that are within 2000 feet above or below the ownship
altitude are shown.
Altitude option (relative/Absolute)
The altitude option lets you select between relative
and absolute pressure altitude in hundreds of feet.
The altitude option choice is shown on the upper
left corner of the screen while in the graphic display
option. When Relative Altitude is selected, the altitude
value on the traffic is shown relative to your altitude.
A “+” indicates the target is above your altitude. A
“-” indicates the target is below your altitude. For
instance, if a value of +80 is shown, the value means
that the indicated traffic is 8000 feet above your alti-
tude. When Absolute Altitude is selected, if a value of
121 is shown, the value means that the indicated traf-
fic is at 12,100 feet absolute pressure altitude. Abso-
lute Pressure altitude does not show a + or -. Remem-
ber that Absolute Pressure altitude can be substantially
different than the baro-corrected altitude shown on the
altimeter in your aircraft.
