SECTION 12: ANNUNCIATIONS &
ALERTS
NOTE: The Airplane Flight Manual Supplement
supersedes information found in this
document.
The G1000 Alerting System conveys alerts to the pilot
using a combination of the following items:
• Alerts Window: The Alerts Window displays
alert text messages. Up to 64 prioritized alerts
can be displayed in the Alerts Window. Pressing
the ALERTS Softkey displays the Alerts Window.
Pressing the ALERTS Softkey again removes the
Alerts Window from the display. When the Alerts
Window is displayed, the pilot may use the Large
FMS Knob to scroll through the alert list. Higher
priority alerts are displayed at the top of the window.
Lower priority alerts are displayed at the bottom of
the window. Active alerts are displayed in white text.
Alerts that have become inactive will change to gray
text. The ALERTS Softkey will flash if the state of a
displayed alert changes or a new alert is displayed.
The inactive alerts can be removed from the Alerts
Window by pressing the flashing ALERTS Softkey.
• ALERTS Softkey Annunciation: When the
Alerting System issues an alert, the ALERTS Softkey
is used as a flashing annunciation to accompany
an alert. During the alert, the ALERTS Softkey
assumes a new label consistent with alert level
(WARNING, CAUTION, or ADVISORY). Pressing
the softkey annunciation acknowledges that the
pilot is aware of the alert. The softkey then returns
to the previous ALERTS label. The pilot can then
press the ALERTS Softkey again to view alert text
messages.
• System Annunciations: Typically, a large red ‘X’
appears in a window when a related LRU fails or
detects invalid data.
• Audio Alerting System: The G1000 system issues
audio alert tones when specific system conditions
are met. See the Alert Levels Definitions section for
more information.
