Part Six GTS 800 Interface To begin tracking intruder aircraft: 1. Press the cursor knob and highlight STBY. 2. Turn the small right knob to select OPER. 3. Press ENT to confirm operating mode and begin tracking intruder aircraft. Operating Mode is confirmed by the display of "OPER" in the upper right-hand corner of the Traffic Page. NOTE: The FAILED message occurs when the system detects an error and prohibits further traffic display operation as long as this message stays on the screen. User-initiated Test NOTE: A user-initiated test can only be performed when in standby or failed mode. In addition to the power-up test, the GTS 800 series unit performs a continuous self-test. This continuous self-test is performed several times per minute. A userinitiated test of the GTS 8XX series unit interface can also be performed. To perform a user-initiated test: 1. Turn the small right knob to select the Traffic Page. 2. From the Traffic Page, press MENU to display the Page Menu. 3. Turn the small right knob to select "Self Test?" and press ENT. Voice Announcements See the GTS 8XX Series Pilot's Guide for information on voice announcements. Switching Between Standby and Operating Modes The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be displayed. The ability to switch out of standby into operating mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning the airspace around the airport before takeoff. To switch into Operating Mode from Standby Mode: 1. Press the cursor knob and highlight "STBY". Turn the small right knob to select "OPER?". 2. Press ENT to confirm and place the GTS 8XX series unit in operating mode. NOTE: The GTS 8XX series unit switches out of standby into the 6-NM display range. If your aircraft has a squat switch and you do not manually switch out of standby, the GTS 8XX series unit will automatically switch out of standby 8 to 10 seconds after takeoff. To switch into Standby Mode from the Traffic Page: 1. Press the cursor knob and highlight "OPER". 2. Turn the small right knob to select "STBY?". 3. Press ENT to confirm and place the GTS 8XX series unit in standby mode. NOTE: If your aircraft has a squat switch, STBY is not displayed while you are airborne but will go into standby 24 seconds after landing. This delay allows the GTS 8XX series unit to remain in the operating mode during a touch-and-go maneuver. 66 190-00356-30 Rev H
