### ADI LATERAL DEVIATION <a href="#toc118376568" id="toc118376568"></a>

* Magenta diamond for FMS deviation. Green trapezoid pointer used for LOC.
* When both are displayed during PREV mode the FMS pointer overwrites the LOC pointer when both are at the same point. In PREV mode the trapezoid is displayed in cyan.
* When a valid deviation is not available a X is depicted.

### VERTICAL DEVIATION SCALE AND POINTER <a href="#toc118376569" id="toc118376569"></a>

* Pointer is controlled by the selected primary navigation source (PNS).
* Vertical deviation scale is displayed when:
  * Localizer (LOC) is selected as the PNS.
  * FMS is selected as the PNS, and the FMS commands the VNAV vertical scale in view.
* ILS LOC deviation pointer is a green trapezoid. VNAV FMS is a magenta hollow diamond.
* When glideslope data is invalid or when the vertical deviation scale is commanded into view by the FMS and a valid deviation is not available a X is depicted.
* Preview vertical deviation is displayed when LOC is the PREV source.
* LOC and FMS deviation are displayed the same way as the lateral deviation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flightsim-studio.com/e-jet-series/systems-guide/main-panel/primary-flight-display-pfd/lateral-vertical-deviation-indication.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
