ALTITUDE ALERT PAGE: ALT Button

Fig 17.3
The altitude alert page is used in conjunction with the SEL field of the NAV 4 page to alert the pilot
when the aircraft has reached a specified number of feet above a pre-selected altitude. Clicking on
the ALT BUTTON will display the altitude alert page on the left screen and the NAV 4 page on the
right screen as shown in Fig17.1. The number of feet above the altitude is entered on the altitude
alert page and the selected alert altitude is entered on the NAV 4 page. Only the SEL altitude field is
used on the NAV 4 page, the rest are used in vertical navigation. Fig17.1 shows the default screen
with both cursors on and rectangles highlighting data entry fields that are ready to be changed. The
altitude alerting feature is also turned on and off on this page. The current barometric pressure is
displayed when this page is opened (default), and if it is not changed it will be used in altitude
calculations. There are 4 lines of information on the altitude alert page.
