ICON DISPLAY

WINDSHEAR ICONS WITH SEARCH LINES

The windshear icon shown on the display represents the location of the

event in both range and azimuth. In the left example, the windshear event

begins about 2 nm ahead and 25° to the right of the aircraft. The center

example shows two icons, indicating two windshear events. The yellow and

black search lines help locate the icon in case a long range is selected.

Visual/textual and audio PWS alert annunciations may vary by
display system. The following information is typical, but your system
may differ. Consult the display system user guide for details.

VISUAL/TEXTUALPWS ALERT ANNUNCIATIONS

Visual/textual Caution and Warning Alerts are annunciated on the
Electronic Displays.



Caution Visual Alert:

Amber “W/S AHEAD” or similar



Warning Visual Alert:

Red “W/S AHEAD” or similar.

AURAL PWS ALERT ANNUNCIATIONS

Caution Aural Alerts

may be one of the following (selected at

installation):



Option 1: “Whoop, Whoop”



Option 2: “Monitor Radar Display”

Warning Aural Alerts

are as follows:



Take-Off: “Windshear Ahead, Windshear Ahead”



Approach: “Go Around, Windshear Ahead”

PWS SYSTEM FAILURE ANNUNCIATION

System failuresare annunciated on the Electronic Displays.
Examples: PRED W/S, PWS INOP, or NO PWS.
