EFIS-D10A Pilot’s User Guide

When configured for voice alerts, the HS34 reads out an alarm that occurs, such as “CHT 1 HIGH” or “LOW
FUEL.” These voice alarms can be acknowledged and silenced just like the EMS tone.

SHOW PAGE

If the alarming measurement is not displayed on your current screen, or is available on a page which displays it better, a
SHOW [PAGE] button is included in the alarm menu. [PAGE] is replaced with the name of the actual page that is
displayed when you press the button. Press this button to display the page where the alarming measurement is best
displayed. From there, you may press GO BACK to return to your original screen, leaving the alarm indications active,
or press ACK to remove the alarm indications and return to your original screen.

ALARM ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

To acknowledge the alarm, press the ACK button. The ACK button has a number next to it indicating the number of
currently posted alarms. If this number is higher than 1, after you press ACK, you will see the alarm text for the next
posted alarm. Pressing ACK does the following:

 Removes the alarm bar and alarm menu (if no other alarms are stacked up), and brings up the previous menu.
 Stops the blinking of the relevant display
 Returns the display to the screen configuration displayed before the alarm occurred (if you pressed SHOW [PAGE])

The tic and numeric value remain red until the condition no longer exists. The alarm automatically rearms whenever the
alarm condition is removed.

When acknowledging a voice alert from the HS34 or AP74, the full text of the current alarm is read before it is
silenced; no other queued alarms will be announced after that.
