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

1.1 Features:
The MVP-50T is a state-of-the-art Glass Panel Engine Monitor
that provides most of the engine and system instruments and
annunciator 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 engine parameters
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 Master Warning and Caution Lights that can be placed in
front of the pilot, and a Voice Warning system. 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 and annunciators
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 goes into the red or yellow, a
“System” annunciator 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 Screen Menu (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 will be
displayed on the left side of the MVP screen. A full set of
annunciators and five primary engine instruments will be displayed on
the right side of the screen against a black background. The
annunciators are divided into two groups. The top right portion of the
screen displays the system annunciator’s setup by the installer. The
middle right portion of the screen displays annunciators associated
with the instruments displayed on the Main screen.
