Does PM Eicas measure fuel flow?

For the BOEING: Yes, it is calculated and displayed in the EICAS section of the PM Glass Cockpit.

Tnx answer.
Actually looking for a solution on simulate the Fuel switch, flow, reset, used, on the 737 "Autobrake panel."
It is not as simple as I thought, using PM and SIOC.
My first questation somehow ended up very incomplete.
The matter most likely ends up "in holding.."

You can use SIOC and write your own code but the offsets are there in pm software.

Yes, all the PM offsets are there, I actually use them with a GoFlight module.

The only bug I've found is this: even if you have Lbs as the unit of measure set for weights, you get a fuel used value displayed on the EICAS in kilos, no matter what.

Hello.
Inspiring words does very good!
Maybe not vice to admit, but I had the PM f.flow offset working in test mode. However I thought the FF graphic would change and not until I took a good look I saw that only the fuel flow figure changed value.

Anyhow it's great fun with both PM and SIOC.

The best wishes for the Easter-holiday to you all.
