ST3400H PILOT’S GUIDE
Page 4-3
4.5.4 Flight
Plans
The ST3400H overlays the GPS/FMS flight plan over any terrain view,
if a flight plan is available from the GPS /FMS.
NOTE
: The flight plan overlay is for position awareness only and the
information in the flight plan has absolutely no effect or control over
alerting. For this reason, alerting works identically whether the aircraft
is on-flight plan or off-flight plan – without pilot intervention.
NOTE
: Display of DME arcs, Holding Patterns, and Procedure Turns is
not currently supported in the ST3400H with S/W version 1.01. These
flight plan segments will be supported in a future software release.
4.5.5
Airports and Runways
For reference, airports are displayed with runways greater than 2500 feet
within 20nm of the aircraft position. In lower zoom ranges, the airport
runways and runway numbers are depicted on-screen.
4.5.6 Radar
Altimeter
Display
The ST3400H can function as an optional primary or secondary Radar
Altimeter indicator when interfaced to a compatible Radar Altimeter
system. Digital RADALT (Radar Altitude) and a MINS setting window
are provided.
Radar Altitude will not be displayed when a Radar Altimeter is not
installed; however the MINS display is always present and may be used
by the pilot as a reference number.
4.5.7 Traffic
The ST3400H can optionally display nearby transponder equipped
aircraft when interfaced with compatible TAS, TCAS. Standard TCAS
symbology is used to display the relative location and altitude of traffic.
The traffic information is displayed overlaid on terrain.
Note
: If the ST3400H is interfaced to TCAS, the TCAS processor itself
generates the alerts and these are only displayed on the ST3400H.
4.5.8 NVIS
For missions requiring the use of night vision goggles, certain ST3400H
models are equipped with Sandel’s proprietary on-demand Class-B
NVIS capability. Unlike aftermarket NVIS modifications, Sandel’s
unique NVIS feature employs no external filters and does not degrade its
brightness or daylight characteristics when NVIS is OFF.
