4.3 TRAFFIC
TRAFFIC SOURCE
The aera 795/796 is compatible with two different traffic sources; TIS-A traffic via
a Garmin Mode S Transponder (GTX 330), or ADS-B/TIS-B traffic via a GDL 39. When
the aera 795/796 is configured with both a Mode S transponder capable of receiving
TIS-A traffic and a GDL 39 capable of receiving ADS-B/TIS-B traffic the aera 795/796
will automatically switch between traffic sources. The following conditions describe
the traffic display logic.
•If the GTX is not receiving TIS-A traffic data, GDL 39 ADS-B traffic will be displayed.
•If the GDL 39 is receiving both air-to-air ADS-B traffic data and ground uplink
TIS-B traffic, then the GDL 39 ADS-B traffic will be displayed.
•If the GTX is receiving TIS-A traffic, and the GDL 39 is not receiving ground uplink
TIS-B traffic, then GTX TIS-A traffic will be displayed.
If more than one traffic source is configured, the current traffic source is annunciated
in the upper left corner of the Traffic Page.
