The EGT Max Temperature simply defines the temperature that is represented by a bar that is full screen in height.

For example if EGT Max Temperature is set to 1600 deg than a temperature of 1600 deg will be rendered as a bar that

reaches the top of the screen.

The G3’s Autorange Inflection is always 400 deg below the EGT Max Temperature. Adjusting one will therefore always

affect the other automatically.

EGT Smoothing

The lower the number the faster the sampling but less smooth (jumpier)

Factory preset is 32

Adjusting the bar heights from the main screen (Method 3):

An alternative way to setup the scale of the temperature bargraphs can be performed from the main screen.

Press the SEL button and a message appears: “TURN-ADJUST BAR HEIGHT”.

By turning the SEL button the heights of the bars may be moved up and down.

Pressing the SEL button twice more returns the G3-4 to its normal mode.

If we return to the User Configuration screen, we will see that EGT MAX TEMPERATURE and AUTORANGE

INFLECTION have been adjusted to reflect our changes to the bar height.

If the adjustment is to become permanent we must select Save Config and set it to yes.
