These indications shall include but are not limited to:

Gas Generator Speed (Ng) Turbine Gas Temperature (TGT) Power Turbine Speed (Np) Rotor Speed (Nr) Engine Torque All installed chip detectors for engines and gearboxes Engine and main gearbox oil temperature and pressure Oil filter bypass indications Fuel quantity indicators for inboard and external tanks The test set needs to provide the interconnecting and power control which allows maintenance personnel to simulate specific inputs required for calibration and testing of the systems associated with the indication above.

The MH-60T test set will interface with the aircraft wiring harness through the installed cannon plugs and provide an appropriate signal to simulate engine and fuel indication parameters.
