UP/DN - Pitch Wheel
The Pitch UP/DN Wheel on the controller is used to change the Flight
Director pitch mode reference value. Each click of the wheel results in
a step increase or decrease in the Flight Director pitch mode by the
amount shown in the table below. The Pitch Wheel controls the
reference for Pitch Hold (PIT), Vertical speed (VS), and Indicated
Airspeed (IAS) FD modes. The reference value is displayed next to the
active mode annunciation on the PFD. Go-Around and Glidescope
modes are not controlled by the nose Pitch Wheel, however, use of the
Pitch Wheel during Go-Around mode will cause reversion to Pitch Hold
mode. The Pitch Wheel controls altitude reference when in altitude
hold mode.
