Echo Top (Cloud Top and Echo Top Mutually Exclusive)
The XM Information Page in the AUX Page Group will
display the weather products available for the current sub
-
scription. A green box by the weather product means that
it is available.
NOTE: The DONE softkey on the AUX - XM INFOR-
MATION page is used to save the GDL 69(A) acti-
vation data when the XM services are initially set
up. It is not used during normal operation of the
GDL 69(A), and it should have no adverse effects
if inadvertently selected during flight. Refer to
the GDL 69/69A XM Satellite Radio Activation
Instructions (190-00355-04, Rev E or later) for
further information.
Weather Product Age
The age for each of the enabled products is displayed
on the right side of the display. Times are based on Zulu
time when the data was assembled on the ground, not the
time the data was received by the FIS sensor. When the age
of a weather product has exceeded half of the expiration
time, the product time will change from light blue to amber
in color.
