ALTITUDE CONSTRAINTS (or RESTRICTIONS) [1R, 2R, 3R, 4R, 5R]: Display of mandatory altitude -
constraints (coming from the Navigation Database or pilot-entered) in one of the following ways:
• The suffix A identifies a crossing restriction at or above the displayed value (example display A: 1600A
means cross D173J at or above 1600 feet).
• The suffix B identifies a crossing restriction at or below the displayed value (example display B: FL350B
means cross YZP at or below flight level 350).
• Two flight level values separated by "-" identify an altitude window crossing restriction (example display B:
300-320 means cross N51W125 between flight levels 300 and 320).
The altitude constraints extracted from the navigational database are displayed in small font.
Pilot-entered or modified altitude constraints are displayed in large font.
When a holding pattern is active, the altitude constraint of the holding leg is displayed.
Altitude constraints may be pilot-entered, modified and deleted, with the following exceptions:
• For altitude terminated legs, the altitude constraint cannot be modified.
• Navigation Database constraints on the final approach segment can only be raised, they cannot be lowered
or deleted.
Deletion of pilot-entered an altitude constraint will bring back the original altitude constraint (if any) extracted
from the navigation database.
The range for constraint is from 1 to 65000 Feet.
• Entry of three digits or less is considered to be a flight level, unless the altitude constraint waypoint is part of
the final approach segment, in which case all entries are interpreted in feet.
• Entry of four or five digits is considered in feet.
• Entry with a decimal point is rejected.
The field to scratchpad transfer of altitude constraints is rejected.
ROUTE TERMINATION: Dash prompts follow the last waypoint of the route.
ROUTE DISCONTINUITY: The route is not forming a continuous path of linked waypoints. A discontinuity will
be inserted into the flight plan if the end of the leg is indeterminate. The route discontinuity can be removed by
close up, e.g. by copying a waypoint following the discontinuity to a position preceding or on the discontinuity.
ERASE [6L]: Displayed only when a route modification is in progress. Used to erase modifications.
RESTORE [6L]: Displayed only if the Route was erased on the RTE 1/X page. Used to restore the active
route.
RTE x <AIRPORT NAME> [6L]: Access to the RTE x LEGS 1/X page. Displays the destination airport, if
assigned).
CANCEL [6L]: Cancel the changes made to the inactive route.
LEGS ETA [6R]: Access to the corresponding RTE LEGS ETA Y/X page.
MAP CTR STEP [6R]: Prompt appears when EFIS CP is in PLAN mode. Used to move the center of the EFIS
MAP display to the next waypoint in the flight plan.
