(p) Vertical Profile - The vertical profile mode allows the crew to
view a portion of the flight plan in the vertical dimension.
This
mode is selected through the display controller (Figure
213). The previous discussion on waypoints apply. Navaids and
airports are not displayed in the vertical profile area.
The vertical profile display uses the symbols previously
discussed in the lateral map section of this document. This
display is limited to five symbols (maximum) to make the best
use of the limited display area. These symbols include
waypoints, top of climb (TOC), top of descent (TOD), and
transition points. The display vertical dimension is altitude
in feet. The vertical dimension is scaled to be t20,000 feet
about the aircraft altitude. The lateral dimension is distance
in miles and is scaled to be equivalent to the lateral MAP
range.
The altitude is identified
follows:

TOC/TOD Waypoints - The TOC and TOD (top of climb/descent)
waypoints are represented on the vertical profile display
using a diamond symbol (Figure 214).
~
Transition Point - A transition point is defined as a point
that has no ident or altitude labels but is on the vertical
path (Figure 214).
~
Altitude Preselector - The altitude preselector is shown on
the map as a horizontal green dashed line (Figure 214).
This value corresponds to the value displayed above the
altitude tape on the PFD.
