    eicas monitor panel for MIP

    Hi
    i would be very grateful for any help on this subject
    i am making my own mip which will consist of 3 panels,PFD L/H,EICAS AND PFD R/H
    my question is as follows -i will be using a 19 inch monitor behind the PFD L/H AND R/H
    but in the midle eicas panel i will be using 3 real standby guages (737)you know down the l/h side
    of this panel which means i cant use a 17 inch monitor but one much smaller as just above it will be the flap
    guage -has any one encountered this as i have looked on ebay and other sites for a small monitor to fit
    but they all seem to be either too small or too large -basically has any one built a mip using real standby guages -if so could you please tell me what type of monitor was used for the midle of the MIP
    many thanks
    dave

    Hi efe
    15 inches would be too wide I have 9.5 inches from the
    Back of the real gauges on the left to the back of the flap lever on the right
    The 9.5 inches would have to be the total width of the monitor
    I wouldn't have to worry about the length as it would be hidden at the bottom of the centre of my mip frame
    Thanks for your reply
    And have a good day
    Dave

    A 12 inch 4/3 ratio screen would fit. I got one off ebay with a screen size of 7.5" x 9.5" and an overall frame size of 13" x 9" No known make and ex POS equipmnet, but should give you a guide.

    Well that's tight. 15 inch square monitors have a 10.6 inch edge measurement so I thought that might work. Apparently not for your case. So a smaller monitor is in order.
