Figure 2-11 Baro Transition Alert (AUX - System Setup Page) VERTICAL SPEED INDICATOR (VSI) The Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI) displays the aircraft vertical speed on a fixed scale with labels at 1000, 2000, and 3000 fpm (Figure 2-12). Digits appear in the pointer when the climb or descent rate is greater than 100 fpm. If the rate of ascent/descent exceeds 3000 fpm, the pointer appears at the corresponding edge of the tape and the rate appears inside the pointer. A magenta chevron is displayed as the Required Vertical Speed Indication (RVSI) for reaching a VNV Target Altitude once the "TOD [Top of Descent] within 1 minute" alert has been generated. See the Flight Management Section for details on VNV features, and refer to Section 2.2, Supplemental Flight Data, for more information about VNV indications on the PFD. 54 Garmin G1000H™ Pilot's Guide for the Bell 407GX 190-01255-00 Rev A
