Altitudes can also be displayed in meters (Figure 2-7). Note that the altitude tape does not change scale.
Displaying altitude in meters:
1)
Press the
PFD
Softkey to display the second-level softkeys.
2)
Press the
ALT
UNIT
Softkey.
3)
Press the
METERS
Softkey to turn on metric altitude readouts.
4)
Press the
BACK
Softkey to return to the top-level softkeys.
A magenta Altitude Trend Vector extends up or down the left of the altitude tape, the end resting at the
approximate altitude to be reached in six seconds at the current vertical speed. The trend vector is not shown
if altitude remains constant or if data needed for calculation is not available due to a system failure.
The
barometric pressure setting is displayed below the Altimeter in inches of mercury (in Hg) or hectopascals
(hPa) when metric units are selected. Adjusting the altimeter barometric pressure setting creates discontinuities
in VNV vertical navigation, moving the descent path. For large adjustments, it may take several minutes for the
aircraft to re-establish on the descent path. If the change is made while nearing a waypoint with a VNV Target
Altitude, the aircraft may not re-establish on the descent path in time to meet the vertical constraint.
Selecting the altimeter barometric pressure setting:
Turn the
BARO
Knob to select the desired setting.
Selecting standard barometric pressure:
Press the
BARO
Knob to select standard pressure; STD BARO is displayed in the Barometric Setting box.
Or
:
1)
Press the
PFD
Softkey to display the second-level softkeys.
2)
Press the
STD BARO
Softkey; STD BARO is displayed in the Barometric Setting box.
Figure 2-8 Standard Barometric Altimeter Setting
Changing altimeter barometric pressure setting units:
1)
Press the
PFD
Softkey to display the second-level softkeys.
2)
Press the
ALT UNIT
Softkey.
3)
Press the
IN
Softkey to display the barometric pressure setting in inches of mercury (in Hg).
Or
, press the
HPA
Softkey to display the barometric pressure setting in hectopascals (hPa).
4)
Press the
BACK
Softkey to return to the top-level softkeys.
