APPENDICES INDEX
1
Torque Gauge
(TRQ FT-LB)
Displays engine torque in foot-pounds (ft-lb)
Warning indication is propeller speed sensitive and changes for speeds
between 1800 and 1900 rpm.
A light blue bug (Figure 3-5) represents the recommended cruise torque
setting (appears for certain combinations of propeller speed, Outside Air
Temperature (OAT), airspeed, and altitude)
2
Interstage Turbine
Temperature Gauge
(ITT °C)
Displays Interstage Turbine Temperature (ITT) in degrees Celsius (°C)
Operating ranges differ for engine off, start and running conditions. When
the engine is off or in the process of being shut down, ‘OFF’ is annunciated
above the digital temperature readout. When the engine is being started,
‘STRT’ is annunciated and a white line leads to a red pointer representing
the ITT temperature which must not be exceeded while starting; when the
engine is running, there is no annunciation (Figure 3-6).
