The exceedance timer feature is useful for managing engine and aircraft systems
within safe operating limits. The feature relies on the installer to configure specific
aircraft/engine data and it is possible not all operating limitations are entered into the
EIS system. The pilot in command is responsible to know and abide by all published
limitations and operating ranges in the POH/AFM.
While the timer counts down, attempt to remedy the exceeding parameter by
managing aircraft systems or reducing engine power.
