Narrative:
XA45 local (orf). Assigned 3000 ft by departure. Aircraft on autoflt mode (autoplt) did not capture. At 3400 ft, we started pushover then got TCASII alert, then TCASII climb resolution. We then continued climb and notified departure.

Title: MDT ACR JET OVERSHOOTS 3000 FT ALT WHEN ALT CAPTURE FEATURE ON AUTOPLT FAILS TO LEVEL ACFT AT 3000 FT. TCASII RA CREATES A FURTHER ALTDEV IN A CLB MANEUVER. FLC ADVISES ATC OF DEV.
Narrative: XA45 LCL (ORF). ASSIGNED 3000 FT BY DEP. ACFT ON AUTOFLT MODE (AUTOPLT) DID NOT CAPTURE. AT 3400 FT, WE STARTED PUSHOVER THEN GOT TCASII ALERT, THEN TCASII CLB RESOLUTION. WE THEN CONTINUED CLB AND NOTIFIED DEP.
