Question A320 Thrust Rating Limit

Hi there!

I wonder if one of the A320 (family) experts here can answer the following question(s) regarding the A320's thrust rating limits:

- Which thrust rating limit does the FADEC choose if its thrust lever is moved IN BETWEEN two detents (e.g. between CLB and FLX/MCT or between FLX/MCT and TOGA)?
- And which thrust rating limit will be displayed on E/WD if the two thrust levers are not in the same detent, e.g. one lever in MCT and the other in TOGA?

And this leads to another (related) question regarding A/THR:

- with the A/THR being active (A/THR blue on FMA) and both thrust levers in CLB, what happens to the A/THR status if ONE lever is moved BETWEEN the CLB and MCT detents? Or even further into MCT or between MCT and TOGA or into TOGA?

Would appreciate any clarifying answer/explanation for a dummy like me. Thanks!

Phil
