TRAFFIC INFORMATION SERVICE (TIS)
Mode S provides a data link for Traf.c Information Service (TIS). TIS is a ground-based service that sends out location, direction, altitude and climb/descent information relative to all transponder-equipped aircraft within a radius of 55 miles from select sites.
For aircraft not equipped with TCAS or TAS, TIS provides a graphic display of traf.c information. TIS displays up to eight (8) traf.c targets within 7.5 nautical miles from 3,000 feet below to 3,500 feet above your aircraft. TIS data is updated approximately once every .ve (5) seconds.
NOTE: TIS is intended only to assist in visual acquisition of other aircraft in Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC).
NOTE: Aircraft without an operating transponder are invisible to TIS.

MODE SELECTION
Mode selection can be automatic (Ground and Altitude modes) or manual (Standby, ON and Altitude modes). The STBY, ON and ALT softkeys can be accessed by pressing the XPDR softkey.
Ground Mode (Automatic)
Ground mode is automatically selected when the aircraft is on the ground. A green GND indication appears in the mode .eld of the Transponder Status bar. In Ground mode, the transponder does not allow Mode A and Mode C replies, but it does permit acquisition squitter and replies to discretely addressed Mode S interrogations.
