Garmin® International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ:
GRMN), is pleased to announce an update to the GI 275 engine
indication system (EIS) that includes enhanced display layouts
that optimize display space and show more engine data on a single
page, ultimately helping pilots quickly view essential engine, fuel
and electrical data. In addition, improved graphical information
and gauges are used to help pilots dynamically visualize sensor
data and accurately assess the aircraft’s engine performance. As an
alternative to the dual-concentric knob, the intuitive touchscreen
user interface now features page shortcuts that allow the pilot to
switch pages with just a single touch of the display. Other
enhancements include a new Flight Summary Page, Engine Percent
Power display, EIS page shortcuts, user customizable EIS fields,
and more.

“These new features and enhancements to the user interface have
been added to the GI 275 EIS to provide an intuitive and detailed
engine, fuel and electrical indications solution,” said Carl Wolf,
Garmin vice president of aviation sales and marketing. “It is an
incredibly capable product. This update, combined with the ability
to use wireless engine data logging to help protect and optimize
their engine investment makes the GI 275 EIS the perfect
cost-effective and modern EIS upgrade for piston powered aircraft
owners.”
Improved EIS page layouts and capabilities
A new bar graph on the Main EIS Page displays exhaust gas
temperature (EGT) and cylinder head temperature (CHT) for
individual cylinders. For quicker and easier interpretation of
engine data, font sizes of select EIS values have been increased.
In addition, a new combined EGT/CHT page brings these indications
into a single page for simplified monitoring. Other new features
include Normalized Mode and turbine inlet temperature (TIT) Lean
functionality for appropriately equipped aircraft, improved fuel
tank bar gauges, and the ability to display Engine Percent Power at
the top of the screen1.
New Flight Summary Page
A new Flight Summary Page contains aircraft timers, maximum RPM
and temperature limitations for the engine, as well as fuel and
lean data that is dynamically updated throughout the flight for
real-time analysis in the air, along with a comprehensive
post-flight review of engine data on the ground.
EIS Page shortcuts and customizable fields
Shortcuts have been added with increased touch functionality to
enable pilots to quickly access more detail with regard to specific
EIS data. With a single touch of the EGT/CHT indications on the
main page, the GI 275 EIS quickly switches to the dedicated EGT/CHT
page. To more easily access fuel calculations, pilots can touch the
fuel gauge from the main page to switch to the fuel computer page.
In addition, pilots can touch the RPM area on any page to return to
the main page. Pilots also now have the ability to customize the
AUX Page EIS fields relevant to their flight with user selectable
buttons accessed via the touch screen.
Wireless EIS Data Logging and Streaming
Pilots can stream and view EIS data in real-time on the Garmin
Pilot™ App, with the data later uploaded automatically to
flyGarmin.com for storage and further review. This seamless
integration allows owners and operators to get the most out of
their aircraft and engine investment by easily reviewing real-time
and historical engine data performance at any time.
Lightweight and compact, the GI 275 EIS is a reliable, modern
and feature-packed engine indication solution intentionally
designed to take advantage of the common 3.125-inch flight
instrument size, reducing installation time and preserving the
existing aircraft panel. In addition, its vibrant, high-resolution
touchscreen display and wide viewing angle offers superior
readability in the cockpit. These new GI 275 EIS capabilities are
expected to be available in August 2021 via a software update. For
full installation details, and to purchase the GI 275 EIS, contact
a Garmin Authorized Dealer. The GI 275 also comes with a two-year
warranty and is supported by Garmin’s award-winning aviation
