What is the purpose of the EICAS status page?

The EICAS (Engine Indication and Crew Alerting System) status page is primarily designed to provide the flight crew with an overview of the aircraft's operational status. This includes information related to systems that are currently active or may need the crew's attention, helping to ensure the safe operation of the aircraft. On the status page, you might find alerts regarding any non-normal conditions, notifications of systems status, and general operational readiness indicators.

While the throttle positions, engine performance data, and cabin pressure levels are important aspects of aircraft performance and safety, these are typically displayed on other pages of the EICAS system rather than the status page. The specific focus of the EICAS status page on the operational status makes it a critical tool for the crew during flight, ensuring all systems are functioning within their required parameters and alerting them to any issues that may arise.
