To enter altitudes as a flight level, turn the smallFMS Knob counter-clockwise past zero or clockwise past 9 on the first character, and the system automaticallychanges to show units of Flight Level. Turn the large FMS Knob clockwise to highlight the first zero and enterthe three digit flight level.4) Press the ENT Key to accept the altitude constraint; if the selected waypoint is an airport, an additional choiceis displayed. Turn the small FMS Knob to choose ‘MSL’ or ‘AGL’, and press the ENT Key to accept the altitude.Altitude constraints can be modified or deleted after having been added to the flight plan. In the eventan altitude constraint is deleted and the navigation database contains an altitude restriction for the lateralwaypoint, the G950 displays the altitude restriction from the database provided no predicted altitude can beprovided. The G950 also provides a way to reinstate a published altitude constraint that has been edited.Deleting an altitude constraint provided by the navigation database:1) Press the FPL Key to display the Active Flight Plan Page on the MFD.2) Press the FMS Knob, and turn to highlight the desired waypoint altitude constraint.3) Press the CLR Key. A ‘Remove VNV altitude constraint?’ confirmation window is displayed.4) Select ‘OK’ and press the ENT Key.Deleting an altitude constraint that has been manually entered:1) Press the FPL Key to display the Active Flight Plan Page on the MFD.2) Press the FMS Knob, and turn to highlight the desired waypoint altitude constraint.3) Press the CLR Key. A ‘Remove or Revert to published VNV altitude of nnnnnFT?’ confirmation window isdisplayed.4) Select ‘REMOVE’ and press the ENT Key. The manually entered altitude is deleted (it is replaced by a systemcalculated altitude, if available).
