EFIS warning light

[lenene]

I want to install an EFIS warning light connected to pin 29 per the installation manual when I get a red level on one of the engine indicators (such as low oil pressure). As far as I can tell, the light will come on and stay on until I do something to reduce the exceedance. Is there a way I can have a reset or acknowledge button or ? to extinguish the light and then have it armed to come on again when another exceedance occurs? I don't want to have to go thru the routine with the 5 buttons to clear the warning. I want something simple.
Related to this is installing the AURAL warning, Is this a tone, a generated voice ("low oil pressure"), or what? And can it be easily reset?
thanks

I have the Warning light setup in my CJ. The Red light goes on when there is a warning message on the SV. It goes out when you acknowledge the warning on the far right button on the screen (where the message, caution, warnings come up).

The message button/clear button is always on top.

The message is aural in that the bitching betty says "Cylinder Temp" or "Oil Pressure"

George,
The light can be programmed to stay on whenever something is out of range until it is fixed, or extinguish once acknowledged. A new alert will cause it to come back on. Acknowledgment is just pressing the right-most button on the SkyView, which is our message button.

Our alerts are voice, not tones. They only occur once per event, so there is no need (or way) to cancel them.

OOOPS, I forgot to mention this is for a D-180. Answers to my question still the same? thanks

The alerts in a D180 are a tone if you only have the D180, or can be a voice or tone if you have an AP-74 or HS-34.

The ACK works the same.
