TIS-A ALERTS
A TIS-A audio alert is generated whenever the number of Traffic Advisories on the
GPSMAP 695/696 screen increases from one scan to the next. Limiting Traffic Advisories
only reduces the “nuisance” alerting due to proximate aircraft. For example, when the
first Traffic Advisories appear on the TIS-A display, the user is alerted audibly. So long
as a single aircraft remains on the TIS-A display, no further audio alert is generated. If
a second (or more) aircraft appears on the screen, a new audio alert is sounded.
If the number of Traffic Advisories on the TIS-A display decreases and then increases,
a new audio alert is sounded. The TIS-A audio alert is also generated whenever TIS-A
service becomes available. The following TIS-A audio alerts are available:
• “Trafc”—TIS-Atrafcalertreceived.
• “TrafcNotAvailable”—TIS-Aserviceisnotavailableoroutofrange.
