The HGS accepts glideslope angles from –0.00° to –9.99°. The minus sign ("–")
and trailing zeroes do not have to be entered as part of the value. If a value does
not agree with these limits, "*INVALID G/S*" shows on the MCDU scratch pad
line. Push the MCDU "CLR" key to remove "*INVALID G/S*" message from the
MCDU scratch pad and re-enter the correct value.
For an AIII approach, the HGS accepts glideslope angles from –2.50° to –3.00°.
The minus sign ("–") and trailing zeroes do not have to be entered as part of the
