On-Board Computer Functions with Column Stalk Switch: Notes

Pressing the on-board computer button (I  ) on the LH column stalk, displays the first computer function in the sequence. With each subsequent press of the button, the next function is displayed. The sequence of displayed functions can be programmed by the driver and can be scrolled through continuously to reach the desired function display.

When all the functions have been scrolled through once, the message center appears blank, signifying the end of the function display. When the on-board computer function display is subsequently requested, the message center will display the first function in the sequence. If the function display is interrupted by a system message from the LCM, when the column stalk button is pressed or the check control button is pressed, the last displayed function will reappear in the message center.

The on-board computer function will only be displayed if the LCM releases the message center for function display. This will only occur if the LCM is not displaying any high priority messages at the time. The LCM registers the request for on-board computer function display and, if there are no messages or the displayed message is of a low priority, the on-board computer function is permitted use of the LCD message center.

The following list shows the possible on-board computer functions and their standard sequence of display. This order will be reinstated after a system reset.
