On the PERF APPR, the FMS shows TRANS FL but displays an altitude, like the FMSs where it shows TRANS ALT.

 

From the FCOM, THALES2 FMS:

Hi @becas, I did further investigation. TRANS FL is correct for Thales, TRANS ALT is Honeywell.
But it should show a FL value.
Added it to the bug tracking system.

FCOM:
Displays the Transition Level, computed by the FMS based on the
Transition Altitude (extracted from the database) and the QNH value
entered in the [1L] field. It is rounded to the upper multiple of 5. By
default, it is displayed in small blue font.
The crew can modify it (it is then displayed in large blue font).

@becas you are correct. Just discovered:

A330 has TRANS ALT

A32S has TRANS FL

Both Thales FMS2 Release1A. Just one more small difference of the longrangeFMS vs shortrangeFMS.
