FlyingAggie Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 I am confused by the JPI engine monitor in my Mooney. I thought it was the ubiquitious JPI 700, but now I am not sure if I actually have a JPI 700. The POH Supplement list the device as a JPI EGT 701. It looks like a 700 and has some of the functions of a JPI 700. In step mode it steps thu oil temp, OAT, BAT Voltage, EGT & CHT for each cyl and TiT. It has a ROP Lean Find mode and a normalized mode. I didn't know how to put it in LOP Lean Find mode, but that mode is not mentioned in the POH Supplement. I will try that next time I fly. It does have a setup mode where you can program various alarms. It was installed in 1992. I haven't been able to find any listing for JPI EGT 701 on the JPI site, so is the JPI EGT 701 a JPI 700?Alan
Parker_Woodruff Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 The install manual references its similarity to a 700/800... http://www.jpinstruments.com/700_800_installation_103_%203.PDF
Magnum Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 The 700/730/800/830 are all a 701. They all share the same STC.
aschardt Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 I believe I read once that if it has fuel flow, it's a 701, otherwise it's a 700. -Aaron
drpep Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Well I have the JPI 701 in my Mooney. To my limited knowledge, the difference between a 700 and a 701 is as someone else mentioned the 701 has built in the fuel flow and the 700 does not. Two years ago I had the 700 with a separate 450 fuel flow gage. Philip
