Programming the Range of the EGT Columns of Bars:
The range of the EGT columns of bars may be customized to accommodate any engine or pilot preference. This
is done by programming the temperatures at which the Upper and Lower Bars come on (Trip Points). The objec-
tive in setting the Trip Points is to get the height of the EGT bars low in their columns during a climb, and high in
their columns when the engine is leaned or near peak EGT.

At 75% power, lean your engine to peak EGT. Record the EGT temperatures for each cylinder. Program
the Upper EGT Bar Trip Point 50’F above the recorded highest EGT temperature. As you get to know your
engine’s normal operating temperatures, you may want to adjust this Trip Point.

In a normal cruise power condition, at low altitude, adjust the mixture to full rich and wait for the EGTs to
stabilize. Once the EGTs have stabilized, record the EGT temperatures for each cylinder. Program the
Lower EGT Bar Trip Point 100’F below the lowest recorded EGT temperature. As you get to know your
engine’s normal operating temperatures you may want to adjust this Trip Point.
