    Text in the Eicas

    Hi ,

    In the Eicas, it's possible to add or to suppress some texts. For example "No Smoking"
    How to make? Thank you for your help.

    On the machine that is running your EICAS, you can press the TAB key on that keyboard 3 times. with each press some of the text is inhibited.

    No you cannot add any custom text I am affraid. but as you presss the TAB key multiple times it turns the options on one by one and then removes them one by one.

    Try it you will see what I mean.

    Hi

    Sorry Trev, but you can by using pmSystems.

    the part has to be below [logics]
    e.g. for 737

    setmessage '4 Less BRAKEACCU' brakeaccu < 200

    This display LESS BRAKEACCU in EICAS.
    Regards
    Thomas

    I am trying to disable all text in my EICAS like "AUTOBRAKE OFF", "NO SMOKE ON", "PARK BRAKE SET" and etc

    Anybody knows how to do it? Using TAB keyboard key in my case is changing EICAS pages like pressing ENG pushbutton for diferent EICAS view...

    Am I doing something wrong or there is another way to disable those texts?

    Thanks
