KMD 550/850 Traffic Addendum |
The Traffic Function of the Bendix/King KMD 550/850 Multi Function Display allows for the display and control of several models of traffic avoidance systems. Some examples are TCAS I (Traffic Collision Avoidance System), TCAS II, TAS (Traffic Avoidance System) and TIS (Traffic Information Service).
This Pilot’s Guide Addendum describes the operation of the KMD 550/850 display for controlling the display of traffic. The detailed description of the general operation of the KMD 550/850 is contained in the other sections of the KMD 550/850 Pilot’s Guide. For detailed information on the proper use and interpretation of the displayed traffic data when using TCAS I, TCAS II and TAS systems, please reference the pilot’s guide that is provided with the traffic avoidance system.
The traffic avoidance system is used for detecting and tracking aircraft near your own aircraft. Aircraft detected, tracked, and displayed are referred to as Intruders. Intruders are shown as symbols on the traffic display. The system identifies the relative threat of each Intruder by using various symbols and colors. The intruder’s altitude, relative to your own aircraft’s altitude, is annunciated if the Intruder is reporting altitude. A trend arrow is used to indicate if the Intruder is climbing or descending more than 500 feet per minute.
The Traffic Information Service (TIS) is a data link service that provides information similar to VFR radar traffic advisories normally received over voice radio. The data is received from the terminal Mode S radar system through a TIS capable Mode S transponder to the KMD display once per radar scan (approximately every 5 seconds).
TIS provides the relative position, relative altitude, altitude trend, and estimated ground track angle for as many as 8 intruders that are within 7 NM horizontally and +3,500/-3000 feet vertically of the aircraft receiving TIS. Only aircraft with operating transponders that are within the surveillance volume of a TIS Mode S radar are visible to TIS. Terminal Mode S radars equipped with TIS provide the service to 55 NM (or possibly greater) of the radar location, and as low as the "line of site" limitation inherent to radar surveillance.
ATC procedures and the “see and avoid concept” will continue to be the primary means of ensuring aircraft separation. However, if communication is lost with ATC, TCAS/TAS/TIS adds a significant backup for collision avoidance.
