While in the LS/VS mode and using the Cheltons for control of the TT AP VSGV and aircraft, I get more descent rate than I requested. I am using the target altitudes as descend to /climb to altitudes. I set descent/climb angle on the Cheltons. The initial descent is an uncomfortable descent profile even though I told the Cheltons a descent of less than 1 degree. The only thing that seems to shallow the descent is reduction in maximum air speed defined to the TT . I probably have a parameter improperly specified. Any suggestions?

I've seen similar issues with mine.
I've tried setting degree as well as FPM, and FPM seems to work a bit better than degree.
Like you, Dave, there is probably something I'm missing as well.
Maybe Tim the Master can get us both on track??!!

I will try the VS Chelton input soon; I did talk to TT and they said to check the AP standalone without any Arinc A or B input using the knob to specify descent rates
