C-130 EIDS

First introduced into service in 2004, the IS&S Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) is designed specifically as a low-cost, reliable, FAA/TSO Certified, replacement for the C-130 engine instrument cluster. This easily retrofitted replacement system is compatible with the existing C-130 cockpit configuration. The EIDS displays the existing engine parameters, and propeller related parameters using two (2) Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) and one control panel in lieu of twenty-eight (28) individual electromechanical instruments. The EIDS also provides modular incremental growth path to a full C-130 Flight Deck upgrade.

Benefits:

  • High Resolution LCD
  • Significant Weight and Heat Savings
  • NVIS Compliant
  • Enhanced Readability
  • EIDS Configuration with Optimal Video Input
