Warning limits
Posted: Mon May 01, 2023 2:59 pm
Given that GRT EFIS/EIS does not support warning ranges for various engine metrics … I am curious how do you set your limits .. for instance - if the engine spec says something like “CHT normal operating range is between X and 230 F . Max is 260F” ..
Do you guys set the max at 230 or 260 ? Normally you would just set 230-260 range to generate a warning ( yellow range ) and do the alarm at 260 but in this case I am thinking setting the alarm at 230 would be more useful - on the other hand when it gets hot I quite often hit the 230 range on my climb outs so wouldn’t want to have alarm going off all the time … hence the dilemma
