INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE

This document is intended to provide necessary information for correct electrical & electronic application and installation of a C7 or C9 truck engine into an on-highway truck, bus, motor coach or vocational chassis. Caterpillar expects there will be some additions and modifications to this document as the engine program development continues, and as OEM requests for information not currently addressed are added. The information contained in this version of the document reflects the Caterpillar design for production C7 and C9 engines built with March 2004 software.
The information herein is the property of Caterpillar Inc. and/or its subsidiaries. Without written permission, any copying, transmittal to others, and any use except that for which it is loaned is prohibited. General Electronic Engine Operation
1.0 Engine Functions
1.1 Electronic Governing Two engine speed range electronic governors are available for use. These electronic governors are selectable through a programmable parameter. 1.2 Fuel/Air Ratio Control The control system has full authority over engine fuel delivery. The mechanical fuel/air ratio control is eliminated. Electronic control of the fuel/air ratio provides optimum performance with reduced emissions. 1.3 Injection Timing Control Injection timing is varied as a function of engine operating conditions to optimize engine performance for emissions, noise, fuel consumption, and drivability. 1.4 Torque Rise Shaping Electronic controls provide increased flexibility to tailor the torque curve over a wide speed range. 1.5 Cold Mode Operation When the engine is started with cold coolant, the engine will operate in Cold Mode. The engine will operate with reduced performance until the coolant temperature has warmed. The Caterpillar electronic service tool software will indicate when the engine is operating in Cold Mode. The C7 engine will operate in Cold Mode below 64 Deg C and the C9 engine will operate in Cold Mode below 40 Deg C.
2.0 Engine Component Overview

2.1 Engine Control Module (ECM) The ECM is located on the left rear side of the engine. The ECM has two connectors, one for the Caterpillar Engine Harness, the other for the Vehicle OEM Harness. 2.2 Boost Pressure Sensor The Boost Pressure Sensor is an absolute pressure sensor measuring inlet manifold pressure. Boost pressure displayed by service tools and communicated over the data link is referenced to the Atmospheric Pressure Sensor reading. The Boost Pressure Sensor measures gauge pressure from 0 psi (0 kPa) to 49 psi (340 kPa). The ECM supplies the sensor with a regulated 5 Volts DC. 2.3 Atmospheric Pressure Sensor The Atmospheric Pressure Sensor is an absolute pressure sensor. The Atmospheric Pressure Sensor measures pressure to 16.8 psiA (116 kPaA). The ECM supplies the sensor with a regulated 5 Volts DC. 2.4 Oil Pressure Sensor An optional Oil Pressure Sensor is available for use in applications where an actual oil pressure indication is desired. Typical applications include vehicles with a vehicle data link capable Instrument Cluster that can display engine information. C7 or C9 engines do not require Engine Lube Oil Pressure monitoring because the HEUI (Hydraulically actuated Electronically controlled Unit Injector) fuel system requires oil pressure for the engine to operate. Without sufficient oil pressure, the fuel system cannot supply fuel to the engine. The Oil Pressure Sensor measures gauge pressure from 0 psi (0 kPa) to 165 psi (1135 kPa). Oil Pressure as displayed by service tools and communicated over the data link is referenced to the Atmospheric Pressure Sensor reading. The ECM supplies this sensor with the necessary voltage. 2.5 Coolant Temperature Sensor The thermistor based Coolant Temperature Sensor is used to monitor engine coolant temperature. Output from this sensor is used for several engine functions including Inlet Air Heater Operation, Cold Mode Operation, Cold Elevated Idle and the Engine Monitoring System. 2.6 Inlet Manifold Air Temperature Sensor The Inlet Manifold Air Temperature Sensor is used to measure the inlet air temperature and is thermistor based like the Coolant Temperature Sensor. This sensor output is used in controlling the Inlet Air Heater, Cold Elevated Idle, Cooling Fan Output, and for Engine Monitoring. 2.7 Engine Speed/Timing Sensors The engine speed/timing sensors are used to determine both engine speed and fuel injection timing. The sensors detect this information from a wheel on the camshaft. 2.8 Coolant Level Sensor The coolant level sensor is an option device used to monitor the engines coolant level. This sensor is usually mounted in the cooling systems surge tank. There are three types of sensors that may be used. 2.9 Injection Actuation Pressure (IAP) Sensor The Injection Actuation Pressure Sensor measures the pressure in the high-pressure oil manifold. This oil is used to feed the hydraulically actuated electronically controlled unit injectors. The ECM supplies the sensor with the necessary voltage. 2.10 Injection Actuation Pressure Control Valve (IAPCV) This valve controls the output injection actuation pressure of the high-pressure oil pump. The ECM uses the output of the Injection Actuation Pressure Sensor to determine the required output to this valve.
2.11 Inlet Air Heater and Relay The Inlet Air Heater is an engine mounted, Caterpillar supplied and installed heater grid used for warming the inlet air to aid in starting during cold ambient temperatures. Operation is based on elevation (above sea level) and the sum of the Coolant and Inlet Manifold Air temperatures. The ECM controls the normally open relay to provide battery power to the grid. 2.12 Fuel Pressure Sensor A Fuel Pressure sensor is included in the engine pressure sensor package. This sensor monitors the fuel supply pressure to the engine. 2.13 Oil Level Switch (GMT560 Trucks Only) An Oil Level Switch is available only on General Motors engines. This switch is mounted in the oil pan and wired to the Engine Connector (J2) of the ECM. This switch monitors the oil level in the oil pan and is checked at initial engine power up. Proper Oil level in the engine will keep a normally open switch closed. Oil level that is too low will allow the switch to open. If the ECM senses an open switch upon three sequential engine starts, low oil level is indicated.

3.0 Engine Monitoring

The Engine Monitoring system monitors engine coolant temperature, engine oil pressure (optional), coolant level (optional) and Inlet manifold air temperature. C7 and C9 engines are shipped with the Caterpillar coolant temperature sensor and Inlet manifold air temperature sensor. Optional sensors include an engine oil pressure sensor and an OEM supplied coolant level sensor. If a monitored engine parameter exceeds normal conditions, one or more lamps will be turned on and one or more diagnostic codes will be logged. There are three Customer Programmable Levels for the Engine Monitoring Mode parameter. 1) Warning. 2) Derate. 3) Shutdown. 3.1. Engine Monitoring Lamp Options The Check Engine Lamp is a requirement but a Programmable Customer Parameter, Engine Monitoring Lamps, is available to determine what additional lamps are to be turned On if normal engine operating conditions are exceeded. The default option for Engine Monitoring Lamps is Warning Lamp. This default option provides for one lamp output designated as the Warning Lamp and is used for all monitored engine condition warnings. When the Engine Warning Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1, the lamp outputs are re-designated as follows: J1/P1: 29 (normally used as the Warning Lamp) is used as a Low Oil Pressure Lamp. J1/P1: 30 (normally used as a PTO Enabled Lamp) is used as a Low Coolant Lamp. J1/P1: 31 is used as a High Coolant Temperature lamp. The Check Engine Lamp (J1/P1: 28) is unaffected. NOTE: The Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is not available for GM trucks. 3.2. Engine Monitoring and OEM Requirements The OEM is responsible for providing and installing lamps and the optional Coolant Level Sensor. The coolant level sensor is programmed through the Customer Programmable Parameter, Coolant Level Sensor. This parameter has a default factory setting of NO. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Lamp connected to J1/P1: 28 (Check Engine Lamp). 2) Lamp connected to J1/P1: 29 (Warning Lamp or Low Oil Pressure Warning Lamp programmed to Option1). 3) Lamp connected to J1/P1: 30 (Low Coolant Level Warning Lamp programmed to Option 1). 4) Lamp connected to J1/P1: 31 (High Coolant Temp Warning Lamp programmed to Option 1). 5) Coolant Level sensor 4 Pin, 2 Wire Float Sensor or 2 Pin Switch (GM only). Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Coolant Level Sensor programmed to 4-pin or 2 Wire Float Sensor. 2) Engine Monitoring programmed to Warning, Derate, or Shutdown. 3) Warning Lamps programmed to Warning or Option 1.

3.3. Engine Monitoring Engine Sensors The Engine Monitoring System Engine uses the engines sensors to monitor the engines operating condition. Limits have been established for each of the engine conditions monitored by these sensors.
3.3.1. Engine Monitoring Intake Air Temperature Sensor

Intake Manifold Air Temperature is monitored to warn the operator of excessive intake manifold air temperature. Excessive intake manifold air temperatures will not cause the ECM to derate or shutdown the engine when Engine Monitoring is programmed to Derate or Shutdown. Intake Manifold Air Temperature must exceed the triggering temperatures for 30 seconds after engine start up before a Diagnostic Code is generated and logged. A High Intake Manifold Air Temperature Warning diagnostic code is triggered at 194F (90C), and a Very High Intake Manifold Air Temperature at 230F (110C). In addition to the Check Engine Lamp, the Warning Lamp is also turned ON if Engine Monitoring is programmed to Warning, Derate, or Shutdown.
3.3.2. Engine Monitoring Oil Pressure Sensor

The Engine Oil Pressure Sensor is an optional sensor and can be used to automatically protect the engine from operating without sufficient oil pressure. With Engine Monitoring programmed to Warning, the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the Low Oil Pressure trip point. At the Very Low Oil Pressure trip point the Warning Lamp will be turned On in addition to the Check Engine Lamp. When programmed to Derate the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the Low Oil Pressure trip point. At the Very Low Oil Pressure trip point the Warning Lamp will flash and the engine will be derated. When programmed to Shut Down the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the Low Oil Pressure trip point. At the Very Low Oil Pressure trip point the Warning Lamp will flash during engine derate and then the engine will shut down after 30 seconds. The ECM will indicate a Very Low Oil Pressure fault when the Engine Oil Pressure falls below 4 psi (29 kPa) at 750 RPM or below 6 psi (43 kPa) at 800 RPM and higher.
3.3.3. Engine Monitoring Coolant Temperature Sensor

C7 and C9 engines include a Coolant Temperature Sensor as standard equipment. Engine coolant temperature trip points have been established for High and Very High Coolant Temperatures. These trip points are illustrated in the charts on the following pages and are used for logging fault codes. With the Engine Monitoring System programmed to Warning the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the High Coolant Temperature trip point (110-00). At the Very High Coolant Temperature trip point (110-11) the Warning Lamp will turn On in addition to the Check Engine Lamp. When programmed to Derate, the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the High Coolant Temperature trip point. The Warning Lamp will flash at the Very High Coolant temperature trip point and the engine will be derated. When programmed to Shutdown, the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the High Coolant Temperature trip point. The Warning Lamp will flash at the Very High Coolant temperature trip point and the engine will be derated. After 20 seconds the engine will be shut down. The ECM derates available power and limits vehicle speed in steps as temperature increases. Each step represents a reduction in available power and limits vehicle speed as follows: HP REDUCTION = 25% X (rated HP 120 hp [90 kW]) VSL REDUCTION = 25% X (VSL 45 mph [72.5 km/h])
13
The actual rate of change of HP or VSL reduction is limited to 10% per second maximum.

C9 Coolant Temperature Graph for Emergency Vehicles with automatic transmissions 3.3.4. Engine Monitoring Coolant Level Sensor The coolant level will be monitored if an optional Coolant Level Sensor is installed and the Customer Parameter, Coolant Level Sensor, is programmed to one of the available options. The OEM is responsible for providing, installing, and programming the ECM to monitor the optional coolant level sensor. Trip points, times or values, have been established for Low and Very Low coolant levels. When programmed to Warning, the Check Engine Lamp will be turned on at the Low Coolant Level trip point and the Warning Lamp will be turned on at the Very Low Coolant Level trip point. When programmed to Derate, the Check Engine Lamp will be turned on at the Low Coolant Level trip point. At the Very Low Coolant level trip point the Warning Lamp will flash and the engine will be derated. When programmed to Shutdown, the Check Engine Lamp will be turned on at the Low Coolant Level trip point. At the Very Low Coolant Level trip point the Warning Lamp will flash and the engine will be derated. After 30 seconds the engine will shut down. 3.3.5. Low Coolant Level During an Engines First 6 Hours of Operation If a low coolant level condition is detected during the first six hours of engine operation, an OEM clearable fault (111-14) will be recorded. This delay in logging of low coolant level events will allow OEMs to purge air trapped in the engines cooling system during the assembly process. After the engine has logged 6 hours of engine running time, the diagnostic faults and events for Low (111-01) and Very Low Coolant Levels (111-11) will be logged into the ECMs nonvolatile memory. Service technicians are required to contact Caterpillar for permissions to clear Low (111-01) and Very Low (111-11) Coolant Level events from the ECMs nonvolatile memory.

3.4. Engine Monitoring Programmed to Warning Warning is the default setting of the Engine Monitoring System. The ECM monitors Coolant Temperature, Inlet Manifold Air Temperature and the optional Coolant Level or Engine Oil Pressure (if installed). The following table indicates the diagnostic codes available. There is no effect on engine performance when active. The Check Engine Lamp will flash and the Warning Lamp will come ON as indicated in the table when the diagnostic code is active.

OEM INSTALLED COMPONENT REQUIREMENTS and FEATURES

All of the functions described in the following text are available or enhanced if the vehicle OEM provides and installs the appropriate components. The components required for each feature are listed with the particular feature description. It is assumed the associated wire harness necessary for component connection is part of the component.
4.0 Power and Grounding Requirements and Considerations

The ECM requires unswitched power and ground connections. An Ignition Key Switch input is used to turn the ECM ON, allowing the engine to start and run.

4.1 Grounding Proper grounding for vehicle and engine electrical systems is necessary for proper performance and reliability. Improper grounding results in unreliable electrical circuit paths. Stray electrical currents can damage main bearings, crankshaft journal surfaces, and aluminum components. They can also cause electrical noise degrading control system, vehicle, speedometer, and radio performance. These problems are often very difficult to diagnose and repair. All ground paths must be capable of carrying any conceivable fault currents. An AWG # 4 or larger cable is recommended between the engine ground stud and the frame or starter negative post to handle alternator currents. A maximum of three ring terminals are to be connected to the engine ground stud to insure ground connection integrity. More than three terminals can cause the stud to loosen too easily. Caterpillar recommends splicing like size wires together as a method of reducing ring terminal congestion at the ground stud.

4.2 Engine Connection To Vehicle Battery Ground To insure proper functioning of the vehicle and engine electrical systems, there must be a direct wire path from the engine ground stud to the battery negative post. Caterpillar prefers this connection route through the starter negative post. In Figure 13 and Figure 14 an additional ground stud location is identified, either location can be used. A connection routed to a main frame ground, can also be made if the following guidelines are followed: 1) Connections to the frame must not be made with star washers. Star washers should not be counted on to remove paint from painted surfaces. Use flat washers for this connection, with the paint completely removed in this area. 2) Any paint must be completely removed from the frame rail at the point where the connection is made. Failure to do so reduces the effectiveness of the connection. 3) The ground path is not made through frame cross members. Bolted connections of frame cross members may not always provide required continuity for this critical connection. 4) Conductive grease or other methods used to reduce/eliminate the affect of corrosion on the frame rail connection. 5) Caterpillar does not recommend a connection from the engine ground stud to the main frame rail at a connection point different than where the battery ground connection is made. A two-point frame rail connection method depends on frame rail connections. Manufacturing process control of frame rail connections is difficult to control. This multiple frame rail connection scheme is also more difficult to troubleshoot. 4.3 ECM Negative Battery Connections Caterpillar requires the OEM to install the ECM -Battery wires into their harness connector. These connections should be #14 AWG GXL wire.
4.3.1 Engine Ground Stud

C7 and C9 engines use a M8 X 1.25 Thread stud with a 20 mm stud length located on the cylinder head. The stud has two washers and properly sized nut supplied for attaching all OEM supplied ground terminals. 4.4 Electric Starting Motors The truck engine starting system must be able to crank the engine at sufficient speed for fuel combustion to begin normal firing and keep the engine running. This requires adequate battery capacity, a starting motor, and cables to connect the battery to the starter. The following must be observed in order to obtain a satisfactory installation: Electric starting motors must be 12 or 24 volt DC and use a positive engagement pinion drive which engages with the flywheel ring gear before the motor begins to turn. Air or hydraulic starters may also be used. 4.5 Sensor Common Connections Only those components interfacing directly to the ECM should be connected to the ECM Sensor Common connections. ECM Connector P1 terminal-5 should be used to connect the ground side of the following engine control connected items: cruise control switches, clutch pedal position switch, fast idle enable switch, 1 service brake pedal position switch #1, A/C High Pressure switch, and the accelerator pedal position sensor. These components must not be connected to any vehicle ground. Additional Sensor Common connections are also available. ECM terminal-18 (Input Sensor Common #1) and terminal-3 (Input Sensor Common #2) can be used if required by the harness design, for example, to splice all cab components together at terminal-5, and engine compartment components at terminal-18 or terminal-3. Caterpillar recommends that Input Sensor Common #2 remain open for Aftermarket/Body Builder connections. If additional Sensor Common connections are required, please contact Caterpillar. All switches connected to the control system must be externally grounded, two-wire design. Internally grounded or case grounded switches must not be used.
22
OEM installed components used as inputs to the ECM must not be connected to the vehicle or cab ground, and must not be case grounded. OEM installed switches must be grounded to an ECM Sensor Common via a dedicated return line to the ECM.

4.6 Suppression Of Voltage Transients and Electrical Noise Caterpillar recommends transient suppression be installed at the source of the transient in addition to the suppression in the ECM. Caterpillar controls are designed to comply with SAE J1455. The use of inductive devices such as relays and solenoids can result in the generation of voltage transients on the battery lines. Unsuppressed voltage transients can exceed SAE J1455 specifications and degrade control system performance. Some specific devices that should use transient suppression are fan clutch solenoids, A/C clutch solenoids, and all relays. This is not an all-inclusive list. The OEM should specify relays and solenoids with built-in voltage transient suppression on the vehicle where possible. The following illustration provides several possible suppression techniques to minimize the generation of voltage transients from relays and solenoids without built-in voltage transient suppression. These include, but are not limited to, installing a properly sized diode or resistor in parallel with solenoid and relay coils. Inductive devices should be located to maximize the distance from control system components. OEM installed wiring harnesses should be routed to maximize the distance from the control system wiring harness to avoid inductive coupling of noise transients.

4.6.1 EMI/RFI Testing

Caterpillar EMI/RFI testing on C7 and C9 engines is performed at both the component and system level. Component level testing is performed in a TEM cell and screen room. This radiated susceptibility testing is performed using the substitution method. In-vehicle radiated susceptibility testing is also performed. 4.7 ECM Positive Battery Connections The positive battery connection to the C7 or C9 ECM must be made through a dedicated and unswitched circuit of 4 individual #14 AWG wires capable of a continuous duty load of 30 Amperes at 9 volts DC. Recommended fusing is 10 Amperes for each wire for a total of 40 amperes. The four required unswitched positive battery connections are terminals 48, 52, 53 and 55. Caterpillar prefers the circuit protection be located in the cab if possible. On vehicle documentation for the circuit protection should be provided for none cab locations. In the event of a charging system failure, the engine will operate with a supplied voltage of 9 Volts DC. At this voltage level the engine will draw up to 30 amperes. Fusing the unswitched battery wiring with less than the stated fusing recommendation of 40 Amperes can result in blown fuses and an unexpected engine shutdown due to a failed vehicle charging system. In addition to suppressing inductive loads, powering the ECM on a dedicated fused circuit will reduce the possibility of degraded control system performance due to voltage transients. No additional loads should be connected between the ECM and ECM circuit protection. The ECM monitors the battery supply voltage and will trigger a diagnostic code if this voltage drops below and then returns above 6 Volts DC. 4.8 Voltage Requirements and Considerations The control system has been designed to operate on 12 Volt or 24 Volt electrical systems. The control system is protected against jump start conditions and short circuits to positive battery and negative battery. Minimum voltage requirements and maximum current draw for the C7 and C9 control system are as follows: Condition Normal Operation Engine Cranking Ignition Key On, Engine Off ** Electrical Charging System Failure Minimum Voltage 11.0 VDC 6.0 VDC 9.0 VDC 9.0 VDC Maximum Current Draw 22.0 Amperes 16 Amperes 20 Amperes 30 Amperes
**This condition includes the Inlet Air Heater Relay and HEUI injector solenoid cycling during cold weather conditions. Minimum voltages are specified at the OEM connector (P1 terminals 48, 52, 53, 55 referenced to P1 terminals 63, 65, 67, 69). 4.9 ECM Current Draw with Ignition Key Off The ECM draws less than 20 mA while the Ignition Key Switch is in the OFF position. 4.10 Welding on a Vehicle Equipped with a C7 or C9 Engine Before welding on a vehicle equipped with an electronic engine, the following precautions should be observed. 1. Turn the engine OFF. Place the ignition key switch in the OFF position. 2. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery. If the vehicle is equipped with a battery disconnect switch, open the switch.
24
3. Clamp the ground cable of the welder to the component that will be welded. Place the clamp as close as possible to the weld. 4. Protect any wiring harnesses from welding debris and spatter. Use proper welding procedures in order to weld the materials. NOTICE DO NOT use electrical components in order to ground the welder. Do not use the ECM or sensors or any other electronic component in order to ground the welder. Clamp the ground cable for the welder to the component that will be welded. Place that clamp as close as possible to the weld. This will reduce the possibility of damage to the bearings of the drive train, hydraulic components, ground straps, and other components of the vehicle.

5.0 Connectors and Wiring Harness Requirements

5.1 ECM Connector Caterpillar does not recommend the use of non-conductive grease with the ECM connector.
5.1.1 70 Terminal ECM Connector Part Numbers

The ECM uses an integral rectangular 70 Terminal AMP connector to interface to the OEM vehicle wiring harness (AMP part number 776241-1, Caterpillar part number 160-7689). The ECM also uses a 70 Terminal AMP connector to interface to the engine electronics (AMP part number 776241-2, Caterpillar part number 160-7690).
5.1.2 ECM 70 Terminal Connector Allen Screw Torque

ECM Connector Screw torque should be 6 Nm 1 Nm (4.4 lb.- ft. 0.7 lb.- ft., 53 lb. - in. 8.9 lb. - in.). 5.2 ECM Connector Wire Gauge Size The battery positive and negative connections must be made with #14 AWG SAE J1128 type GXL wire for the AMP 776093-1 stamped and formed terminal or the Deutsch 0462-209-1631 solid terminal. All other connections may be #16 SAE J1128 type SXL or GXL or #18 AWG SAE J1128 type SXL (or equivalent wire).
5.2.1 ECM 70 Terminal Connector Wire Insulation and Size Range

Insulation material is cross linked polyethylene. Outside diameter insulation range is 2.26 to 3.33 mm (0.089 to 0.131 in.). The following table provides insulation diameter range for each gauge and wire type. ECM Connector Wire Insulation and Gauge Size Wire Type Wire Gauge 14 GXL 16 18 SXL 16 18 Insulation Diameter 0.114 - 0.125 0.098 - 0.112 0.089 - 0.098 0.116 - 0.131 0.103 - 0.118
5.3 ECM Connector Terminals and Sealing Plugs The OEM connector socket terminals must be compatible with the wire size used. All unused connector socket slots must be filled with plugs to insure connector sealing. Note: Do not use non-conductive grease to seal unused terminal cavities.

5.3.2 ECM Connector Terminal Installation Guidelines

Two options are available for AMP terminals. It is critical the harness supplier use the correct crimp tools and tool calibration/setup procedures, when selecting AMP and Deutsch connector terminals. The following tables indicate proper crimp tooling, go-no-go criteria, and crimp dimensions for each contact- wire combination. *AMP 776093-1 Stamped & Formed Socket with #16 and #18 AWG SXL Wire or with #14, #16 or #18 AWG GXL Wire (Caterpillar P/N 126-1766) Wire Type GXL Wire Gauge 14 16 18 SXL 16 18 Crimp Height (+/- 0.002 In) 0.064 0.059 0.054 0.054 0.059 Crimp Width (in) 0.100 0.100 0.100 0.100 0.100

5.3.3 ECM 70 Terminal Connector Sealing Plugs

Two options are available for plugging unused connector cavities. Either the Deutsch 114017 (Caterpillar part number 8T-8737) or PEI Genesis 225-0093-000 (Caterpillar part number 9G-3695) sealing plugs can be used. Correct installation of either of these cavity plugs is critical to maintain connector socket seal integrity. The plug cap is designed to rest against the seal, not inserted in the hole in the seal. Note: Do not use non-conductive grease to seal unused cavities.

5.4 Sealing Splices and Ring Terminals Caterpillar requires all ring terminals and splices connected to the Engine ECM be sealed using Raychem ES2000 or equivalent. This reduces moisture invasion under wire insulation.
29
5.5 OEM Harness Routing Routing of the harness should insure connector seals are not stressed because the harness curvature is too close to the connector. This applies to routing of OEM lines on or near the engine harness as well as the OEM ECM Connector. The following graphic illustrates the problem if the harness curvature is too close to the connector. When this occurs the connector seal is stretched away from the wire, providing an opening for moisture entry. The wire should exit perpendicular to the connector before curving as necessary for routing. The harness bundle should have a bend radius greater than twice the harness diameter. This routing practice will also ensure the harness is not pulled too tightly resulting in intermittent connections or broken harness wires. Caterpillar recommends the OEM harness supplier perform the harness to provide the correct bend radius, assuring connector sealing and preventing harness abrasion.

5.5.1 ECM Connector Endbell

An AMP 638092-1 (Caterpillar part number 126-1774) Connector Endbell is available to provide additional protection and controlled wire routing for the harness at the ECM.
5.5.2 Twisted Pair Wiring

Twisted pair wiring must be used for the SAE J1587 Data Link, and input or output with a differential signal such as the vehicle speed signal wires. There should be a minimum of one twist per inch within the harness. All twisted pair wires should not be twisted within an inch of the connector to avoid seal stress. The speedometer and tachometer outputs, and any other differential input or output circuit, should also use twisted pair wiring. SAE J1939 Data Link wiring should comply with SAE J1939/11 specifications.
31
6.0 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensors

The accelerator pedal position sensor converts the mechanical accelerator pedal position into an electrical signal for the ECM. Caterpillar requires one of the sensors described in this document for use with an accelerator pedal.
Figure 20 - 204-7949 or 204-7950 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor with Deutsch DT Connector
Figure 21 - 204-7951 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor with Packard Connector

The accelerator pedal position sensor is designed to comply with FMVSS124 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 124). The sensor also meets the SAE J1843 Recommended Practice. 204-7949, 204-7950, and the 204-7951sensors mount directly to the accelerator pedal. This eliminates the need for accelerator pedal linkages and OEM adjustments. These sensors are designed to operate from the ECM + 8V supply. The 204-7949 (32 inch [81 cm] harness with Deutsch connector), 204-7950 (6 inch [15 cm] harness with Deutsch connector), and the 204-7951 (6 inch [15 cm] harness with Packard connector) use the same sensor but have different connectors or pigtail lengths as described.
32
6.1 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Electrical Specifications The sensor output is a constant frequency signal whose pulse width (duty cycle) varies with accelerator pedal position. The Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal is expressed as a percentage (percent duty cycle) as shown in Figure 21.
25% Duty Cycle
75% Duty Cycle

Figure 22 - Example PWM Signals
6.2 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Duty Cycle The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APP Sensor) mounts directly to the pedal and should not be adjusted by the OEM. The OEM must insure that pedals supplied by the pedal manufacturer meet the following specification for sensor output duty cycle. Accelerator pedal position Low Idle High Idle The pedal assembly should also conform to SAE J1843. NOTE: The ECM automatically calibrates (auto-cal) new duty cycle values for the Low Idle and High Idle throttle positions each time the ECM is powered. The ECM initially assumes 22 percent duty cycle is low idle and 75 percent duty cycle is high idle. As a result, the Throttle Position Status may reach 100 percent well before the accelerator pedal is fully depressed. This is normal operation and will continue until the ECM learns the limits of the low and high idle stops. Following some cycling of the accelerator pedal from the low to the high idle positions, the ECM will adjust its calibration automatically, provided the high idle stop position is within the 75 to 90 percent duty cycle range, and the low idle is in the 10 to 22 percent duty cycle range. During normal operation it may initially require more accelerator pedal movement for the Throttle Position Status to increase above 3 percent (low idle) and the Throttle Position Status may reach the 100 percent (high idle) value prior to the limit of the high idle position. This is done to ensure the throttle reaches these two critical points for engine operation. As the ECM learns the physical limits, the range is expanded as long as it is within the values specified above. If the Duty Cycle value goes outside of the expected range, a diagnostic code will be activated. Duty Cycle 10% - 20% 75% - 90%

NOTE: There is no direct correlation between the Sensor Duty Cycle value and a Desired Engine RPM. For example, it is not possible to input a 50% duty cycle value and expect the engine to operate at 1800 rpm. This is due to the Auto-Cal function which constantly calibrates for the low and high idle stop positions. 6.3 ECM +8V Cab Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Supply This sensor supply is designed to provide power for connection to OEM installed Cab Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (+8V). No other vehicle components may be connected to this supply. 6.4 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Connections The 204-7949 accelerator pedal position sensor is designed to operate on 8 Volts DC supplied by the ECM. The ECM supplied +8V, AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common, and Accelerator Pedal Position wiring must be connected to the control system through an OEM harness. Current draw for the sensor is less than 40 mA. AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common must not be connected to the vehicle cab ground. Connecting AP Sensor/ Switch Sensor Common to the vehicle cab ground can degrade control system performance. AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common must be connected to the ECM at the OEM connector (P1 terminal-5) via a dedicated return line.

6.6 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor for Remote PTO Applications Caterpillar recommends the 161-8906 accelerator pedal position sensor for remote PTO applications. The sensor provides the same type of signal as the 204-7949, 204-7950, and the 204-7951 sensors, but requires battery voltage (12 or 24 volt systems) to operate. This Sensor must NOT be connected to the +8V supply intended for the Cab Sensor, nor can the Cab Sensor be connected to a +12 Volt supply.
Figure 25 - 161-8906 Accelerator Position Sensor with Deutsch HD Connector 6.6.1 PTO Accelerator Position Sensor Connector
The 161-8906 is supplied with a 3-terminal Deutsch HD plug connector (HD16-3-96S, Caterpillar P/N 8T-8731). The connecting harness will require a Deutsch HD receptacle connector (HD14-3-96P, Caterpillar P/N 8T-8732).
6.6.2 Mounting the Remote Accelerator Position Sensor

The 161-8906 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor can be attached to either an accelerator pedal assembly (contact the vehicle OEM for parts) or a Caterpillar 107-2281 PTO Accelerator Assembly. The PTO Accelerator Assembly does not include a handle. It may be used in applications where a mechanical linkage is required. The accelerator position sensor mounts directly to the PTO Accelerator Assembly and does not require additional sensor calibration.

(Handle Not Included)
Figure 26 6.6.3 Remote Accelerator Position Sensor Assemblies

Two Remote Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Assembly packages are available from Caterpillar that include the 161-8906 sensor and mounting hardware. The 134-0597 assembly provides the 161-8906 sensor mounted to a control arm lever. The 134-0670 assembly provides the 161-8906 sensor mounted to an adjustable dial mechanism, which can be automatically reset to the low idle position or locked into place at a specific position. NOTE: The Remote Throttle PTO Configuration requires the Remote Throttle to be returned to the Low Idle position upon engine start up, in order for Remote Throttle control to be provided. If the engine is started with the PTO Switch ON and the Remote Throttle at a position above Low Idle, the engine will be limited to Low Idle until the Throttle is cycled to the low idle position.

6.6.5 Remote Accelerator Pedal Sensor Input Electrical Specifications

All signal requirements are identical to those outlined for 204-7949 except the 161-8906 sensor requires connection to battery voltage (12 VDC or 24 VDC) instead of the ECM supplied 8 VDC. 6.6.6 Remote Accelerator Pedal Sensor Common Connections Three different Sensor Common terminals can be used (J1/P1: 3, 5 or 18) to ground the Remote Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor to the ECM. However, Caterpillar recommends that Input J1/P1: 3 remain open for aftermarket/body builder installation.

7.0 Vehicle Speed Input Circuit

Vehicle speed information is a requirement for many features. These would include: a) Cruise Control b) PTO Control with Vehicle Speed Limit kickout c) Idle Control with Vehicle Speed Limit kickout d) Vehicle Speed Limiting e) Vehicle Speed Limit Protection f) Upshift Engine Speed Control g) Progressive Shifting h) Idle Shutdown Timer i) Inlet Air Heater j) ECM Controlled Speedometer k) Trip Recorder Functions l) Secure Idle Theft Deterrent If the application does not require any vehicle speed related features, the vehicle speed circuit may not be required. If the Vehicle Speed Input is not used, the VSL Protection Parameter should be programmed to 2640 rpm to prevent any Vehicle Speed Faults from occurring during engine operation. 7.1 General Vehicle Speed Source Requirements for Passive Speed Sensor Input Caterpillar recommends using single coil passive magnetic speed sensors for the vehicle speed sensor detecting speed via a transmission chopper wheel. The sensor should connect directly to the ECM using twisted pair wiring. The vehicle speed sensor must detect vehicle speed directly from the transmission output shaft. The source should be a rigid chopper wheel immune to noise inducing vibration. Caterpillar does not recommend use of less rigid tone wheel rings using magnetic disks to provide the change in magnetic flux for the vehicle speed source. This arrangement is prone to vibration induced electrical noise. The sensor must not be detecting vehicle speed through a system that uses a cable linkage such as a mechanical speedometer drive to the transmission output shaft. The cable will tend to wind up, causing opposing ends to deviate erratically from each other. This twisting results in erratic fluctuations in the vehicle speed signal, causing cruise control/PTO and Vehicle Speed Limit malfunctions. Caterpillar will accept a vehicle speed from the SAE J1939 Data Link. Caterpillar will not accept vehicle speed from the SAE J1587 Data Link for control system purposes. Because vehicle speed is critical to cruise control operation, any unnecessary and erratic signal delays are unacceptable, as well as the reduced accuracy associated with SAE J1587 vehicle speed sources. The signal frequency from the vehicle speed source should be between 0 and 5.3 kHz. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Passive Vehicle Speed Sensor, or Electronic Speed Source. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Vehicle Speed Calibration parameter must be programmed to correct Pulses Per Mile setting. 2) Vehicle Speed Input parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 32 & 33 (Default) hardwired sensor option.
38
7.2 Passive Magnetic Vehicle Speed Sensor Electrical Requirements The passive vehicle speed sensor must be a magnetic sensor with the sensor output signal resulting from variation in magnetic flux. Output voltage from the sensor at the ECM (at connector P1 terminals 32 and 33) should not be less than 0.70 Volts peak to peak (referenced to the ECM connector battery terminals) when vehicle speed is greater than 2 mph. The ECM Vehicle Speed Input can withstand up to a 100 Volt peak-to-peak input signal. Twisted pair wiring should be used to connect the vehicle speed sensor to the ECM. Caterpillar recommends a minimum of one twist per inch. 7.3 Passive Magnetic Vehicle Speed Circuit Options

7.4 Dual Coil Speed Sensor Dual coil magnetic speed sensors are not recommended because of the increased risk of electrical noise coupling into the engine control vehicle speed circuit. Ground noise from the circuit connected to the speedometer ground will be coupled into the vehicle speed circuit of the engine control degrading system performance. 7.5 Automatic Transmissions with Electronic Vehicle Speed Source Some electronically controlled transmissions do not have a passive magnetic vehicle speed signal available. For these transmissions follow guidelines indicated below. When a single ended signal is used, a signal with amplitude greater than 4.0 volts is required for the ECM vehicle speed input. NOTE: Proper grounding is required to ensure the ECM Vehicle Speed Input Signal is of the same ground potential as the ECM ground reference. Improper grounding may result in lost or intermittent vehicle speed signals.

7.6 J1939 Transmission Output Shaft Speed Based Vehicle Speed Source The ECM can be configured to receive Vehicle Speed Information from an Electronic Transmission Control Unit via the J1939 data link. The Transmission must be capable of supporting the J1939 ETC1 Broadcast Message (PGN 61,442 Bytes 2&3), which provides transmission output shaft speed. The OEM is responsible for determining if the transmission is capable of supporting the required message protocol. This feature also requires the necessary J1939 data link hardware to be installed in chassis. When configured for the J1939 option, the ECM Vehicle Speed Input Circuit (terminals 32 & 33) will be ignored. The ECM uses the Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) parameter value to calculate vehicle speed, based on the programmed value and the output shaft speed (received over the J1939 data link). The Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) setting is based on Output Shaft revolutions per mile. The OEM is responsible for determining the specific value for any given chassis. There are several methods to arrive at this value: Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) = Transmission Output Shaft revolutions per mile Transmission Speed Sensor pulse per mile Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) = Number of Teeth on Output Shaft Chopper Wheel Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) = (Tire revolutions per mile) x (Axle Ratio) OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Transmission ECU capable of supporting required J1939 message protocol. 2) J1939 Vehicle Data link. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans) parameter must be programmed for correct Trans Output Shaft revs per mile. 2) Vehicle Speed Input parameter must be programmed to J1939-Trans option. 7.7 J1939 ABS Wheel Speed Based Vehicle Speed Source The ECM can be configured to receive Vehicle Speed Information from an Antilock Brake System (ABS) via the J1939 data link. The ABS must be capable of supporting the J1939 High Resolution Wheel Speed Broadcast Message (PGN 65,134 Byte 5-8), which provides wheel speed from the two rear wheels. The OEM is responsible for determining if the ABS is capable of supporting the required message protocol. This feature also requires the necessary J1939 data link hardware to be installed in the chassis. The ABS will broadcast the ASSUMED tire revolutions per mile. If this value is the ACTUAL tire revolution per mile, the calibration value will be one (1.0) If the ASSUMED tire revolutions per mile is not the same as the ACTUAL tire revolutions per mile, then the cal factor can be calculated in the following manner. ABS Assumed tire revolutions per mile = 500 Actual Tire revolutions per mile = 400 Vehicle Speed Cal = 400/500 = 0.800 OEM provided and installed components required: 1) ABS capable of supporting required J1939 message protocol. 2) J1939 Vehicle Data link. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-ABS) parameter must be programmed for correct Tire revs per mile. 2) Vehicle Speed Input parameter must be programmed to the J1939-ABS option.

8.0 ECM Speedometer and Tachometer Outputs

8.1 Speedometer And Tachometer The ECM provides complementary 9 V speedometer and tachometer signals. The Tachometer Output can be customer programmed to provide an output between 12.0 to 500.0 pulses per revolution. The Speedometer Output provides a fixed 30,000 pulse per mile signal when the Truck Manufacturer parameter is programmed to Other, and a fixed 4,000 pulse per mile signal when programmed to the GM setting. The ECM receives the vehicle speed signal from an OEM installed sensor or electronic vehicle speed source, and scales the signal for the speedometer output. The ECM can also receive information over the J1939 data link from a transmission ECU broadcast, in order to calculate vehicle speed for the speedometer output. A speedometer may also be driven from the SAE J1587 Data Link message broadcast by the ECM, if the speedometer is capable of processing the information. The tachometer does not require an external sensor. The ECM determines engine speed from the Speed/Timing Sensor signals. A tachometer may also be driven from the SAE J1587 Data Link if the gauge is capable. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Vehicle speed source (for speedometer output only). Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Vehicle Speed Calibration (for speedometer output only). 2) Tachometer Calibration (default is 134.0).

The optional speedometer driver provides a signal from the ECM (OEM Connector P1, terminals 36 and 37), as does the tachometer driver (Connector P1 terminals 38 and 39). The signals are zero-crossing square waves with an amplitude (unloaded) of 9 Volts. The amplitude of the signals will be 5 Volts or greater when the speedometer load current is less than 4 mA. The output at terminal 36 (Terminal 38 for the tachometer) is the complement of terminal-37 (Terminal-39 for the tachometer) for those speedometers or tachometers requiring two signal lines. Connect either one of the two output lines from the ECM for speedometers or tachometers with a single input terminal. Leave the remaining line unconnected. When the control senses zero vehicle or engine speed, the driver signals will provide the following output voltages (unloaded). 42 Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____

The output signal for the speedometer is 30,000 pulses per mile, and for the tachometer the signal is programmable from 2.0 500.0 ppr (pulses per revolution, selectable in 0.1 increments through a Customer Parameter). Note that Caterpillar still provides a threaded hole in the flywheel housing for a magnetic engine speed sensor. Caterpillar requires twisted pair wiring if both signal connections from the ECM to the speedometer or tachometer are made. This is to prevent radiated electrical noise problems. Cab grounding of the speedometer is acceptable. 8.2 Connection Of Devices Other Than A Speedometer/Tachometer Do not connect these drivers to more than a single speedometer and tachometer. For questions regarding simultaneous connection, or connection of additional devices to these drivers contact Caterpillar. Caterpillar requests device specifications, a sample of the intended additional device, a connection diagram for vehicle installation, and sufficient lead time to evaluate this request. 8.3 Speedometer and Tachometer Output Accuracy
8.3.1 Speedometer Signal Accuracy

The engine control processes the vehicle speed input signal using the pulses per mile as determined by the customer programmable Vehicle Speed Calibration parameter. It is then scaled for the speedometer driver at 30,000 pulses per mile. The most likely source of error for the output signal is incorrectly programming the ECM or speedometer pulses per mile, and driveline variations such as tire wear. There are five sources of signal processing error of the vehicle speed by the ECM: 1) ECM input resolution is 2 sec. 2) Vehicle Speeds less than 1.5 miles per hour are ignored. 3) Rounding error due to division (scaling from pulses-in to pulses-out per mile). 4) ECM output resolution is 2 sec. 5) ECM sampling of the vehicle speed occurs every 30 mS.
8.3.2 Tachometer Signal Accuracy

The tachometer driver accuracy is 5 rpm.

9.0 Lamp Outputs

The ECM provides four lamp outputs that can be used in a variety of ways depending upon Customer Parameter programming. The Check Engine Lamp is the only required lamp. The Check Engine Lamp is a yellow lamp that indicates an active diagnostic code or alerts the driver to impending idle/PTO shutdown. An optional Warning Lamp is required for the Engine Monitoring feature. The Warning Lamp indicates an active problem with one of the monitored conditions such as high coolant temperature. A flashing Warning Lamp indicates the engine is derating power. For Other truck Manufacturers Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter provides the option of using a single Warning Lamp for all monitored conditions, or discrete lamps for each monitored condition. If the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Warning Lamp, then J1/P1 terminal-29 is used for connection of a single Warning Lamp. If the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1, then J1/P1 terminal-29 is used to connect a Low Oil Pressure Warning Lamp and J1/P1 terminal-31 is used to connect a High Coolant Temperature Lamp. If an optional Coolant Level Sensor is also installed (Coolant Level Sensor parameter programmed to 4-Pin or 2-Wire Float Sensor) then J1/P1 terminal-30 is used to connect a Low Coolant Level Lamp. For GM trucks, the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is limited to a High Coolant Temp option. Choosing this option changes J1/P1: 29 to a High Coolant Temperature Lamp. The other lamp drivers are not affected by choosing this option. If a Coolant Level Sensor is not installed (Coolant Level Sensor parameter programmed to No) then J1/P1 terminal-30 will be available for other functions including PTO Switch On Lamp or Change Oil Lamp. 9.1 Electrical Specifications Electrical characteristics of the Lamp Driver ECM outputs are as follows: Maximum Current: 0.30 Amperes Maximum Leakage Current in OFF State: 1mA These circuits are low side driversthe ECM provides a path to ground to activate the load. Caterpillar does not request dedicated circuit protection for this circuit. The engine control has not implemented diagnostic codes for these circuits.

Wiring Diagram 7 - Lamp Driver Output Wiring Diagram 9.2 Lamp Test On power up (key ON, engine OFF), the Check Engine Lamp will come ON for five seconds and turn off indicating the lamp circuit is functional. When the engine is first started, the Check Engine Lamp (terminal 28) and the Warning Lamp (terminal 29) will be turned On for 2 seconds indicating that both lamp circuits are functional. 9.3 Check Engine Lamp Operation An OEM installed Check Engine Lamp (hardwired, Not J1939 driven) is required to indicate a control system malfunction (diagnostic condition) to the driver, for diagnosing control system component failures, and for indicating that the Idle Shutdown Timer is in the Driver Alert phase, indicating a pending engine shutdown when the timer expires. When a diagnostic code alert is active the Check Engine Lamp will flash ON and OFF. On power up (key ON, engine OFF), the Check Engine Lamp will come ON for five seconds and turn off indicating the lamp circuit is functional. Any time there is an Active diagnostic code the lamp will flash ON five seconds, blink off, flash ON five seconds, blink off, etc.
9.3.1 Viewing Diagnostic Flash Codes

Caterpillars proprietary two-digit diagnostic flash codes can be prompted from the Check Engine Lamp. Active or logged codes (occurring since ECM power up) may be determined from the Check Engine Lamp as follows:

Figure 30 - Viewing Diagnostic Flash Codes

Note: It is suggested the Diagnostic Flash Codes only be used to indicate the nature of a diagnostic code occurrence, not to perform detailed troubleshooting. Troubleshooting should be performed using SAE J1587 PID/FMI Diagnostic Codes obtained via an electronic service tool or digital dash display.
9.3.2 Viewing Diagnostic Flash Codes using Diagnostic Enable Input

The diagnostic flash codes can be prompted using the Diagnostic Enable input. To initiate the flash codes, depress the momentary Diagnostic Enable switch until the Check Engine Lamp begins to flash. The codes should flash out as indicated above. 9.4 Warning Lamp Operation Engine Monitoring requires additional OEM installed warning lamp or lamps to alert the driver to an engine problem detected by the ECM. The Warning Lamp also alerts the driver to the level of action the ECM is taking to respond to the condition. The lamp is ON continuously while the engine is in the warning mode. Warning mode indicates the ECM has detected a problem, but the ECM is not altering engine performance to force driver action. The Warning Lamp flashes when in the derate mode, indicating the ECM has begun to force driver action and is reducing available horsepower and the maximum vehicle speed. During warning and derate the Check Engine Lamp will flash because of the active diagnostic code. The Warning Lamp will come on for two seconds following engine start-up to check the lamp and circuit function.
9.4.1 Warning Lamp Output used for High Coolant Temperature Shutdown Signal
For GM 530/540 engines, the Warning Lamp output can be used as a dedicated High Coolant Lamp. The Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter may be programmed to Warning Lamp or to High Coolant Warning Lamp. When programmed to Warning Lamp, the output operates as already described. When programmed to High Coolant temperature Warning Lamp, the output at J1/P1: 29 will be turned On in conjunction when the upper coolant temperature limit is exceeded. This feature option allows for the engine coolant temperature diagnostic to be tied into the chassis system for an engine protection shutdown. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter programmed to High Coolant Warning Lamp. 9.5 Low Oil Pressure Lamp This lamp will be available if the Engine Warning Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1. A lamp connected to J1/P1:29 will turn On when the diagnostic code for Low Oil Pressure or Very Low Oil Pressure is active. This feature is not available for GM trucks. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Low Oil Pressure Lamp. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter programmed to Option 1. 9.6 Low Coolant Level Lamp With the Coolant Level Parameter programmed to other than No, a coolant level sensor installed and the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter programmed to Option 1, J1/P1:30 is available for a Low Coolant Level Lamp. This lamp will turn on when the active diagnostic codes for Low or Very Low Coolant Level are active. This feature is not available for GM trucks. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Low Coolant Level Lamp. 2) Coolant Level Sensor

Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter programmed to Option 1. 2) Coolant Level Sensor programmed to 4-Pin or 2-Wire Float 9.7 PTO Switch ON Lamp If the PTO Switch On Lamp parameter is programmed to J1/P1: 30 (default), the ECM will turn Output #1 ON when the PTO On/Off Switch circuit (Input #1) is ON. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) PTO Configuration programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches or Remote Throttle. 2) PTO Switch On Lamp programmed to J1/P1: 30 NOTE: This parameter is unavailable if Change Oil Lamp is programmed to this terminal. This feature will not be available if the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1 and the Coolant Level Sensor is programmed to other than No. 9.8 Change Oil Lamp If the Change Oil Lamp parameter is programmed to J1/P1: 30, the ECM will turn Output #1 ON when the oil change interval exceeds the interval set in the PM1 parameter. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Maintenance parameters; Maintenance Indicator Mode, PM1 Interval and Engine Oil Capacity 2) Change Oil Lamp programmed to J1/P1:30 NOTE: This parameter is unavailable if PTO Switch On Lamp is programmed to this terminal. This feature will not be available if the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1 and the Coolant Level Sensor is programmed to other than No. 9.9 Fast Idle Enabled Lamp The Fast Idle Enabled Lamp parameter may be programmed to J1/P1:31 (Default), J1/P1:21 or None. When programmed to J1/P1:31 the ECM will turn 99Output #9 (Terminal 31) ON when Fast Idle is active. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Fast Idle Lamp. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Fast Idle Enabled Lamp parameter is programmed to J1/P1:31(default) or J1/P1:21. 2) Engine Monitoring Lamps programmed to Warning NOTE: The Fast Idle Enabled Lamp is not available for some GM configurations. This feature is not available if the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1. 9.10 Wait To Start Lamp The Wait To Start Lamp parameter may be programmed to J1/P1: 31, J1939 or None (default). The ECM will enable J1/P1: 31 (or J1939 message) when the Inlet Air Heater is operating and the engine is not running. This function is different from the engine harness connection for the Inlet Air Heater Lamp that will turn On whenever the Inlet Air Heater is operating. The Wait to Start Lamp is not available for all GM configurations. The hardwired connection (J1/P1: 31) is not available if the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1. The J1939 option for the Wait to Start Lamp is available regardless of the Warning Lamp programming for Non-GM trucks.

10.0 OEM Installed Sensors

10.1 Coolant Level Sensors The OEM is responsible for providing and installing the Coolant Level Sensor and a Warning Lamp. It is programmed through the Customer Programmable Parameter, Coolant Level Sensor. The default factory setting is No. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Warning Lamp. 2) Coolant Level Sensor. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Coolant Level Sensor parameter must be programmed to 4-pin, 2-Pin Switch (GM Only), or 2-Wire Float Sensor. 2) Engine Monitoring must be programmed to Warning, Derate, or Shutdown. 10.2 Selecting a Sensor Three types of coolant level sensors are supported. These include a four pin coolant level sensor, 2 Wire Float Sensor (a resistive ladder type sensor), or the 2- wire switch (used ONLY in General Motors (C7) applications). Each sensor operates as a coolant loss sensor. If a sensor is installed the Coolant Level Sensor parameter must be programmed to 4-Pin, 2-Wire Float Sensor or 2-Pin Switch. 10.3 Coolant Level Sensor Environmental Compatibility The OEM should determine worst case coolant type, mechanical, electrical, and electromagnetic field environments for the coolant level sensor and verify the coolant level sensor will function properly and reliably under those worst case conditions. Specifically, the OEM must verify that the sensor is compatible with Extended Life Coolants. NOTE: If the Coolant Level Sensing is disabled through the Customer Programmable option, it is not necessary to jumper any connector terminals on the OEM connector. The ECM will ignore the coolant level inputs. The vehicle harness for the Coolant Level Sensor should not be connected to the ECM when a sensor is not installed. 10.4 Coolant Level Sensor Mounting Guidelines (4-Pin) To insure proper operation of the 4 pin coolant level sensor, the following mounting guidelines should be followed: A. The sensor is supplied with thread sealant applied to the threads. No other tape or sealant should be applied when mounting. B. For the liquid present signal, the sensor must be mounted in a position completely immersing the sensing tube and mounting thread. C. For the liquid absent signal, the sensor must be mounted in a position with no fluid contacting the entire sensing tube and mounting thread. D. The output signal is indeterminate when only a portion of the sensing tube is immersed in fluid. E. The sensor should be mounted low enough in the tank to operate correctly under all slosh, tilt, and roll conditions. F. Preferred sensor mounting is horizontal.

10.5.3 Coolant Level Sensor Outputs

(All voltages are DC and referenced to AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common at the ECM Connector J1/P1). I. Coolant Level Low (J1/P1:54) A. Fluid Present: Output voltage = 0.5V MAXIMUM when sinking 10 mA or less. B. Fluid Absent: Output voltage = 4.1V MINIMUM when sourcing 1 mA or less. (The outputs must be able to tolerate a 20 k or greater resistance pulled up to 13V). II. Coolant Level Normal (J1/P1:49) A. Fluid Present: Output voltage = 4.1V MINIMUM when sourcing 1 mA or less. (The outputs must be able to tolerate a 20 kW or greater resistance pulled up to 13V). B. Fluid Absent: Output voltage = 0.5V MAXIMUM when sinking 10 mA or less.
10.5.4 Coolant Level Sensor Response Time

Sensor outputs must change states in less than 2 seconds when subjected to an immersion-removal transition. Cool Level Low must change states within 1.0 millisecond of a Cool Level Normal state change.
10.5.5 Coolant Level Sensor Diagnostic

Coolant level faults, 111-01 for Low & 111-11 for Very Low will cause the Check Engine Lamp to illuminate. Active faults will be broadcast over the J1587 and the J1939 data links. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and 0% for Very Low. If the ECM Coolant Level Circuit indicates the sensor outputs are at the same voltage for at least two seconds, a diagnostic code is triggered. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Coolant Level sensor meeting this specification. 2) Engine Monitoring Warning Lamp installed. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Coolant Level Sensor Customer Parameter programmed to 4 Pin. 10.6 2-Wire Float Coolant Level Sensor The 2-Wire Coolant Level Float Sensor option allows the OEM to install a resistor ladder float switch sensor to indicate coolant level. This sensor is powered with a 5-volt supply internal to the ECM. The expected voltage for a Normal coolant level is between 0.75 and 1.75 volts. The expected voltage for a Low coolant level is between 2.0 and 3.0 volts. The expected voltage for a Very Low or Critical level is between is between 3.25 and 4.25 volts. Hysteresis voltage ranges are included to allow for some slosh in the tank. Voltages levels changing from a defined range into a hysteresis zone will be considered to be in the previous range until the voltage level changes to outside of the hysteresis zone.

10.7 2-Wire Float Sensor Diagnostics Ignition Key On and the engine Not running: If the Coolant Level Sensor voltage is in the Normal range or either of the hysteresis zones bordering Normal Coolant Level range, the coolant level State will be Normal. A coolant level fault (111-01 for Low, 111-11 for Very Low, 111-03 for Open & 111-04 for Shorted) will occur if the voltage is not between 0.5 and 2.0 volts for at least 10 seconds. The Check Engine Lamp will illuminate and an active fault will be broadcast over the J1587 and the J1939 data links if there is a fault condition present. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and 0% for Very Low. For Low and Very Low coolant levels, an Event will be logged in the ECM. The logged Event will stay in the ECM nonvolatile memory and will be erased after 100 hours of engine operation if there are no other occurrences. Engine has been running for more than 4 seconds but less than 30 seconds: (Allows for initialization of the Coolant level) 1) If the Coolant Level Sensor voltage is in the Normal range or either of the hysteresis zones bordering Normal Coolant Level range, the coolant level State will be Normal. 2) If the Coolant Level Sensor voltage is in the Low range or in the hysteresis zone between Low and Very Low, the Coolant Level State will be Low (111-01). 3) If the Coolant Level Sensor voltage is in Very Low range or the Hysteresis Zone between Very Low and Sensor Open, the Coolant Level Sate will be Very Low (111-11). 4) If the sensor is shorted (111-04) or open (111-03), a fault code will be active. 5) A fault condition will cause the Check Engine Lamp will illuminate and an active fault will be broadcast over the J1587 and the J1939 data links. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and 0% for Very Low. Engine has been running for 30 seconds: (Allows for coolant levels to stabilize) 1) If the Coolant Level state was Normal and the voltage level is in the Normal Coolant Level range or either of the hysteresis zones bordering Normal Coolant Level range, the coolant level will be considered Normal. 2) If the Coolant Level State was Low and the voltage is in the Low Coolant Level range or either of the hysteresis zones around the Low range, the Coolant level will be considered Low (111-01). 3) If the Coolant Level State was Very Low and the voltage is in the Very Low Coolant Level range or either of the hysteresis zones around the Very Low Coolant range the Coolant Level State will be Very Low (111-11). 4) If the sensor is shorted (111-04) or open (111-03), a fault code will be active. 5) A fault condition will cause the Check Engine Lamp to illuminate and an active fault will be broadcast over the J1587 and the J1939 data links. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and 0% for Very Low. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Coolant Level sensor meeting this specification. 2) Engine Monitoring Warning Lamp installed.

11.0 Inlet Air Heater, Lamp and Relay Operation

The Inlet Air Heater (IAH) is used to improve cold start capability of the engine and to reduce white smoke. The ECM controls the Inlet Air Heater Grid and Inlet Air Heater Lamp through the Inlet Air Heater Relay. The heater and relay are installed on the engine at Caterpillar. The Inlet Air Heater operation is determined at three different times: Power Up/Preheat, Engine Cranking and Engine Running. This operation is based on measured engine temperatures and affected by operational conditions including vehicle speed and service brake pedal position. The Inlet Air Heater will be disabled (engine running or not) whenever the Service Brake is depressed and the vehicle speed is equal to or more than 5 mph (8 KPH). If there is an active vehicle speed sensor fault the ECM will assume that the vehicle speed is above 5 mph and will disable the Intake air Heater when the Service Brake is applied. 11.1 Inlet Air Heater Relay Electrical Specifications The OEM is responsible for connecting the contact side of the Inlet air heater relay to battery voltage. Recommended circuit protection for this connection is 130 Amps with a circuit load of 100 Amps continuous. The Inlet Air Heater Relay has a maximum On time of 7 minutes. Minimum required wire size is 4 AWG. 11.2 Inlet Air Heater Relay Connections The battery supply wire must be secured and not attached to a fuel line. Secure the wire with the clip before applying the proper torque of 9.0 Newton-Meters (NM) +/- 1.0 NM to the wire terminal at the terminal stud. Wire terminal nuts and locking washers are supplied with the relay. Caterpillar recommends the use of a breaking torque wrench such as the Mountz TLS-1360. CAUTION: Not meeting the specified torque limit may cause electrical arcing due to a mechanical failure of the relay stud or a loose connection.
Battery Cable

A boot must be installed on the Battery connection to the Inlet Air Heater Relay to help prevent electrical arcing. This boot must be made of heat resistant material that can meet the UL94V0 rating for flammability. Choose terminals made of tin plated brass with a hole that size is closest to the diameter of the stud (5/16 inch). The terminal hole should provide enough clearance to make assembly easy while maintaining contact. Caution must be taken to prevent the terminal from causing a short to chassis ground. Caterpillar recommends that the terminal ring connection to the battery supply wire should be made with a bare terminal and then insulated using a sealed heat shrink. 11.3 Inlet Air Heater Lamp An Inlet Air Heater Lamp may be installed to indicate when the Inlet Air Heater is operating. This lamp will normally be installed at the operator station. The Inlet Air Heater Lamp can be connected in parallel with the Caterpillar installed Inlet Air Heater Relay. The engine wiring harness provides a 116-6158 two terminal Packard (12052641) Metri-pack 150 Series Plug (P648) to connect the Inlet Air Heater Lamp. The mating half of the P648 plug is a Packard (12162000) Metri-pack 150 Series Receptacle (J648). A connector cap is installed on the plug to seal the connection until the Inlet Air Heater Lamp is connected. The ECM Inlet Air Heater driver provides a ground path when the heater should be ON (low side driver sinking 1.5 A maximum).

If a coolant temperature sensor open circuit or short circuit diagnostic code is active, the heater will come on if inlet manifold temperature < 50F (10C) If an inlet manifold air temp sensor open circuit or short circuit diagnostic code is active, the heater will come on if coolant temperature < 104F (40C) 3 With APR99 and newer Personality Modules, the Boost Pressure reading is used to determine Atmospheric Pressure. This indicates if the engine is operating above 5500 Ft (1678 M). If so, the temperature calculations used to determine inlet air heater operation are adjusted to compensate for the extreme altitude operation. NOTE: If the Service brake switch is open and Vehicle Speed is greater than or equal to 5 mph (or a vehicle speed diagnostic is present) the heater will be turned OFF. If the brake switch closes or speed drops below 5 mph, the heater will resume operation.

11.4 ECM Power Up and Preheat Cycle If the SUM of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature is less than 136F or 40C and the engine is being operated below 5500 feet (1678 meters) of elevation, the ECM will turn the Inlet Air Heater relay output ON for 30 seconds as a preheat cycle. If the engine is being operated at elevations higher than 5500 feet (1678 meters) the sum of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature must only be less than 160F or 53C in order to compensate for the extreme altitude operation. NOTE: DO NOT convert the sum of the temperatures!!! The temperatures MUST be converted before summing! The ECM adds Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature as measured in centigrade. In order to get the correct conversion of the summed value in Fahrenheit, each temperature must first be converted to Fahrenheit and then added together as follows: ([Coolant Temperature C] X 1.8 +32) + ([Inlet Manifold Air Temperature C] X 1.8 +32) = sum in Fahrenheit. The Heater and Heater Lamp will turn ON, and then turn OFF when the cycle is complete. If the operator attempts to start the engine before the 30 second preheat cycle ends, the ECM will continue to control the Heater during engine cranking. 11.5 Engine Cranking Cycle When the engine is cranking, the Heater will turn ON if the SUM of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature is less than 136F or 40C at elevations below 5500 feet (1678 meters), and stay ON while cranking. If the engine fails to start the Heater will activate for 30 seconds (preheat cycle is restarted). At elevations above 5500 feet (1678 meters) the SUM of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature must only be less than 160F or 53C in order to compensate for the extreme altitude operation. 11.6 Engine Running Cycle After the engine has started, the Inlet Air Heater operation is determined by the same combination of both the Inlet Manifold Air Temperature and Coolant Temperature. The Engine Running Cycle has two segments, a continuous mode followed by an On/Off cycling mode. The Continuous ON mode lasts for a maximum of seven minutes. The On/Off cycle mode can last for a maximum of 13 minutes. During the On/Off cycle mode, the Heater is cycled ON and OFF for ten seconds. The Inlet Air Heater will turn OFF anytime the SUM of the Inlet Manifold Air Temperature and Coolant Temperature exceeds 126F or 40C if the engine is being operated below 5500 feet (1678 meters) of elevation. If the engine is being operated at elevations higher than 5500 feet (1678 meters), the Heater will turn OFF anytime the SUM of the Inlet Manifold Air Temperature and Coolant Temperature exceeds 178F or 63C. 11.7 IAH and Active Engine Diagnostics Whenever there is an Active Open or Short Circuit Diagnostic Code for the Coolant Temperature Sensor, the Heater will activate if the Inlet Manifold Air Temperature is less than 50F (10C). For an Active Inlet Manifold Air Temperature Sensor Diagnostic, the Heater will activate if Coolant Temperature is less than 104F (40C). 2.8 IAH and Starting Aid Interaction At key switch On, the Inlet Air Heater will not be activated if the Starting Aid Output is programmed to Automatic and the inlet air temperature is below 0 Deg C. The Inlet Air Heater will not be activated if the Starting Aid circuit is activated. When the Starting Aid Output is programmed to Automatic, the Inlet Air Heater will not be activated until the engine is running and the starting Aid output has been turned off for 5 seconds.

12.0 Hard-wired Switch Inputs

The ECM has 18 switch inputs available for feature interaction. There are 15 Switch To Input Sensor Common inputs and three Switch To Battery Positive inputs. 12.1 Switch to Sensor Common Electrical Specifications Applied voltage to switches by the control will normally not exceed 11.5 Volts DC. Contact plating should not corrode or oxidize. Gold plated or silver alloy contacts are recommended. Normal current draw through the switches by the control will not exceed 6.5 mA. Contact chatter and momentary opening or closing should not exceed 100 milliseconds in duration. The switches should not open or close due to vibration or shock normally found in the application. ECM internal pull-ups force the respective input to 11.5 Volts DC when a switch contact is opened or the harness is open circuited. Closure of an OEM installed switch must short circuit the input to a dedicated Sensor Common connection of the ECM (J1/P1 terminal-5, terminal-3 or terminal-18). Voltage thresholds measured at ECM: Voltage-In-Low < 0.9 Volts DC With any switch contacts closed, ground potential differences, switch voltage drops, and wiring harness voltage drops must be such that a switch closure results in less than 0.9 Volts DC between the respective control inputs and Sensor Common terminal. Voltage-In-High > 4.0 Volts DC With the switch contacts open, ground potential differences, switch voltage drops, and wiring harness voltage drops must be such that a switch opening results in greater than 4.0 Volts DC between the control input and Sensor Common terminal. 12.2 Sensor Common Connections Three Sensor Common terminals are available to ground inputs connected to the ECM. All of the Switch To Sensor Common inputs must use one of the three terminals (J1/P1: 3, 5, or 18). Switch inputs must not use chassis ground. Switches must not be Case grounded.

Note: For switches with J1939 options, refer to the J1939 Based Switched Messages section for additional details.
12.3.1 Service Brake Pedal Position Switches/Function

The Service Brake Position Switch #1 is required for ALL applications. This is a normally closed switch and must be an open circuit when the service brake pedal is depressed. An Open circuit will deactivate or will not activate Cruise Control, Fast Idle (1 or 2), Extended Idle, or Cab Switches PTO. A change in state (depressing a released pedal, or releasing a depressed pedal) of the Service Brake, during Driver Alert, while the Idle Shutdown Timer is counting also overrides the Idle Shutdown Timer if the Customer Parameter Allow Idle Shutdown Override is programmed to Yes (default). Service Brake Position Switch #2 (switch to Battery Plus) may be required if needed to support the transmission style.
12.3.2 Clutch Pedal Position Switch Function

The clutch pedal position switch must be an open circuit when the clutch pedal is depressed. This switch is required on any application that uses a clutch and the Transmission Style must be programmed to Manual Option 1 or 2. An Open circuit will deactivate or will not activate Cruise Control, Fast Idle (1 or 2), Extended Idle, or Cab Switches PTO. Adjustment of the Clutch Pedal Position Switch is critical to proper system performance. A change in state (depressing a released pedal, or releasing a depressed pedal) of the Clutch, during Driver Alert, also overrides the Idle Shutdown Timer, if the ECM is programmed to allow Idle Shutdown Override.
61
12.3.2.1 Clutch Pedal Position Switch with Automatic Transmissions

The Clutch Pedal Position switch is required if the parameter Transmission Style is programmed to Manual Option 1, Manual Option 2 or Universal. If the transmission Style parameter is not programmed to one of these options, the clutch switch circuitry may be omitted. A jumper circuit from this input to Sensor Common is not required.
12.3.3 Diagnostic Enable

A Diagnostic Enable input is available to prompt the ECM for flashing Diagnostic Flash Codes via the hardwired Check Engine Lamp. The Diagnostic Enable parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 46 for this feature to function. A momentary normally open switch is required. The ECM will begin flashing and continue to flash out codes while this switch is closed.

12.3.4 Two Speed Axle Switch

Two Speed Axle Switch may be programmed to None (Default) or J1/P1: 6. When a two-speed axle is used Two Speed Axle Switch must be programmed to J1/P1: 6 (Input #6). A normally open switch is required. When a twospeed axle is used, the change in gear ratios from the high-speed range to the low speed range alters the calibration of the vehicle speed signal. With this system, the ECM will automatically adjust the vehicle speed calibration when the switch is ON. This will ensure an ECM driven speedometer and ECM stored information correctly reflect the actual vehicle speed. The Low Speed Range Axle Ratio and High Speed Range Axle Ratio must be programmed as well. When the switch is closed between the ECM terminals 16 and 5, the ECM will use the following equation to calculate the actual vehicle speed: High Speed Range Axle X calculated vehicle speed = actual vehicle speed Low Speed Range Axle Ratio Note: GM trucks use a normally closed switch for this input. Where the calculated vehicle speed is the vehicle speed calculated using the programmed vehicle speed calibration (pulse per mile). This adjusted vehicle speed will be used to determine idle, PTO, and Fast Idle Kickout speeds as programmed. The vehicle speed broadcast over the data links and the ECM speedometer output vehicle speed will reflect the adjustment. If Two Speed Axle Switch is not programmed to J1/P1: 6, the ECM does not use either axle ratio to determine the actual speed. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Switch to close when low speed axle ratio is used (switch to OPEN if GM truck). Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Two Speed Axle Switch programmed to J1/P1:6 when a two-speed axle is used (default is NONE). 2) High Speed Range Axle Ratio and Low Speed Range Axle Ratio must be programmed or the feature is disabled. 62 Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____

Several options are available to control engine rpm while in PTO. In order to operate in PTO Mode, a dedicated PTO ON/OFF switch is required. Three PTO modes are available. The Cruise Control Set/Resume switches can be used or dedicated PTO switch inputs can be programmed and installed to give a variety of controlled engine speeds. OEM provided and installed switches (required and/or optional): 1) PTO On/Off switch 2) Optional Switches 3) Transmission Neutral switch 4) Cruise Control Set/Resume 5) PTO Set/Resume 6) PTO Set Speed A 7) PTO Set Speed B 8) Torque Limit 9) Clutch Pedal Position Switch (for manual transmissions). 10) Service Brake Pedal Position 11) Ignore Brake/Clutch Customer Parameter programming required: 1) PTO Configuration must be programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches, or Remote Throttle. 2) Individual switch inputs as necessary.
12.3.6 Fast Idle Switch

A momentary Fast Idle switch can be used to elevate and maintain up to two programmed engine rpm settings. Pressing and releasing the switch once will cause the engine to ramp from Low idle to the programmed Fast Idle RPM #1 (1000 rpm default). Pressing and releasing the switch while at Fast Idle #1 will cause the engine to ramp to the programmed Fast Idle #2 at the programmed Idle/PTO Engine Speed Ramp Rate. If Fast Idle #2 is not programmed, the engine will return to low idle. Fast Idle will be deactivated (kicked out) if the Service Brake or Clutch is depressed. The transmission Neutral switch, when in Gear, will also cause the Fast Idle to deactivate.

12.3.7 Ignore Brake/Clutch Switch

The Ignore Brake/Clutch Switch is used to allow use of an engine set speed in mobile vehicle operations. When the Ignore Brake/Clutch parameter is programmed to J1/P1: 47 and the switch is closed, PTO, Extended Idle and Fast Idle features will ignore service brake and clutch switch inputs. If this switch is in the closed position when the ECM is powered up, this switch function is ignored until the switch is cycled Off and ON.
12.3.8 Shutdown Override Switch (Mass Transit only)

The transit industry calls for an engine shut down override switch to allow the operator to override a critical engine diagnostic induced engine shutdown. The purpose of the Shutdown Override Switch is to allow an operator to override the impending engine shutdown to allow the operator to move the vehicle to a more safe location. This feature is only available on C9 Mass Transit ratings. Shutdown Override Operation The Engine Monitoring System can be used to cause the engine to shut down when the engine has an active diagnostic code for Very Low Engine Oil Pressure, Very low Coolant Level or Very High Engine Coolant Temperature. When one of these Diagnostics is active, the Warning Lamp, or the dedicated lamps defined by the Warning Lamp option of Option 1, will start to flash. The flashing lamp indicates that the engine power is being derated and engine shutdown will occur within a few seconds. If the Shutdown Override Switch has been closed before the Shutdown sequence has ended, a Shutdown Timer will start to countdown from 30 seconds. If the Shutdown Override Switch is opened and closed again before the engine has turned the fuel injectors Off, the timer will reset for another 30 seconds. Once the timer has counted down to zero and the fuel injectors have been disabled, the engine will shut down regardless of the position of the Shutdown Override Switch. Initiating the Shutdown Override Timer will result in a Diagnostic Code being generated and logged into memory. A Diagnostic Snapshot will also be generated. The logged diagnostic code will require Caterpillar Factory Passwords to clear from the ECMs memory.

12.3.10 Exhaust Brake Switch

The Exhaust Brake switch is used to allow the operator to enable or disable the engines exhaust retarder. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Exhaust Brake Switch Customer Parameter programming required: 2) Exhaust Brake Switch programmed to J1/P1: 16 12.4 Switch-to-Battery Electrical Specifications Contact plating should not corrode or oxidize. Gold plated or silver alloy contacts are recommended. Normal current draw through the Input #12 and Input #13 by the control is 6.0 mA at 12 Volts DC. Normal current draw through the Ignition Key Switch by the control is 1.2 mA at 12 Volts DC. Contact chatter and momentary opening or closing should not exceed 100 milliseconds in duration. The switches should not open or close due to vibration or shock normally found in the application. Each of these ECM inputs is pulled to ground eliminating the need for external termination. Closure of an OEM installed switch must short circuit the input to the vehicle positive battery connection.
12.4.1 Voltage thresholds measured at ECM:

Switch Open < 0.9 Volts DC With the switch contacts open, ground potential differences, switch voltage drops, and wiring harness voltage drops, the ECM must detect less than 0.9 Volts DC between the control input and the ECM negative battery connection. Switch Closed > 9.0 Volts DC With the switch contacts closed, ground potential differences, switch voltage drops, and wiring harness voltage drops, the ECM must detect a switch closure resulting in greater than 9.0 Volts DC between the control input and the ECM negative battery connection.

12.4.3 Ignition Key Switch to Positive Battery

The Ignition Key Switch input is J1/P1: 70 and is not changeable. When the ECM detects the input is switched to vehicle battery (Ignition Key Switch ON), the ECM will be powered. The ECM will then control the injectors allowing the engine to start. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Switch to close when the ignition is ON.
12.4.4 Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #2 Function

Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #2 is required if the Transmission Style is programmed to Manual Option 2, Universal, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, Automatic Option 2, or Automatic Option 3. Input #13 is used as the Service Brake Position Switch #2 input. The Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #1 (switch to ground) must also be used. This switch must be a short circuit to +Battery when the service brake pedal is depressed. The control will deactivate Cruise Control, Cab Switches PTO, Fast Idle, or Extended Idle when the Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #2 is ON. The Brake and Clutch Pedal Position Switches do not affect remote PTO. A change in state (depressing a released pedal, or releasing a depressed pedal) of the Service Brake, during Driver Alert, while the Idle Shutdown Timer is counting can also override the Idle Shutdown Timer, if the ECM is programmed to allow Idle Shutdown Override.

12.4.5.1 Transmission Neutral Switch Status via J1939 Data Link

The ECM has the ability to receive Neutral Switch status information from a Transmission ECU capable of broadcasting the status via the J1939 data link. The J1939 option can be used to replace the hardwired switch input to the ECM. This option can only be used if the Transmission is capable of supporting the required J1939 message protocol, such as an Allison 2000 Series Transmission. The OEM is responsible for making this determination. The Transmission must support the J1939 PGN $F005 (ETC2 Byte 1 Selected Gear, Byte 4 Current Gear or Byte 7 Current Range) message to be compatible. If the message is not received, the ECM will assume the transmission to be In gear. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Electronically Controlled Transmission capable or supporting required J1939 message protocol. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Customer Parameter Transmission Style programmed to either AT/MT/HT Option 3, AT/MT/HT Option 4, Automatic Option 3, or Automatic Option 4. 1) Transmission Neutral Switch parameter programmed to J1939 option.
12.4.5.2 Ignoring the Transmission Neutral Switch input.

The neutral switch is not normally used with manual transmissions. The ECM can also be configured to ignore the neutral switch if an automatic transmission is used. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Transmission Style parameter programmed to Manual Option 1 or 2, AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, Automatic Option 1, or Automatic Option 2. 2) Transmission Neutral Switch parameter programmed to J1/P1:62 (default) hardwired option or None. NOTE: Programming the Neutral Switch to None and the Transmission Style to Automatic option 3 (or 4) or AT/ MT/HT Option 3 (or 4) will cause the ECM to assume that the transmission is IN GEAR.

13.0 Cruise Control

Cruise control operation is a standard feature and requires the following OEM installed switches: Cruise Control ON/OFF, Set/Resume, and Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #1. Depending on Transmission Style programming, additional switches may be required. These would include the Clutch Pedal Position, Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #2 and Neutral switches.

13.1.1 Cruise Control On/Off Switch

When the On/Off switch input is toggled to the ON position (switch contacts closed) Cruise Control or Extended Idle function is enabled.
68
13.1.2 Set/Resume Switch

The Set/Resume switch is normally a three-position switch biased to the Off position. The ECM inputs are Customer programmable determining the Accel/Decel function of the Set and the Resume input. The factory default is Set/Accel and Resume/Decel. The Set/Resume switch is normally a three-position switch biased to the off (center) position. The Customer Programmable parameter Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration is used to determine which switch contact is associated with accelerate and decelerate functions. The default is Set/Accelerate and Resume/Decelerate.
13.1.3 Switch Function/Interaction for Cruise Control

Cruise Control requires that the vehicle speed be within the programmed Low and High Cruise Set Speed Limits. The Cruise Control Set speed may only be established between these limits. The set speed is the vehicle speed that the engine will attempt to maintain while normal cruise control conditions are met. The switches used with the Service Brake, Clutch, Pause and transmission neutral can deactivate (kick out) Cruise Control. With the Cruise Control On/Off switch on, toggling (turning the switch On for less than 0ne second) the Set Switch or the Resume Switch will cause the Cruise Control Vehicle Set Speed to be equal to the present vehicle speed. This set speed will remain as the Cruise Control Vehicle Speed until a new set speed is established or the ignition switch is turned off. With a set speed established, the vehicle set speed may be bumped (increased or decreased) by toggling the Set or the Resume switches. A Bump means that the Set or Resume switch is closed for less than one second. The increase or decrease of the vehicle set speed will be one mph for every bump. With a set speed established, the vehicle speed may be ramped (increased or decreased) by holding either the Set or Resume switch closed for more than 1.5 seconds. The vehicle set speed will change by one mph/sec while the switch is closed. When the switch is released, the actual vehicle speed will become the new vehicle set speed. With a set speed established and Cruise Control actively maintaining vehicle speed, the cab throttle may be used to increase vehicle speed. To make this vehicle speed the new set speed, the Set switch must be closed for at least two and one half seconds to establish a new set speed. With a set speed established but Cruise Control has been disabled or kicked out the Resume Switch can be toggled to reactivate Cruise Control. This includes the Cruise On/Off switch as a reason for the kick out. Once reactivated, the existing set speed will be resumed and the engine will recover to the set speed. With a set speed established but Cruise Control has been disabled or kicked out the Set Switch can be toggled to increase (or decrease depending on the configuration of the Set/Accel Resume/Decel parameter) the current Cruise Control set speed. The speed that the vehicle is currently traveling will not be established as a new set speed until the Set Switch is held down for more than two and one half seconds.

14.0 Idle Functions

14.1 Smart Idle The Battery Monitor and Engine Control Voltage parameter is used to determine when the Battery Monitor and Engine Speed Control System will automatically elevate engine idle to the engine RPM specified in the Battery Monitor & Low Idle Engine Speed parameter in order to maintain ideal battery system voltage. This feature is used to promote additional battery life. The engine idle will only be increased if the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is out of gear and neither the clutch nor the brake pedal are depressed. If these conditions are not met, the engine idle will not be adjusted. This feature will not function when the engine is operating in dedicated PTO mode (PTO On/Off switch in the ON position). The recommended setting is 12.2 Volts for a 12 Volt system, and 24.5 Volts for a 24 Volt system. The engine will stay at this idle speed for 5 minutes (unless interrupted). At the end of 5 minutes the engine will return to low idle or a previously established elevated idle speed. If the battery voltage is still below the programmed trip point the engine will return to the programmed Smart Idle speed for another 5 minutes. NOTE: This feature requires the installation of a Neutral Switch (J1/P1: 62 or the SAE J1939 based input message) if the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4. 14.2 Extended Idle Cruise Control switch inputs can be used to control the engine idle speed in Extended Idle mode. Extended Idle is available if the engine is not in Cold Mode, Smart Idle (battery voltage induced) is not engaged, Fast Idle is not enabled, the PTO ON/OFF Switch is not ON, Service Brake or Clutch is not depressed, transmission is not in gear, Cruise Pause Switch is not On and the vehicle speed is not equal to or exceeding the programmable Idle Vehicle Speed Limit. Note: Some switch inputs are programming dependent. With conditions met for Extended idle, and the Cruise Control On/Off switch is in the ON position, the engine rpm may be bumped or ramped by using the Cruise Control Set/Resume switch inputs. The amount of engine rpm change for a bump is determined by the Idle/PTO RPM Bump Rate parameter. The Idle/PTO Bump RPM Rate is programmable from 5 to 1000 RPM (default is 20 RPM). The engine rpm ramp value is determined by the Idle/PTO Engine Speed Ramp Rate parameter. The Idle/PTO Engine Speed Ramp Rate parameter is programmable from 5 to 1000 RPM/sec (default is 50 RPM/sec). When the engine speed is bumped the engine will ramp to the new rpm at the programmed ramp rate. The Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration parameter programming will determine the direction of the engine rpm bump or ramp. When programmed to Set/Accel Resume /Decel, the engine rpm will increase with the Set switch and Decrease with the Resume Switch. When programmed to Set/Decel Resume /Accel, the engine rpm will decrease with the Set switch and increase with the Resume Switch. Pressing and then releasing the Set Switch or the Resume Switch will establish the current engine rpm as the idle set speed. The set rpm may be established at any engine speed from the programmed Low Idle to the programmed Idle RPM Limit. Once an idle speed has been set, the engine speed may be bumped or ramped using the Set/Resume switches. Pressing and holding the Set or Resume switch will establish the engines current rpm as the set rpm and then after 1 second the engine will ramp at the programmed rate in the direction of the programmed setting for Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration. The last idle set rpm will stay in the ECMs memory until the key switch has been turned Off. With a set idle rpm, pressing an holding the (Set or Resume) /Accel Switch for less than one second will cause the engine rpm to bump or increase by the programmed Idle/PTO Bump RPM value. This bump process can be repeated until the engine reaches the programmed Idle RPM Limit. With a set idle rpm, pressing an holding the (Set or Resume) /Decel Switch for less than one second will cause the engine rpm to bump or decrease by the programmed Idle/PTO Bump RPM value. This bump process can be repeated until the engine reaches the programmed Low Idle. With a set idle rpm, pressing and holding the Set or Resume switch for more than one second will cause the engine to ramp at the programmed rate in the direction of the programmed setting for Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration. The engine rpm will ramp as long as the switch is held or until the engine reaches the programmed
70
Idle RPM Limit or the programmed Low Idle. Releasing the Set or Resume switch while the engine rpm is ramping will establish the current engine rpm as the new set rpm. If the Extended Idle has been disabled or kicked out, the set rpm is still in memory. Once the condition for Kickout no longer exists, pressing and releasing the Resume Switch will cause the engine rpm to ramp to the set rpm.
14.2.1 Extended Idle kick outs

Extended Idle may be deactivated or kicked out by a variety of switch inputs and by exceeding the programmable vehicle speed limit. When Kicked Out, the set rpm remains in memory but the engine will return to the programmed low idle rpm. Pressing on the Service Brake or Clutch, shifting the transmission into gear, turning the PTO Switch On or by turning the Pause Switch On, can kick out Extended Idle. If the vehicle operation requires that the Service Brake and Clutch switches be used while the engine is in Elevated Idle mode, the Ignore Brake/Clutch switch input can be used. With this switch enabled, the Service Brake and Clutch may be used to control the vehicle speed while the Extended Idle is Active. In the following table, an L means the input can return the engine to low idle from a set speed, a A means the input can adjust engine rpm, and P means the input function is programmable to a limit.

15.0 J1939 Based Switch Messages

The Powertrain Data Link parameter must be programmed to J1939 before the ECM will respond to messages received from the J1939 data link. Individual switch input parameters must be programmed to receive messages from either the Cab Controller (source address 49, $31), the Body Controller (source address 33, $21) or the Instrument Cluster (source address 23, $17). All programmed switch inputs require that the status of the switch be broadcast as On or Off when the key switch is On. Not broadcasting a switch status message will result in a diagnostic code to be active and the Check Engine lamp will be enabled. 15.1 Cruise Switch Inputs

Cruise Switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 4, bits 4,3 is set to 01) The Cruise switch will allow enabling cruise control, if turned on and will deactivate (kickout) cruise control if switched off. The switch must be in the On position to activate cruise control.
15.1.2 Cruise Control Set Switch

Set Switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 5, bits 2,1 set to 01) As long as the Cruise switch is Off the Set switch has no functionality for the cruise feature. If the Cruise On/Off switch is on and all other conditions are met (Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause) an On/Off transition of the Set switch will activate cruise and set the cruise target speed to the actual vehicle speed. As long as Cruise stays active, any other On/Off, Off/On or hold transition of the Set switch will be ignored. The Set switch is only used to activate Cruise, set the current veh spd = cruise target speed and enable the Accel and Decel switch.
15.1.3 Cruise Control Resume Switch

Resume switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 5, bits 6,5 set to 01) As long as the Cruise switch is Off the Resume switch has no functionality for the cruise feature. If the Cruise On/Off switch is on and all other conditions are met (Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause) an On/Off transition of the Resume switch will activate cruise. If, since the last ECM power up, cruise control was never active and the Resume switch goes from On/Off, the cruise target speed will be set to the actual veh spd. But if Cruise was active before, the Cruise Target Speed will be set to the last Cruise Set Speed, which will be lost during an ECM power cycle. As long as Cruise stays active, any other On/Off, Off/On or hold transition of the resume switch will be ignored. The Resume switch is only used to activate Cruise, set the old set speed = cruise target speed, if not 0, and enable the Accel and Decel switch.
15.1.4 Cruise Control Accel Switch

Accel switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 5, bits 8,7 set to 01) As long as the Cruise switch is Off and cruise is not active (by Set or Resume), the Accel switch has no functionality for the cruise feature. If cruise is active (Cruise on, Set or Resume On/Off transition, all other conditions are met Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause), an Off/On transition of the Accel switch, which lasts longer (ON) than 1.26 seconds (Hold), will cause the cruise target speed to ramp UP, by a fixed ramp rate. When the Accel switch is released (On/Off) the cruise target speed will be set to the current veh spd. If the holding time after the Off/On transition is shorter than 1.26 seconds (Bump), then the cruise target speed will be INCREASED by 1 mph (1.6 km/h). The Resume or Set switch must be On to enable the Accel or Decel switch function. NOTE: The Accel switch is not dependent on the Cruise/Idle/PTO switch configuration parameter.
72
15.1.5 Cruise Control Decel Switch Decel switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 5, bits 4,3 set to 01) As long as the Cruise switch is Off and cruise is not active (by Set or Resume), the Decel switch has no functionality for the cruise feature. If Cruise is active (Cruise on, Set or Resume On/Off transition, all other conditions are met Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause), an Off/On transition of the Decel switch, which lasts longer (ON) than 1.26 seconds (Hold) will cause the cruise target speed to ramp DOWN, by a fixed ramp rate. When the Decel switch is released (On/Off) the cruise target speed will be set to the current veh spd. If the holding time after the Off/On transition is shorter than 1 second (Bump), then the cruise target speed will be DECREASED by 1 mph (1.6 km/h). The Resume or Set switch must be On to enable the Accel or Decel switch function. NOTE: The Decel switch is not dependent on the Cruise/Idle/PTO switch configuration parameter. Priority Set has a higher priority than Resume if both switch inputs are received at the same time. Accel has a higher priority than Decel if both switch inputs are received at the same time. 15.1.6 Cruise Pause Switch PGN (65265 ($FEF1) Byte 1, bits 6,5 set to 01) (J1939 input only) The Cruise Pause switch will disable (kick out) cruise control (if active) and will prevent Cruise from being engaged if the switch is turned. The switch is independent from the Ignore Brake/Clutch switch status and it will not affect any timer functionality (Idle Shutdown and PTO Shutdown). This switch will act like the service brake or clutch switches can cause PTO or Extended Idle to kick out. If in the ON position, this switch will prevent the engine from entering into PTO mode or Extended Idle. 15.2 Service Brake Switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 4 Bits 6,5) The Service Brake Switch input will respond to an Off to On transition and the ECM will respond the same as to hardwired switch inputs. This includes all features that respond to the Service Brake Switch #1 input (Cruise Control, Extended Idle, PTO, exhaust brake, etc.). 15.3 Clutch Switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 4 Bits 8,7) The Clutch switch input will respond to an OFF to ON transition and the ECM will respond the same as to hardwired switch inputs. This includes all functions that respond to the Clutch Switch input (Cruise Control, Extended Idle, PTO, exhaust brake, etc.). 15.4 Fan Override Switch (PGN 65213 ($E000) Byte 1 Bits 8-1) The Fan Override Switch may be programmed to None (Default), J1939 Cab Controller, J1939 Body Controller or J1939 Instrument Cluster. When the received message => 95.2% (switch ON), the ECM will turn J1/P1: 11 OFF which will turn the fan ON. When the received message <= 94.8%, the ECM will control the fan according to engine conditions. The ECM will also support the Fan Override Switch message when broadcast from the transmission. The transmission may require that the fan be engaged to cool the transmission fluid during vehicle operating conditions that result in high transmission loads. 15.5 Exhaust Brake Switch (PGN 61441 ($F001) Byte 5 Bits 8-1) Exhaust Brake Switch may be programmed to None (Default), J1/P1: 16, J1939 Cab Controller, J1939 Body Controller or J1939 Instrument Cluster. When programmed to one of the J1939 inputs the received message must be => 95.2%, before the Engine Exhaust Brake can be enabled. Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____ 73
15.6 Engine Diagnostic Switch (PGN 65265 ($FEF1) Byte 8 Bits 6,5) Engine Diagnostic Switch may be programmed to None (Default), J1/P1: 46, J1939 Cab Controller, J1939 Body Controller or J1939 Instrument Cluster. When programmed to one of the J1939 inputs and the ECM receives an On/ Off message transition, the ECM will enter into Diagnostic Mode and will cause the hardwired Check Engine Lamp to flash active Error codes. 15.7 Transmission Neutral Switch The Transmission must support the J1939 PGN $F005 (ETC2 Byte 1 Selected Gear, Byte 4 Current Gear or Byte 7 Current Range) message to be compatible. Selected gear and Actual Gear must be 0 when the transmission is in Neutral. If the message is not received, the ECM will assume the transmission to be in gear.
74
16.0 Dedicated PTO Operation

PTO operation is very flexible and can be programmed to take advantage of a variety of switch and throttle input options. Engine speed can be controlled to maintain a Set Speed from Low to High Idle. There are programmable set points and limits for engine RPM. There are programmable Kickout limits that can be set to return the engine to Low idle when those limits are exceeded. There are also outputs that can be used to enhance PTO operation. There are four programmable PTO Configurations available: 1) Off 2) Cab Switches 3) Remote Switches 4) Remote Throttle The PTO features are designed to provide functional capability to cover most typical applications: Bulk Hauler, Cement Mixers, Fire Truck, Refuse Packers, Bucker Trucks, etc. A variety of inputs allow the OEM or body-builder to add the necessary switches and/or accelerator pedal sensor, which will reduce the amount of splicing and disturbance of the cab wiring. Caterpillar recommends the OEM provide an access connector in an easily accessible location to aid the body builder in installation of these features. 16.1 Input Electrical Specifications Caterpillar requires all switches, and all components used in these circuits to meet the specifications as outlined in this document. Electrical specifications for the remote accelerator pedal position sensor are described in Section 6 of this document. 16.2 Sensor Common for PTO Applications ECM Vehicle Harness Connector J1/P1: 3 (Input Sensor Common #2) is designated as the Sensor Common connection for PTO additions. Caterpillar recommends this connection be reserved for components connected to the engine to control engine speed for PTO applications only. In the event that additional sensor or switch returns are required, the PTO components can also be connected to J1/P1: 18 (Input Sensor Common #1) or J1/P1: 5 (AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common) if desired. Devices that do not interface with the ECM Must Not be connected to these common connections. 16.3 PTO On/Off Switch Operation Whenever this switch is cycled to the ON position, PTO operation is assumed. If the engine is started with this switch closed, the engine will be in PTO mode, but not active until the operator toggles a PTO related switch. The PTO On/Off switch is connected to J1/P1: 56. 16.4 PTO Switch On Lamp The ECM provides a lamp driver output on J1/P1: 30. When the Customer Parameter PTO Switch On Lamp is programmed to J12/P1: 30 (default is None) and the PTO Switch is closed, the lamp will turn On. J1/P1: 30 is a low side driver. This lamp should be located where the operator will see it. For remote PTO applications, a cab and remote lamp should be installed This lamp will flash when the PTO Timer is within the 90 seconds of shutting the engine down. If another feature is using this output (Change Oil Lamp or Warning Lamp Option 1) then a lamp can be wired to a multiple pole PTO ON/OFF switch.

Wiring Diagram 20 - PTO Engine Shutdown Circuit

OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Two Pole switch used for a PTO mode ON Switch 2) Mushroom type Emergency Shutdown Switch. This switch must be a non-spring returned, Push to Trip type of switch requiring the mushroom button to be pulled or twisted in order to be reset. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) None 16.7 Maximum PTO Enable Speed The Maximum PTO Enable Speed parameter may be programmed to prevent the engine from entering PTO mode when the engine RPM is too high. The engine will not be in PTO mode, the PTO Active Output will remain OFF and the PTO On Lamp will FLASH until the engine RPM is at or below the programmed limit. With the PTO mode On Switch in the ON position, once the engine drops below this limit the engine will enter PTO mode. Once in PTO mode all the applicable PTO settings and features will apply. 16.8 PTO Kickout Vehicle Speed Limit The PTO Kickout Vehicle Speed Limit parameter may be used to cause the ECM to kickout of PTO mode when this vehicle speed limit is exceeded. Kicking out of PTO mode will return the engine to normal cab controls. 16.9 Maximum Vehicle Speed in PTO Mode The Maximum Vehicle Speed in PTO Mode parameter may be programmed to limit the vehicle speed while in PTO mode. Increasing vehicle speed past this limit will result in the engine speed being reduced in order to maintain the programmed PTO mode vehicle speed limit. 16.10 PTO Activates Cooling Fan PTO Activates Cooling Fan is a parameter that is programmable to Normal (default) or Continuous. This parameter requires use of the ECM cooling fan circuit. The ECM will signal the cooling fan to continuous operation when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON to reduce changes in load while being used for dedicated PTO applications. Setting this parameter to Normal (default) indicates the fan will operate the same (dependent upon coolant temperature, etc.) with the PTO On/Off circuit ON or OFF. PTO Configuration must be programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches, or Remote Throttle before this parameter can be programmed. The Fan Control Type parameter must not be programmed None.

16.11 PTO Output Activation Speed PTO Output Activation Speed allows the customer/operator the ability to engage PTO, using the PTO Active Output, at a desired engine speed. The engine will ramp to the desired programmed speed before the PTO Active Output is turned ON. Once engine speed has reached the programmed value 100 rpm, the PTO Active Output will be turned ON. This feature allows easier engine operation for applications where PTO load dump is high. This feature is designed to work in conjunction with PTO Applications utilizing the PTO Active Output feature of the engine. PTO Active Output is covered in section 16.5 of this chapter. This feature is only available on Emergency Vehicle Horsepower ratings. 16.12 PTO Interlocks The switches labeled PTO Interlock in the wiring diagrams are redundant switches and should be added to insure the engine is put in PTO mode only when the vehicle is ready and prepared for PTO operation. It is the responsibility of the OEM (or Body Builder) to determine which interlocks are required for their particular application. 16.13 PTO Customer Access Connector Caterpillar recommends that the OEM provide an access connector for those chassis frequently used in vocational applications. This connector should provide wiring from the ECM to a connector that is easily located and identified on the vehicle. Caterpillar recommends the circuits listed in the following table be provided at this connector. PTO Access Connector Recommendations Terminal Description PTO On/Off PTO Set PTO Resume PTO Shutdown PTO Throttle Signal PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B Switch/Sensor Common #2 PTO On Lamp PTO Active Output ECM Terminal Assignment J1/P1: 56 J1/P1: 58 J1/P1: 60 J1/P1: 7 J1/P1: 68 J1/P1: 46 J1/P1: 23 J1/P1: 3 J1/P1: 30 J1/P1: 19

16.14.2 Cab Switches Programmable Options

The following list includes all of the programmable options available for the PTO Configuration Cab Switches: 1) Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration determines the function of the Set and Resume inputs when held in position or toggled. The two options are Set-Accel, Resume Decel or Set -Decel, Resume-Accel. This applies to cruise control, idle, and PTO modes of operation. If any PTO Engine RPM Set Speeds are programmed, the Set switch is an RPM increase switch and Resume is an RPM decrease switch for PTO. 2) Cruise Control Pause Switch Configuration If programmed to J1939 Body Controller, Instrument Cluster or Cab Controller this switch will act like the service brake or clutch switches for causing the PTO Mode to kickout. If in the ON position, this switch will prevent the engine from entering into PTO mode. There is no programmable parameter for ignoring this switch. 3) PTO Kickout Vehicle Speed Limit determines the vehicle speed operating range of the PTO inputs. If vehicle speed exceeds this limit the engine will either not allow an engine speed to be set, or disengage a set PTO speed. The PTO On/Off circuit has priority over Cruise Control On/Off and Fast Idle. A Vehicle Speed Input must be installed for this feature to function properly. 4) Ignore Brake/Clutch/Neutral Switch allows the PTO mode to ignore the brake, clutch and neutral switch inputs and not kickout of PTO mode if any of the switches are activated. The Ignore Brake/Clutch/Neutral Switch input must be programmed to and installed at J1/P1: 47. 5) Maximum Vehicle Speed in PTO Mode may be programmed to limit the vehicle speed while in PTO mode. Increasing vehicle speed past this limit will result in the engine being derated to maintain the programmed PTO mode vehicle speed limit. A Vehicle Speed Input must be installed for this feature to function properly. 6) Idle/PTO RPM Ramp Rate determines the rate of engine speed acceleration/deceleration for the Resume, Accel, and Decel operation. Applies to both PTO and Idle engine speed control. 7) Idle/PTO Bump RPM determines the amount of rpm increase/decrease when the Set/Resume switch is toggled in the Accel/Decel position. If a PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has been programmed this parameter applies to Idle only, where engine speed is set using the cruise control On/Off circuit. If PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has not been programmed this parameter applies to engine speed control using the cruise control On/Off and PTO On/Off circuit. 8) PTO Top Engine Limit Top RPM Limit of the engine when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. For applications requiring one PTO engine speed above low idle this parameter should be programmed to the same value as the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed parameter. For operation limiting PTO engine speed to two engine speeds above low idle with a toggle adjustment switch this parameter can be programmed to the top or second engine speed. 9) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed program this parameter only if one or two specific engine speed points above low idle are desired. The programmed low idle and PTO Top Engine Limit bound this parameter. Program this parameter above low idle but less than the PTO Top Engine limit to get three discrete engine speeds. With the PTO circuit ON, toggling the Set switch once advances engine speed to this programmed value. Toggle the Set switch again and the engine speed proceeds to the PTO Top Engine Limit. Toggle the Resume switch and the engine speed is reduced to the programmed Set Speed. Toggle the Resume switch again to return the engine to Low Idle. Program this parameter to the same RPM as the PTO Top Engine Limit if only two discrete engine speeds are desired. 10) PTO to Set Speed program this parameter only if the application requires the engine speed to ramp up to the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed whenever the PTO On/Off circuit is turned ON. 11) PTO Cab Throttle RPM Limit program this parameter if the operation requires limiting engine speed to protect equipment. If programmed to Low Idle, this parameter has the affect of ignoring/disabling the accelerator pedal position sensor when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON.
82
If programmed to PTO TEL the accelerator pedal position sensor can be used to control the engine speed up to the programmed PTO TEL when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. 12) Torque Limit program this parameter to a value established by the system limits for operation when a lower than rated torque limit is desired to protect equipment used for PTO operation. This limit applies whenever the Torque Limit switch is ON. 13) Torque Limit Switch must be programmed to J1/P1: 7 or J1/P1:23 and a switch must be installed corresponding to the programmed ECM terminal input for the Torque Limit option to work. 14) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A must be programmed to J1/P1:46 (Input #7) and an additional switch installed for this feature to function. 15) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/ P1:23 (Input #4 or Input #19) and an additional switch installed for this feature to function. 16) PTO Shutdown Time This parameter is programmable between 3 to 1440 minutes (a value of 0 turns this feature Off). This parameter sets the duration of time (in minutes) that engine will operate, with the PTO On/Off circuit ON and no vehicle speed present, before shutting down. 17) PTO Activates Cooling Fan This parameter determines if the engine cooling fan is on normally or Continuous while in PTO Mode. The Fan Control Type parameter must be programmed to other than None. 18) Transmission Neutral Switch This parameter must be programmed to J1/P1:62 or J1939 if the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 3, Automatic Option 4, AT/MT/HT Option 3 or AT/MT/HT Option 4.
16.14.3 Remote Switches

The Remote Switches Configuration utilizes a dedicated PTO On/Off circuit (J1/P1: 56) and dedicated PTO Set (J1/P1: 58) and PTO Resume (J1/P1: 60) switch inputs. Two PTO Switch On Lamps are recommended. One in the operator station and one at the Remote PTO control location. The ECM will ignore the Cab controls (Cruise Switches, service brake, etc.) when PTO is On. The PTO Set/Resume switches can be used to Bump and Ramp engine speed if the PTO Engine Set Speed is not programmed.

16.14.4 Remote Switches Programmable Options

The following list includes all of the programmable options available for the PTO Configuration Remote Switches. The options listed below are nearly identical to those for the Cab Switches Configuration. Differences include: the disabling of ECM response to all cab inputs (Cruise Control On/Off, Set/Resume, accelerator pedal position sensor, service brake pedal position, transmission neutral, and clutch pedal position switches) when the PTO On/ Off circuit is ON. 1) Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration only affects Remote Switches if a Remote Set and Remote Resume are installed, and PTO Set Speeds are not programmed. If PTO Set Speeds are programmed, the PTO Set is always RPM increases, the PTO Resume is always a RPM decrease. 2) PTO Kickout Vehicle Speed Limit determines the vehicle speed operating range of the PTO inputs. If vehicle speed exceeds this limit the engine will either not allow an engine speed to be set, or disengage a set PTO speed. The PTO On/Off circuit has priority over Fast Idle and Cruise Control On/Off circuits. The PTO Switch On Lamp will reflect this. 3) Maximum Vehicle Speed In PTO Mode determines the vehicle speed limit IN PTO mode. The existing Vehicle Speed Limit parameter will have overriding authority over the Maximum PTO Vehicle Speed, should the Maximum PTO Vehicle Speed be programmed to a value higher than the Vehicle Speed Limit. A Vehicle Speed Input must be installed for this feature to function properly. NOTE: This feature differs from the existing PTO Vehicle Speed Limit, in that it does not cause a PTO Kickout when the limit is reached. Instead, it allows the engine to remain in PTO Mode, but limits engine speed to provide vehicle speed limiting. If the PTO Vehicle Speed Limit is programmed to a lower value than the Maximum PTO Vehicle Speed, the existing kickout functionality will be used. 4) Idle/PTO RPM Ramp Rate determines the rate of engine speed acceleration/deceleration for the PTO and Idle engine speed control. 5) Idle/PTO Bump RPM determines the amount of rpm increase/decrease if a PTO Set/Resume switch is toggled in the Accel/ Decel position. If a PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has been programmed this parameter does not apply to PTO. 6) PTO Top Engine Limit Top RPM Limit of the engine when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. 7) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed program this parameter only if one or two specific engine speed points above low idle are desired. The programmed low idle and PTO Top Engine Limit bound this parameter. Program this parameter above low idle but less than the PTO Top Engine limit to get two discrete engine speeds above idle. With the PTO circuit ON, toggling the Set switch once advances engine speed to this programmed value. Toggle the Set switch again and the engine speed proceeds to the PTO Top Engine Limit. Toggle the Resume switch and the engine speed is reduced to the next lower operating speed. Program this parameter to the same RPM as the PTO Top Engine Limit if only one engine speed above idle is desired. 8) PTO to Set Speed program this parameter only if the application wants the engine speed to ramp up to the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed whenever the PTO On/Off circuit is turned ON. 9) PTO Cab Throttle RPM Limit this parameter has no affect on operation for the PTO Configuration Remote Switches- the Cab Throttle RPM Limit is always low idle when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. 10) Torque Limit program this parameter to a value established by the system limits for operation when a lower than rated torque limit is desired to protect equipment used for PTO operation. This limit applies whenever the Torque Limit Switch is ON. 11) Torque Limit Switch must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/P1:23 and a switch must be installed corresponding to the programmed ECM terminal input for the Torque Limit option to work. 12) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed A This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A must be programmed to J1/P1:46 (Input #7) and an additional switch installed for this feature to function.
85
13) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/ P1:23 (Input #4 or Input #19) and an additional switch installed for this feature to function. 14) PTO Shutdown Time This parameter is programmable between 3 to 1440 minutes (a value of 0 turns off this feature). This parameter sets the duration of time (in minutes) that engine will operate, with the PTO On/Off circuit ON and no vehicle speed present, before shutting down. 15) PTO Activates Cooling Fan This parameter determines if the engine cooling fan is on normally or Continuous while in PTO Mode. The Fan Control Type parameter must be programmed to other than None.
16.14.5 Remote Throttle

The Remote Throttle Configuration utilizes the dedicated PTO On/Off circuit (J1/P1: 56), and requires a dedicated PTO throttle. This throttle MUST be connected at all times. Disconnecting this throttle will result in diagnostics codes and the Check Engine Lamp will be On. The Remote PTO Set/Resume switches are not required for this configuration. A pair of PTO Switch On Lamps (one in cab and the other at the remote location) is recommended. The Engine will respond to the Remote Throttle position but the throttle must be at minimum or returned to minimum before engine will respond. The PTO Set and Resume switches can be used to Bump and Ramp engine speed. The remote throttle can raise engine speed above a Set Speed.

The disabling of ECM response to cab inputs Cruise Control On/Off, Set/Resume, service brake pedal position and clutch pedal position switches, cab accelerator pedal sensor) occurs when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. 1) Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration determines the function of the Set and Resume inputs when held in position or toggled. The two options are Set-Accel, Resume Decel or Set -Decel, Resume Accel. This applies to cruise control, PTO, and idle modes of operation.
87
2) PTO Vehicle Speed Limit determines the vehicle speed operating range of the PTO inputs. If vehicle speed exceeds this limit the engine will either not allow an engine speed to be set, or disengage a set PTO speed. This parameter also applies to the Idle circuit if using the Cruise Control On/Off switch instead of the PTO On/Off circuit. The PTO On/Off circuit has priority over Fast Idle and Cruise Control On/Off. 3) Maximum Vehicle Speed in PTO Mode may be programmed to limit the vehicle speed while in PTO mode. Increasing vehicle speed past this limit will result in the engine being derated to maintain the programmed PTO mode vehicle speed limit. 4) Idle/PTO RPM Ramp Rate determines the rate of engine speed acceleration/deceleration for the resume, accel, and decel operation. Applies to both PTO and Idle engine speed control. 5) Idle/PTO Bump RPM determines the amount of rpm increase/decrease when the Set/Resume switch is toggled in the Accel/Decel position. For the Remote Throttle configuration this parameter applies to engine speed control using the cruise control On/Off and PTO On/Off circuit. 6) PTO Top Engine Limit Top RPM Limit of the engine when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. 7) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed this parameter is not available if the PTO Configuration is Remote Throttle. 8) PTO to Set Speed this parameter is not available if the PTO Configuration is Remote Throttle. 9) PTO Cab Throttle RPM Limit programming this parameter has no affect for the PTO Configuration Remote Throttle. 10) Torque Limit program this parameter if a lower than rated torque limit is desired for equipment used for PTO operation, whenever the Torque Limit switch is ON. 11) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed A This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A must be programmed to J1/P1: 46 and an additional switch installed for this feature to function. 12) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can be attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/ P1:23 and an additional switch installed for this feature to function. 13) PTO Shutdown Time This parameter is programmable between 3 to 1440 minutes (a value of 0 turns off this feature). This parameter sets the duration of time (in minutes) that engine will operate, with the PTO On/Off circuit ON and no vehicle speed present, before shutting down. 14) PTO Activates Cooling Fan This parameter determines if the engine cooling fan is on normally or Continuous while in PTO Mode. The Fan Control Type parameter must be programmed to other than None.

This output can be connected to the coil side of a relay or directly to a solenoid (1.5 Amps maximum). If connected to a relay, the contact side of the relay should be connected to +Battery and the appropriate solenoid. Regardless if the output is used to connect to a solenoid or relay coil, Caterpillar recommends transient suppression be used on the inductive load in addition to the ECM internal protection. Circuit protection for the contact side of the relay and its grounding (when powering a relay) is left to the OEMs discretion. Do not ground the relay or solenoid to the ECM Sensor Common connections. 17.2 Starting Aid Output A Starting Aid Output parameter is available to connect to a relay and/or solenoid to control a Continuous Flow Starting Aid System. The Starting Aid Output parameter can be programmed to use J1/P1: 10 (Output #2) by programming the Starting Aid Output parameter to Automatic. The Coolant Temperature reading is used to determine if conditions require use of the Starting Aid. If a fault condition exists with the Intake Manifold Air Temperature sensor circuit, the Intake Manifold Air Temperature Sensor reading will be used. If the temperature reading is below 0C (32F) and an attempt is made to start the engine, the Starting Aid Output will be enabled for up to 30 seconds while the engine is cranking. If the engine starts or a condition occurs that prevents fuel from being injected, the Staring Aid Output will be disabled.

The exhaust brake output is enabled under the following conditions: 1) Engine rpm is greater than 1000 rpm. 2) Drivers foot is off the accelerator pedal (accelerator pedal position < 7%) and clutch pedal. 3) Dedicated PTO is not ON (PTO On/Off Switch OFF) 4) ECM Exhaust Brake Switch Input is ON (Exhaust Brake Switch parameter must be set to Installed) 5) Torque Converter Locked with vehicle speed 6) ABS is not requesting the Exhaust Brake to be OFF NOTE: If an Exhaust Brake On/Off Switch is installed in the Exhaust Brake OUTPUT circuit (Output #3), the Exhaust Brake will not function unless the On/Off switch is in the ON position (closed circuit).
17.3.2 Exhaust Brake Operation While In Cruise

When the Exhaust Brake Mode parameter is programmed to COAST the exhaust brake will operate only with the service brakes applied, allowing the engine to coast with no braking after they are released. Programming the Exhaust Brake Mode parameter to LATCH allows braking with the service brakes applied and keeps the exhaust brake ON after the service brakes are released (until rpm drops below 900 rpm or the driver presses the accelerator or clutch pedal). Programming the Exhaust Brake Mode parameter to MANUAL provides identical operation whether the cruise On/Off switch is ON or OFF (but not while in cruise control).
96
17.3.3 Exhaust Brake Operation and Auto Retarder in Cruise

When the Auto Retarder In Cruise parameter is programmed between 3 10 mph and Cruise Control is active, the exhaust brake will engage to help maintain the Cruise Control Set Speed. The Exhaust Brake in Cruise parameter value is the desired vehicle speed above the Cruise Control Set Speed to engage the exhaust brake. The exhaust brake will remain engaged until the vehicle speed has dropped below this value. The Exhaust Brake in Cruise option requires the optional Exhaust Brake Switch to be in the ON position. When the Auto Retarder In Cruise parameter is programmed to 0, the feature is disabled. Some automatic transmissions will down shift when the engine retarder engages. Caterpillar recommends that the Auto Retarder In Cruise parameter value be set to a minimum of 5 mph reduce transmission down shifting with the Auto retarder in Cruise feature. NOTE: If Soft Cruise is enabled, the programmable speed range over the Cruise Control Set Speed is 5 10 mph. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Exhaust Brake On/Off switch (optional). 2) Service Brake Switch #1 (Service Brake Switch #2 as well if required for transmission style) Clutch Switch (transmission style dependent) 1) OEM Installed Exhaust Brake.
17.3.4 Exhaust Brake Operation as a Warm Up Device

The Exhaust Brake may be used as an engine warm up device to add parasitic load to the engine to aid in attaining and maintaining normal engine operating temperatures. When programmed to Warm Up Only or Exhaust Brake & Warm Up, and the Exhaust Brake Switch is in the ON position (Exhaust Brake Switch Input is programmed to J1/P1:16 or a J1939 Data Link based source), the engine will ramp to the programmed Warm Up Mode Idle Speed and engage the Exhaust Brake. Warm Up Mode will kick-out once the engine is warmed up or if one of the following conditions are met: 1) The Service Brake is depressed 2) Clutch pedal is depressed (transmission style dependent) 3) Exhaust Retarder Switch OFF (Optional) 4) Vehicle in Gear (Optional neutral switch) 5) Throttle is depressed 6) Vehicle speed is more than 1 mph 7) ECM detects excessive engine load 8) Engine rpm is less than 500 or more than 1450 rpm OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Exhaust Brake On/Off switch. 2) Service Brake Switch #1 (Service Brake Switch #2 transmission style dependent) 3) Clutch Switch (transmission style dependent) 4) OEM Installed Exhaust Brake. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) The Exhaust Brake Switch parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 16, Cab Controller, Body Controller or Instrument Cluster. 2) Exhaust Brake/Warm Up Enable configuration programmed to Warm Up Only or Exhaust Brake & Warm Up 3) Warm Up Mode Idle Speed is programmed between 700 and 1400 rpm.

17.3.5 Engine Exhaust Brake and Automatic Transmissions

Automatic transmissions will utilize the exhaust brake status during a downshift when the exhaust brake is engaged. This exhaust brake status may come from the engine J1939 broadcast, or from a signal provided from the retarder circuit by chassis wiring. Consequently the integration of the engine, transmission, and chassis wiring must be taken into account when configuring the transmission and engine. Below are tables, which illustrate the required engine programming, based on the chassis and transmission configuration. 1) Chassis: Exhaust Brake Not Installed Transmission-to-retarder integration: Any ECM Programming Parameter Exhaust Brake Exhaust Brake Switch 2) Chassis: Exhaust Brake Installed Transmission-to-retarder integration: Transmission controller has input signal from engine ECM via chassis wiring ECM Programming Parameter Exhaust Brake Exhaust Brake Switch Setting Exhaust Brake Only, or Exhaust Brake + Warm Up J1/P1:16, J1939 Cab Controller, J1939 Instrument Cluster or J1939 Body Controller Setting None None

17.4 Engine Running Output (Starter Lockout) The engine is running Output is available on J1/P1: 13. This output is capable of 1.5 Amps and can drive a relay or solenoid. This output can be used to disable the starter or other devices when the engine is running. A normally closed relay is recommended so that cranking can be achieved immediately at power up. During cranking, the ECM will energize the relay once the engine speed reaches 50 rpm below low idle (700-800 rpm). A normally closed relay is recommended because the ECM could see insufficient battery voltage during cranking, preventing the ECM from providing sufficient battery voltage to energize the relay. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Engine Running Output Solenoid or Relay. Customer Parameter programming required: 2) None.

*This switch input can be a J1939 message from the J1939 Instrument Cluster, J1939 Cab Controller, or J1939 Body Controller. **This switch input can be a J1939 message from the transmission. 18.1 Transmissions Equipped with J1939 Communication The C7 and C9 engines can communicate with transmissions over the SAE J1939 data link. The engine will respond to transmission requests for speed and torque limiting. Transmissions can request that the engine engage the auxiliary brake to assist in shifting or prevent shift cycling. The transmission may request that the engines auxiliary brake be disengaged to prevent damage to torque converter. 18.2 Recommendations for the Exhaust Brake The transmission torque converter cannot tolerate engine auxiliary brake operation if the torque converter clutch is not engaged. If the engine is equipped with an Exhaust Brake the Engine Exhaust Brake Switch parameter must be programmed to J1/P1:16 or one of the J1939 sourced inputs. A physical switch does not have to be installed as an open circuit is the same as an open switch. 18.3 Recommendations for Cooling Fan The cooling fan causes engine loading that may interfere with transmission shifting. The J1939 broadcast for engine load is adjusted to compensate for cooling fan loading. Caterpillar recommends the following: 1) ECM controlled cooling fan 2) Air Conditioning input for fan control 3) If used, the manual fan override switch must be an input to the ECM

18.4 Allison WT Series The Allison WT requires connection to the SAE J1587/J1708 or SAE J1939 data link to communicate to the C7 or C9 ECM. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) SAE J1587 or SAE J1939 Data link connection to the Allison transmission control. 2) If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 2 or Automatic Option 3, connect Input #13 to Brake Switch #2. 3) If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 3, Automatic Option 4 or Universal, connect the Neutral switch to Input #12 or the SAE J1939 data link. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Transmission Style parameter programmed to Automatic Option 1, Automatic Option 2, Automatic Option 3, or Automatic Option 4. 2) Driveline Data Link parameter programmed to J1939 3) Transmission Neutral Switch parameter programmed to J1/P1:62 or J1939 (Transmission Style dependent) 18.5 Allison 1000 & 2000 Series The Allison 1000 and 2000 Series transmissions REQUIRE connection to the J1939 data link to communicate to the C7 or C9 ECM. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) SAE J1587 or SAE J1939 Data link connection to the Allison transmission control. 2) If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 2 or Automatic Option 3, connect Input #13 to Brake Switch #2. 3) If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 3 or Automatic Option 4, connect the Neutral switch to Input #12 or the SAE J1939 data link. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Transmission Style parameter programmed to Automatic Option 1, Automatic Option 2, Automatic Option 3, or Automatic Option 4. 2) Driveline Data Link parameter programmed to J1939 3) Transmission Neutral Switch parameter programmed to J1/P1:62 or J1939 18.6 Allison AT/MT/HT Transmissions The Allison AT/MT/HT (non-electronic) transmissions require an input from the ECM to regulate transmission shifting. The ECM does not control the transmission shift schedule. The ECM monitors accelerator pedal position, engine speed, load, and cruise control status to determine if the transmission should use closed throttle or full throttle shift modulation. Programming the Transmission Style parameter to AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4 activates 7J1/P1: 20 to control a shift interface relay connected to the transmission. This output does not control an Allison AT/MT/HT transmission with an ATEC control. The Shift Modulation setting is selectable by programming the AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed parameter. Three different modulation settings are available: Low (80% ON/65% OFF), Medium (70% ON/55% OFF), and High (60% ON/45% OFF). The High setting is the default setting, which will cause the transmission to remain in a lower gear longer (higher engine speed before shift occurs). The Medium setting is a compromise between the Default and the High setting. NOTE: Contact Allison Transmissions regarding recommended settings of this parameter for your application.

OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Shift Interface Relay. 2) J1/P1: 20 connected to the Shift Interface Relay. 3) Allison AT/MT/HT mechanical transmission with shift modulator. If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to AT/MT/HT Option 2 or AT/MT/HT Option 3, connect J1/P1: 64 to Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #2. If the Transmission Style parameter is programmed to AT/MT/HT Option 3 or AT/MT/HT Option 4, connect J1/P1: 62 to the Transmission Neutral Switch. Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Transmission Style programmed to AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4. 2) AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed programmed to desired setting Low, Medium or High. 18.7 Allison AT/MT/HT Shift Interface Relay Operation The AT/MT/HT Relay Circuit is provided by the ECM to indicate when the transmission should utilize closed throttle modulation or full throttle modulation. This allows the transmission to select Economy Mode or Performance mode. Operation of the relay is different depending upon whether cruise control is active or inactive. NOTE: Minimum ON and OFF time of the driver is based on vehicle speed changes.

19.0 Governor Type

The ECM has the capability of being programmed to one of two governor types. These governor types are Full Range and Min/Max. 19.1 Full Range Governor The Full Range governor is an engine speed governor that works on the principle that the engine will try to maintain an engine speed for a given throttle position. This governor type is recommended for all manual transmissions. Customer Parameter programming required: Governor Type programmed to Full Range. 19.2 Min/Max Governor The purpose of this feature is to provide an alternative type of engine speed governor commonly referred to as Min/Max Governor. This governor essentially only governs engine speed when at the minimum or maximum allowed engine speed. When in between these limits, the throttle -position will cause the engine to produce power proportional to its value. The benefit of this type of governor is smoother shifting for engines with automatic/ automated transmissions. Includes: Eaton Autoshift, Merritor Freedom, SureShift, All Allison and ZF Customer Parameter programming required: Governor Type programmed to Min/Max.

19.3 Min/Max Governor with Speed Control The Min/Max Governor with Speed Control feature allows the engine to switch to the Full Range Governor response characteristics when the Vehicle speed is less than 1 mph or when the transmission neutral switch (required) indicates that the transmission is in neutral. When the engine senses that the vehicle is in gear or is moving one mph or faster, the Min/Max Governor will take over. Note: When the transmission style programming expects a neutral switch input, programming the Neutral Switch Input to None causes the ECM to assume that the transmission is in gear at all times. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Vehicle Speed Input 2) Neutral switch (hardwired switch input or J1939 message) Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Governor Type programmed to Min/Max with Speed Control 2) Transmission Neutral Switch programmed to J1/P1: 62 or J1939 3) Vehicle Speed Input programmed to J1/P1: 32 & 33, J1939 trans or J1939 ABSs

20.0 Cooling Fan

The ECM provides a programmable parameter, Fan Control Type, and an output terminal, J1/P1: 11, for optional cooling fan control. The Fan Control Type parameter two options for types of cooling fan control systems. The Fan Control Type parameter also includes optional output signal types for design flexibility. 20.1 Fan Control basics The fan control output available at J1/P1: 11 provides a High for fan Off and Low for fan On. Because an electrical open circuit is the most likely failure mode, Caterpillar recommends a normally open circuit(s). The fan control is based on engine coolant temperature, engine retarder operation, intake manifold temperature and engine speed. Optional inputs can include an A/C compressor pressure switch, operator controlled Fan Override Switch and PTO programming. The Electronic Technician service tool can also cause the fan to turn on with special tests. During engine cranking, the ECM turns the output(s) OFF (fan ON) to prevent unnecessary cycling due to reduced voltage levels. The ECM controlled Cooling Fan may be turned ON with a J1939 based Fan Override Switch message. This allows the operator to turn the fan ON whenever the switch is closed for additional engine retarding and/or cooling. The J1939 Fan Override message may also be based from the transmission. When vehicle operating conditions cause elevated transmission oil temperatures, the transmission can broadcast the J1939 based Fan Override message to turn the fan ON for the required cooling. 20.2 Fan Control Options The Fan Control Type parameter determines what kind of fan the ECM is to control and the type of output signal. The Fan Control Type programmable options are On-Off PWM, On-Off DC, Variable Speed Option S and NONE (default). Program this parameter to NONE if the ECM is not connected to the Cooling Fan circuit. The DC and PWM options describe the output signal types available at J1:P1: 11. Fan Control Programming On/Off PWM Output at J1/P1:11 With Fan Off 225 Hz Square Wave, 0 Volts to Battery Voltage, @ 90% Duty Cycle Battery Voltage 80 HZ Square Wave, 0 to Battery voltage @~ 80 % Duty Cycle Output at J1/P1: 11 With Fan On 0 Volts Current Capability 1.5 Amperes

This output can be connected to the coil side of a relay or directly to a solenoid (if the maximum current draw for the solenoid is less than 1.5 amps). If connected to a relay, the contact side of the relay should be connected to +Battery and the appropriate solenoid. Regardless if the output is used to connect to a solenoid or relay coil, Caterpillar recommends transient suppression be used on the inductive load in addition to the ECM internal protection. Circuit protection for the contact side of the relay and its grounding (when powering a relay) is left to the OEMs discretion.

20.3 Cooling Fan Output Operation (On/Off) If the Fan Control Type parameter is programmed to ON/OFF the ECM provides control of an ON-OFF fan clutch. The Cooling Fan circuit sends out a high signal to turn the fan OFF. The fan comes ON in the event of an output circuit failure such as an open circuit. This requires a relay with normally open contacts (if powering the coil side of a relay), or a solenoid valve that deactivates the fan when it receives the disable (high) signal. Additional switching devices in the circuit should cause an open circuit to turn the fan ON. This circuit is designed to withstand a short circuit to +Battery voltage and will not be adversely affected if other devices are connected to this line when directly driving a solenoid. When driving a relay, connection of other devices to the Cooling Fan Output should not be necessary. To prevent unnecessary cooling fan cycling due to reduced voltage levels during engine cranking, the ECM turns the output OFF (fan ON). Because an electrical open circuit is the most likely failure mode, Caterpillar recommends a normally open circuit. The ECM will turn the cooling fan ON under any of the following conditions if engine rpm is less than 2750 rpm. 1) Engine Not Running. 2) During Engine Cranking. 3) Coolant Sensor Temperature > 207F (97C). 4) Active Coolant Temperature Sensor Diagnostic. 5) Inlet Manifold Air Temperature > 190F (88C). 6) Inlet Manifold Air Temperature > 163F (73C) with Boost Pressure > 10 psi (70 kPa). 7) Exhaust Brake ON > 2 seconds, when Fan With Engine Brake ON parameter is programmed to YES 8) A/C High Pressure Switch Input is Open or ECM is Counting. 9) PTO On/Off Switch in the ON position (PTO Activates Cooling Fan parameter is programmed to Continuous). 10) J1939 Fan Override Switch Message is =>95.2% (ON).

NOTICE Caterpillar requires the OEM to install a warning sticker near the fan indicating the fan is automatically controlled and may come ON at any time. ECM will keep the fan ON for 2 seconds after the engine has reached the programmed low idle (700 750 rpm). This is done because unstable vehicle battery voltage during cranking may cause the fan to cycle. The fan will be turned OFF by the control (after being turned ON) if engine rpm exceeds 2800 rpm or when all the following circumstances are met. 1) Coolant Sensor Temperature < 196F (91C) and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature < 151F (66C). 2) The fan has been ON for at least 30 seconds or the programmed A/C Pressure Switch Fan On Time. 3) Exhaust Brake ON Strategy is not Active, when Fan With Engine Brake ON parameter is programmed to YES 4) A/C High Pressure Switch is not Active. 5) The PTO On/Off Switch in the OFF position, when PTO Activates Cooling Fan parameter is programmed to Continuous. 6) J1939 Fan Override Switch message is <=94.8% (OFF). OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Solenoid or Solenoid and Relay. 2) J1939 Data Link 3) Fan Override Switch Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Cooling Fan Type programmed to On-Off Fan 2) A/C High Pressure Switch programmed to J1/P1: 41 3) A/C Fan Request programmed to J1/P1: 41 or J1/P1:62 (GMT-560 Only) 4) Fan Override Switch programmed to other than None. 5) Powertrain Data Link programmed to J1939. 20.4 Cooling Fan Output Operation (Variable Speed Fan Option S) The variable speed fan control is based on a fan system manufactured by Sauer-Danfoss. When the Fan Control Type parameter is programmed to Variable Speed Option S, the Engine Control Module provides a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal for open loop control. This output to the Fan Drive Controller (FDC) will vary fan speed in proportion to cooling demand. Any system non-linearity is compensated for by the FDC. The fan control will turn the fan FULL On (100%) during those conditions that require the fan to be On. These conditions include but are not restricted to: fan ON during PTO mode and fan ON with the exhaust brake engaged. Note: The Fan Override Switch message over J1939 will not vary the fan speed. The fan will be turned ON (100%) when the Switch Message value is =>95.2%.

20.6 Air Conditioning High Pressure Switch Programming the A/C High Pressure Switch parameter to J1/P1:41 (default is None) allows the ECM to respond to a normally closed high pressure A/C switch. This switch opens when the refrigerant pressure exceeds the desired level. The ECM has a timer available to prevent excessive cycling of the cooling fan clutch due to successive cycling of the A/C switch input. The timer is programmable from 0 to 600 seconds, with 0 seconds indicating the feature is OFF (the default). Typical programming is 30 seconds, with 1 second recommended for systems connecting this input to other controls with their own built in timers. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Normally closed high pressure A/C switch. 2) Cooling fan connection to Terminal 11(Output #5). Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Fan Control Type programmed to On-Off or Variable Speed Fan Option S. 2) A/C Switch Fan On-Time programmed in the 1 600 second range (0 = disabled).

21.0 Idle Shutdown Timer

To conserve fuel, the control system can be programmed to shut down the engine. The engine will shut down if it operates under reduced load with the vehicle stationary for a customer-defined period of time. This feature does not shut off vehicle electrical power. The Idle Shutdown Timer can be programmed between 1 and 1,440 minutes. The check engine lamp will begin to flash when the Idle Shutdown Timer enters the Driver Alert phase of the Idle Shutdown sequence. The Driver Alert phase is determined by the number of minutes programmed for the Idle Shutdown Timer, during this phase the check engine lamp will flash, warning the driver of an impending engine shutdown. When the Idle Shutdown Timer is programmed to one minute, the check engine lamp will begin to flash thirty seconds before the programmed time expires. If the Idle Shutdown Timer is programmed to two minutes or more, the check engine lamp will begin to flash ninety seconds before the programmed time expires. The operator can move the clutch or service brake during Driver Alert to override the timer. When the timer is overridden a diagnostic event is logged. The timer will remain in Override until the ECM has detected that the vehicle has moved. The status of the Shutdown Timer will be broadcast as part of the J1939 Data Link SHUTDOWN message $FEE4 (65,252). Note: If the transmission neutral switch is programmed and installed, the idle shutdown timer will not start counting if the transmission indicates that the transmission is in gear. OEM provided and installed components required: 1) Vehicle speed source. 2) Check Engine Lamp. 3) Service Brake Pedal Position Switch #1. (Service Brake Switch #2 if required by transmission style). 4) Clutch Pedal Position Switch. (If Transmission Style is programmed to Manual Option 1 or 2, Universal). 5) Transmission Neutral Switch (If Transmission style parameter is programmed to Automatic Option 3, Automatic option 4, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4). Customer Parameter programming required: 1) Idle Shutdown Time programmed in the 1 1440 minutes range. 2) Vehicle Speed Calibration. 21.1 Cold Mode Idle Shutdown Timer Enable The Idle Shutdown Timer is disabled if Engine Coolant Temperature is less than 38 DEG C (100 DEG F) and the engine is running less than 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the Idle Shutdown Timer is enabled regardless of engine coolant temperature. The default is set to Disabled. When programmed to Enabled, the Idle Shutdown Timer will begin counting down immediately once the engine reaches low idle. Regardless of Engine Coolant Temperature or how long the engine has been running.

22.0 Data Links

An OEM installed wiring harness to a cab mounted diagnostic connector is necessary to allow for accessing the data link with a service tool. There is not a diagnostic connector supplied in the engine harness. Caterpillar requests the vehicle OEM install a diagnostic connector in the engine compartment for those applications where the cab diagnostic connector is too far away for practical service of the engine. For an engine compartment mounted diagnostic connector, Caterpillar recommends grounding the engine data link connector directly to the engine ground stud through a splice into either -Battery wire (Connector P1, terminal 65 or 67). It must not be grounded to ECM Sensor Common connections. An example application for an engine compartment installed diagnostic connector would be found on a bus or RV with a rear-mounted engine. 22.1 SAE J1587/J1708 Data Link The ECM has a standard data link available for communicating with electronic service tools, dash displays, and certain transmissions. The ATA (American Trucking Association), SAE J1587/SAE J1708 Data Link is standard on all Caterpillar Truck Engines. The ATA data link can reduce duplication of engine and vehicle sensors by allowing other control systems to share sensor information. The ATA data link is used to communicate with Caterpillar Pocket Technician and Caterpillar Electronic Technician service tools. The ATA data link does not require a Customer Parameter to activate. The data link follows SAE recommended practice J1708 for hardware and SAE recommended practice J1587 for the communication protocol. The following diagrams represent the ATA data link installed into a 6-terminal or 9-terminal dash connectors.

23.0 Customer Specified Parameters

Customer Specified Parameters allow the truck owner to influence how a driver operates the vehicle. Some parameters may affect engine operation in ways an inadequately trained driver does not expect. These parameters may lead to power or performance complaints, even when the engine is performing to specification. Customer parameters may be changed repeatedly as a customer changes his operation or as new drivers are assigned to a truck. Customer Passwords (once programmed) are required to change these parameters. The following is a brief description of the Customer Specified Parameters. Along with each are the available values for the parameter and the default value. The parameter value shown in bold is the programmed setting that will disable a feature. The tables show values in U.S. (or English) units (miles, mph, quarts), followed by an approximate range for its metric (kilometers, km/h, liters) units counterpart. The exact range of the parameter in metric units depends upon the Service Tool used because each Tool may use slightly different conversion factors. 23.1 Customer Parameter Lockout This feature is available to restrict access to changing some available parameters. Locking out a parameter requires Customer Passwords if they have been previously programmed. Once a parameter is locked out, Factory Passwords are required to change the parameter or to unlock the parameter. If a lockable parameter is not locked out, Factory Passwords are not required. A locked out parameter restricts the parameter from being changed directly by the customer. This helps vehicle owners encountering problems with operators obtaining Customer Passwords and tampering with the parameter configuration. The following Customer Parameters are available for lockout using an Electronic Service Tool or VEPS: A/C Switch Fan On-Time Battery Monitor & Engine Control Voltage Battery Monitor & Low Idle Engine Speed High Cruise Control Speed Set Limit High Speed Range Axle Ratio Low Speed Range Axle Ratio Max PTO Vehicle Speed Soft Vehicle Speed Limit Top Engine Limit Factory Passwords are also required to change a parameter from locked to unlocked. If all of the parameters are locked out, and each one needs to be unlocked, only one Factory Password is required when the Parameter Lockout screen is accessed on the Electronic Service Tool.

23.3 Truck Manufacturer Parameters
23.3.1 Truck Manufacturer

This parameter is not available for C9 engines. The C9 engine does not support GM designated parameters. This parameter is used to configure the correct set of parameter options/ranges and defaults for the vehicle application. The Truck Manufacturer parameter is Factory Programmed at Caterpillar to provide the same functionality with one ECM and one set of Personality Module software. Factory Passwords are required to change the parameter setting once it has been programmed. The following list of customer parameters identifies the different options and/or defaults provided for both configurations listed below. Truck Mfg GM, Other Default Not Programmed VEPS PID N/A (Factory Programmed)
23.4 Vehicle Speed Parameters
23.4.1 Vehicle Speed Calibration

This calibration is used when the ECM is configured for use with a hardwired Vehicle Speed Sensor connected to ECM Vehicle Harness Connector J1/P1 terminal 32 & 33. The ECM uses this value to scale the vehicle speed signal into miles per hour. It is programmed in pulses per mile (PPM), which represents the number of pulses produced per mile in the vehicle speed sensor by the teeth of the chopper wheel mounted on the transmission output shaft. When the hardwired Vehicle Speed Input option is used (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed to J1/P1:32 & 33), this parameter must be programmed or a Diagnostic Code 253-02 Check Customer Or System Parameters (56) will occur. This parameter affects cruise control, the ECM speedometer signal, Trip Totals, PTO operation, etc. Truck Mfg Other (2485 ppkm) GM Minimum 4000 PPM (238080 ppkm) 4000 PPM (2485 ppkm) Maximum 383000 PPM 383000 PPM (238080 ppkm) Default Not Programmed 32000 (19884) FC5F VEPS PID

23.4.2 Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans)

This calibration is used when the ECM is configured to calculate Vehicle Speed based on Transmission Output Shaft Speed information received via the J1939 datalink (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed to J1939-Trans). This value represents the Transmission Output Shaft revolutions per mile. The ECM uses this value, and the information received from the Transmission ECU via J1939 datalink (output shaft speed) to calculate actual vehicle speed. When the J1939 Vehicle Speed option is used (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed to J1939-Trans), this parameter must be programmed or a Diagnostic Code 253-02 Check Customer Or System Parameters (flash code 56) will occur. This parameter affects cruise control, the ECM speedometer signal, Trip Totals, PTO operation, etc. Minimum 0 PPM (0 rev/km) Maximum 65000 PPM (43000 rev/km) Default Not Programmed VEPS PID FCEC
23.4.3 Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939 ABS)

This calibration is used when the ECM is configured to calculate Vehicle Speed based on ABS wheel speed information received via the J1939 datalink (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed to J1939-ABS). The ABS manufacturer should be contacted to verify this message is supported. This value represents the ratio to ASSUMED ABS tire revolutions per mile divided by the ACTUAL tire revolutions per mile. If the assumed tire size matches the actual tire size, the Vehicle Speed Cal will be equal to 1. If the ABS assumed tire revolution per mile is not correct, the vehicle speed cal is equal to the ACTUAL Tire Revolutions per mile/ABS ASSUMED Tire revolutions per mile. ABS Assumed tire revolutions per mile = 500 Actual Tire revolutions per mile = 400 Vehicle Speed Cal = 400/500 = 0.800 Note: If the Vehicle Speed Input parameter is programmed to J1939-ABS, the Vehicle Speed Cal parameter must be programmed or a Diagnostic Code 253-02 Check Customer Or System Parameters (56) will occur. This parameter affects cruise control, the ECM speedometer signal, Trip Totals, PTO operation, etc. Minimum 0 Maximum 6.550 Default Not Programmed VEPS PID FCED
23.4.4 Vehicle Speed Limit

Top vehicle speed the ECM will permit. The ECM will shut off fuel above this speed. An inexperienced driver may think something is wrong with the engine, because the engine will not fuel above this vehicle speed limit. Vehicle speed limiting allows implementation of a gear fast/run slow truck specification to further improve fuel economy while limiting top vehicle speed. Truck Mfg GM Other Minimum 30 MPH (48 km/h) 30 MPH (48 km/h) Maximum 75 MPH (121 km/h) 127 MPH (204 km/h) Default 75 MPH (121 km/h) 127 MPH (204 km/h) VEPS PID 61

23.4.5 VSL Protection

Maximum engine rpm when there is an ECM detected vehicle speed signal problem. The ECM limits to this engine rpm when it senses no vehicle speed signal, and the engine is loaded. This is a feature to deter tampering by running without a Vehicle Speed input to the ECM. Truck Mfg All Minimum 1700 rpm Maximum TEL rpm Default TEL rpm VEPS PID 66
NOTE: When this parameter is programmed to TEL rpm, diagnostic codes 84-01 Loss Of Vehicle Speed Signal (31) and 84-10 Vehicle Speed Rate of Change (36) are disabled. When programmed this way, the VSL Protection can be exceeded by disconnecting the Vehicle Speed Sensor. 23.4.6 Tachometer Calibration The ECM uses this value to scale the engine speed signal into revolutions per minute for a tachometer. It is programmed in pulses per revolution (ppr). Programmable range is from 2.0 to 500.0 in 0.1 ppr increments. Truck Mfg Other GM 530/540 GMT560 Minimum 2.0 PPR 2.0 PPR 2.0 PPR Maximum 500.0 PPR 500.0 PPR 500.0 PPR Default 134.0 PPR 17.5 PPR 2.0 PPR VEPS PID C7

23.4.8 High Speed Range Axle Ratio

This parameter must be programmed when the Two Speed Axle Switch parameter is programmed to other than none. When a two-speed axle is used, the change in gear ratios from the main drive axle ratio to the low-speed axle ratio alters the calibration of the vehicle speed input. This requires a calibration adjustment to ensure the ECM driven speedometer and stored ECM information correctly reflect the actual vehicle speed. This parameter should be programmed to the main drive axle ratio. If a two-speed axle is not used then this parameter does not require programming. Minimum 0.00 Maximum 19.99 Default 0.00 VEPS PID FC5D

Minimum 5 rpm Maximum 500 rpm Default 20 rpm VEPS PID F1
23.6.4 Fast Idle RPM #1

Fast Idle RPM #1 determines the preset Fast Idle engine rpm as controlled using the Fast Idle Enable Switch. The operator can override this rpm. To override, depress the accelerator pedal until the desired rpm is reached, and then depress the Fast Idle Enable Switch. This rpm will be the Fast Idle RPM #1 as long as the ECM is powered up. This feature requires Input #18 connected to a Fast Idle Enable Switch and Output #9 programmed for and connected to a Fast Idle Enabled Lamp. Minimum 700 rpm Maximum TEL rpm Default 1000 rpm VEPS PID C6
151
23.6.5 Fast Idle RPM #2

Fast Idle RPM #2 determines a second preset Fast Idle engine rpm as controlled using the Fast Idle Enable Switch. This rpm cannot be overridden within its programmable range by the operator. The ECM will increase from the programmed Low Idle to Fast Idle RPM #1 the first time the Fast Idle Enable switch is depressed and released, and then increase rpm to Fast Idle RPM #2 after the Fast Idle Enable switch is depressed and released the second time. If the Fast Idle Enable switch is depressed and released a third time, the ECM returns to low idle, disabling the Fast Idle. The default of 0 rpm disables this feature. This feature requires Input #18 connected to a Fast Idle Enable Switch and Output #9 programmed for and connected to a Fast Idle Enabled Lamp. Minimum 700 rpm Maximum TEL rpm Default 0 rpm VEPS PID FC42
23.6.6 Warm Up Mode Idle Speed

Determines the engine rpm while in warm up mode. The Warm Up Mode Idle Speed can be programmed between 700 and 1400 RPM. The Warm Up Mode Idle Speed is activated if the sum of Coolant and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature is less than 86F (30C). The warm Up Mode Idle Speed can be disabled by depressing the service brake, clutch or by placing the transmission in gear from neutral (transmission style and Neutral switch programming dependent). The engine Cold Elevated Idle can slowly ramp and return to the programmed Warm Up Mode Idle Speed after being disabled. Minimum 700 rpm Maximum 1400 rpm Default 1000 rpm VEPS PID FE08
23.7 Dedicated PTO Parameters
23.7.1 PTO Configuration

Determines the features available and inputs used for Dedicated PTO applications. OFF (default) indicates the application does not use PTO. The remaining PTO programmable options require a PTO On/Off circuit connected to ECM Input #1. Output #1 (ECM Connector J1/P1, terminal 30) can also be used as a PTO Switch On Lamp. If programmed to Cab Switches the ECM will use the Cruise Control SET (J1/P1, terminal-35) and RESUME. (J1/P1, terminal-44) switch inputs for PTO control and Cruise Control. If programmed to Remote Switches the ECM will monitor the programmed inputs and ignore the cab controls when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. If programmed to Remote Throttle, the ECM will monitor Input #8 (J1/P1 terminal-68) for the remote accelerator pedal. The ECM will monitor the programmed inputs and ignore the cab controls when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. Alternatives Cab Switches, Remote Switches, Remote Throttle Default Off VEPS PID F3
152
23.7.2 PTO Top Engine Limit

23.7.4 PTO Engine RPM Set Speed A

The engine rpm the ECM will control the engine to when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A switch is ON. The RPM can be programmed to operate from Low Idle up to the PTO Top Engine Limit RPM. While operating at this set speed, all other speed control inputs are ignored (Cab and Remote Throttle, and the Set/Accel and Resume/Decel switches). This feature can also be used in conjunction with (and will override) the PTO to Set Speed and PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B features for multiple speed PTO operation. Any time the PTO On/Off circuit is ON and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A switch is ON, the engine will only operate at this programmed speed, unless a condition is present to kickout PTO operation (brake or clutch pedal depressed, PTO Vehicle Speed Limit exceeded, etc.). In the event that the PTO operation is kicked out, the engine will return to low idle. NOTE: The PTO Configuration parameter must be programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches or Remote Throttle and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 46 for this feature to function. Minimum Programmed Low Idle rpm Maximum PTO TEL rpm Default 0 rpm VEPS PID FC8B
23.7.5 PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B The engine rpm the ECM will control the engine to when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON, the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B switch is ON and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A switch if OFF. The RPM can be programmed to operate from Low Idle up to the PTO Top Engine Limit RPM. While operating at this set speed, all other speed control inputs are ignored (Cab and Remote Throttle, and the Set/Accel and Resume/Decel switches) except PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A. This feature can also be used in conjunction with (and will override) the PTO to Set Speed feature for multiple speed PTO operation. Any time the PTO On/Off circuit is ON, the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B switch is ON and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A switch if OFF, the engine will only operate at this programmed speed, unless a condition is present to kickout PTO operation (brake or clutch pedal depressed, PTO Vehicle Speed Limit exceeded, etc.). In the event that the PTO operation is kicked out, the engine will return to low idle.
153
NOTE: The PTO Configuration parameter must be programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches or Remote Throttle and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B parameter must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/P1:23 for this feature to function. Minimum Programmed Low Idle rpm Maximum PTO TEL rpm Default 0 rpm VEPS PID FC8C
23.7.6 PTO to Set Speed

The PTO Configuration must be programmed to Cab Switches or Remote Switches before this parameter can be programmed. Programming this parameter to Yes will cause the engine to ramp at the programmed ramp rate to the programmed PTO Set Speed when PTO is enabled. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed A or B will override this feature. Programming this parameter to No (default) will prevent automatic engine RPM ramping when PTO is enabled. NOTE: This parameter is not available for the PTO configuration- Remote Throttle. Alternatives Yes Default No VEPS PID F6
23.7.7 Maximum PTO Enable Speed

Maximum allowed engine speed that PTO mode will engage. PTO mode will engage when the engine rpm is at or below this programmed value. Alternatives 700 to TEL (rpm) Default TEL VEPS PID FCF6
23.7.8 PTO Cab Throttle RPM Limit

This parameter is intended to prevent engine overspeed while using dedicated PTO. It can be programmed to allow the Cab Throttle to exceed the programmed PTO TEL during PTO operation, by programming it to TEL. If programmed to Low Idle, the Cab Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor is ignored. If programmed to TEL, the engine will operate to the programmed Top Engine Limit. If programmed to PTO TEL, the engine will operate to the programmed PTO Top Engine Limit. NOTE: PTO Configuration must be programmed to Cab Switches for this parameter to take effect. If PTO Configuration is programmed to Remote Switches or Remote Throttle, the ECM will always ignore the Cab Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON.

23.9.9 Transmission Style

Indicates to the ECM the type of transmission installed in the vehicle. It is also used by the ECM to determine whether or not to read inputs (brake switch #2, clutch, and neutral switches) and whether the Allison AT/MT/HT transmission driver is used. The Manual Option 1 & 2 selections require a clutch pedal position switch connected to ECM Connector J1/P1, terminal-24 or a clutch switch message from one of the supported J1939 sources. The transmission selections with a neutral switch require a transmission neutral switch connected to ECM Connector J1/P1, terminal-62 (Input #12) or available from the J1939 data link. The transmission selections with two brake switches require a second brake switch connected to ECM Connector J1/P1 terminal-64 (Input #13). If an Allison Automatic Transmission is installed, this parameter must be programmed to AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4. If any other automatic transmission is installed, this parameter should be programmed to Automatic Option 1, Automatic Option 2, Automatic Option 3, or Automatic Option 4.

23.9.10 AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed

The Allison AT/MT/HT (non-electronic) transmissions require an input from the ECM to regulate transmission shifting. The ECM monitors accelerator pedal position, engine speed, vehicle speed, load, and cruise control status to determine if the transmission should use closed throttle or full throttle shift modulation. Programming the Transmission Style parameter to AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HT Option 4 activates ECM 7 Output #7 to control a shift interface relay connected to the Allison Electric Modulator. This output does not control an Allison AT/MT/HT transmission with the ATEC control. The Shift Modulation setting is selectable by programming the AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed parameter. Three different modulation settings are available: Low (80% Enable/65% Disable), Medium (70% Enable/55% Disable), and High (60% Enable/45% Disable). The settings are based on the % Throttle required to either enable or disable the relay output. The High setting will cause the transmission to remain in a lower gear longer (higher engine speed before shift occurs). The Medium setting is a compromise between the Low and the High setting. Contact Allison Transmissions regarding recommended settings of this parameter for your application.

23.10.1 Programmable Parameters

Transmission Neutral Start Interlock allow the engine ECM to monitor the J1939 ETC#7 message from the transmission to either enable or disable the engine from cranking. The Engine Running Output must be programmed to J1/P1:31 and the Power Train Data Link must be programmed to J1939 for this feature to function. When programmed to Enabled, the ECM will listen to the ETC #7 message from the transmission. If the ECM sees a Crank Enable (01) message from the transmission, the Engine Running Output will be turned on and allow the engine to crank. If the ECM sees a Crank Disable (00), Error (10), Not Available (11), or the message is not received, the Engine Running Output will remain OFF, and the engine will not be allowed to crank. A Diagnostic code of 226-14 will be active if the Neutral Start Interlock is programmed to Enabled and no ETC #7 message is received from the transmission. Programming the Neutral Start Interlock when the ETC #7 message is not broadcast or failure of the J1939 Data Link occurs, the engine will not start under any conditions. This feature is only available for Truck Manufacturer of GM, and Truck Model Type of GM560. Alternatives Enabled 23.11 Timer Parameters Default Disabled VEPS PID FF36
23.11.1 Idle Shutdown Time

24.0 Diagnostics, Service Tools and Service Information

The control system has built-in diagnostics to verify system components are operating properly. In the event of a component failure, the driver is alerted to the condition via an OEM installed Check Engine or diagnostic lamp, or from a message transmitted over the SAE J1587 and/or J1939 data links. Intermittent faults are logged and stored in the memory of the ECM and can be retrieved using an Electronic Service Tool. The recommended electronic service tool for C7 and C9 engines is Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). ET is a software based service tool used to diagnose and repair Caterpillar products. It is designed to run on a personal computer using the Windows 95, 98, 2000, or Windows NT operating system. A new product from Caterpillar, Pocket Technician is software for the Palm Operating System (Palm OS) that allows a user to run diagnostics on CAT On-Highway Electronic Truck engines. Contact your local Caterpillar Dealer for more details. Older service tools will not recognize the C7 or C9 engine. These tools include the Electronic Control Analyzer and Programmer (ECAP) and the MPSI Pro-Link service tool with existing Caterpillar Cartridge. The Caterpillar Communication Adapter (PC to engine ECM) connector uses a 9-terminal Deutsch HD series connector to connect to the vehicle. Caterpillar offers a variety of adapter cables to connect various cab/engine datalink connectors to the standard 9-pin connector found on the 139-4166 or 207-6845 Service Tool cable. The following list identifies some of those adapter cables commonly used on various applications. X-1714- Connects 9-terminal Service Tool Cable (139-4166 or 207-6845) to GM ALDL Connector 7X-1686- Connects 9-terminal Service Tool Cable (139-4166 or 207-6845) to a 6-terminal Diagnostic Connector 157-4829 Connects 9-terminal Service Tool Cable (139-4166 or 207-6845) to a 9-terminal J1939/13 Off-Board Diagnostic Connector

24.1 ECM Software Changes ECM software changes (uprates, updates) require a personal computer, a Caterpillar approved communication adapter, and Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) Win-Flash. 24.2 Engine Totals The ECM maintains current totals for the following information ECM Maintained Total Data 1) Total Time 2) Total Distance 3) Total Idle Fuel 4) Total PTO Time 5) Total Fuel 6) Total Idle Time 7) Total PTO Fuel All data is stored in metric form except distance (miles), and vehicle speed (mph). Conversion to other formats are performed by the Electronic Service Tool. 24.3 Trip Data Included under the heading of Trip Segment is a Fleet Trip Segment. A segment is defined as the difference from the current instantaneous Engine Totals data and the Engine Totals stored at the previous reset of the data. When a reset occurs, the ECM stores the current ECM Engine Totals value in place of the old value for the respective Trip Data information. The ECM maintains only the data reset values for the Fleet Trip Data segment. The Trip Histograms include a 3-dimensional histogram (engine rpm, vehicle speed, and engine hours), two 2-dimensional histogram (one for engine rpm hours, the other for vehicle speed hours), and five sets of Fleet Segment Custom Data. The 2-dimensional histograms are a subset of the 3-dimensional histogram.

24.3.1 Fleet Trip Segment

The Fleet Trip Segment maintains the following Engine Totals information, recorded at the time of reset: Time (Engine Hours) Driving Time Distance Fuel Overall Fuel Economy Driving Fuel Economy Idle Time Idle Fuel Percent Idle Time PTO Time PTO Fuel Percent PTO Time Average Load Factor Average Vehicle Speed Average Driving Speed Max Vehicle Speed Max Engine Speed Start Time End Time Start Odometer End Odometer
24.3.2 Trip Histograms

The ECM maintains the histograms tracking Engine Hours at specific Engine Speed and Vehicle Speed ranges. The RPM data points and vehicle speed ranges are broken down into various ranges such as 0-4, 5-9, 10-14 mph or 0-599, 600-699, 700-799 rpm. A reset occurs via a data link message only. 24.4 Engine Snapshot Recorder The ECM stores engine operating parameters when diagnostic codes occur. An Electronic Service Tool or the Cruise Set/Resume switch can also be used to manually trigger a snapshot. The Set/Resume switch must be toggled to the Set then the Resume position within one second to trigger the snapshot recorder. The ECM can store up to two Diagnostic Code Triggered snapshots, two Externally triggered snapshots, and one Quick Stop Snapshot. Each type is stored in a circular buffer. When a new snapshot is taken, the oldest one in the buffer will be replaced. 24.5 Engine Snapshot Recorder Records Each diagnostic record contains 27 frames of information; frame 20 is the diagnostic code occurrence, 19 frames before, 7 frames following the code. Each frame is separated by 0.48 seconds. Each switch activated record contains 54 frames; frame 40 is the switch activation trigger, 39 frames before, 14 frames after the switch trigger. Time between frame is 0.24 seconds for the switch activated record. 24.6 Quick Stop Recorder A snapshot can also be stored for a Quick Stop occurrence if the Customer Parameter is programmed. The ECM stores the number of occurrences of the Quick Stop Events, as well as a snapshot of the latest occurrence. Each Quick Stop record contains 60 frames of information; frame 45 is the Quick Stop occurrence, 44 frames before, 15 frames following the code.

24.7 ECM Date/Time Clock The ECM date & time can be programmed using an Electronic Service Tool or VEPS. The Electronic Service Tool will display the programmed Date in Month/Day/Year format and the programmed Time in Hour:Minute:Second format. The Electronic Service Tool has the option to program any date/time or automatically select the date/time stored in the PC real time clock. The date and time will remain in the ECM and will not reset even if the Unswitched Battery connections are removed. The ECM real time clock is accurate to within four minutes per month worst case. Typically the accuracy is similar to a personal computer real time clock. Date Month Day Year 24.8 ECM Diagnostic Clock The Diagnostic Clock should not be confused with the ECM Date/Time clock. The Diagnostic Clock records actual hours that the ECM has been powered (ignition key switch ON). The diagnostic clock information is used to log diagnostic code and event code occurrences. Logged diagnostic codes and event codes display the diagnostic clock hour of the first and last occurrence and the total number of occurrences. The Diagnostic Clock does not represent actual Engine Hours, it increments any time the ECM is powered regardless of whether the engine is running or not. Actual Engine Running hours (Total Time) can be obtained from the Current Totals menu of ET (Electronic Technician). Time hour:minute:second VEPS PID FC1D
