What is this value?

Hi all

Try as I may, I can’t make sense out of this number. Every labeled diagram in ED and Chucks guide label everything except this number. I’m sure I’m being exceptionally dumb and it’s staring me in the face, but I don’t see it.

This is in A/G mode with GBU 38 selected in pre mode. The number seems to stay relatively constant as you fly along, but if you put the sim into active pause, the number starts counting up in what seems to be 1sec increments. I’m lost for an answer.

time (in zulu) when your reach the steerpoint.
your current time is 17:34:01. you have 5min 17s to get to the steerpoint. now if you add those 5:17 to the 17:34:01 you get 17:39:18

Like I said……. Staring me in the face 

Thanks Moonshine, now I can sleep again
