Hi Teroc

my exact question is: do you feed de CADC with the information of the pressure reference you select on your altimeter: 1013, or 1020, etc.?

But your comment makes me believe that the CADC feed’s the altimeter and changing the reference pressure on it, just moves a scale on the instrument. And that means: you do not feed the CADS with the pressure reference.

Thanks,

Tango
