1.7  SWITCHING BeTWeeN STANDBy AND OPeRATING MODeS

The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be displayed.  The ability to switch 

out of standby into operating mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning 
the airspace around the airport before takeoff.  Operating Mode is confirmed by the 
display of ‘OPER’ in the upper right-hand corner of the Traffic Page (Figure 4).

Switching to Operating Mode from Standby Mode:

1)  Press the small 

right

 knob to activate the cursor and highlight ‘STBY’.

2)  Turn the small 

right

 knob to select ‘OPER?’.

3)  Press the 

ENT

 Key to confirm and place the GTS 8XX in operating mode, 

the GTS 8XX switches out of standby into the 6-nm display range.

 

NOTE: 

The GTS 8XX will automatically switch out of standby 8 to 10 seconds 

after takeoff, which is determined by ground speed or by a transition of the 
aircraft squat switch (if connected).

Switching to Standby Mode from the Traffic Page:

1)  Press the small right knob to activate the cursor and highlight ‘OPER’.
2)  Turn the small right knob to select ‘STBY?’.
3)  Press the ENT Key to confirm and place the GTS 8XX in standby mode.

 

NOTE: 

The GTS 8XX goes into standby mode 24 seconds after landing, which 

is determined by ground speed or by a transition of the aircraft squat switch 
(if connected).  This delay allows the GTS 8XX to remain out of standby during 
a touch-and-go maneuver.
