=== Altitude indicator ===
=== Altitude indicator ===
The altitude tape is in feet, and shows from -990ft to 99990ft. The black pointer shows the current indicated altitude (determined from the air pressure), 20ft graduated. A trend vector indicates the readched altitude in the next 6 seconds in the limit of +/- 300ft.

The barometric setting is shwon just under the altitude tape. It is graduated in inHg by default, but this can be modified to hPa using the softkey menu <code>PFD > HPA</code>, and back to inHg via menu <code>PFD > IN</code>. The setting to standard barometric value (29.92inHg or 1023hPa) can be automatically set by the menu <code>PFD > STD BARO</code>. The barometer setting is essential and can be done by turning the BARO knob in front of the device (left side, under the COMM knob).

The selected altitude is indicated by a lightblue bug along the altitude tape. It is blocked at the upper or lower corner of the tape until the tape has in its range the selected altitude. While the selected altitude isn't in the +/- 300 ft range a black box indicate the selected altitude above the altitude tape. This box disappear when the indicated altitude is +/- 100 ft of selected altitude.

=== Vertical speed indicator===
The vertical speed indicator is on the right just near the altitude tape, and is graduated with major ticks every 1000 ft/min, and minor ticks every 500 ft/min.<br />
A black pointer containing the vertical speed with 10 ft/min precision moves along the non-moving tape. If the vertical speed exceeds +/- 4500 ft/min the pointer is locked to the upper/lower of the non-moving tape, and the vertical speed is detailed inside the pointer.
