11.9 Digital Displays (all J-Series)
Digital displays are optional in Jabiru Aircraft.
Jabiru recommends Dynon Avionics Products.
Electronic Flight Information Systems (EFIS) and Engine Monitoring Systems (EMS) are used.
EFIS systems are a muti-function flight data display. The instrument shows parameters including:
airspeed, true airspeed, outside air temperature, altitude, heading, artificial horizon, turn coordinator,
heading markers, vertical speed etc.
EMS systems are multi-function engine data displays. The instrument shows parameters including:
CHT, EGT, oil temperature, oil pressure, system voltage, RPM, fuel level, fuel flow, system voltage,
fight timers etc.
Setup of these instruments must be carried out in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
