6.2.2.1 Vertical Speed Indicator Range
The Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) defines the range for the Vertical Speed Tape on the PFD. The Vertical
Speed Tape display varies with the configuration setting, as illustrated in Figure 6-24. The VSI Range
configuration options include:
• ± 2000 fpm
• ± 3000 fpm
• ± 4000 fpm
The VSI Range configuration is accessed from the PFD sub-menu, Figure 6-23, and the current VSI Range
is shown on the VSI button. Pressing the VSI button displays the options for the VSI Range; ± 2000 fpm, ±
3000 fpm and ± 4000 fpm, as illustrated in Figure 6-24.

± 2000 fpm
± 3000 fpm
± 4000 fpm
NOTE
THE DEFAULT SELECTION IS ± 2000 FPM. IT IS RECOMMENDED THE VSI RANGE BE SET TO
A VALUE COMPARABLE TO THE AIRPLANE’S EXISTING VSI’S RANGE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE
EXISTING VSI HAS A RANGE OF 3000 FPM, THEN THE VSI SHOULD BE SET TO ± 3000 FPM.
