Document Precedence

This Pilot’s Guide provides general information about the operation

of the ESI-2000. Refer to your FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual

(AFM) and its ight manual supplements for information specic to

your aircraft. If there is conicting information between the AFM and

this guide, the AFM takes precedence over this guide.

Export Notice

This technical data has been released into the public domain in

compliance with EAR Part 734.7-11.

This Pilot’s Guide is subject to change without notice. The illustrations

in this guide are typical to the ESI-2000, but may not exactly match

your conguration options or the latest release of the unit.

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 23/25 Fixed Wing

Aircraft and Part 27/29 Rotorcraft. The Trilogy ESI-2000 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

outtted with aging or traditional analog gauges. An internal battery

provides backup power for at least 1 hour. Heading is also available,

when coupled with the optional magnetometer or congured to

receive ARINC 429 Heading , which enables the system to display

heading in a dedicated window.

Revision E Highlights

Incorporate Release 1.2.

Minor corrections.

Description

Introduction

CHAPTER 1

DESCRIPTION

Refer to Figure 1-1. The ESI-2000 Electronic Standby Indicator is a

panel mounted solid state instrument that provides a visual display of

attitude (pitch & roll), slip/skid indicator, barometric corrected altitude,

indicated airspeed, heading (optional), and battery indications.

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

(320 X 240 RGB). Flicker free operation is obtained with a 60 Hz

refresh rate combined with a minimum 30 Hz update rate.

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, display and button brightness, and access to menu

options. A replaceable battery assembly provides backup power.

Airspeed Unit Descriptor that is shown on the display to show

which unit type is being used.

Release 1.2. New conguration option to receive heading

information digitally from an external source. New VG mode for

Part 27/29 rotorcraft. New display message to give pilot choice to

perform alignment when a overrate condition is detected. Provide

“wrapping” functionality to non-numeric Menu lists. “Attitude Fail”

is displayed when a problem is detected during alignment instead

of waiting for alignment to complete. Provide customer option for

Static Source Error Correction (SSEC) and Maximum Indicated

Airspeed (Max IAS) functionality set by the factory. Additional

software improvements.
