Scenario
Arms the associated scenario and the diagrams will reflect the
initial positions of the own aircraft and intruder.
Page up/down
Pages through the list of available scenarios.
Scenario
Performance
Requirements
Lists the altitude, vertical speed and ground speed limits that have
to be maintained by the own aircraft in order to obtain the
requested voice call-out. This display will display red text and flash
to an exceeded limits display.
In the Toolbar area are buttons for the following functions:
Play
Activates the armed scenario if the own aircraft is within the
specified limits displayed for the selected scenario.
Stop
Stops the active scenario.
5.14.2.Editable Scenarios
This page is selectable from the
tab suite and allows you to set the flight plan for each
of two intruder aircraft in a new scenario.
The touchpoints for each of 2 intruders allow you to set the initial and final position of the
intruder.
Initial Bearing
Initial bearing of intruder from this aircraft ( + or - 180 ve
is right)
Initial Distance
Initial distance in nautical miles of intruder from this aircraft
Initial Relative
Altitude
Initial altitude of the intruder, relative to this aircraft (+ve is above)
Transponder Type Intruders fitted TCAS equipment operating mode. Selectable are
MODE A, MODE C, MODE S or None
Final Bearing
Final bearing of intruder from this aircraft ( + or - 180 ve is
right)
Final Distance
Final distance in nautical miles of intruder from this aircraft
Final Relative
Altitude
Final altitude of intruder from this aircraft (+ve is above)
Speed
Speed of the intruder in Knots
Clear Intruder
Clears all the instructor selections for that intruder.
In the Toolbar area are buttons for the following functions:

NOTE:
TCAS advises on traffic which will encroach into this aircrafts safe airspace. It does this by
dynamically predicting traffic paths.
Since the predictions are constantly adjusted for this aircrafts circumstances a single
description of the effects of these scenarios is not possible
With this aircraft flying straight and level at constant altitude, constant heading and track,
constant speed; the scenario "SHOULD" induce the conflict.
TCAS prediction functions adjust for this aircrafts altitude. To consistently demonstrate
scenario conflicts this aircraft is best at 15000 feet
