  • Page 36 Altitudes associated with approach procedures are “auto-designated”. This means the system will automatically use the altitudes loaded with the approach for giving vertical flight path guidance outside the FAF. Note these altitudes are displayed as small light blue text. Altitudes associated with arrival procedures are “manually-designated”. This means the system will not use the altitudes loaded with the arrival for giving vertical flight path guidance until designated to do so by the pilot. Note that these altitudes are initially displayed as white text. These altitudes may be “designated” by placing the cursor over the desired altitude and pressing the ENT Key. After designation, the text changes to light blue. Altitudes that have been designated for use in vertical navigation may also be made “non-designated” by placing the cursor over the desired altitude and pressing the CLR Key. The altitude is now displayed only as a reference. It will not be used to give vertical flight path guidance. Other displayed altitudes may change due to re-calculations or rendered invalid as a result of manually changing an altitude to a non-designated altitude.
