Alt Alert

Did a search for this and no results.

I'm at FL320 and altimeters dialed to 29.92 but my ALT ALERT light is on. FMC is set for FL320 as well. So what am I doing wrong?

I´ve the same problem at every flight since purchase 23.12.2018
With set +200 ft in the MCP Alt Window after capture target alt, goes off the message.

For example:
PERF INIT Page CRZ Level FL360
MCP ALT 36000
Altimeter and Stby Altimeter 36000 at 1013/29.92

The message comes along with the warning 1000 ft below target ALT at climb (white light in the Altimeter and amber message ALT ALERT).
After reach CRZ Level FL360 the message rest, but with set 36200 at the MCP ALT goes off the message.

Problem clarified, the two Altimeter are not synchronized so I just focused on one side and the Stby Altimeter.

A small tipp here, there is a keyboard command in P3Dv4 to set all altimeters to standard.
I just set my main altimeter manually and then set the rest using that key command, that saves me the hassle of rotating the altimeters for a looooong time at high/low pressure.  Grin

I'm currently flying at FL370, with 37,000 set in the Altitude Selector, and FL370 set in the CRZ ALT (ACT ECON CRZ (VNAV page 2/3) and the PERF page), and the Altitude Alert is OFF like it should be. Undecided

Note. This is in CS 757-200 Captain Sim House 2018 model
