ED AT (End of Descent at)
Displays the last/lowest waypoint constraint
on the route. Data is transferred from the
LEGS page.
SPEED
Displays command speed or Mach.
Label can display ECON SPD, SEL SPD or
POLICY SPD.
The flight crew may enter SEL SPD (Mach or
speed). Valid entries are .X, .XX or .XXX for
Mach, and XXX for airspeed.
When the speed label indicates SEL SPD or
POLICY SPD, an ECON prompt will be
displayed on the page.
The speed display will automatically change
from Mach to speed upon transitioning
through FL270 when flying in ECON SPD
mode.
SPD TRANS (Speed Transition)
The descent speed transition is by default set
to 240kts below 10,000 feet.
Below SPD TRANS altitude, the display is
blank.
SPD RESTR (Speed Restriction)
The flight crew can manually set a speed
limit at an altitude higher than the ED
altitude.
When the aircraft transitions below the set
restriction altitude, the display will be dashed
out.
Waypoint Constraint (AT SOVIR)
The first waypoint speed/altitude constraint
on the active route is displayed here when
constraints have been entered on a RTE
LEGS page procedure or by crew entry.
When passing the waypoint constraint, then
next one, if there is one, is automatically
displayed.
The waypoint constraint can be deleted on
this page or on the RTE LEGS page.
The target speed commanded by the AFMC
is the lowest of the constraint speed or the
current performance speed.
PATH ERROR
Indicates how much the aircraft is deviating
from the AFMC calculated descent profile
and how much long or short of the target ED
point the aircraft will reach the target
altitude.
Displayed when the descent mode is active.
Blank if no descent deviation is predicted.
FORECAST
Selection opens the Descent Forecasts
page.
DES NOW (6R)
Selection and execution starts an immediate
descent towards the first constrained
waypoint.
DES DIR (6R)
Is displayed when descent is active and a
waypoint constraint exits between the
current position and the ED waypoint.
Selection deletes all waypoint constraints
between the current position and the ED
waypoint.
Descent Mode (5L)
Displays ECON when the active descent
mode is not economy.
Displays POLICY when the active descent
mode is economy.
