Table 6-7 Terrain Proximity Terrain/Obstacle Colors and Symbology
Terrain and obstacle information can be displayed on the following pages:
• PFD Inset Map
• Navigation Map Page
• Terrain Proximity Page
• Trip Planning Page
• Flight Plan Page
• AUX - Video Page
Displaying terrain and obstacle information (maps other than the Terrain Proximity Page):
1)
Press the
MAP
Softkey (for the PFD Inset Map, press the
INSET
Softkey).
2)
Press the
TERRAIN
Softkey to display terrain and obstacle data.
The Map - Terrain Proximity Page is the principal map page for viewing Terrain Proximity information. When
Terrain Proximity is selected on maps other than the Terrain Proximity Page, an icon to indicate the feature is
enabled for display and a legend for Terrain Proximity colors are shown (Figure 6-31).
The Navigation Map Page Setup Menu provides a means in addition to the softkey for enabling/disabling
display of terrain and obstacles. The setup menu also controls the map range settings above which terrain and
obstacle data are decluttered from the display. If a map range larger than the map range setting is selected, the
data is removed from the map.
Terrain data can be selected for display independently of obstacle data; however, obstacles recognized by
Terrain Proximity as yellow or red are shown when terrain is selected for display and the map range is within
the setting limit.
Maps besides the Terrain Proximity Page use settings based on those selected for the Navigation Map Page.
The maximum display ranges for obstacles on each map are dependent on the range setting made for the
