Data Pairs
Many CDU pages display data in pairs separated by a slash “/.” Examples of these
pairs include wind direction/speed and waypoint airspeed/altitude constraints.
When entering both values in a pair, the slash is inserted between the values. When
it is possible to enter only one value of the pair, the slash may not be required.
When entering only the outboard value of a pair, the trailing or leading slash may
be entered, but is not required before transferring to the data line. When entering
the inboard value of a pair, the trailing or leading slash must be entered before
transferring to the data line. Omission of the required slash normally results in an
INVALID ENTRY message.
