The Cessna Citation Mustang’s Engine Indication and Crew Alerting System (EICAS) offers improved flight
operations and reduces crew workload by automatically monitoring critical system parameters and providing
system alerts during all phases of flight. In combination with the EICAS, aural alerts, additional avionics messages,
and master indicators are used to inform the crew of aberrant flight conditions. The EICAS is also designed to
provide an improved level of maintenance data for the ground crew.
The EICAS can be divided into two major functions:
• The Engine Indication System (EIS) displays electrical, fuel, engine, pressurization, and flight control
information.
• The Crew Alerting System (CAS) displays advisories, cautions, and warnings to communicate conditions,
statuses, and system failures. CAS messages are grouped by level of importance and color-coded based on
urgency in the CAS pane in the lower left of the EICAS Display.
EICAS information is normally displayed on the left side of the Multi Function Display (MFD).
