ADS-B Monitor

Press the FUNC button five times to display the Altitude Monitor

screen The ADS-B Monitor is only available on installations that

include an ADS-B position source. The ADS-B Monitor provides a

display of the position information that is being transmitted in ADS-B

position reports. This can provide confirmation that the correct

information is being transmitted, particularly where the Global

Positioning System (GPS) source is remote from the transponder.
In the event that valid position information is NOT available from the

GPS, the latitude and longitude display will be replaced by dashes. If

no valid latitude and longitude is shown, then ADS-B position

information is NOT being transmitted.
Loss of ADS-B position information will also result in a WARNING

message being displayed.

1.7

WARNING MESSAGES

If the transponder detects a problem, the screen will indicate
WARNING

and a brief statement of the problem. Depending on the

nature of the problem, your transponder may not be replying to

interrogations. Note the message on the screen and pass that

information to your avionics maintenance organization. The

WARNING message should clear when the event has cleared. Press
ENT

to clear the message at any time; if the fault is still present the

message may reappear.

1.8

FAULT ANNUNCIATION

If the transponder detects an internal failure, the screen will indicate
FAULT

and a brief statement of the problem. No replies will be made

to interrogations when a fault is detected.
Some FAULT indications can be recovered by switching the

transponder off and back on again, although in all cases a FAULT

code implies that there is a fault with the transponder or the

installation. Note the FAULT message at the bottom of the screen

and pass that information to your avionics maintenance organization.
