ENGINE INDICATING SYSTEM (EIS)
The G1000 Engine Indicating System (EIS) provides graphical
indicators and numeric values for engine, fuel, and electrical system
parameters to the pilot. The EIS is shown in a vertical strip on the left
side of the PFD during engine starts and on the MFD during normal
operation. If either the MFD or PFD fails during flight, the EIS is shown
on the remaining display.
The EIS consists of two pages that are selected using the ENGINE
softkey. The ENGINE page provides indicators for Engine Torque,
Engine ITT, Gas Generator RPM%, Propeller RPM, Oil Pressure, Oil
Temperature, Fuel Quantity, Fuel Flow, Battery Amps and Bus Voltage.
When the ENGINE softkey is pressed, the SYSTEM softkey will appear
adjacent to the ENGINE softkey. The SYSTEM page provides
numerical values for parameters on the ENGINE page that are shown
as indicators only. Torque, ITT, N
g
% and N
p
RPM are displayed
identically on the SYSTEM page. The SYSTEM page also provides
numerical indication for fuel quantity, fuel totalizer (pounds remaining
and pounds used), generator amps, standby alternator amps, battery
amps and bus voltage.
The engine and airframe unit provides data to the EIS, which displays
the data for the ENGINE page described below. Engine operation is
monitored by: torque, ITT, N
g
%, propeller RPM, oil pressure, oil
temperature, and fuel flow.
