A liquid crystal display (LCD) only Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS) for Boeing 757 and Boeing 767 aircraft which utilizes Engine Alert Processors from a previously certified CRT EICAS and minimizes changes in hardware and software design by simultaneously generating both cathode ray tube (CRT) drive commands and LCD drive commands while only using the LCD drive commands for display of EICAS information during flight.
