Engine Data Management

A single EGT gauge merely gives you an average of each cylinder’s
temperature: some cylinders can be too rich, while others too lean.
Variations produced by differences in fuel distribution, ignition, and
compression will cause each cylinder to follow its own mixture and
temperature relationship such that one cylinder will reach peak before
another.

Section 2 - Displays and Controls

The EDM monitors engine temperatures and voltages, assists in
adjusting the fuel/air mixture, and helps diagnose engine malfunctions.
There are three components of the user interface:

 Analog display including cylinder number and index dot
 Digital display for numeric readouts and messages
 Two front panel operating buttons.
