GI275 and flap indicators

I was in the sim today and it got me thinking about flap indications

On our airspeed tape at work it will show basically the max and min speeds for each flap range


Now this isn’t a need but a want

Is there a way for a Gi275 to redisplay speeds based on current flap setting, say min and max speed for each flap setting?
Or do something similar?


Figured if I’m going to be adding the 275s be cool to have them “be all they can be”

Thanks

You mean top and bottom of the white arc?

Or do you have approach flaps available in your place at a higher speed?

Wondering if it can give me a max and min speed per flap setting if I put in a micro switch or something

Basically so when I have flaps selected it would reset my barber pole for max flap extended and mark my min flap speed too

Not sure if you can move the barber pole to the top of the white arc when you extend flaps but......it's also literally the white arc. Read the manual, there's some customization availabe but also everything has to be in accordance with the aircraft TCDS.
