Once the aircraft is airborne, TIS switches from Standby to Operating mode. The G1000 displays ‘TIS
OPERATING’ in the upper left corner and begins to display traffic on the Traffic Map Page. TIS Traffic
Advisories (TA) are issued to alert the crew to intruding aircraft.
Once the aircraft is on the ground, TIS switches from operating mode to standby mode. The Traffic Map
Page displays ‘STANDBY’. The pilot can use the page menu or softkeys to switch between Standby (STBY)
and Operating (ON) modes and manually override automatic operation.
