ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
SECTION 3 ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) for the Columbia 350/400 displays critical engine, electrical, fuel,
and other system parameters on the left side of the MFD during normal operations. EIS information can be
fully expanded to an entire page (Engine Page) using the SYSTEM Softkey. In reversionary display mode, the
remaining display is re-configured to present PFD symbology together with the EIS Display (refer to the System
Overview for information about reversionary display mode).

Instrument types include dial gauges, horizontal and vertical bar indicators, digital readouts, slide bars, and
bar graphs. Green bands indicate normal ranges of operation; yellow and red bands indicate caution and
warning, respectively. White bands indicate areas outside of normal operation not yet in the caution or warning
ranges.
When unsafe operating conditions occur, the corresponding readouts flash to indicate cautions and warnings.
If sensory data to an instrument becomes invalid or unavailable, a red “X” is displayed across the instrument.
