WEATHER
This document describes the Hazard Avoidance features
of the G1000 system. The main hazards to flight safety are
flying in or near weather, flying in close proximity to the
terrain and other flight traffic in close proximity.
The information contained in this section assumes un-
derstanding of the G1000 Multi Function Display.
This section is divided into groups as follows:
Weather
• GDL 69A (XM Weather)
• GWX 68
• WX 500 Stormscope
TAWS/Terrain
• Terrain Proximity
• TAWS (Terrain Awareness Warning System)
Traffic
• TIS (Traffic Information System)
• TAS (Traffic Advisory System)
7.1 WEATHER
CAUTION: GDL 69A NEXRAD weather data is to
be used for long-range planning purposes only.
Due to inherent delays and relative age of the
data that can be received, NEXRAD weather data
should not be used for short-range avoidance of
weather.
WARNING: Use of any GDL 69A Weather Product
for thunderstorm penetration is prohibited.
Weather information provided by the GDL 69
is approved only for weather avoidance, not
penetration.

WEATHER
GDL 69A WEATHER AND DIGITAL
AUDIO ENTERTAINMENT
The GDL 69A is a remote sensor that is capable of re-
ceiving XM Weather and displaying it on the G1000 Multi
Function Display and the Primary Flight Display Inset
Map. The GDL 69A is also capable of receiving XM Radio
Services. XM Weather and XM Radio operate in the S-
band frequency range to provide continuous uplink capa-
bilities at any altitude throughout North America.
NOTE: Before the GDL 69A can be used, the unit
must be activated by XM Satellite Radio. The XM
Satellite Radio Activation Instruction Sheet con-
tains important information required to initiate
XM Satellite Radio Subscription for the GDL 69A.
This sheet was given to the aircraft owner at the
time of delivery.
NOTE: Refer to the G1000 Option pilot’s guide
for information on the XM entertainment radio
segment of the GDL 69A.
Radio IDs
The GDL 69A are shipped with a Data Radio ID and an
Audio Radio ID. You must obtain the Radio IDs of your
receiver(s) before subscribing to XM services. The IDs are
attached to the XM Satellite Radio Activation Instructions
sheet included with the unit. They are also printed on a
label on the back of the unit and are displayed on the XM
Information Page. Contact the installer if you are unable
to locate the Radio IDs.
Activating XM Radio Services
To activate the XM Radio Weather Service:
1. Turn the large FMS knob to select the Auxiliary
Page Group. Turn the small FMS knob to
display the AUX - XM Page.
2. Press the INFO softkey to display the XM
Information Page.
3. Contact XM Satellite Radio through the Internet

Displaying Weather Data on the Navigation
Map Page
When appropriately configured, the Navigation Map
Page displays NEXRAD, Cell Movement, TFRs and XM
Lightning data. This capability improves situational
awareness, which makes it easier to relate storm activity to
airports, navaids, obstacles and other ground references.
Navigation Map Page Weather Control

weather data on the Navigation Map Page:
NEXRAD – pressing the NEXRAD softkey displays
