    If I want to put in an altitude restriction say below 7000 feet, how would I do that in the UNS? "7000B" and "-7000" don't seem to work. I looked in the manual but couldn't find any direction about this specific thing.

    Looking at our reference material for the UNS-1 I don't believe this would be possible on the PATH VNAV page. On the real unit, it looks like the VNAV page will only display "@" altitudes (i.e. a fixed altitude for each waypoint). I suspect this is so the UNS-1 can calculate a decent path more easily and doesn't have to factor in if an aircraft is going to be "at or above" or "at and below" a certain altitude at each waypoint.

    In our simulation of the UNS-1, the PATH VNAV is automatically populated with the waypoints and altitude restrictions on a STAR, and we did add up/down arrows to the altitudes as a quality-of-life addition so that users can more easily see any altitude restrictions without references charts.
