Section 3: HTAWS Alerts Alerts are issued when flight conditions meet parameters that are set within HTAWS software algorithms. HTAWS alerts employ either a CAUTION or a WARNING alert severity level. When an alert is issued, visual annunciations are displayed. Aural alerts are simultaneously issued. Annunciations appear in a dedicated field in the lower left corner of the display. HTAWS Annunciation Field HTAWS Annunciation Field Annunciations are color-coded according to the HTAWS Alert Summary table. Pop-up terrain alerts will occur if an HTAWS alert is activated while not on the HTAWS page. There are two options when an alert is displayed: To acknowledge the pop-up alert and return to the currently viewed page: Press the CLR button. To acknowledge the pop-up alert and quickly access the HTAWS Page: Press the ENT button. NOTE: To further capture the attention of the pilot, HTAWS issues aural (voice) messages that accompany visual annunciations and pop-up alerts. Some aural messages are configurable during installation of the system. For a summary of aural messages, see the HTAWS Alert Summary table. 54 190-00356-30 Rev H
