If an altitude conflict exists between the FMS target altitude and the FCP selected
altitude (aircraft is between the two), ??? is displayed on the left side of the title
line to indicate the conflict.
Aircraft deviation from the FMS descent path is displayed in 1L for flight crew
reference. The vertical deviation (in feet) is displayed first followed by the
horizontal deviation (in NM). The values indicate the position of the aircraft with
respect to the FMS path (+-1000 feet full scale).
The transition altitude of the destination (from the nav database) is displayed at
lower left and is not editable. If a value is not available from the nav database, then
18000 ft. is displayed. The optimum and maximum altitudes are displayed at
bottom center and are not editable. Access the DESCENT FORECAST and
THRUST LIMITS pages with LSK 5R and 6R.
