Section 4 - Operating Modes

The EDM has four basic operating modes: Automatic, Manual, Program
and LeanFind. LeanFind is described in the next section; Program mode
is described on page 38, ‘First Time Setup and Customization’. When
you first turn on the power the EDM starts in the Manual mode, but will
enter the Automatic mode after a few minutes. The Automatic mode
provides you with engine monitoring information for the majority of
flight conditions. To optimize the mixture, use the LeanFind mode. To
display specific parameters, use the Manual mode. In either Automatic
or Manual modes, the display always shows the Scanner bar graphs for
EGT and CHT for each cylinder and TIT (if so equipped).

Automatic Mode

To activate Automatic Scanner Mode, just tap the

LF

button, then

tap the

STEP

button. In the Automatic mode the EDM changes which

measurement is displayed every four seconds (factory default is ‘Auto
Scan Rate 4’), however you can change this rate in the Program Mode.
A setting of zero disables auto scanning altogether.

Some non-primary measurements can be excluded from the Automatic
mode:
tap

STEP

to enter the Manual mode. Tap

STEP

repeatedly to index

to the measurement you want to exclude. Then tap both the

STEP

and

LF

buttons simultaneously. Excluded measurements display a decimal point
before the measurement name. For example:

Included: 1540

CDT

Excluded: 1540

CDT

Tapping the

STEP

and

LF

buttons simultaneously will toggle back and

forth between include and exclude. Note: All measurements are always
checked for alarm conditions every second.

 Every time you turn on the EDM, all measurements are reset to be

included.

All installed measurements are always displayed in the Manual

mode. Exclusion only applies to the Automatic mode.
