7.1.5 Engine Temperatures too high
If the engine temperature thresholds are exceeded (can be defined in SET-Mode 8, 9,
and 10) the audio/optical alarm sounds and the corresponding temperature read-out
starts to flash. The temperatures continue to be displayed.
7.1.6 Altitude Guidance Mode
The AGM is an audio warning system which helps pilots to maintain a certain altitude
without having to permanently check the altimeter. Detailed information on the AGM
can be found in section 4.3.
7.1.7 Oil Pressure too low or too high
If the oil pressure drops below the minimum oil pressure (SET-Mode 12) or exceeds
the maximum oil pressure (SET-Mode 13), the alarm shows up. This works only with
an analogue oil pressure sender. If a oil pressure switch is used, the alarm is activated
only when the oil pressure drops below a certain threshold defined by the switch.
7.1.8 RPM too high
If the maximum RPM are exceeded (set in SET-Mode 11), the alarm is activated and
the RPM display starts flashing. The actual RPM are still displayed.
7.1.9 ERORR-Messages during Power on Self-Test (BIT)
The
ALPHA
MFD
performs an automatic Self-Test when powering up. All senders are
checked for plausible and correct data and the instrument checks itself.
