GPWS Approaching minimums

Featured Replies

In my approach to the runway, "Approaching Minimums" is not heard?Yet it is set on the CDU "Equipment".

Do you have the DH/MDA set via the RADIO/BARO knob? No minimums set, no callout.

No, i don't think.How ?

I have the same issue, regardless of what setting my baro or radio ALT is set to. I tried everything in many different flights, approaching different airports and runways with different elevations. The minimums were only seen on the screen but nothing could be heared. Not even the "Approaching Minimums", even though I had everything set up properly.

Set the RADIO/BARO Knob to your preference then twist the outter knob to set the height. Press the center of the knob to make the text appear or disappear.You should also go to page 10 of the Aircraft Equipment Page and make sure you have the Minimums Callout enabled or you aint gonna hear it.

I know how to do it, and I have done it already. It still doesn't work. It seems like the problem lies somewhere else OR I am doing something wrong, which I doubt after attempting to do it so many times seeing as it worked and displayed it correctly, just the sound was missing.

Same problem here ! Any idea ?

Sorry for the delay, I followed your advice. The problem remains the same.

If you select BARO, make sure you input decision ALTITUDE, if you select radio, make sure you input decision HEIGHT.
