Electronics International MVP-50P - Manual (Page 11)

1.1 Features:
The MVP-50P is a state-of-the-art Glass Panel Engine Monitor
with in-flight data that provides most of the engine and system
instruments found in an aircraft panel. Each of the instruments
displayed on the MVP’s Main Engine Screen provides features not
found in most multifunctional displays or traditional gauges.
Aircraft panels equipped with individual instruments require a pilot
to scan and interpret a multitude of gauges spread across an entire
panel. By providing a single location for viewing the engine and
many aircraft system instruments, the MVP reduces a pilot’s
workload and the chance of missing a problem. Additionally, the
MVP provides both analog and digital displays with digits that blink
and change colors when yellow or red operating ranges are
reached, an external Caution and Warning Light can be placed in
front of the pilot, and a Voice Warning system (experimental only)
is provided. All of these features are designed to alert the pilot the
moment any monitored function enters a red or yellow operating
range.
1.2 Overview of the MVP Screens:
Main Engine Screen (see section 2.0): The Main Engine
Screen displays most of the engine and aircraft instruments
monitored by the MVP. This is the screen the MVP displays after
power-up and is the screen the pilot will view for most of the flight.
System Screen (see section 3.0): The System Screen is
intended to display functions that do not need to be displayed
continuously. If any function on the System Screen reaches a red
or yellow operating range, a system annunciator located between
the RPM and M.P. displays on the Main Engine Screen will blink.
In this way the pilot is alerted of a potential problem and should
view the System Screen for further information.
Flight Data Screens (see section 4.0): The Flight Data Screen
Menu provides access to screens designed to assist the pilot in
aircraft and engine operation, flight management, procedures, rules
and regulations and a wealth of other information. All of the Flight
Data Screens are displayed against a blue background and data
will be displayed on the left side of the MVP screen. The engine
instruments will be displayed in a digital format on the right side of
the screen against a black background. At the top of the engine
instruments are two annunciators, one for the Main Screen and one
for the System Screen. If any function on the Main or System
