TAS Controls and Displays

TAS ONLY MODE

In this mode the screen’s origin
point is 1/3 up from the bottom
of the screen. Only TAS infor-
mation is displayed. This mode
is maintained unless another
mode is manually selected.
The range displayed is that
selected on the TAS control
panel. A 2 nm range ring is
displayed on ranges 3, 5, 10,
and 15 nm. The 2 nm range
ring consists of discrete dots
(cyan) at each of the 12 clock
positions. The 2 nm range ring is not displayed on ranges 20 and 40 nm;
instead, a half-range ring is displayed. The half-range ring consists of dis-
crete dashes (cyan). The TAS operational mode is annunciated in the
lower left hand corner of the screen.

Note:

On the “TAS ONLY” display “WX ON” will be annunciated in the

upper right hand corner if the weather radar is transmitting. See Weather
Radar operating guide.

At power-up the screen initially displays the Radar with TAS Overlay
mode. When the Test mode is selected on the TAS control panel the self
test pattern is displayed unless TAS system failures are detected. If sys-
tem failures are detected the screen is blanked and a list of faults is dis-
played.
