HAZARD AVOIDANCE TAS ALERTS When the traffic system detects a new TA, the following occur: • A single "Traffic!" voice alert is generated, followed by additional voice information about the bearing, relative altitude, and approximate distance from the intruder that triggered the TA (Table 6-18). The announcement "Traffic! 12 o'clock, high, four miles," would indicate the traffic is in front of own aircraft, above own altitude, and approximately four nautical miles away. • A TRAFFIC Annunciation appears at the top right of the airspeed on the PFD, flashing for five seconds and remains displayed until no TAs are detected in the area (Figure 6-93). • The PFD Inset Map is automatically displayed with TA traffic. If the bearing of TA traffic cannot be determined (Figures 6-94 and 6-97), a yellow text banner will be displayed in the center of the Traffic Map Page and in the lower-left of the PFD inset map instead of a TA symbol. The text will indicate "TA" followed by the distance, relative altitude, and vertical trend arrow for the TA traffic, if known. A TA will be displayed for at least eight seconds, even if the condition(s) that initially triggered the TA are no longer present.

If a new TA occurs, an aural announcement will be heard. 190-01255-00 Rev. A Garmin G1000H™ Pilot's Guide for the Bell 407GX 357
