We had been wondering why the lower selected  altitude gave an immediate and uncomfortable descent. check the 6B operating  procedures page 6-70.

  

 "If a lower target altitude is selected,  the skyway will descend 

immediately and a green arc showing altitude capture  point will 

appear on the courseline on the MFD. The intent is to climb or  

descend “right now” as if being given an assigned altitude from 

ATC.  This is analagous to the heading bug submode. The 

system uses descent logic.  This will be either a manually-

selected vertical speed (VSI bug) or airspeed  (airspeed bug). If 

neither is selected, a default descent of 1000 fpm will  be used." 

  

  

 Climb and descent angles appear to work only for  VNAV segments.
