ALTITUDE ALERTING

The Altitude Alerting function provides the pilot with visual and aural alerts when approaching the Selected

Altitude. Whenever the Selected Altitude is changed, the Altitude Alerter is reset. The Altitude Alerter is
independent of the GFC 700 AFCS, but alerting tones are generated only when the GFC 700 is installed. The
following occur when approaching the Selected Altitude:

• Upon passing through 1000 feet of the Selected Altitude, the Selected Altitude (shown above the Altimeter)

changes to black text on a light blue background, flashes for 5 seconds, and an aural tone is generated.

• When the aircraft passes within 200 ft of the Selected Altitude, the Selected Altitude changes to light blue text

on a black background and flashes for 5 seconds.

• After reaching the Selected Altitude, if the pilot flies outside the deviation band (±200 feet of the Selected

Altitude), the Selected Altitude changes to yellow text on a black background, flashes for 5 seconds, and an
aural tone is generated.
