EIS
1
Engine Manifold Pressure
Gauge (MAN IN HG)
Displays engine power in inches of Mercury (in Hg)
2
Tachometer
(RPM)
Shows propeller speed in revolutions per minute (rpm); the red area
indicates propeller overspeed
3
Fuel Flow
(FFLOW GPH)
Displays current fuel flow in gallons per hour (gph)
4
Exhaust Gas Temperature Bar
Graph (EGT °F)
The number of the cylinder with the highest Exhaust Gas Temperature
(EGT) is highlighted in light blue and its readout given below the
bar graph in degrees Celsius (°C).
A light blue mark appears to represent the peak EGT for the selected
cylinder when the ASSIST Softkey is pressed
5
Cylinder Head Temperature
Bar Graph (CHT °F)
The number of the cylinder with the highest head temperature is
highlighted in light blue and its readout given below the bar graph
in degrees Celsius (°C).
A caution or warning condition is denoted by color change of a
cylinder’s bar to yellow or red, respectively.
While the EIS Lean Display is selected, the CYL SLCT Softkey can be pressed to obtain information about a
particular cylinder on both the EGT and CHT graphs. The selected cylinder is highlighted in light blue. The
CYL
SLCT Softkey is disabled during warning or caution conditions or when the ASSIST Softkey is pressed.
The ASSIST Softkey may be used to assist in the leaning process by identifying the EGT peak (shown as a
light blue bar) of the selected cylinder. Pressing this softkey causes the EGT deviation from peak (∆ PEAK) to be
displayed under the fuel flow readout. The system automatically switches to the first peak obtained.
Accessing the EIS Lean Display:
1) Press the ENGINE Softkey.
2) Press the LEAN Softkey.
3) To return to the default Engine Display, press the ENGINE or BACK Softkey.
Monitoring the desired cylinder’s EGT and CHT:
From the Lean Display, press the CYL SLCT Softkey to cycle through each cylinder and view its EGT and CHT.
The selected cylinder is shown in light blue.
Selecting the Engine Leaning Assist function:
From the Lean Display, press the ASSIST Softkey to identify the peak. The peak temperature for the selected
cylinder is indicated with a hollow block on the EGT Bar Graph and the temperature deviation from peak is
shown underneath the EGT Bar Graph.
