ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
DC current for each alternator (pointers labeled “1” and “2”) and voltage for the DC bus are shown along
color-coded horizontal scales, with readouts to the right. The ammeter displays the battery load in amperes
(amps) along a horizontal scale. A white tick mark indicates zero amps. Only readouts appear for all electrical
information in Reversionary Mode.

VACUUM PRESSURE
The Vacuum Gauge (Figure 3-15) displays the amount of suction in the vacuum system measured in inches of
mercury (in Hg) along a horizontal slider next to a readout. If the vacuum suction is below 2 in Hg, the readout
becomes yellow and a caution is issued. In Reversionary Mode, only the readout is displayed.

FLAP INDICATOR
Flap position (Figure 3-16) is normally displayed beneath the vacuum pressure indication using a rotating
pointer. Flap positions are labeled 0°, 10°, 20°, and 36°. In Reversionary Mode, a digital readout is provided
for flap position.
