TCAS II RA
S
The TCAS II uses transponder replies to determine relative altitude, range, and
bearing of any air traffic control radar beacon system (ATCRBS) or Mode S equipped
aircraft with altitude reporting. Based on the information TCAS II determines the
level of advisory. The TCAS II will not issue RAs for ATCRBS aircraft that reply with
only Mode A information.
Requirements:
•
Installed GTS 8000 or compatible ARINC 429 TCAS II unit
•
GDU 1060 with 60% PFD or 700L PFD
•
Standard style VSI
NUMERIC SPEED INDICATION
GDU 1060/700L: A numeric field displaying current vertical speed is available on
both standard and arc VSIs. The type of field depends on indicator format and, in the
case of arc VSI, aircraft type.
When the TCAS II LRU issues an RA, the
VSI displays red no-fly bands to indicate
areas to avoid. The green band indicates
the desired climb/descent rate.
Standard VSI: This field replaces the trend indicator and
moves up or down as the vertical speed changes. It displays
only in expanded layouts.
GDU 1060: full screen PFD, split MFD/PFD, and split PFD/EIS
GDU 700L: full screen PFD
Arc VSI: Field behavior is dependent upon aircraft type:
For rotorcraft, a stationary field appears when vertical speed
e/- 300 fpm (1.5 mps).
For fixed wing aircraft, the digital value is always present.
