Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

I imagine this is for the new ES44AC (UP #7613 in the picture is one). 
1- EQUALIZING RESERVOIR PRESSURE: indicates Equalizing Reservoir pressure. The range for this digital marker is 0–200 psi. A digital reading of “– – –” indicates an invalid value from the corresponding transducer and “***” indicates Electronic Air Brake (EAB) is not communicating with the control system.
2- BRAKE PIPE PRESSURE: indicates locomotive Brake–Pipe pressure. The range for this digital marker is 0–200 psi. A digital reading of “– – –” indicates an invalid value from the corresponding transducer and “***” indicates Electronic Air Brake (EAB) is not communicating with the control system.
3- DISTANCE COUNTER: The distance counter displays the distance traveled in feet (up to 99,999 feet) based on the computer input for locomotive reference speed. The counting is bi–directional (counts up when moving forward; back when in reverse). When the counter reaches the 99,999 limit, the counter will reset to –99,999 and continue to count up. When the counter reaches the –99,999, the counter will reset to 99,999 and continue to count down. Press the #1 soft key (DISTANCE START/STOP/RESET) to control counter operation from either
Screen 0000–0 or Screen 1200–0).
4- INDEPENDENT BRAKE STATUS: This status marker indicates whether the Independent Brake function is in LEAD or TRAIL status.
5- AUTOMATIC BRAKE STATUS: This status marker indicates whether the Automatic Brake function is in FREIGHT or PASSENGER status.
6- REVERSER HANDLE POSITION: This status marker indicates whether the Reverser Handle is in “Fwd” (Forward), “Cntr” (Center) or “Rev” (Reverse) position.
7- TRACTIVE EFFORT/LOAD METER (EFFORT KLBS): This graph shows the average dynamic braking or tractive effort (Klbs) from all cut–in traction motors. In dynamic tractive effort, the bar (from 0 to 180 Klbs) is green. In dynamic braking effort, the bar (from 0 to –120 Klbs) is yellow.
Pages 22 - 26, though everything you want to know about the ES44 is in the manual as well: http://bartfk.cba.pl/gfx/opm/SP-ES44DC-GE.pdf
The manual above is for the DC model (ES44DC). The display is the same for both units (ES44DC and ES44AC).

Thank you very much for the info, it's exactly I needed.
The manual is really impressive, apart of very useful.
Thanks again, best regards.
