INTRODUCTION WARNING: Terrain data is obtained from third party sources. Garmin is not able to independently Warnings and Cautions verify the accuracy of this data which should be used only as an aid for situational awareness. Ter- rain data must not be used as the sole basis for decisions or maneuvers to avoid terrain or obstacles. Terrain data must not be used for navigation. CAUTION: Use the 400/500 Series Units at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully re

Section 1 PART ONE: TRAFFIC INFORMATION SERVICE (TIS) INTERFACE TIS Operation and Symbology Section 1: TIS Operation and Symbology TIS Operation NOTE: Part One of this Addendum assumes the user has experience operating the 400/500 Series units and the Garmin GTX 330 Transponder. The Traffic Information Service (TIS) provides a graphic display of traffic advisory information in the cockpit for non-TCAS equipped aircraft. TIS is a ground-based service providing relative location of all How

TIS Limitations Section 1 TIS Operation and Symbology NOTE: This section on TIS Limitations is not comprehensive. Garmin recommends the user review the TIS Limitations section of the Aeronautical Information Manual, Section 1-3-5. TIS is NOT intended to be used as a collision avoidance system and does not relieve the pilot responsibility to “see and avoid” other aircraft. TIS should not be used for avoidance maneuvers during IMC or other times when there is no visual contact with the int

TIS information is collected one radar scan prior to the scan during which the uplink occurs. Section 1 Therefore, the surveillance information is approximately 5 seconds old. In order to present the intrud- TIS Operation and Symbology ers in a “real time” position, the TIS ground station uses a “predictive algorithm” in its tracking software. This algorithm uses track history data to extrapolate intruders to their expected positions consistent with the time of display in the cockpit. Oc

TIS Symbology Section 1 TIS traffic is displayed on the 400/500 Series unit according to TCAS symbology, graphically displayed TIS Operation and Symbology on a dedicated graphical page (Traffic Page; see below), and on the moving Map Page. A Traffic Advisory (TA) symbol appears as a solid yellow circle (or half circle on the outer range ring if the traffic is outside the range of the dedicated Traffic Page). All other traffic is displayed as a hollow white diamond. Altitude deviation from own a

Section 3: TIS Operational Procedures Section 3 TIS Operational Procedures Introduction TIS warns the user with voice and visual traffic advisories whenever it predicts an intruder to be a threat (see sidebar). The user should not start evasive maneuvers using information from the 400/500 Intruder Aircraft display or on a traffic advisory only. The display and advisories are intended only for assistance in visually locating the traffic, due to the lack in resolution and coordination ability. Th
