TCAS I Control Panel

The CP 66B can have up to four separate knobs as shown above.
Depending upon the system interface, the Range Knob and/or Display
Selector may be removed.

The CP 66B amber Fail Annunciator will light during self test and in
normal operation will flash if a system failure has been detected. If a
failure has been detected, turning the Power Switch to OFF will turn
off the flashing annunciator.

Power Switch:

The OFF position deactivates selector switches and
push buttons and extinguishes FAIL annunciation if
on.

The SBY position places the TCAS in Standby mode.
In Standby mode, all TCAS broadcast, surveillance,

and tracking operations are disabled and the traffic display is blanked
except for a “TCAS STBY” mode annunciation.

The ON position enables the TCAS broadcast, tracking and surveil-
lance operations at the selected range, display and altitude limit.

Pressing the TEST button in the center of the knob initiates a compre-
hensive self test lasting approximately eight seconds. Refer to the
Appendix for a description of the self test function.
