The ATD-300 Traffic-Watch+ is a passive receiver capable of detecting transponder replies from nearby aircraft and displaying their range, direction (requires optional ANT-300) and altitude on an 8-character dot matrix yellow LED display. It also provides distinctive voice warnings in relation to traffic proximity. The ATD-300 has a detection range of 5 nautical miles. The receiver is housed in a small aluminum box for easy location in the cockpit.
The ATD-300 provides distinctive voice warnings for traffic at different ranges. When set in the FAR mode traffic at 3nm and +1,000ft “Traffic” is annunciated " When set in the NEAR mode only traffic within 1nm and +500ft “Traffic Nearby” is annunciated. When there is no traffic activity the ATD-300 will automatically indicate the host transponder MSL pressure altitude or squawk code. Audio output to headphones (300 ohms) and ext. data (RS-232) for remote displays is provided on the back of the unit.
The ATD-300 features a built-in voltage-warning indicator that lets you know if the aircraft bus voltage is out of range. This function works on the background all the time and is activated after engine start. If an out of range condition exist the ATD-300 annunciates it by voice and by text.
From the moment you learn to fly you are advised to be aware of traffic in your vicinity. By visually scanning the area you can assess most traffic threats, but what about when you are busy looking at your charts, approach plates, flight manual, instruments, programming your GPS or just sightseeing.
Traffic-Watch+ provides that continuous traffic awareness. The ATD-300 detects all transponder type replies from nearby traffic and display their range, direction (with optional ANT-300 antenna, see Related Products and Accessories) and altitude on a bright digital LED display. Simultaneously, a clear female voice prompts you with VOICE ALERTS in relation to traffic proximity. Traffic-Watch+ also checks your transponder operation and bus voltage. All of these in a compact unit, no bigger than a speed radar detector.
With the Plug & Fly kit (no direction) you just plug the ATD-300 into the cigarette lighter (for power) and the aircraft headphone jack (for voice) and you are ready to fly. No panel space or installation is required. Or if you prefer the ATD-300 can be easily panel mounted in your aircraft. Thanks to its compact size the ATD-300 can be located anywhere in the panel. Mounting brackets and connectors are provided with the unit.
Tested in the flight training environment the ATD-300 is the perfect cost effective solution for training and sport aircraft.
