The best indication that the screen is in the 2-output format is that the middle vertical section
of the display will have Rate units that indicate “per minute”. In the sample display shown
above, the Rate units are “Feet/min”.
Main Screen: 3-output format
If all three outputs (Pt, Ps1 and Ps2) are connected to the aircraft then the Main Screen should
be in the 3-output format. The 3-output format appears as shown below.

As shown above in the sample 3-ouput format, information is divided into three vertical
sections. The left section shows information for the Pt output, the right section shows
information for the Ps1 output and the middle section shows information for the Ps2 output.
Notice that in 3-output format there is no information for the rate of change of the Ps1 output.
To see (or change) information on the rate of change of Ps1, the screen needs to be changed to
the 2-output format. This is done by pressing the PREV SCREEN key. The PREV SCREEN
key toggles the Main Screen between the 2-output format and the 3-output format.
As an example, if all three outputs are connected to the aircraft, the preferred format would be
the 3-output format. Now, to view or change the Ps1 rate, your would toggle to the 2-output
format using the PREV SCREEN key, view or change the Ps1 rate in the 2-output format, then
toggle back to the 3-output format using the PREV SCREEN key again.
The best indication that the screen is in the 3-output format is that the middle vertical section
of the display will NOT have Rate units indicating “per minute”; i.e. the units displayed in the
middle section will not indicate “/min”. Another indication is that in the middle vertical
section the Mode for Ps2 will be displayed to the right of the Actual value. In the sample
display above, the Ps2 Mode is indicated as “M”.
The following sub-sections explain the various uses of the Main Screen.
