Engine Parameters - Garmin G1000 Manual

ENGINE & AIRFRAME SYSTEMS
EIS information is presented using gauges, horizontal and vertical bar indicators, slide bars, and digital readouts.
Green ranges on the instrument scales indicate normal ranges of operation; yellow and red bands indicate caution
and warning, respectively. During normal operating conditions, an instrument' s pointer appears in white and the
readout text is green. When data is out of the range of the indicator or gauge, the pointer moves to the end of the
scale; digital readouts display as "---" (dashes).
When an unsafe operating condition occurs, the pointer and readout color change to yellow or flash red,
indicating a caution or warning. If a cautionary time limit is exceeded, the sliders, pointers, and digits may flash
red, even if the parameter is still within in the cautionary range (refer to each display description for details). If
the sensor data for a parameter becomes invalid or unavailable, a red "X" is displayed across the indicator and/or
readout.

ENGINE PARAMETERS

The EIS displays torque, propeller speed, generator speed, and interturbine temperature using arc gauges.
TORQUE GAUGE
The Torque Gauge displays values from 0 to 130% of maximum safe torque. If the torque remains above
122% (TBM 850) or 100% (TBM 900) for more than 5 seconds or exceeds the value indicated by the red tick
mark, a warning condition occurs. The maximum climb torque is displayed as a white triangle (bug) while
the optimum cruise range is displayed as a white band on the Torque Gauge. When bleed pressure reaches
its upper limit, 'BLEED HI' is annunciated above the Torque Gauge.
