I'll take a look at it , could be broken again ... but you need to set the
altitude in the Alerter and arm it, then climb to that altitude (with a VS
mode, or manually) ... it wont actually ALT hold until your within +- 1000
ft of the target. Pressing the ALT button simply holds the altitude your
were at when the button was pressed . That said , it still sounds like
something's not quite right with it.
Cheers
