Multi-Hazard Avoidance System MHAS6000
Situational awareness is increasingly important when flying in today’s crowded airspace and busy ATC environment. That’s why Avidyne developed the MHAS6000 Multi-Hazard Avoidance System. The MHAS6000 is a specially-priced safety suite comprised of an EX500 or EX5000 Multifunction Display and any of Avidyne’s new TAS600-Series Active Traffic Avoidance Systems.
The MHAS6000 uses the EX500/EX5000’s industry leading moving map to provide pilots with the complete navigation picture including flight plan waypoints, navaids, airports, color-coded Class airspace and special use airspace. Avidyne’s full overlay capability makes it easy to control the presentation of navigation, terrain, weather, and traffic information right on the moving map page.

CMax™ Electronic Charts option offers a worldwide library of geo-referenced approach charts and airport diagrams, helping you manage and access critical flight information and reducing the amount of paper required on board your aircraft.

Utilizing the TAS600 with Ryan Active Surveillance (RAS) technology, the MHAS6000 provides the most advanced collision-avoidance protection available. The active-surveillance TAS600 systems actively search for and interrogate other aircraft providing full-time collision avoidance protection even outside radar coverage areas. With three models to choose from, the TAS600 series allows you to select the traffic system that best suits your needs. The TAS600 provides affordable collision avoidance for single- engine piston aircraft, the TAS610 is recommended for mid-performance aircraft and rotorcraft. Our TAS620 is designed for high-performance aircraft and rotorcraft. All TAS600 Series traffic systems include patented dual-directional antennas and industry-exclusive Heads-Up Audible Position Alerting™, which tells you where to look. TRAFFIC! ONE O'CLOCK! HIGH TWO MILES!

Heads-Up Audible Position Alerting™
When a traffic conflict is imminent, pilots need the right information in real time. First-generation traffic systems only provide a “Traffic Traffic” audible alert, which then requires the pilot to look down at the display to locate the relative bearing and distance of the intruder aircraft before looking out the window.  Avidyne’s exclusive Heads-Up Audible Position Alerting™ verbally indicates the conflicting aircraft’s bearing, range and relative altitude for rapid visual acquisition of traffic. This automated voice alert uses the same alert terminology as Air Traffic Control. This type of alert provides the data a pilot needs to keep his attention focused outside the cockpit, scanning for oncoming traffic.

Terrain
The EX500/EX5000 makes it easy to see and avoid terrain hazards. With its color-contoured topographic terrain and water base map and North American database containing towers and other obstacles greater than 200'AGL, the EX500/EX5000 presents a clear presentation of terrain hazards. The nearest obstacle feature makes it easy to determine the height and proximity of nearby towers as you descend into any unfamiliar areas. In addition, the EX500/EX500 has the ability to interface with all the popular Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Systems (EGPWS) for optimum terrain awareness and alerting.

Weather
For staying out of harms way in inclement weather, the EX500/EX5000’s exclusive MultiLink capability provides real-time XM WX datalink weather updates, as well as the ability to stay in touch via two-way text messaging and flight tracking. XM weather data includes NEXRAD, graphical and textual METAR's, AIRMET's, SIGMET's, and Lightning from the National Lightning Detection Network. The EX500/EX5000 also interfaces with the WX500 Stormscope for on-board lightning detection. With the ability to interface to any of 19 different radar systems, the EX500/EX5000 offers the most radar interface choices, and typically means you can add all the safety benefits of the MHAS6000 system, without the added expense of replacing your existing radar RT.
Top and Bottom Antennas
TAS600 Antennas
Standard with all TAS600 systems, Avidyne’s patented directional top and bottom antennas provide optimum signal coverage around the host aircraft, enabling faster updates, providing enhanced performance over single-antenna systems, and maximizing safety.
