Start Auto Descent Message
The display below shows you should begin your Auto Descent. This
message will be generated 20 seconds prior to auto descent. The
descent rate and airspeed are set in NAV mode. In the example below,
you should begin your descent to SLE at 1,500 ft/min and 250 knots.
This message is cleared after viewing; it does not become an old
message after viewing.
Arrival at Auto Descent Target Altitude Message
This message is generated when the aircraft is within 100 feet of the
Auto Descent Target Altitude when the feature is turned on. The target
altitude is adjusted in NAV mode. In the example below, the Auto
Descent Altitude is 2,000 feet. This message is immediately reset after
viewing; it does not become an old message after viewing.
Arrival at Waypoint Messages
The arrival message is generated when you are within 36 seconds of
arrival at the current TO waypoint. It is cleared after viewing. The
arrival condition will also go away without viewing the message after
crossing the angle bisector.
Not Holding At The TO Waypoint
This form of the Arrival Alert is provided when not holding at the
current TO waypoint. In addition to the arrival waypoint identifier, the
next leg's desired track is shown, when available; otherwise it is
dashed. If wind factors (from the Fuel/Air Data Sensor) and a Next
waypoint are available, the desired heading is also shown on line three,
otherwise line three is blank.
