Customizing the Airspeed Tape For Your Aircraft
The airspeed indicator settings are programmed in Set Menu > General Setup > Primary Flight
Display. They should be programmed before the first flight according to the design limitations
of the aircraft and can be fine tuned during flight testing to match the individual aircraft’s flight
characteristics.
5.3 Altimeter Tape
The Altimeter Tape displays altitude above
mean sea level (MSL) in hundreds of feet or
meters. Even thousands are depicted by a
solid marker, either a circle, triangle or
rectangle. Five-hundred foot increments are
depicted by a hollow marker. The baro setting
is displayed in the lower right corner.
The terrain clearance color band on the edge
of the altimeter tape shows the Off-Route
Obstacle Clearance Altitude (OROCA) which
provides 1000-foot obstruction clearance in
non-mountainous terrain areas and 2,000-
foot obstruction clearance in designated
mountainous areas within the United States.
An altitude below the OROCA is shown yellow,
above the OROCA is shown green.
To Change the Altimeter Setting:
1. From the PFD screen, turn the knob to enter the new
altimeter setting.
2.
Press the knob to accept the new baro setting or
press CANCEL to abandon the changes.
