2.

Enter the altitude indicated on the
aircraft’s altimeter (Ind:) to the
nearest hundred feet by using the
right inner knob to select the
desired value (figure 4-66).

3.

Use the right outer knob to move
the cursor to the Baro: field, and
then use the right inner knob to
enter the current altimeter setting
(figure 4-67). The pressure alti-
tude (Prs) is now displayed.

NOTE: The altimeter baro set units may be changed between inch-
es, millibars and hectopascals on the SET 8 page (see

section 3.15

).

4.3.4.

THE CALCULATOR 4 (CAL 4) PAGE

The CAL 4 page is used to determine density altitude

To calculate the density altitude:

1.

Turn on the cursor (

B

).

2.

The pressure altitude (Prs:) displayed will be either the last

entered pressure altitude on this page, or the last calculated
pressure altitude from the CAL 3 page. If you desire to change it,
enter the current pressure altitude to the nearest hundred feet by
using the right inner knob (figure 4-68).

3.

Use the right outer knob to move
the cursor to the first Temp: field,
and then use the right inner and
outer knobs to enter the outside
air temperature (degrees Celsius)
(figure 4-69). The first digit of the
temperature is either “0” if the
temperature is above zero or “-” if
the temperature is below zero.
For maximum accuracy, the static
air temperature should be
entered. This is the temperature
of air without the effect of heating
due to the aircraft’s movement through the air. For the airspeeds
of most piston aircraft, the difference between static air tempera-
ture and the observed air temperature (or “total air temperature”)
is negligible. The density altitude (Den) is now displayed.
