Altitude Indicator
The Altitude function is a tape-style indicator (See
) that appears on the right of the
). The Altitude Indicator tells the pilot the barometric altitude of the airplane.
The pilot can set an altitude bug using a knob. The bug appears on top of (numerically) and
inside (graphically) the indicator. The pilot can also set barometric pressure (BARO) using a
knob. Barometric pressure is displayed on the bottom of the indicator. Density Altitude (DA) is
also displayed on the bottom of the indicator. Data generated from the ADAHRS module is used
to present the Altitude Indicator on a SkyView HDX display.
