REFLECTOR: Annunicators?

[Rene Dugas]

Attached a pic of my LED's.   The switch activates all for test.  The
Yellows are now the doors.

Don,

 

I'm working on my panel as well.  This is what I have planned for my
annunciator panel:

Pilot Door Ajar (RED)

Co-Plot Door Ajar (RED)

Speed Brake Down (YELLOW)

Fuel Pump On (GREEN)

Pitot Heat On (GREEN)

Alternator Out (RED)

Starter Engaged (GREEN)

Lower Gear (RED) (i.e. warning to lower gear)

 

In addition to the visual warning, red warning indicators will be connected
to an audio alert wired into an unswitched input on the audio panel.

So I'm thinking about building an annunicator panel (with a "Push-to-Test"
and dimmer). 

Currently the list of indicators I have come up with is:

Pilot Door Unsafe - RED
CoPilot Door Unsafe - RED
Low Voltage - RED
Low Oil Press - RED
Nose Gear Down - GREEN
Left Main Down - GREEN
Right Main Down - GREEN
Fuel Pump On - AMBER
Hydraulic Pump On - AMBER
Pitot Heat - AMBER

I'm going to have a pair of GRT displays so I'm thinking the low voltage,
low oil press would be provided by their engine monitoring and would be
unnecessary on an annunicator.

What else would be good to have on an annunicator panel? Landing, nav and
strobe lights?
