An engine-indicating and crew-alerting system (EICAS) [1] is an integrated system used in modern aircraft to provide aircraft flight crew with instrumentation and crew annunciations for aircraft engines and other systems. On EICAS equipped aircraft the "recommended remedial action" is called a checklist.
ECAM is similar to other systems, known as Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS), used by Boeing, Bombardier, COMAC, Dornier, Embraer, Saab, and Xi'an, Centralized Fault Detection System (CFDS) on McDonnell Douglas, or Engine Warning Display (EWD) on ATR, which display data concerning aircraft systems and also failures.
EICAS (Engine Indications and Crew Alerting System) displays information about the aircraft's systems, including its fuel, electrical and propulsion systems (engines). EICAS displays are often designed to mimic traditional round gauges while also supplying digital readouts of the parameters.
The Engine Indication and Crew Alerting System (EICAS), used by Boeing and Embraer, or the Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor (ECAM), used by Airbus, allow the pilot to monitor the following information: values for N1, N2 and N3, fuel temperature, fuel flow, the electrical system, cockpit or cabin temperature and pressure, control surfaces ...
ECAM may refer to: Electronic centralised aircraft monitor, a system that monitors aircraft functions and relays them to the pilots; Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, a medical journal; École Catholique des Arts et Métiers, an engineering school in Lyon, France; ECAM Rennes - Louis de Broglie, an engineering school in ...
The 757's flight deck uses six Rockwell Collins CRT screens to display flight instrumentation, as well as an electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) and an engine indication and crew alerting system (EICAS). [24] These systems allow the pilots to handle monitoring tasks previously performed by the flight engineer. [24]

The aircraft design had wings with supercritical airfoils, used a FADEC system for engine control, plus EICAS and EFIS avionics systems. [28] Fastest cruise speed was about 350–360 knots (650–670 km/h; 400–410 mph) at an altitude of around 7,600 m (25,000 ft). Most economical cruise altitude was at 9,100–10,700 m (30,000–35,000 ft).
