6.11 KTA 870 TRAFFIC
 NOTE:  Refer to the Honeywell® KTA 870 Pilot’s Guide for a detailed discussion of the KTA 870 TAS.
TAS SYMBOLOGY
The	 Traffic	 Advisory	 System	(TAS)	is	designed	 to	help	 in	detection	 and	avoidance	 of	other	 aircraft.		 TAS	uses	
an	on-board	 interrogator-processor	 and	the	Mode	S	 transponder	 for	the	 air-to-air	 traffic	data	link.	 	 Traffic	 is	
displayed	using	the	symbols	shown	in	Table	6-36.
TAS SymbolDescription
Non-Threat Traffic
Proximity Advisory  (PA)
Traffic Advisory  (TA)
Traffic Advisory Off Scale
Table 6-36  TAS Symbol Description
A	Non-threat	 Advisory,	shown	as	an	 open	 white	 diamond,	 indicates	that	an	intruding	 aircraft	is	at	 greater	 than	
±1200	feet	relative	altitude	or	the	distance	is	beyond	5	nm.
A	Proximity	 Advisory	indicates	that	the	intruding	 aircraft	is	within	 ±1200	 feet	and	 is	within	 5	nm	 range,	 but	
is still not considered a threat.
A	Traffic	 Advisory	 (TA)	alerts	 the	crew	 to	a	potentially	 hazardous	intruding	aircraft.		Closing	rate,	distance,	
and	vertical	 separation	 meet	TA	criteria.		 A	Traffic	 Advisory	 that	is	beyond	 the	selected	 display	range	is	indicated	
by	a	half	TA	symbol	at	the	edge	of	the	screen	at	the	relative	bearing	of	the	intruder.

OPERATION
 NOTE:  The traffic unit may be configured to automatically change from STANDBY to NORMAL mode 
after takeoff or from NORMAL to STANDBY mode after landing.  Refer to the KTA 870 Pilot's Guide for 
additional operating instructions..
Selecting	 the	STANDBY	Softkey	 forces	the	unit	 into	Standby	 Mode.		Selecting	 the	NORMAL	Softkey	 allows	
the	KTA	870	to	switch	from	Standby	Mode	to	Operating	Mode	as	necessary.	
Switching from standby mode to operating mode:
On the Traffic Page, select the NORMAL Softkey.
Or:
1) Press the MENU Key and turn the small FMS knob to select Normal Mode.
2) Press the ENT Key to place the KTA 870 in the operating mode.
Switching from operating mode to standby mode:
On the Traffic Page, select the STANDBY Softkey.
Or:
1) Press the MENU Key and turn the small FMS knob to select Standby Mode.
2) Press the ENT Key to place the KTA 870 in the Standby mode.
System  Self Test
1) Set the range to 2/6 nm to allow for display of full traffic test pattern.
2) Select the TEST Softkey.
3) Self test takes approximately eight seconds to complete.  When completed successfully, traffic symbols are 
displayed and a voice alert “TAS System Test Okay” is heard.  In the event that the system test fails, the system 
reverts to Standby Mode and a voice alert “TAS System Test Fail” is heard.
Displaying traffic on the Traffic Map Page:
1) Turn the large FMS Knob to select the Map Page Group.
2) Turn the small FMS Knob to select the Traffic Map Page.
3) Select the NORMAL Softkey to begin displaying traffic.  OPERATING is displayed in the Traffic mode field.
4) Select the ALT MODE Softkey to change the altitude volume.
5) Select the STANDBY Softkey to place the system in the Standby mode.  STANDBY is displayed in the Traffic 
mode field.
6) Turn the RANGE Knob clockwise to display a larger area or counter-clockwise to display a smaller area.
