Garmin GTS 8XX Series
Interface
Introduction
The Garmin GTS 8XX Series unit is a Traffic Advisory
System (TAS - GTS 800 and GTS 820) or Traffic Alert and
Collision Avoidance System (TCAS I - GTS 850). The GTS
8XX Series enhances flight crew situational awareness by
displaying traffic information for transponder-equipped
aircraft. The GTS 8XX Series also provides visual and
aural traffic alerts including voice announcements to assist
in visually acquiring traffic. The GTS 800 and GTS 820
are TAS systems, the GTS 850 is a TSO-approved TCAS I
system. The GTS 8XX uses active interrogations of Mode
A/C/S transponders to provide Traffic Advisories.
The Standby Screen appears when the
GTS 8XX series passes the power-up test.
NOTE: when the system is in standby, the
GTS 8XX series does not transmit, interro-
gate, or track intruders aircraft.
