When iw as flying from Amsterdam to hamburg this light came on what did I do for this light to come on it says off schedule descent but I was climbing to cruise altitude and the air cond fault message appeared
OFF SCHED DESCENT
-
Descent without reaching the programmed pressurisation maximum altitude. Just dial in a lower level and it will reset.

This light means that you have not set up the pressurization correctly. Before takeoff you should set the cruise altitude in the pressurization panel. If you start a descent and have never reached that set altitude the light off schedule descent illuminates to indicate to the pilots that the pressurization system now assumes that you are returning to the flight origin elevation. To clear this caution just change the pressurization cruise altitude to your current altitude.
If you keep the assistance cockpit enabled this is managed for you.

I was flying from EHAM to LSZH. I was going up to cruise altitude (FL230) when I got an OFF SCHED DESCENT warning. FMC, MCP were all set to FL230, so why is this happening?
Also, why does T/D appear before T/C during the ascendant?
-
Most likely your altitude is too high for such routes

No, the distance between T/C and T/D was sufficient

It might be useful to mention whether this is an IOS or Android problem, that's very important to know! Everything is fine on Android.

There is virtually no difference between the two versions. Android, iOS, Mac OS and Steam version have pretty much identical aircraft and system behavior. We would waste a lot of time if we didn't keep them in sync.

I don't understand, there have been IOS errors in the past that didn't occur on Android. Unfortunately I can't remember what they were 🤷

I turned on the auto cockpit, but when it went through 14000ft again, the OFF SCHED DESCENT came up. I was going from EHAM to EBBR and there was enough distance between T/C and T/D💀💀
-
I'm going from EHAM to LFBO, and the cruise altitude was FL350 and the OFF SCHED DESCENTcame up again lol🤣🤣
I don't think I did anything wrong

Please provide a screenshot of this panel. Does the error also occur on other flight routes?

Yes. All flights are like that.

That panel is the same except for FLT ALT in the screenshot you sent.

I have done so many flights and everything is fine with me. You are doing something wrong but I don't know what. 🤷

Yes, but you have to see the entire panel to get an idea.

It takes too long to follow the situation again. And the OFF SCHED DESCENT is illuminated when it is descending, not when it is climbing. So I didn't do anything wrong
-
Can you fly up to (or slightly above) an altitude that you have already dialled in on the pressurisation panel? If you then do one single descent you should not get that alarm.
