ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
6.1 INTRODUCTION
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) provides
the flight crew with gauges, bar graphs, and numeric
readouts of engine parameters. The EIS is displayed on
the left side of the MFD during normal operations. In
reversionary mode, the GDUs are re-configured to present
PFD symbology together with the EIS (the EIS is displayed
on the left side).
NOTE: Refer to the System Overview for informa-
tion regarding reversionary mode.
EIS PAGES
The EIS has information on three pages, which are
accessed using the ENGINE softkey:
• Engine Page – This is the default page, which dis-
plays all critical engine, fuel, and electrical informa-
tion.
• Lean Page – This page provides engine leaning
information and a user interface to perform engine
leaning.
• System Page – This page displays a numeric readout
for the critical engine, fuel and electrical indica-
tors.
EIS INDICATORS
The EIS Pages display engine information using round
dial gauges, horizontal bar indicators, bar graphs (see
Lean Page), and digital readouts:
NOTE: All EIS pages show the gauge(s), Fuel
Quantity Indicator, and fuel flow.
Round Dial Gauges
The gauges are color-coded and have a white pointer.
A white digital readout appears beneath the gauge.
Figure 6-1 Round Dial Gauges: Manifold
Pressure Gauge and Tachometer
Tachometer (RPM)
The tachometer is displayed as a round dial gauge
near the top of the page. Propeller speed is shown in
revolutions per minute (RPM).
Colors along the arc of the gauge represent:
• White (low RPM) –
Below normal flight operating
range
• Green – Normal flight operating range
• White (high RPM) – Above normal flight operating
range (Models 206 and T206)
• Red – Propeller overspeed
Manifold Pressure Gauge (MAN IN) - Models 182, T182,
206, T206
The Manifold Pressure gauge displays the engine
power in inches of mercury (in Hg). A white tick mark is
displayed indicating the cruise manifold pressure (Model
T182 only).
