I'm navigating with a SL-30 and a 796 with my 4500. When navigating to a destination airport with the 796 and the fight plan activated, the HITS glide slope defalts to 3.0 degrees and 1,000 ft AGL for the top of descent (using CNO as an example, my home airport, RWY 26R> 3.0 deg defalts to AT 1650, CNO elevation is 650). This is well within the FAF which is 2100 msl. My question is how do I extend the HITS glideslope top of the descent to be 3,000 msl? Is it as easy as editing the FLT PLAN so that the wapoint (destination, 26R >3.0) AT is 3,000?
As a further note, when selecting an approach on the 796 and activating it (either FAF to final, or vectors to final) the HITS glideslope
disappears with the 4500 FLT PLAN activated (In the case of CNO, in the FLT PlAN destination AT becomes 650 which is field elevation and it won't let you edit it past 900). Any reason why?
Tom
