Alarm Indicators
Any time a built-in or preconfigured alarm set point is exceeded, you are alerted to the fact via the alarm bar and menu at
the bottom of the screen.
When an alarm is triggered , the following things occur:
 A red alarm bar appears at the bottom of the screen with a message identifying the out of range measurement
 Below the alarm bar, the alarm menu gives you options for what to do next. See the following subsections for more
information
Note that alarms may not be acknowledged during the initial two seconds of the first alarm.
In an alarm condition, the EFIS-D60 does not alert you audibly. The audio out connection on the EFIS-D60 is for AOA
alerts only.
ALARM ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
To acknowledge the alarm, press the ACK button. The ACK button has a number next to it indicating the number of
currently posted alarms. If this number is higher than 1, after you press ACK, you will see the alarm text for the next
posted alarm. Pressing ACK does the following:
 Removes the alarm bar and alarm menu (if no other alarms are stacked up), and brings up the previous menu.
 Stops the blinking of the relevant display
The tic and numeric value remain red un til the condition no longer exists. The alarm automatically rearms whenever the
alarm condition is removed.
