided
when normal is selected. This
same three character field is also
used to present own aircraft alti-
tude when actual altitude (FL) is
selected. The FL annunciation
has priority over ABV and BLW.
No-Bearing Traffic
During any TCAS display, up to
two no-bearing traffic messages
may be required. The format for
these messages is “TA 5.7NM/-
06
≠
” or “RA 0.8NM/+01
≠
” where -
06 and +01 are the relative alti-
tudes of the intruder aircraft.
Relative altitudes (including the +
or - sign) will be replaced by a 3
digit actual altitude in hundreds of
feet whenever the conditions for
display of actual altitude have
been satisfied. RA messages
will be red and TA messages will
be yellow. The vertical speed
arrow, when climb or descend is
indicated, will be displayed imme-
diately to the right of the altitude
digits.
FLXXX and FL
A white FLXXX is annunciated
only when actual intruder altitude
(FL) is being displayed. This
annunciation will be absent when
relative intruder altitudes are dis-
played. XXX will be own aircraft
actual altitude in hundreds of feet
as provided. This annunciation
