11
The Main Engine Screen displays the aircraft system and engine instruments you will view most frequently during a
flight. There is important information published in the Important Notice section (found in the front of this
manual) that must be read before operating this instrument. Please read the Important Notice section at this
time.
2.1 Power-up Add Fuel Message:
The CGR requires approximately 15 seconds to power-up. You may
want to switch on the Master Switch when first entering the aircraft to
insure the CGR is powered up when you are ready to start the engine.
An “Important Safety Info” and “Add Fuel Message” will appear when
the CGR is fully powered up. The purpose of this message is to remind
you to read the important information and to update the fuel computer if
you have added fuel to the aircraft. The CGR can display the estimated
fuel on-board the aircraft calculated from the fuel flow. This allows you
to cross check the fuel readings on your fuel level gauge to ensure
accuracy. The “Add Fuel Message” can be acknowledged by pressing
the “Exit” button or (if you have added fuel to the aircraft) you can
change the displayed fuel quantity by pressing the “Select” knob.
2.2 Main Screen Layout:
The Main Screen is laid out in the following four areas:
RPM and Manifold Pressure (see section 2.3): The RPM and
Manifold Pressure instruments are located at the top of the Main
screen. Each of these instruments incorporates a large arc and
digital display. Other functions may be placed in this location.
Three Horizontal Strip Gauges (see section 2.4): A series of
three Horizontal Strip Gauges (with digital readouts) are located on
the right side of the screen. A number of different functions may be
placed in this location.
Bar Graph (see section 2.5): The Bar Graph is located in the
lower left portion of the Main screen. The Bar Graph monitors
both EGTs and CHTs. The Bar Graph provides both bar graph
and digital formats and incorporates features for leaning, detecting
and diagnosing engine problems. The “SELECT knob controls the display and operation of the Bar Graph
portion of the screen.
EGT/CHT Digital Gauges (see section 2.5): The two digital displays located at the bottom of the Main
screen provides EGT and CHT data based on the bar graph operating mode selected.
