VerticAl Speed indicAtor (VSi)

The Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) displays the aircraft vertical speed on a fixed scale with labels at 1000 and
2000 fpm and minor tick marks every 500 fpm (Figure 2-13). Digits appear in the pointer when the climb or
descent rate is greater than 100 fpm. If the rate of ascent/descent exceeds 2000 fpm, the pointer appears at the
corresponding edge of the tape and the rate appears inside the pointer.
A magenta chevron is displayed as the Required Vertical Speed Indication (RVSI) for reaching a VNV Target
Altitude once the "TOD [Top of Descent] within 1 minute" alert has been generated. See the Flight Management
Section for details on VNV features, and refer to Section 2.3, Supplemental Flight Data, for more information
about VNV indications on the PFD.
