SECTION 3 ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM (EIS)
NOTE: Refer to the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) for limitations and applicable indications.
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) for the Diamond DA42NG displays critical engine, electrical, fuel,
and other system parameters on the left side of the Multi Function Display (MFD) during normal operations
(Figure 3-1).

Display
Figure 3-1 EIS on Multi Function Display (Normal)
EIS information is presented in three displays, accessed using the
ENGINE
Softkey on the MFD:
•Engine Display – Default display, shows all critical engine and fuel indicators
•System Display – Shows graphic and numeric readouts of critical engine, electrical indicators, and optional
deice fluid quantity
•Fuel Display – Shows numeric readouts of fuel indicators and calculations, and total aircraft time in service
The engine load indicator and tachometer are present on all three displays.
The EIS instrument types include vertical slider gauges, horizontal slide bar indicators, and digital readouts.
Green bands indicate normal ranges of operation; yellow and red bands indicate caution and warning, respectively.
When unsafe operating conditions occur, readouts and labels may change color corresponding to the level of the
condition. The pointers (labeled left, L, and right, R) on the horizontal bar indicators appear in white to indicate
normal operation and change to yellow or red to indicate caution or warning conditions.
If sensory data to an instrument becomes invalid or unavailable, a red “X” is shown across the instrument. If a
readout value is out of range, dashes ‘---’ are shown instead of a readout.
