ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) is designed
to provide gauges, bar graphs and numeric readouts of
engine parameters to the flight crew. The EIS also displays
the rudder trim, elevator trim and flap position indicators.
The EIS is displayed on the left side of the MFD during
normal operations. In reversionary mode, the CDUs are
re-configured to present the PFD symbology together with
the EIS (the EIS is displayed on the left side).
The EIS contains three distinct pages which are ac
-
cessed by the ENGINE softkey:
• Engine (default)
• Lean
• System
7.1 ENGINE
This is the default page, which displays all critical en-
gine, fuel and electrical indicators. Atop this page are
round dial gauges with a white pointer and digital readouts
for manifold pressure and revolutions per minute (RPM).
Below those gauges are color-coded horizontal bar indica
-
tors with triangle pointers and numeric readouts indicat
-
ing fuel quantity (no numeric readout), fuel flow (normally
aspirated), fuel pressure (turbocharged), oil pressure, oil
temperature, exhaust gas temperature (EGT) of the hot
-
test cylinder – for normally aspirated aircraft, turbine inlet
temperature (TIT) – for turbocharged aircraft, and cylinder
head temperature (CHT) of the hottest cylinder. The point
-
er on the horizontal bar indicators appears in white, which
represents acceptable areas of operation. The pointer color
changes to yellow or red upon exceeding areas of normal
operation. The green band is indicative of normal areas of
operation. Located beneath the horizontal bar indicators
are the electrical indicators. A numeric readout is provided
for the bus voltage and battery amperage.
Beneath the EIS strip is the rudder trim position indica-
tor. Located to the lower right of the EIS strip are the flap
and elevator trim position indicators.
Manifold Pressure Gauge
The Manifold Pressure gauge displays the engine power
in inches of mercury (in Hg).
• White – Normal operating range
• Red – Maximum manifold pressure (turbocharged)
Tachometer
The Tachometer displays propeller speed in revolu-
tions per minute (RPM).
• White – Below normal flight operating range
• Green – Normal flight operating range
• Red – Propeller overspeed
Fuel Qty Indicator
The Fuel Quantity indicator displays the quantity of
fuel in the tanks in gallons. The indicator ranges from 0
(Empty) to F (Full) with tick marks at 5 gallon intervals.
Two triangle pointers labeled L (Left) and R (Right) indicate
the number of gallons in each fuel tank.
• Green – Normal
• Yellow – Caution
• Red – Warning
NOTE: The Fuel Quantity indicator only displays
to 44.5 gallons when full.
NOTE: The pilot should refer to the Aircraft Flight
Manual (AFM) for limitations.
