(8) Range Selection and Range Rings

The MILACAS-FR Processor can be configured to control the traffic advisory display 
range selection either externally or internally. Data input to the display through the 
ARINC 429 bus supplies external control. A front panel selector switch (PPI 
weather/traffic display) or optional front panel pushbutton switches (TA/VSI or 
dedicated traffic display) supply internal control.  Range rings that show on the display 
are a function of range selected, regardless of whether range selection is made 
remotely or locally.  Table 18 summarizes range ring distances for each possible range 
selected on the various types of traffic displays available.

NOTE: Range selections beyond 40 nautical miles are possible only on PPI 

weather/traffic displays.  For these displays, the range ring information in 
Table 18 is applicable only when the display is in the TCAS mode, displaying 
only TCAS data.
