A Digital Revolution in Standby Instrumentation
The Trilogy™ Electronic Standby Instrument (ESI) is a panel-
mounted solid-state instrument that provides dependable backup
for attitude, altitude and airspeed information for Part 23 Fixed
Wing Aircraft and Part 27/29 Rotorcraft. The Trilogy ESI replaces
traditional electro-mechanical standby instruments and combines
the information into a compact and easy to read 4” x 3” display. Its
space-saving footprint, easy installation and complete digital design
make it the ideal standby for both new aircraft as well as those
available, when coupled with the optional magnetometer, which
enables the system to display magnetic heading in a dedicated
window.

Introduction
DESCRIPTION
Figure 1-1: ESI-1000 (showing 2.0 software)
Pilot’s Guide 1-1
Refer to Figure 1-1. The ESI-1000 Electronic Standby Indicator is a
panel mounted solid state instrument that provides a visual display of
attitude (pitch & roll), slip/skid indicator (2.0 software only), barometric
corrected altitude, indicated airspeed and magnetic heading (optional
for Part 23 aircraft).
The indicator uses an Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display (AMLCD)
with a nominal diagonal size of 3.7 inches and a resolution of ¼ VGA
A bezel mounted light sensor provides automatic dimming with manual
offset controlled via the menu access mode. Four soft key buttons on
the front of the bezel provide the user with quick access for setting
baro level and units (2.0 software only), display and button brightness,
and access to menu options.
