at the moment this is a scratch pad to collect
- information about the CRJ700 family glass cockpit
- ideas how to implement this with the canvas system of FG
- links to relevant canvas documentation
Overview
The CRJ700 has a "glass cockpit" (refering to the six CRT screens in the panel). According to [1] the CRJ700 uses a Colling Proline 4 EFIS. The following picture shows the default assignment of the screens, there is a Primary Flight Display (PFD), a Multi Function Display (MFD) and an EICAS display on each side.
On the pedestal panel (not on the picture) there is a source selector panel to switch display functions in case of a CRT fault or certain other system faults. This is not (yet) implemented in FG CRJ700 family but probably it can be easily done once we have a canvas implementation for all displays.
