TAWS Alerts
“Five-Hundred” Aural Alert
The purpose of the aural alert message
“Five-Hun-
dred”
is to provide an advisory alert to the pilot that
the aircraft is five-hundred feet above terrain. When
the aircraft descends within 500 feet of terrain, the
aural message
“Five-hundred”
is generated. There are no
display annunciations or pop-up alerts that accompany
the aural message.
TAWS Not Available Alert
Garmin TAWS requires a 3-D GPS navigation solu-
tion along with specific vertical accuracy minimums.
Should the navigation solution become degraded, or if
the aircraft is out of the database coverage area, the an-
nunciation “TER N/A” is generated in the annunciation
window. When the GPS signal is re-established and the
aircraft is within the database coverage area, the “TER
N/A” annunciation is removed.

TAWS Failure Alert
TAWS continually monitors several system-critical
items, such as database validity, hardware status, and
GPS status. If the terrain/obstacle database is not avail-
able, the aural message
“TAWS System Failure”
is issued
along with the “TER FAIL” annunciation.
