A speed entry problem in the 777 tutorial

[cliffardus 3]

I follow the instructions until I get to page 46 of the Tutorial which reads as follows:

 

"Click LSK's 1R, 2R and 3R-this transfers the calculated takeoff V speeds from the FMC's integrated QRH table onto the Primary Flight display (PDF) speed tape"

 

At that stage clicking on 1R, 2R and 3R nothing happens and I can't figure out where I might have gone wrong.

 

Any suggestions please?

Hi all:

 

As Peter sugested, you have to fill some other information in the FMS, the runway and departure route, the Perf page (weigths), so the FMC can calculate the differents speeds.

The CDU will display the speeds in small fonts if everything required has been entered. If something's missing, no "small speeds" will show up. Confirming the speeds will change them into a bigger size.

Either post screenshots, or follow the tutorial more carefully. I'm guessing you've skipped a couple steps somewhere.

Thanks for these comments. I'll keep plugging away as I can't let this beat me.
