Garmin Announces TXi Engine Indication System for Twin Turboprop Aircraft including King Air 90 series
Garmin® International, Inc. recently announced TXiTM engine indication system (EIS) support for select twin turboprop aircraft including the King Air 90 series. Twin turbine aircraft owners and operators will benefit from TXi EIS with features such as engine timers, exceedance recordings, dynamic engine indications, as well as wireless data logging that combine to reduce pilot workload, improve engine efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
“This significant update to TXi EIS allows twin turboprop owners and operators to further modernize their cockpits,” said Carl Wolf, Garmin vice president of aviation sales and marketing. “We are proud to offer a state-of-the-art engine indication solution that replaces expensive-to-maintain traditional round dial gauges, and also provides easy wireless access to valuable engine performance data to help protect the investment made in these turboprop engines.”
Twin-Turbine EIS
Owners and operators of these aircraft can now view EIS infor- mation on a dedicated 7-inch TXi flight display in portrait mode and replace aging round dial EIS gauges with a modernized display to more clearly read engine information and simplify the cockpit. Owners and operators can also benefit from an outside air temperature (OAT) indi- cation that can be set to alert the pilot at thresholds determined by the pilot operating handbook (POH), and actions such as turning on pitot heat can clear the alert from the display. These new enhancements and capabilities are available on
