Power Up

During power-up of the 500W Series unit, the
terrain/obstacle database versions are displayed along
with a disclaimer to the pilot. At the same time,
TAWS self-test begins. TAWS gives the following aural
messages upon test completion:
• "TAWS System Test, OK", if the system passes the test
• "TAWS System Failure", if the system fails the test
A test failure is also annunciated for TAWS, as
shown in the TAWS Alert Summary table.
