If you input negative DH in EADI/EHSI and RA unchanged, which readout is affected?

Explanation:
The readout affected is the DH field. On EADI/EHSI displays, DH is a numeric readout that cannot show negative values; when a negative input is detected it’s treated as invalid data, so the display clears that field and shows it as blank. Since RA is a separate readout and you didn’t change it, it remains as it was. So the only readout that changes is DH, which becomes blank.
