The T/Wx (TCAS/Weather) mode but-
ton is necessary in installations using
the weather radar indicator as the
traffic display. In these installations,
the T/Wx switch is used to select
between Weather Only, Weather with
TCAS Traffic and Traffic Only modes.
Details of the various modes are described later in this section under
Weather Radar Indicators.
TCAS RNG (Range) buttons are used to select the
range on the traffic display. The range selections are
3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 40. All ranges are in nautical
miles.
Note: This feature may not be available in all installa-
tions or this feature may be superseded by a range
control on the traffic display bezel.
The FL (Flight Level) push button replaces Intruder’s
relative altitude with absolute altitude for 15 seconds.
During this period the altitude is displayed in flight level
format. That is, 19,000 ft. is displayed as 190. After 15
seconds the absolute reading reverts to relative alti-
tude.
The FL function is flagged below 18,000 feet MSL on most traffic dis-
plays unless barometric corrected altitude is available from an air data
source. FL is inhibited on the IVA 81A/C/D and the TID 66A/D units,
but not on the Radar indicator when used with GC 362A.
If FL is selected while inhibited, “FL - - -” will show in place of own
flight level.
The A/B (Above/Below) push button selects altitude display limits.
The Above/Below selection has no effect on the TCAS logic giving
TAs. There are three choices available.
ABOVE Traffic that is between 8700 feet above and 2700 feet below
own aircraft will be displayed.
Typically ABOVE is used during the
climb phase of flight.
NORMAL Traffic that is between
2700 feet above and 2700 feet below
will be displayed. Typically NORMAL
is used during the en route phase of
flight.
