When the flight crew sets the TCAS to STBY, the ALT RPTG to OFF, or the XPDR to STBY
from the ATC/TCAS panel, the green memo TCAS STBY is displayed on EWD.
3.1.7.2. TCAS AURAL ALERTS
TA and RA TCAS displays come with aural alerts. On A300/A310/A320/A330/A340 aircraft, the Flight Warning System (FWS) broadcasts these aural alerts through the loudspeakers, and the flight crew cannot modify their volume. On A380 aircraft, the FWS broadcasts the aural alerts through the loudspeakers and the headsets.

1.
Wind shear alert or stall alert
2.
TAWS alerts
3.
TCAS alerts.
In case of wind shear, stall, or GPWS warnings:
-FWS inhibits TCAS aural alerts
-
TCAS converts all RAs into TAs on ND
-
TCAS automatically sets the TA ONLY mode.
