HAZARD AVOIDANCE
L-3 SKYWATCH TRAFFIC ADVISORY SYSTEM
NOTE:
SKYWATCH Traffic Advisory System (TAS) takes priority over TIS services. If SKYWATCH is installed,
no TIS data is displayed.
USER-INITIATED TEST
SKYWATCH performs an initial self-test at power-up. In addition, it performs a continuous self-test several
times per minute. Refer to the L-3 Skywatch Pilot’s Guide for a detailed discussion of the SKY497 TAS
System.
Performing a user-initiated test:
1)
With SKYWATCH in ‘Standby’ or ‘Failed’ mode, press the
TEST
Softkey.
2)
If SKYWATCH successfully completes the test, the aural message “Traffic Alert System Test Passed” is generated.
SKYWATCH transitions to
OPERATE
mode.
3)
If a failure is detected during the test, the aural message “Traffic Alert System Test Failed” is generated. The unit
reverts to STANDBY mode.
4)
If the test fails, press the
TEST
Softkey again.
5)
If the self-test fails again, refer to the L-3 Skywatch Pilot’s Guide.
Figure 6-65 shows the Traffic Map symbols that display when a user-initiated test is completed
successfully:
