The following test provides a scenario that will converge and intercept the GTS 800 to assure
proper operational and surveillance functions.

softkey.
2. Position ramp tester at 90 degrees.
3. Select the following on the ramp tester:
•
Intruder type: ATCRBS.
•
Intruder Start Distance: 10 nm
•
Intruder Start Altitude: 600 ft above field elevation
•
Vertical Speed: 0 fpm
•
Velocity: 600 kts
4. Initiate the intruder scenario and observe the following:
•
Traffic should be acquired at approximately 10 NM at 90 degree bearing and co-
altitude. Observe intruder closes on own aircraft at a rate of 0.1 NM/sec. Verify
that only a single target is displayed in the expected quadrant.
•
The intruder should transition from Other Traffic (displayed as an open diamond
with +06 displayed above), to proximate traffic (displayed as a filled white
diamond with +06 displayed above), to a Traffic Advisory (TA) alarm (yellow filled
circle with +06 displayed above.)
NOTE
The aural TA annunciations are muted if the height above terrain is
below 400 feet.
If no other service is to be performed, continue to the return-to-service checks in Section 9.
