Eis Page Reversion - Garmin G1000 Pilot's Manual

ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
Colors along the arc of the gauge represent:
• White (low pressures) – Below normal operating range
• Green – Normal operating range
• White (high pressures) – Above normal operating
range
• Red – Maximum manifold pressure (turbocharged)
Horizontal Bar Indicators
These indicators are color-coded and have triangular
pointers. Pointers appear in white to indicate operation
within the acceptable range. The pointer color changes to
yellow or red when operating outside the normal range.
The green bands on the horizontal bar indicators represent
normal ranges of operation.
Figure 6-2 Horizontal Bar Indicator: Fuel Quantity
Fuel Quantity (FUEL QTY GAL)
The Fuel Quantity Indicator displays the quantity of
fuel in the tanks in gallons. The indicator ranges from
0 to F (full). Tick marks are at every 10 gallons, up to
30 gallons (20 gallons for the Model 172). Two pointers
labeled L (left) and R (right) indicate the number of gallons
in each fuel tank. When full, the indicator displays to 35
gallons per side (26 gallons for the Model 172).
• Green – Normal
• Yellow – Caution (low)
• Red – Warning

Digital Readouts
These readouts appear as white text on a black
background, representing areas of normal operation.
The color changes to black text on a yellow background
(caution) or white text on a red background (warning)
upon exceeding areas of normal operation.

EIS PAGE REVERSION

The EIS automatically defaults back to the Engine Page
from the Lean or System Page when any of the following
parameters are exceeded:
Fluctuations in engine speed and fuel quantity above
certain levels, depending on the airframe, also cause
reversion back to the Engine Page.
(*) The Cylinder Head Temperature reversion criterion
does not apply to the Model 172.
