Service Procedures
Like many modern electronic devices, the Graphic Engine Monitor is extremely reliable. Other than initial con-
figuration during installation, the G series requires no adjustment or routine maintenance. The G series rou-
tinely performs a self-test on power-up to test its vital functions. Should the G series fail this test, it will halt on a
red screen with a description of the error. Errors of this nature must be returned to the factory for service.
If the instrument performs the self-test successfully but you feel that the instrument is not functioning as ex-
pected discuss the problem with your dealer, or consult the troubleshooting section of the G series Installa-
tion Instructions. Keep in mind that in the vast majority of cases, erratic or unusual G series operation can be
traced to an installation problem, a problem with probes, wiring harness or the aircraft’s electrical system.
Due to its reliability and the extensive testing that it undergoes, the instrument itself is the least likely source of
trouble. For this reason we strongly encourage you to contact Insight Customer Service at one of the numbers
listed below before returning an instrument to the factory, or any time you have any questions concerning the
operation of the Graphic Engine Monitor. By contacting us first we may be able to assist you in correcting your
problem without the hassle and downtime of sending in an instrument that is not the source of the difficulty.
