1.6 Terrain Proximity Display IUnits without IITA \\'51
Terrain Proximity refers to the display of terrain information and comprises of a 2-D
picture of the surrounding terrain and obstacles relative to the position and altitude of the
rotorcraft. however it does not provide any alerts.
Navigation must not be predicated upon the use of the terrain display. The terrain display
is intended to serve as a situational awareness tool only. y itself, it may not provide
either the accuracy or the fidelity on which to base decisions and plan maneuvers to avoid
terrain or obstacles.
Terrain is not depicted on the terrain display within 10m of airports and heliports.
however terrain hazards may exist in these areas.
1,7 IITAWS Function IUnits with IITAWSI
HTA WS is an optional extension of Terrain Proximity. Pilots are authorized to deviate
from their current ATC clearance to the extent necessary to comply with HT AWS
warnings.
HT AWS shall NOT be used for navigation purposes.
HT AWS is an alerting system. The system does NOT guarantee successful recovery
from a conflict due to factors such as pilot response. aircraft performance. and database
limitations. No standardized recovery technique is defined as recovery maneuvers may
vary.
HTA WS functions perfonned by the armin 400W Series navigator are inhibited below
30 knots groundspeed.
Display of the terrain and obstacles is supplemental data only. Maneuvering solely by
reference to the terrain and obstacle display is not authorized.
NOTE:
The Terrain and Obstacle Display is intended to serve as a terrain and obstacle
awareness tool only. The Display and database may not provide the accuracy or
fidelity on which to base routine navigation decisions and plan routes to avoid
terrain or obstacles.

The Obstacle Database does not contain the location of power line poles or wires. Also
the Obstacle Database contains only KNOWN obstacles and docs not contain ALL
existing obstacles.
When alerting is inhibited, all Forward Looking Terrain Alerting aural and visual alerting
is suppressed. HTA WS should be only inhibited when in visual contact with terrain and
when the pilot can be assured of maintaining clearance from terrain and obstacles.
1.8 IITAWS Annun iations on the PFD IUnits with IITAWSj
HTA WS (Terrain Awareness and Warning System) visual annunciations from the NS
400W series unit are displayed on the 500H PFD. The required HTAWS annunciations
appear in the upper right of the PFD. These annun iations in lude TERRAIN (red),
TERRAIN (yellow), OBSTACLE (red), OBSTACLE (yellow), HTAWS /A (yellow),
HTA WS INHB (white). These annunciations are not relative to the terrain elevation
information displayed on the G500H MFD.

Section 2, EMER ENCY PROCEDURES
2.1 Emergency Procedures
No change.
2.2 Abnormal Procedures
a) If the armin 400W Series unit PS navigation information is not available, or is
invalid, utilize other remaining operational navigation equipment installed in the
aircraft as appropriate. If the 00W Series unit loses PS position and reverts to Dead
Reckoning mode (indicated by the annunciation of"OR
n
in the lower left of the
display), the moving map will continue to be displayed. Rotorcraft position will be
based upon the last valid PS position and estimated by Dead Reckoning methods.
Changes in airspeed or winds aloft can affect the estimated position substantially.
Dead Reckoning is only available in Enroute and Oceanic mode; Terminal and
Approach modes do not support DR.
b) If a "Loss of Integrity" (INTE ) message is displayed during:
Enrouterrerminal: continue to navigate using PS equipment and periodically
cross-check the PS guidance to other approved means of navigation.
c) When a Terrain or Obstacle Awareness CAUTION occurs, verifY the aircraft flight
path and correct it, ifrequired.
d) When a Terrain or Obstacle Awareness WARNIN occurs, immediately initiate a
maneuver that will provide maximum terrain or obstacle clearance, until all alerts
cease.

Section 3. NORMAL PROCEDURES
Refer to the 400W Series unit Pilot's uide defined in paragraph 1.1 of this document for
nonnal operating procedures. This includes all PS operations, VHF COM and NAY,
and Multi-Function Display information.
Although intuitive and user friendly the 400W Series unit requires a reasonable degree of
familiarity to enable unit operations without becoming too engrossed at the expense of
basic see-and-avoid. Pilot workload will be higher for pilots with limited familiarity in
using the unit. annin provides training tools with the Pilot's uide and PC based
simulator. Pilots should take full advantage of these training tools to enhance system
familiarization.
3.1 Approaches with Vertical uidance
The 400W Series unit supports three types of PS approaches with vertical guidance:
LPV approaches, LNAVNNAV (annunciated as LNNAV) approaches, and LNA V
approaches with advisory vertical guidance (annunciated as LNA V+V). For LNA V
approaches with advisory vertical guidance, the 400W Series will annunciate LNA V+V
indicating vertical guidance is available. LNA V minimums will be controlling in this
case.
3.2 "'FDE Prediction Program
The annin WAAS Fault Detection and Exclusion (WFDE) Prediction Program is
required for Remote/Oceanic operations. The Prediction Program should be used in
conjunction with the annin 400W/500W Simulator. After entering the intended route
of flight in the Simulator flight plan the pilot selects the FDE Prediction Program under
the Options menu of the Simulator program.
For detailed infonnation refer to the WFDE prediction program instructions
(190-00643-01). The availability of FOE is only required for Oceanic or Remote
operations.

3,3 T AWS Controls
The HTAWS function has control options on the HTAWS Page using the MENU key.
The options are activated by highlighting the desired option and pressing ENTER.
The "Inhibit HTAWS?" menu selection is used to inhibit HTAWS alerts. When alerting
is inhibited, all HTAWS aural and visual alerting is suppressed. HTAWS should be only
inhibited when in visual onta t with terrain and when the pilot an be assured of
maintaining learan e from terrain and obsta les. Use the "Enable HTA WS?" to un-
inhibit the unit.
The "Mute A tive Caution?" menu sele tion is used to mute an HTA WS aution that is
presently active. When the aution is resolved, the next aution will be heard. It does not
mute warnings, only autions. The "Unrnute A tive Caution?" is used to an el the
mute. An optional "MUTE" external swit h installation on the y li sti k is allowed to
mute the aution that is presently a tive in the same manner as using the Page Menu
sele tion.
The "Redu e Prote tion?" menu sele tion is used to a tivate the Redu e Prote tion (RP)
fun tionality. RP Mode redu es alerting thresholds and suppresses aural and visual
autions to allow operation in loser proximity to terrain and obsta les while ontinuing
to provide prote tion from terrain and obsta les. The "Enable Full Prote tion?" menu
sele tion is used to sele t full prote tion fun tionality again. An optional "RP MODE"
external swit h installation on the y li sti k is allowed to toggle Redu e Prote tion and
Enable Full Prote tion in the same manner as using the Page Menu sele tion.
The "Test HTA WS?" menu sele tion is used to a tivate a manual test whi h verifies
proper operation of the aural and visual annun iations of the system. The aural message
"HTAWS System Test, OK" is played if the system passes the test, if the system fails the
test "HTA WS System Failure" is played. HTAWS test is only available while on the
ground.
Yoi e allouts (yeas) provide voi e annun iation of the air raft height above terrain
when that threshold is crossed. VCOs may be enabled by the pilot in 100ft increments
from 500 feet above ground level to the surfa e. Enabling yeas is a omplished using
Voi e Callout sele tion in the AUX pages.
