Getting Started Annunciations Annunciations Advisory flags, data flags, and messages appear on the display to give information about the status of the GMX 200 or to provide operating information. Advisory Flags Annunciations will appear on the upper left side of the display to provide advisories for Traffic, Terrain, and Lightning. Advisory information is monitored and displayed regardless of the selected function. Advisory flags will flash for approximately 10 seconds when they first appear and then turn solid while they are still valid. Advisory icons will reduce in size if more than two advisory conditions exist. Advisory Flags ADS-B Traffic The Traffic advisory flag will appear on the left side of the display when the GDL 90 reports a traffic alert. This Traffic advisory is only available when the ADS-B system with a UAT data link is installed and operational. Refer to the TIS Traffic section for a description of TIS-A and TIS-B. TAS/TCAD/TIS-A Traffic The Traffic Advisory/Alert will appear in amber on the left side of the display when the traffic sensor indicates an alerting condition. Refer to the TIS Traffic section for a description of TIS-A and TIS-B. Radar The Radar Alert flag will appear when Target Alerts are present on two consecutive sweeps within 10° of your heading. Terrain The Terrain advisory flag will appear on the left side of the display when the terrain surface or obstacle altitude is within approximately 100 feet of your altitude and within approximately two minutes of flight in any direction. Lightning The Lightning advisory flag will show on the left side of the display when the WX500 sends an indication that lightning has been detected within 50 NM of your location. See the WX500 manual for details about range and other capabilities. Data Flags Data flags appear on the left side of the display to notify you when there is a loss of reported information. The data usually displayed, such as lightning or nearby terrain, may still exist, but may not be displayed for technical reasons. For instance, when the amber TRAF data flag appears it means that the GMX 200 is not receiving Traffic information from the sensor. Any existing traffic will not be displayed on the GMX 200. All data flags are yellow unless otherwise indicated. ADS-B Status Annunciation When the GMX 200 Code Edit option is enabled, an annunciation will appear in the top left portion of the display to indicate the Flight ID broadcast status and the current ADS-B code. The top half will indicate the operation being used: Broadcast FID (FID), Broadcast VFR (VFR), or Stand-By (STBY). The bottom half will show the transponder code that is being used. When a ADS-B code has not been selected, the code in the bottom half will be replaced by dashes. 190-00607-02 Rev C
