Page 4: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE

This document is intended to provide necessary information for correct electrical & electronic application andinstallation 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 programdevelopment continues, and as OEM requests for information not currently addressed are added. The informationcontained in this version of the document reflects the Caterpillar design for production C7 and C9 engines builtwith March 2004 software.

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 selectablethrough 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 withreduced performance until the coolant temperature has warmed. The Caterpillar electronic service tool software willindicate when the engine is operating in Cold Mode. The C7 engine will operate in Cold Mode below 64 Deg C andthe 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 EngineHarness, 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 pressuredisplayed by service tools and communicated over the data link is referenced to the Atmospheric Pressure Sensorreading. The Boost Pressure Sensor measures gauge pressure from 0 psi (0 kPa) to 49 psi (340 kPa). The ECMsupplies 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 measurespressure 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 isdesired. Typical applications include vehicles with a vehicle data link capable Instrument Cluster that can displayengine 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 engineto 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 asdisplayed by service tools and communicated over the data link is referenced to the Atmospheric Pressure Sensorreading. 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 fromthis 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 likethe 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 sensorsdetect 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 engine’s coolant level. This sensor is usuallymounted in the cooling system’s 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 usedto feed the hydraulically actuated electronically controlled unit injectors. The ECM supplies the sensor with thenecessary 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 outputof 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 inletair to aid in starting during cold ambient temperatures. Operation is based on elevation (above sea level) and thesum of the Coolant and Inlet Manifold Air temperatures. The ECM controls the normally open relay to providebattery 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 supplypressure 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 wiredto the Engine Connector (J2) of the ECM. This switch monitors the oil level in the oil pan and is checked at initialengine power up. Proper Oil level in the engine will keep a normally open switch closed. Oil level that is too lowwill allow the switch to open. If the ECM senses an open switch upon three sequential engine starts, low oil levelis indicated.

3.0 Engine Monitoring

The Engine Monitoring system monitors engine coolant temperature, engine oil pressure (optional), coolantlevel (optional) and Inlet manifold air temperature. C7 and C9 engines are shipped with the Caterpillar coolanttemperature sensor and Inlet manifold air temperature sensor. Optional sensors include an engine oil pressuresensor 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 CustomerProgrammable 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 areexceeded. The default option for Engine Monitoring Lamps is Warning Lamp. This default option provides for onelamp output designated as the Warning Lamp and is used for all monitored engine condition warnings. When theEngine 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 levelsensor is programmed through the Customer Programmable Parameter, Coolant Level Sensor. This parameter hasa 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 engine’s sensors to monitor the engine’s 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 EngineMonitoring is programmed to Derate or Shutdown.

Intake Manifold Air Temperature must exceed the triggering temperatures for 30 seconds after engine start upbefore a Diagnostic Code is generated and logged. A High Intake Manifold Air Temperature Warning diagnosticcode is triggered at 194°F (90°C), and a Very High Intake Manifold Air Temperature at 230°F (110°C).

In addition to the Check Engine Lamp, the Warning Lamp is also turned ON if Engine Monitoring is programmedto 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 fromoperating without sufficient oil pressure.

With Engine Monitoring programmed to Warning, the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the Low Oil Pressuretrip point. At the Very Low Oil Pressure trip point the Warning Lamp will be turned On in addition to theCheck Engine Lamp.

When programmed to Derate the Check Engine Lamp will turn On at the Low Oil Pressure trip point. At theVery 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 theVery Low Oil Pressure trip point the Warning Lamp will flash during engine derate and then the engine will shutdown 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 temperaturetrip points have been established for High and Very High Coolant Temperatures. These trip points are illustratedin 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 HighCoolant Temperature trip point (110-00). At the Very High Coolant Temperature trip point (110-11) the WarningLamp 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 steprepresents 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])

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDE

Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____ 13

Page 14: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

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 andthe 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 theVery 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 Engine’s 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 inthe engine’s cooling system during the assembly process. After the engine has logged 6 hours of engine runningtime, the diagnostic faults and events for Low (111-01) and Very Low Coolant Levels (111-11) will be logged intothe ECM’s nonvolatile memory. Service technicians are required to contact Caterpillar for permissions to clearLow (111-01) and Very Low (111-11) Coolant Level events from the ECM’s nonvolatile memory.

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 controlsystem, 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 isrecommended 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 connectionintegrity. More than three terminals can cause the stud to loosen too easily. Caterpillar recommends splicing likesize wires together as a method of reducing ring terminal congestion at the ground stud.

Page 22: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

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 theengine ground stud to the battery negative post. Caterpillar prefers this connection route through the starter negativepost. 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 toremove paint from painted surfaces. Use flat washers for this connection, with the paint completely removedin 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 membersmay 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 railconnection.

5) Caterpillar does not recommend a connection from the engine ground stud to the main frame rail at a connectionpoint different than where the battery ground connection is made. A two-point frame rail connection methoddepends 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 connectionsshould 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 studhas 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 beginnormal firing and keep the engine running. This requires adequate battery capacity, a starting motor, and cablesto 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 withthe 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 Commonconnections. ECM Connector P1 terminal-5 should be used to connect the ground side of the followingengine 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) andterminal-3 (Input Sensor Common #2) can be used if required by the harness design, for example, to splice allcab 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 groundedor case grounded switches must not be used.

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDE

22 Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____

Page 23: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

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 adedicated 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 thesuppression 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 thebattery lines. Unsuppressed voltage transients can exceed SAE J1455 specifications and degrade control systemperformance. Some specific devices that should use transient suppression are fan clutch solenoids, A/C clutchsolenoids, and all relays. This is not an all-inclusive list. The OEM should specify relays and solenoids with built-involtage transient suppression on the vehicle where possible.

The following illustration provides several possible suppression techniques to minimize the generation of voltagetransients from relays and solenoids without built-in voltage transient suppression. These include, but are not limitedto, 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 installedwiring harnesses should be routed to maximize the distance from the control system wiring harness to avoidinductive 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 testingis 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 of4 individual #14 AWG wires capable of a continuous duty load of 30 Amperes at 9 volts DC. Recommended fusingis 10 Amperes for each wire for a total of 40 amperes. The four required unswitched positive battery connectionsare terminals 48, 52, 53 and 55.

Caterpillar prefers the circuit protection be located in the cab if possible. On vehicle documentation for the circuitprotection 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 thisvoltage level the engine will draw up to 30 amperes. Fusing the unswitched battery wiring with less than the statedfusing recommendation of 40 Amperes can result in blown fuses and an unexpected engine shutdown due to afailed vehicle charging system.

In addition to suppressing inductive loads, powering the ECM on a dedicated fused circuit will reduce the possibilityof degraded control system performance due to voltage transients. No additional loads should be connectedbetween 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 thenreturns 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 isprotected 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:

**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 disconnectswitch, open the switch.

3. Clamp the ground cable of the welder to the component that will be welded. Place the clamp as close aspossible to the weld.

4. Protect any wiring harnesses from welding debris and spatter. Use proper welding procedures in order to weldthe materials.

NOTICE

DO NOT use electrical components in order to ground the welder. Do not use the ECM or sensors or anyother electronic component in order to ground the welder. Clamp the ground cable for the welder to thecomponent that will be welded.

Place that clamp as close as possible to the weld.This will reduce the possibility of damage to thebearings of the drive train, hydraulic components, ground straps, and other components of the vehicle.

5.5 OEM Harness Routing

Routing of the harness should insure connector seals are not stressed because the harness curvature istoo close to the connector. This applies to routing of OEM lines on or near the engine harness as well as theOEM ECM Connector.

The following graphic illustrates the problem if the harness curvature is too close to the connector. When this occursthe connector seal is stretched away from the wire, providing an opening for moisture entry. The wire should exitperpendicular to the connector before curving as necessary for routing. The harness bundle should have a bendradius greater than twice the harness diameter. This routing practice will also ensure the harness is not pulled tootightly 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.

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

6.0 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensors

The accelerator pedal position sensor converts the mechanical accelerator pedal position into an electrical signalfor 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 SafetyStandard 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 needfor accelerator pedal linkages and OEM adjustments. These sensors are designed to operate from the ECM + 8Vsupply. The 204-7949 (32 inch [81 cm] harness with Deutsch connector), 204-7950 (6 inch [15 cm] harness withDeutsch connector), and the 204-7951 (6 inch [15 cm] harness with Packard connector) use the same sensor buthave different connectors or pigtail lengths as described.

6.1 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Electrical Specifications

The sensor output is a constant frequency signal whose pulse width (duty cycle) varies with accelerator pedalposition. The Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal is expressed as a percentage (percent duty cycle) asshown in Figure 21.

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 bythe OEM. The OEM must insure that pedals supplied by the pedal manufacturer meet the following specificationfor sensor output duty cycle.

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 Idlethrottle positions each time the ECM is powered. The ECM initially assumes 22 percent duty cycle is low idleand 75 percent duty cycle is high idle. As a result, the Throttle Position Status may reach 100 percent well beforethe accelerator pedal is fully depressed. This is normal operation and will continue until the ECM learns the limitsof the low and high idle stops. Following some cycling of the accelerator pedal from the low to the high idlepositions, the ECM will adjust its calibration automatically, provided the high idle stop position is within the75 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 Statusto 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 pointsfor engine operation. As the ECM learns the physical limits, the range is expanded as long as it is within the valuesspecified above. If the Duty Cycle value goes outside of the expected range, a diagnostic code will be activated.

NOTE: There is no direct correlation between the Sensor Duty Cycle value and a Desired Engine RPM. Forexample, 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 PositionSensor (+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. TheECM supplied +8V, AP Sensor/Switch Sensor Common, and Accelerator Pedal Position wiring must be connectedto 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/SwitchSensor Common must be connected to the ECM at the OEM connector (P1 terminal-5) via a dedicated return line.

Connector terminal assignments are as follows:

6.6 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor for Remote PTO Applications

Caterpillar recommends the 161-8906 accelerator pedal position sensor for remote PTO applications. The sensorprovides the same type of signal as the 204-7949, 204-7950, and the 204-7951 sensors, but requires batteryvoltage (12 or 24 volt systems) to operate. This Sensor must NOT be connected to the +8V supply intendedfor 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 (contactthe vehicle OEM for parts) or a Caterpillar 107-2281 PTO Accelerator Assembly. The PTO Accelerator Assemblydoes not include a handle. It may be used in applications where a mechanical linkage is required. The acceleratorposition sensor mounts directly to the PTO Accelerator Assembly and does not require additional sensor calibration.

Figure 26

6.6.3 Remote Accelerator Position Sensor Assemblies

Two Remote Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Assembly packages are available from Caterpillar that include the161-8906 sensor and mounting hardware. The 134-0597 assembly provides the 161-8906 sensor mounted to acontrol 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 positionupon engine start up, in order for Remote Throttle control to be provided. If the engine is started with the PTOSwitch ON and the Remote Throttle at a position above Low Idle, the engine will be limited to Low Idle until theThrottle is cycled to the low idle position.

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 toprevent 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 detectingspeed 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 sourceshould be a rigid chopper wheel immune to noise inducing vibration. Caterpillar does not recommend use of lessrigid 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 speedthrough a system that uses a cable linkage such as a mechanical speedometer drive to the transmission outputshaft. The cable will tend to wind up, causing opposing ends to deviate erratically from each other. This twistingresults in erratic fluctuations in the vehicle speed signal, causing cruise control/PTO and Vehicle Speed Limitmalfunctions.

Caterpillar will accept a vehicle speed from the SAE J1939 Data Link. Caterpillar will not accept vehicle speed fromthe 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 withSAE 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.

Page 39: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

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 variationin magnetic flux. Output voltage from the sensor at the ECM (at connector P1 terminals 32 and 33) should not beless than 0.70 Volts peak to peak (referenced to the ECM connector battery terminals) when vehicle speed isgreater than 2 mph. The ECM Vehicle Speed Input can withstand up to a 100 Volt peak-to-peak input signal. Twistedpair wiring should be used to connect the vehicle speed sensor to the ECM. Caterpillar recommends a minimum ofone twist per inch.

7.3 Passive Magnetic Vehicle Speed Circuit Options

Option 1 – One Single Coil Speed Sensor

One single coil speed sensor with the ECM Speedometer output supplying the speedometer input signal.

Wiring Diagram 4 - Vehicle Speed Circuit Using Two Single Coil Vehicle Speed Sensors

7.4 Dual Coil Speed Sensor

Dual coil magnetic speed sensors are not recommended because of the increased risk of electrical noise couplinginto the engine control vehicle speed circuit. Ground noise from the circuit connected to the speedometer groundwill 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. Forthese transmissions follow guidelines indicated below. When a single ended signal is used, a signal with amplitudegreater 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 potentialas the ECM ground reference. Improper grounding may result in lost or intermittent vehicle speed signals.

Wiring Diagram 5 - Vehicle Speed Circuit with Allison Electronic Transmission

7.5.1 Allison Electronic Transmissions

Connect the single ended vehicle speed signal line to the ECM “Vehicle Speed In +” (P1 terminal-32). Leave ECM“Vehicle Speed In -” (P1 terminal-33) unconnected (DO NOT Connect to Ground).

No other devices should be receiving vehicle speed from the Allison Vehicle Speed line providing vehicle speed tothe Caterpillar ECM. Caterpillar recommends using the Caterpillar ECM Speedometer Driver for the speedometersignal or the SAE J1587 Data Link.

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 Unitvia 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 determiningif the transmission is capable of supporting the required message protocol. This feature also requires the necessaryJ1939 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 onthe 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 determiningthe 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 mileVehicle 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 theJ1939 data link. The ABS must be capable of supporting the J1939 High Resolution Wheel Speed BroadcastMessage (PGN 65,134 Byte 5-8), which provides wheel speed from the two rear wheels. The OEM is responsiblefor determining if the ABS is capable of supporting the required message protocol. This feature also requires thenecessary 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 tirerevolutions 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 becustomer programmed to provide an output between 12.0 to 500.0 pulses per revolution. The Speedometer Outputprovides 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 speedsignal from an OEM installed sensor or electronic vehicle speed source, and scales the signal for the speedometeroutput. The ECM can also receive information over the J1939 data link from a transmission ECU broadcast, in orderto calculate vehicle speed for the speedometer output. A speedometer may also be driven from the SAE J1587Data 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/TimingSensor 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).

Wiring Diagram 6 - Speedometer and Tachometer Circuits

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 squarewaves with an amplitude (unloaded) of ±9 Volts. The amplitude of the signals will be ±5 Volts or greater whenthe 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 forthe tachometer) for those speedometers or tachometers requiring two signal lines. Connect either one of thetwo output lines from the ECM for speedometers or tachometers with a single input terminal. Leave the remainingline unconnected. When the control senses zero vehicle or engine speed, the driver signals will provide thefollowing output voltages (unloaded).

The output signal for the speedometer is 30,000 pulses per mile, and for the tachometer the signal isprogrammable from 2.0 – 500.0 ppr (pulses per revolution, selectable in 0.1 increments through a CustomerParameter). Note that Caterpillar still provides a threaded hole in the flywheel housing for a magnetic enginespeed sensor. Caterpillar requires twisted pair wiring if both signal connections from the ECM to the speedometeror tachometer are made. This is to prevent radiated electrical noise problems. Cab grounding of the speedometeris 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 regardingsimultaneous connection, or connection of additional devices to these drivers contact Caterpillar. Caterpillarrequests device specifications, a sample of the intended additional device, a connection diagram for vehicleinstallation, 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 thecustomer programmable Vehicle Speed Calibration parameter. It is then scaled for the speedometer driverat 30,000 pulses per mile. The most likely source of error for the output signal is incorrectly programmingthe 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 µsec.

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 µsec.

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 Parameterprogramming. The Check Engine Lamp is the only required lamp. The Check Engine Lamp is a yellow lamp thatindicates an active diagnostic code or alerts the driver to impending idle/PTO shutdown. An optional Warning Lampis required for the Engine Monitoring feature. The Warning Lamp indicates an active problem with one of the monitoredconditions 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 WarningLamp for all monitored conditions, or discrete lamps for each monitored condition. If the Engine Monitoring Lampsparameter is programmed to Warning Lamp, then J1/P1 terminal-29 is used for connection of a single WarningLamp. If the Engine Monitoring Lamps parameter is programmed to Option 1, then J1/P1 terminal-29 is used toconnect a Low Oil Pressure Warning Lamp and J1/P1 terminal-31 is used to connect a High Coolant TemperatureLamp. If an optional Coolant Level Sensor is also installed (Coolant Level Sensor parameter programmed to 4-Pinor 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. Choosingthis option changes J1/P1: 29 to a High Coolant Temperature Lamp. The other lamp drivers are not affectedby choosing this option.

If a Coolant Level Sensor is not installed (Coolant Level Sensor parameter programmed to No) thenJ1/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 drivers—the ECM provides a path to ground to activate the load. Caterpillar does notrequest dedicated circuit protection for this circuit. The engine control has not implemented diagnostic codes forthese circuits.

9.2 Lamp Test

On power up (key ON, engine OFF), the Check Engine Lamp will come ON for five seconds and turn off indicatingthe lamp circuit is functional.

When the engine is first started, the Check Engine Lamp (terminal 28) and the Warning Lamp (terminal 29) willbe 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 systemmalfunction (diagnostic condition) to the driver, for diagnosing control system component failures, and for indicatingthat the Idle Shutdown Timer is in the Driver Alert phase, indicating a pending engine shutdown when the timerexpires. 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 indicatingthe lamp circuit is functional. Any time there is an Active diagnostic code the lamp will flash ON five seconds, blinkoff, flash ON five seconds, blink off, etc.

9.3.1 Viewing Diagnostic Flash Codes

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

9.4 Warning Lamp Operation

Engine Monitoring requires additional OEM installed warning lamp or lamps to alert the driver to an engine problemdetected by the ECM. The Warning Lamp also alerts the driver to the level of action the ECM is taking to respondto the condition. The lamp is ON continuously while the engine is in the warning mode. Warning mode indicates theECM has detected a problem, but the ECM is not altering engine performance to force driver action. The WarningLamp flashes when in the derate mode, indicating the ECM has begun to force driver action and is reducing availablehorsepower and the maximum vehicle speed. During warning and derate the Check Engine Lamp will flashbecause 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 EngineMonitoring Lamps parameter may be programmed to Warning Lamp or to High Coolant Warning Lamp. Whenprogrammed to Warning Lamp, the output operates as already described. When programmed to High Coolanttemperature Warning Lamp, the output at J1/P1: 29 will be turned On in conjunction when the upper coolanttemperature limit is exceeded.

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 programmedthrough 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 FloatSensor (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 mustbe 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 environmentsfor the coolant level sensor and verify the coolant level sensor will function properly and reliably under those worstcase 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 necessaryto jumper any connector terminals on the OEM connector. The ECM will ignore the coolant level inputs. The vehicleharness 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 appliedwhen mounting.

B. For the liquid present signal, the sensor must be mounted in a position completely immersing the sensingtube and mounting thread.

C. For the liquid absent signal, the sensor must be mounted in a position with no fluid contacting the entiresensing 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.

10.7 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 NormalCoolant Level range, the coolant level State will be Normal. A coolant level fault (111-01 for Low, 111-11 forVery Low, 111-03 for Open & 111-04 for Shorted) will occur if the voltage is not between 0.5 and 2.0 volts for atleast 10 seconds. The Check Engine Lamp will illuminate and an active fault will be broadcast over the J1587 andthe J1939 data links if there is a fault condition present. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level isat 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 operationif 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 NormalCoolant 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 SensorOpen, 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 theJ1587 and the J1939 data links. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and0% 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 thehysteresis 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 hysteresiszones 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 thehysteresis 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 theJ1587 and the J1939 data links. The J1939 message will indicate that the coolant level is at 50% for Low and0% for Very Low.

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 andEngine Running. This operation is based on measured engine temperatures and affected by operational conditionsincluding vehicle speed and service brake pedal position. The Inlet Air Heater will be disabled (engine running ornot) 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 andwill 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 beforeapplying 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 breakingtorque wrench such as the Mountz TLS-1360. CAUTION: Not meeting the specified torque limit may causeelectrical arcing due to a mechanical failure of the relay stud or a loose connection.

A boot must be installed on the Battery connection to the Inlet Air Heater Relay to help prevent electricalarcing. 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. Cautionmust be taken to prevent the terminal from causing a short to chassis ground. Caterpillar recommends that theterminal ring connection to the battery supply wire should be made with a bare terminal and then insulated usinga 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 normallybe installed at the operator station. The Inlet Air Heater Lamp can be connected in parallel with the Caterpillarinstalled 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 aPackard (12162000) Metri-pack 150 Series Receptacle (J648). A connector cap is installed on the plug to seal theconnection until the Inlet Air Heater Lamp is connected. The ECM Inlet Air Heater driver provides a ground pathwhen the heater should be ON (low side driver sinking 1.5 A maximum).

11.4 ECM Power Up and Preheat Cycle

If the SUM of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature is less than 136°F or 40°C and theengine is being operated below 5500 feet (1678 meters) of elevation, the ECM will turn the Inlet Air Heater relayoutput 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 than160°F or 53°C 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 getthe correct conversion of the summed value in Fahrenheit, each temperature must first be converted to Fahrenheitand 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 attemptsto start the engine before the 30 second preheat cycle ends, the ECM will continue to control the Heater duringengine 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 AirTemperature is less than 136°F or 40°C 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 above5500 feet (1678 meters) the SUM of the Coolant Temperature and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature must only beless than 160°F or 53°C 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 theInlet 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 maximumof 13 minutes. During the On/Off cycle mode, the Heater is cycled ON and OFF for ten seconds. The Inlet AirHeater will turn OFF anytime the SUM of the Inlet Manifold Air Temperature and Coolant Temperature exceeds126°F or 40°C if the engine is being operated below 5500 feet (1678 meters) of elevation. If the engine is beingoperated at elevations higher than 5500 feet (1678 meters), the Heater will turn OFF anytime the SUM of the InletManifold Air Temperature and Coolant Temperature exceeds 178°F or 63°C.

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 50°F (10°C). For an Active Inlet ManifoldAir Temperature Sensor Diagnostic, the Heater will activate if Coolant Temperature is less than 104°F (40°C).

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 Automaticand the inlet air temperature is below 0 Deg C. The Inlet Air Heater will not be activated if the Starting Aid circuit isactivated. When the Starting Aid Output is programmed to Automatic, the Inlet Air Heater will not be activated untilthe engine is running and the starting Aid output has been turned off for 5 seconds.

The ECM has 18 switch inputs available for feature interaction. There are 15 Switch To Input Sensor Commoninputs 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 notcorrode or oxidize. Gold plated or silver alloy contacts are recommended. Normal current draw through the switchesby the control will not exceed 6.5 mA.

Contact chatter and momentary opening or closing should not exceed 100 milliseconds in duration. The switchesshould 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 harnessis open circuited. Closure of an OEM installed switch must short circuit the input to a dedicated Sensor Commonconnection 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 voltagedrops, and wiring harness voltage drops must be such that a switch closure results in less than 0.9 Volts DCbetween 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 betweenthe 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 SensorCommon inputs must use one of the three terminals (J1/P1: 3, 5, or 18). Switch inputs must not use chassisground. Switches must not be Case grounded.

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 Option1, Manual Option 2 or Universal. If the transmission Style parameter is not programmed to one of these options, theclutch 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 hardwiredCheck Engine Lamp. The Diagnostic Enable parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 46 for this feature tofunction. A momentary normally open switch is required. The ECM will begin flashing and continue to flash outcodes while this switch is closed.

Wiring Diagram 11 - Diagnostic Enable Circuit

OEM provided and installed components required:

1) Normally open momentary switch.

2) Hardwired Check Engine Lamp

Customer Parameter programming required:

1) Diagnostic Enable programmed to J1/P1:46

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 TwoSpeed Axle Switch must be programmed to J1/P1: 6 (Input #6). A normally open switch is required. When a two-speed axle is used, the change in gear ratios from the high-speed range to the low speed range alters thecalibration of the vehicle speed signal. With this system, the ECM will automatically adjust the vehicle speedcalibration when the switch is ON. This will ensure an ECM driven speedometer and ECM stored informationcorrectly reflect the actual vehicle speed. The Low Speed Range Axle Ratio and High Speed Range Axle Ratiomust be programmed as well. When the switch is closed between the ECM terminals 16 and 5, the ECM will usethe following equation to calculate the actual vehicle speed:

High Speed Range AxleLow Speed Range Axle Ratio

X calculated vehicle speed = actual vehicle speed

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 speedcalibration (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 vehiclespeed will reflect the adjustment. If Two Speed Axle Switch is not programmed to J1/P1: 6, the ECM does not useeither 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.

2) Fast Idle RPM #1.

3) Fast Idle RPM #2 (optional).

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 Idleand Fast Idle features will ignore service brake and clutch switch inputs. If this switch is in the closed position whenthe 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 enginediagnostic induced engine shutdown. The purpose of the Shutdown Override Switch is to allow an operator tooverride the impending engine shutdown to allow the operator to move the vehicle to a more safe location. Thisfeature 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 activediagnostic code for Very Low Engine Oil Pressure, Very low Coolant Level or Very High Engine CoolantTemperature. When one of these Diagnostics is active, the Warning Lamp, or the dedicated lamps defined bythe Warning Lamp option of “Option 1”, will start to flash. The flashing lamp indicates that the engine power isbeing 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 Timerwill start to countdown from 30 seconds. If the Shutdown Override Switch is opened and closed again before theengine has turned the fuel injectors Off, the timer will reset for another 30 seconds. Once the timer has counteddown to zero and the fuel injectors have been disabled, the engine will shut down regardless of the position ofthe 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 FactoryPasswords to clear from the ECM’s memory.

12.4 Switch-to-Battery Electrical Specifications

Contact plating should not corrode or oxidize. Gold plated or silver alloy contacts are recommended. Normal currentdraw through the Input #12 and Input #13 by the control is 6.0 mA at 12 Volts DC. Normal current draw through theIgnition 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 switchesshould 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 OEMinstalled 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 theECM 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 DCbetween the control input and the ECM negative battery connection.

12.4.2 Switch-to-Battery Circuit Protection

These circuits do not require dedicated circuit protection.

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 tovehicle battery (Ignition Key Switch ON), the ECM will be powered. The ECM will then control the injectors allowingthe 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.

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 ofbroadcasting the status via the J1939 data link. The J1939 option can be used to replace the hardwired switch inputto the ECM. This option can only be used if the Transmission is capable of supporting the required J1939 messageprotocol, 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 orByte 7 – Current Range) message to be compatible. If the message is not received, the ECM will assume thetransmission 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 theneutral switch if an automatic transmission is used.

13.1.2 Set/Resume Switch

The Set/Resume switch is normally a three-position switch biased to the Off position. The ECM inputs areCustomer programmable determining the Accel/Decel function of the Set and the Resume input. The factory defaultis Set/Accel and Resume/Decel.

The Set/Resume switch is normally a three-position switch biased to the off (center) position. The CustomerProgrammable parameter “Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration” is used to determine which switch contact isassociated 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 speedthat the engine will attempt to maintain while normal cruise control conditions are met. The switches used with theService 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 Switchor 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 theignition switch is turned off.

With a “set” speed established, the vehicle “set” speed may be “bumped” (increased or decreased) by toggling theSet 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 theSet or Resume switch closed for more than 1.5 seconds. The vehicle “set” speed will change by one mph/sec whilethe 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 usedto increase vehicle speed. To make this vehicle speed the new “set” speed, the Set switch must be closed for atleast 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 betoggled to reactivate Cruise Control. This includes the Cruise On/Off switch as a reason for the “kick out”. Oncereactivated, 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 toggledto increase (or decrease depending on the configuration of the Set/Accel Resume/Decel parameter) the currentCruise 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 andEngine Speed Control System will automatically elevate engine idle to the engine RPM specified in the “BatteryMonitor & Low Idle Engine Speed” parameter in order to maintain ideal battery system voltage. This feature is usedto promote additional battery life. The engine idle will only be increased if the vehicle is stopped, the transmissionis out of gear and neither the clutch nor the brake pedal are depressed. If these conditions are not met, the engineidle 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 Voltsfor a 24 Volt system. The engine will stay at this idle speed for 5 minutes (unless interrupted). At the end of 5 minutesthe engine will return to low idle or a previously established elevated idle speed. If the battery voltage is still belowthe 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 Idleis available if the engine is not in Cold Mode, Smart Idle (battery voltage induced) is not engaged, Fast Idle is notenabled, 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 VehicleSpeed 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 rpmmay be bumped or ramped by using the Cruise Control Set/Resume switch inputs. The amount of engine rpmchange for a “bump” is determined by the Idle/PTO RPM Bump Rate parameter. The Idle/PTO Bump RPM Rateis programmable from 5 to 1000 RPM (default is 20 RPM). The engine rpm “ramp” value is determined by theIdle/PTO Engine Speed Ramp Rate parameter. The Idle/PTO Engine Speed Ramp Rate parameter is programmablefrom 5 to 1000 RPM/sec (default is 50 RPM/sec). When the engine speed is “bumped” the engine will ramp to thenew rpm at the programmed “ramp rate”.

The Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration parameter programming will determine the direction of the engine rpmbump or ramp. When programmed to Set/Accel – Resume /Decel, the engine rpm will increase with the Set switchand Decrease with the Resume Switch. When programmed to Set/Decel – Resume /Accel, the engine rpm willdecrease 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 programmedIdle RPM Limit. Once an idle speed has been “set”, the engine speed may be bumped or ramped using theSet/Resume switches. Pressing and holding the Set or Resume switch will establish the engine’s current rpm as the“set” rpm and then after 1 second the engine will ramp at the programmed rate in the direction of the programmedsetting for Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration. The last idle “set” rpm will stay in the ECM’s memory until the keyswitch has been turned Off.

With a “set” idle rpm, pressing an holding the (Set or Resume) /Accel Switch for less than one second will causethe engine rpm to “bump” or increase by the programmed Idle/PTO Bump RPM value. This “bump” process can berepeated 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 causethe engine rpm to “bump” or decrease by the programmed Idle/PTO Bump RPM value. This “bump” process canbe 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 theengine to ramp at the programmed rate in the direction of the programmed setting for Cruise/Idle/PTO SwitchConfiguration. The engine rpm will ramp as long as the switch is held or until the engine reaches the programmed

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDE

70 Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____

Page 71: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

Idle RPM Limit or the programmed Low Idle. Releasing the Set or Resume switch while the engine rpm is rampingwill 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 forKickout 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 programmablevehicle speed limit. When Kicked Out, the “set” rpm remains in memory but the engine will return to the programmedlow idle rpm. Pressing on the Service Brake or Clutch, shifting the transmission into gear, turning the PTO SwitchOn 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 ElevatedIdle mode, the Ignore Brake/Clutch switch input can be used. With this switch enabled, the Service Brake andClutch 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 theinput 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 messagesreceived from the J1939 data link. Individual switch input parameters must be programmed to receive messagesfrom either the Cab Controller (source address 49, $31), the Body Controller (source address 33, $21) or theInstrument Cluster (source address 23, $17). All programmed switch inputs require that the status of the switchbe broadcast as On or Off when the key switch is On. Not broadcasting a switch status message will result in adiagnostic code to be active and the Check Engine lamp will be enabled.

15.1 Cruise Switch Inputs

15.1.1 Cruise Control On/Off Switch

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 controlif 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/Offswitch is on and all other conditions are met (Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause) an On/Off transitionof the Set switch will activate cruise and set the cruise target speed to the actual vehicle speed. As long as Cruisestays active, any other On/Off, Off/On or hold transition of the Set switch will be ignored. The Set switch is only usedto 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 CruiseOn/Off switch is on and all other conditions are met (Veh spd, Clutch, Brake, Neutral, Cruise Pause) an On/Offtransition of the Resume switch will activate cruise. If, since the last ECM power up, cruise control was never activeand the Resume switch goes from On/Off, the cruise target speed will be set to the actual veh spd. But if Cruisewas active before, the Cruise Target Speed will be set to the last Cruise Set Speed, which will be lost during anECM power cycle. As long as Cruise stays active, any other On/Off, Off/On or hold transition of the resume switchwill 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 functionalityfor 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 Accelswitch is released (On/Off) the cruise target speed will be set to the current veh spd. If the holding time after theOff/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.

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 functionalityfor 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 Decelswitch is released (On/Off) the cruise target speed will be set to the current veh spd. If the holding time after theOff/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 engagedif the switch is turned. The switch is independent from the Ignore Brake/Clutch switch status and it will not affect anytimer functionality (Idle Shutdown and PTO Shutdown). This switch will act like the service brake or clutch switchescan cause PTO or Extended Idle to kick out. If in the ON position, this switch will prevent the engine from enteringinto 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 tohardwired 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 tohardwired 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 orJ1939 Instrument Cluster. When the received message => 95.2% (switch ON), the ECM will turn J1/P1: 11 OFFwhich will turn the fan ON. When the received message <= 94.8%, the ECM will control the fan according to engineconditions.

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 vehicleoperating 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 BodyController or J1939 Instrument Cluster. When programmed to one of the J1939 inputs the received messagemust be => 95.2%, before the Engine Exhaust Brake can be enabled.

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 BodyController or J1939 Instrument Cluster. When programmed to one of the J1939 inputs and the ECM receives anOn/ Off message transition, the ECM will enter into Diagnostic Mode and will cause the hardwired Check EngineLamp 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 Gearor Byte 7 – Current Range) message to be compatible. Selected gear and Actual Gear must be 0 when thetransmission is in Neutral. If the message is not received, the ECM will assume the transmission to be in gear.

16.0 Dedicated PTO Operation

PTO operation is very flexible and can be programmed to take advantage of a variety of switch and throttle inputoptions. Engine speed can be controlled to maintain a Set Speed from Low to High Idle. There are programmableset points and limits for engine RPM. There are programmable Kickout limits that can be set to return the engineto 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 bodybuilder 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 inthis document. Electrical specifications for the remote accelerator pedal position sensor are described in Section 6of 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 Commonconnection for PTO additions. Caterpillar recommends this connection be reserved for components connected tothe engine to control engine speed for PTO applications only. In the event that additional sensor or switch returnsare 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 connectedto 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 thisswitch 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 isprogrammed to J12/P1: 30 (default is None) and the PTO Switch is closed, the lamp will turn On. J1/P1: 30 is alow side driver. This lamp should be located where the operator will see it. For remote PTO applications, a cab andremote lamp should be installed This lamp will flash when the PTO Timer is within the 90 seconds of shutting theengine down. If another feature is using this output (Change Oil Lamp or Warning Lamp Option 1) then a lamp canbe wired to a multiple pole PTO ON/OFF switch.

Wiring Diagram 18 - Optional PTO On Lamp circuit

16.5 PTO Active Output

The PTO Active Output parameter is available for controlling an output when the engine is actively in PTO Mode.Active means that PTO is enabled and is actively controlling engine speed. This battery voltage output is availableat J1/P1: 19 when PTO Active Output is programmed to J1/P1: 19 (default is None). This High Side Driver has acurrent capability of up to 1.0 Amperes.

Wiring Diagram 19 - PTO Active Output Circuit

16.6 PTO Engine Shutdown Switch

A PTO Engine Shutdown Switch input is available for shutting down the engine while in PTO Mode. Severalconditions must be met before the engine will shut down.

1) The customer parameter “PTO configuration” has been programmed to either Cab Switches, Remote Switchesor Remote Throttle, and

2) If: PTO Engine Shutdown Switch has been programmed to either J1 PIN 7 or PIN 23, and

3) If: PTO Switch is in the ON (input grounded) position and PTO is active, and

4) If: PTO Engine Shutdown Switch is in the ON (input floating) position for 120 milliseconds, and

5) If: PTO Engine Shutdown Short Circuit (186-04) is not active, and

6) If: Vehicle Speed = zero and vehicle speed fault is not active

If the vehicle speed is not equal to zero or if there is an active vehicle speed fault, the engine will go to Low Idle.The engine will not shut down when the vehicle speed returns to zero. The ECM will log an Emergency PTOShutdown Event when the PTO Engine Shutdown Switch is pressed.

1) None

16.7 Maximum PTO Enable Speed

The Maximum PTO Enable Speed parameter may be programmed to prevent the engine from entering PTO modewhen the engine RPM is too high. The engine will not be in PTO mode, the PTO Active Output will remain OFF andthe PTO On Lamp will FLASH until the engine RPM is at or below the programmed limit. With the PTO mode OnSwitch in the ON position, once the engine drops below this limit the engine will enter PTO mode. Once in PTOmode 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 whenthis 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 inPTO mode. Increasing vehicle speed past this limit will result in the engine speed being reduced in order tomaintain 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 parameterrequires use of the ECM cooling fan circuit. The ECM will signal the cooling fan to continuous operation when thePTO On/Off circuit is ON to reduce changes in load while being used for dedicated PTO applications. Setting thisparameter 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, RemoteSwitches, or Remote Throttle before this parameter can be programmed. The Fan Control Type parameter mustnot 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 ActiveOutput, at a desired engine speed. The engine will ramp to the desired programmed speed before the PTO ActiveOutput is turned ON. Once engine speed has reached the programmed value – 100 rpm, the PTO Active Outputwill 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 theengine. 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 toinsure the engine is put in PTO mode only when the vehicle is ready and prepared for PTO operation. It is theresponsibility 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 vocationalapplications. This connector should provide wiring from the ECM to a connector that is easily located and identifiedon the vehicle. Caterpillar recommends the circuits listed in the following table be provided at this connector.

Additional circuits such as positive and negative battery connections should also be considered but these circuitsmust be separate from the ECM battery circuits.

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 inposition or toggled. The two options are Set-Accel, Resume – Decel or Set -Decel, Resume-Accel. This appliesto cruise control, idle, and PTO modes of operation. If any PTO Engine RPM Set Speeds are programmed, theSet 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 Clusteror Cab Controller this switch will act like the service brake or clutch switches for causing the PTO Mode tokickout. If in the ON position, this switch will prevent the engine from entering into PTO mode. There is noprogrammable parameter for ignoring this switch.

3) PTO Kickout Vehicle Speed Limit – determines the vehicle speed operating range of the PTO inputs. If vehiclespeed exceeds this limit the engine will either not allow an engine speed to be set, or disengage a set PTOspeed. The PTO On/Off circuit has priority over Cruise Control On/Off and Fast Idle. A Vehicle Speed Inputmust 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 switchinputs and not kickout of PTO mode if any of the switches are activated. The Ignore Brake/Clutch/NeutralSwitch 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 programmedPTO 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 istoggled in the Accel/Decel position. If a PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has been programmed this parameterapplies to Idle only, where engine speed is set using the cruise control On/Off circuit. If PTO Engine RPM SetSpeed has not been programmed this parameter applies to engine speed control using the cruise controlOn/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 samevalue 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 thisparameter 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 abovelow 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 theSet switch again and the engine speed proceeds to the PTO Top Engine Limit. Toggle the Resume switch and theengine speed is reduced to the programmed Set Speed. Toggle the Resume switch again to return the engine toLow Idle.

Program this parameter to the same RPM as the PTO Top Engine Limit if only two discrete engine speedsare desired.

10) PTO to Set Speed – program this parameter only if the application requires the engine speed to ramp up to thePTO 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 toprotect equipment. If programmed to Low Idle, this parameter has the affect of ignoring/disabling theaccelerator pedal position sensor when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON.

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDE

82 Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____

Page 83: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

If programmed to PTO TEL the accelerator pedal position sensor can be used to control the engine speed up to theprogrammed 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 lowerthan rated torque limit is desired to protect equipment used for PTO operation. This limit applies whenever theTorque Limit switch is ON.

13) Torque Limit Switch – must be programmed to J1/P1: 7 or J1/P1:23 and a switch must be installedcorresponding 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 canbe attained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A mustbe 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 beattained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B mustbe programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/ P1:23 (Input #4 or Input #19) and an additional switch installed for thisfeature to function.

16) PTO Shutdown Time – This parameter is programmable between 3 to 1440 minutes (a value of 0 turns thisfeature Off). This parameter sets the duration of time (in minutes) that engine will operate, with the PTO On/Offcircuit 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 Continuouswhile in PTO Mode. The Fan Control Type parameter must be programmed to other than None.

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 inthe operator station and one at the Remote PTO control location. The ECM will ignore the Cab controls (CruiseSwitches, service brake, etc.) when PTO is On. The PTO Set/Resume switches can be used to Bump and Rampengine 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: thedisabling 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 circuitis ON.

1) Cruise/Idle/PTO Switch Configuration – only affects Remote Switches if a Remote Set and Remote Resumeare installed, and PTO Set Speeds are not programmed. If PTO Set Speeds are programmed, the PTO Set isalways 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 vehiclespeed exceeds this limit the engine will either not allow an engine speed to be set, or disengage a set PTOspeed. The PTO On/Off circuit has priority over Fast Idle and Cruise Control On/Off circuits. The PTO SwitchOn 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”, shouldthe Maximum PTO Vehicle Speed be programmed to a value higher than the Vehicle Speed Limit. A VehicleSpeed 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 Kickoutwhen the limit is reached. Instead, it allows the engine to remain in PTO Mode, but limits engine speed to providevehicle speed limiting. If the PTO Vehicle Speed Limit is programmed to a lower value than the Maximum PTOVehicle 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 andIdle engine speed control.

5) Idle/PTO Bump RPM – determines the amount of rpm increase/decrease if a PTO Set/Resume switch istoggled in the Accel/ Decel position. If a PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has been programmed this parameterdoes 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 abovelow 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 speedsabove idle. With the PTO circuit ON, toggling the Set switch once advances engine speed to this programmedvalue. 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 thePTO 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 RemoteSwitches- 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 lowerthan rated torque limit is desired to protect equipment used for PTO operation. This limit applies whenever theTorque Limit Switch is ON.

11) Torque Limit Switch – must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/P1:23 and a switch must be installedcorresponding 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 beattained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A mustbe programmed to J1/P1:46 (Input #7) and an additional switch installed for this feature to function.

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDE

Caterpillar Pub # LEBT2835-02________C7 & C9 ACERT Truck Engines________EPA 2004_____ 85

Page 86: C7-C9 Electrical Electronic Guide

13) PTO Engine RPM Set Speed B – This parameter can be programmed to a desired set speed that can beattained by turning on a dedicated switch during PTO operation. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B must beprogrammed to J1/P1:7 or J1/ P1:23 (Input #4 or Input #19) and an additional switch installed for this featureto function.

14) PTO Shutdown Time – This parameter is programmable between 3 to 1440 minutes (a value of 0 turns off thisfeature). This parameter sets the duration of time (in minutes) that engine will operate, with the PTO On/Offcircuit 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 Continuouswhile 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 dedicatedPTO throttle. This throttle MUST be connected at all times. Disconnecting this throttle will result in diagnosticscodes and the Check Engine Lamp will be On. The Remote PTO Set/Resume switches are not required for thisconfiguration. 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 tominimum before engine will respond. The PTO Set and Resume switches can be used to Bump and Ramp enginespeed. The remote throttle can raise engine speed above a “Set Speed”.

2) PTO Vehicle Speed Limit – determines the vehicle speed operating range of the PTO inputs. If vehicle speedexceeds 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 PTOOn/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 programmedPTO 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 istoggled in the Accel/Decel position. For the Remote Throttle configuration this parameter applies to enginespeed control using the cruise control On/Off and PTO On/Off circuit.

J1/P1: 12 Output #3 can be used for an Engine Exhaust Brake

J1/P1: 13 (Output #4) can be used for an Engine Running Output

17.1 Programmable Output Electrical Specifications

Electrical characteristics of the high side drivers are as follows:

This output can be connected to the coil side of a relay or directly to a solenoid (1.5 Amps maximum). If connectedto a relay, the contact side of the relay should be connected to “+Battery” and the appropriate solenoid. Regardlessif the output is used to connect to a solenoid or relay coil, Caterpillar recommends transient suppression be usedon the inductive load in addition to the ECM internal protection. Circuit protection for the contact side of the relayand its grounding (when powering a relay) is left to the OEM’s discretion. Do not ground the relay or solenoid tothe ECM Sensor Common connections.

17.2 Starting Aid OutputA Starting Aid Output parameter is available to connect to a relay and/or solenoid to control a Continuous FlowStarting Aid System. The Starting Aid Output parameter can be programmed to use J1/P1: 10 (Output #2) byprogramming 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 faultcondition exists with the Intake Manifold Air Temperature sensor circuit, the Intake Manifold Air Temperature Sensorreading will be used. If the temperature reading is below 0°C (32°F) 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 startsor a condition occurs that prevents fuel from being injected, the Staring Aid Output will be disabled.

17.3.1 Operation with the Cruise Control On/Off Switch in the OFF position

The exhaust brake output is enabled under the following conditions:

1) Engine rpm is greater than 1000 rpm.

2) Driver’s 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 withthe service brakes applied, allowing the engine to coast with no braking after they are released. Programmingthe Exhaust Brake Mode parameter to “LATCH” allows braking with the service brakes applied and keeps theexhaust brake ON after the service brakes are released (until rpm drops below 900 rpm or the driver pressesthe accelerator or clutch pedal). Programming the Exhaust Brake Mode parameter to “MANUAL” provides identicaloperation whether the cruise On/Off switch is ON or OFF (but not while in cruise control).

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 Cruiseparameter 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 Brakein Cruise option requires the optional Exhaust Brake Switch to be in the ON position. When the Auto Retarder InCruise parameter is programmed to “0”, the feature is disabled.

Some automatic transmissions will down shift when the engine retarder engages. Caterpillar recommends that theAuto Retarder In Cruise parameter value be set to a minimum of “5 mph” reduce transmission down shifting withthe 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 attainingand 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 toJ1/P1:16 or a J1939 Data Link based source), the engine will ramp to the programmed Warm Up Mode Idle Speedand 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)

17.3.5 Engine Exhaust Brake and Automatic Transmissions

Automatic transmissions will utilize the exhaust brake status during a downshift when the exhaust brake isengaged. This exhaust brake status may come from the engine J1939 broadcast, or from a signal provided from theretarder circuit by chassis wiring. Consequently the integration of the engine, transmission, and chassis wiring mustbe taken into account when configuring the transmission and engine. Below are tables, which illustrate the requiredengine programming, based on the chassis and transmission configuration.

1) Chassis: Exhaust Brake Not Installed

Transmission-to-retarder integration: Any

2) Chassis: Exhaust Brake Installed

Transmission-to-retarder integration: Transmission controller has input signal from engine ECM via chassis wiring

3) Chassis: Exhaust Brake Installed

Transmission-to-retarder integration: Transmission uses J1939 ERC #1 message from the engine (not from theengine ECM retarder circuit).

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 relayor solenoid. This output can be used to disable the starter or other devices when the engine is running. A normallyclosed relay is recommended so that cranking can be achieved immediately at power up. During cranking, theECM will energize the relay once the engine speed reaches 50 rpm below low idle (700-800 rpm). A normallyclosed relay is recommended because the ECM could see insufficient battery voltage during cranking, preventingthe ECM from providing sufficient battery voltage to energize the relay.

1) Engine Running Output Solenoid or Relay.

Customer Parameter programming required:

2) None.

18.0 Transmissions

Caterpillar C7 and C9 engines can be connected to a variety of transmissions. The following table lists the availabletransmission style options and the required switch inputs for each option. Correct programming and switch wiring isrequired to provide proper cruise control, PTO, and Fast Idle operation.

*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 willrespond to transmission requests for speed and torque limiting. Transmissions can request that the engine engagethe auxiliary brake to assist in shifting or prevent shift cycling. The transmission may request that the engine’sauxiliary 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 clutchis not engaged. If the engine is equipped with an Exhaust Brake the Engine Exhaust Brake Switch parameter mustbe programmed to J1/P1:16 or one of the J1939 sourced inputs. A physical switch does not have to be installed asan 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 engineload 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

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 transmissionshifting. 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 “fullthrottle” 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), andHigh (60% ON/45% OFF). The High setting is the default setting, which will cause the transmission to remain ina lower gear longer (higher engine speed before shift occurs). The Medium setting is a compromise between theDefault and the High setting.

NOTE: Contact Allison Transmissions regarding recommended settings of this parameter for your application.

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 throttlemodulation 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 areFull 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 maintainan 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 maximumallowed engine speed. When in between these limits, the throttle -position will cause the engine to produce powerproportional 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 Governorresponse 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 oris 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 SwitchInput to “None” causes the ECM to assume that the transmission is in gear at all times.

1) Vehicle Speed Input

2) Neutral switch (hardwired switch input or J1939 message)

20.0 Cooling Fan

The ECM provides a programmable parameter, Fan Control Type, and an output terminal, J1/P1: 11, for optionalcooling 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 anelectrical open circuit is the most likely failure mode, Caterpillar recommends a normally open circuit(s). The fancontrol is based on engine coolant temperature, engine retarder operation, intake manifold temperature and enginespeed. Optional inputs can include an A/C compressor pressure switch, operator controlled Fan Override Switchand 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 reducedvoltage levels.

The ECM controlled Cooling Fan may be turned ON with a J1939 based Fan Override Switch message. This allowsthe 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 conditionscause elevated transmission oil temperatures, the transmission can broadcast the J1939 based Fan Overridemessage 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 andPWM options describe the output signal types available at J1:P1: 11.

This output can be connected to the coil side of a relay or directly to a solenoid (if the maximum current draw forthe 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 internalprotection. Circuit protection for the contact side of the relay and its grounding (when powering a relay) is left tothe OEM’s 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 outputcircuit failure such as an open circuit. This requires a relay with normally open contacts (if powering the coil side ofa relay), or a solenoid valve that deactivates the fan when it receives the disable (high) signal. Additional switchingdevices in the circuit should cause an open circuit to turn the fan ON. This circuit is designed to withstand a shortcircuit to “+Battery” voltage and will not be adversely affected if other devices are connected to this line whendirectly driving a solenoid. When driving a relay, connection of other devices to the Cooling Fan Output shouldnot be necessary.

To prevent unnecessary cooling fan cycling due to reduced voltage levels during engine cranking, the ECM turnsthe output OFF (fan ON). Because an electrical open circuit is the most likely failure mode, Caterpillar recommendsa 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 > 207°F (97°C).

4) Active Coolant Temperature Sensor Diagnostic.

5) Inlet Manifold Air Temperature > 190°F (88°C).

6) Inlet Manifold Air Temperature > 163°F (73°C) 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 indicatingthe 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 allthe following circumstances are met.

1) Coolant Sensor Temperature < 196°F (91°C) and Inlet Manifold Air Temperature < 151°F (66°C).

2) The fan has been ON for at least 30 seconds or the programmed A/C Pressure Switch Fan On Time.

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

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 ControlType parameter is programmed to Variable Speed Option S, the Engine Control Module provides a pulse widthmodulated (PWM) signal for open loop control. This output to the Fan Drive Controller (FDC) will vary fan speed inproportion to cooling demand. Any system non-linearity is compensated for by the FDC. The fan control will turn thefan FULL On (100%) during those conditions that require the fan to be On. These conditions include but are notrestricted 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%.

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 itoperates under reduced load with the vehicle stationary for a customer-defined period of time. This feature does notshut off vehicle electrical power.

The Idle Shutdown Timer can be programmed between 1 and 1,440 minutes. The check engine lamp will begin toflash when the Idle Shutdown Timer enters the Driver Alert phase of the Idle Shutdown sequence. The Driver Alertphase is determined by the number of minutes programmed for the Idle Shutdown Timer, during this phase thecheck 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 thirtyseconds 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 ninetyseconds before the programmed time expires.

The operator can move the clutch or service brake during Driver Alert to override the timer. When the timer isoverridden a diagnostic event is logged. The timer will remain in Override until the ECM has detected that thevehicle 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 countingif 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, Automaticoption 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 theengine 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 enginereaches 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 thedata link with a service tool. There is not a diagnostic connector supplied in the engine harness. Caterpillarrequests the vehicle OEM install a diagnostic connector in the engine compartment for those applications wherethe cab diagnostic connector is too far away for practical service of the engine. For an engine compartmentmounted diagnostic connector, Caterpillar recommends grounding the engine data link connector directly to theengine ground stud through a splice into either “-Battery” wire (Connector P1, terminal 65 or 67). It must not begrounded to ECM Sensor Common connections. An example application for an engine compartment installeddiagnostic 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, andcertain transmissions. The ATA (American Trucking Association), SAE J1587/SAE J1708 Data Link is standard onall Caterpillar Truck Engines. The ATA data link can reduce duplication of engine and vehicle sensors by allowingother control systems to share sensor information. The ATA data link is used to communicate with Caterpillar PocketTechnician and Caterpillar Electronic Technician service tools. The ATA data link does not require a CustomerParameter to activate. The data link follows SAE recommended practice J1708 for hardware and SAErecommended 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. Someparameters may affect engine operation in ways an inadequately trained driver does not expect. These parametersmay 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 areassigned 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 valuesfor the parameter and the default value. The parameter value shown in bold is the programmed setting that willdisable a feature.

The tables show values in U.S. (or English) units (miles, mph, quarts), followed by an approximate range for itsmetric (kilometers, km/h, liters) units counterpart. The exact range of the parameter in metric units depends uponthe 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 requiresCustomer Passwords if they have been previously programmed. Once a parameter is locked out, FactoryPasswords 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 theparameter from being changed directly by the customer. This helps vehicle owners encountering problems withoperators obtaining Customer Passwords and tampering with the parameter configuration.

The following Customer Parameters are available for lockout using an Electronic Service Tool or VEPS:

Factory Passwords are also required to change a parameter from “locked” to “unlocked”. If all of the parameters arelocked out, and each one needs to be unlocked, only one Factory Password is required when the ParameterLockout screen is accessed on the Electronic Service Tool.

23.2 Selected Engine Rating

23.2.1 Rating Number

Rating number within a power family. The C7 an C9 do not support multiple ratings.

23.2.2 Vehicle ID

Identification of the vehicle assigned by the customer and used only for customer reference. The ECM does notrequire this parameter. Up to seventeen alpha-numeric characters can be entered.

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 vehicleapplication. The Truck Manufacturer parameter is Factory Programmed at Caterpillar to provide the samefunctionality with one ECM and one set of Personality Module software. Factory Passwords are required tochange the parameter setting once it has been programmed. The following list of customer parameters identifiesthe different options and/or defaults provided for both configurations listed below.

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 connectedto ECM Vehicle Harness Connector J1/P1 terminal 32 & 33. The ECM uses this value to scale the vehicle speedsignal into miles per hour. It is programmed in pulses per mile (PPM), which represents the number of pulsesproduced per mile in the vehicle speed sensor by the teeth of the chopper wheel mounted on the transmissionoutput shaft. When the hardwired Vehicle Speed Input option is used (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmedto J1/P1:32 & 33), this parameter must be programmed or a Diagnostic Code 253-02 Check Customer Or SystemParameters (56) will occur. This parameter affects cruise control, the ECM speedometer signal, Trip Totals,PTO operation, etc.

23.4.2 Vehicle Speed Cal (J1939-Trans)

This calibration is used when the ECM is configured to calculate Vehicle Speed based on Transmission OutputShaft Speed information received via the J1939 datalink (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed toJ1939-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 calculateactual vehicle speed. When the J1939 Vehicle Speed option is used (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmedto J1939-Trans), this parameter must be programmed or a Diagnostic Code 253-02 Check Customer Or SystemParameters (flash code 56) will occur. This parameter affects cruise control, the ECM speedometer signal,Trip Totals, PTO operation, etc.

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 speedinformation received via the J1939 datalink (Vehicle Speed Input parameter programmed to J1939-ABS). The ABSmanufacturer should be contacted to verify this message is supported. This value represents the ratio to ASSUMEDABS tire revolutions per mile divided by the ACTUAL tire revolutions per mile. If the assumed tire size matches theactual 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 parametermust 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.

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 maythink something is wrong with the engine, because the engine will not fuel above this vehicle speed limit. Vehiclespeed limiting allows implementation of a gear fast/run slow truck specification to further improve fuel economywhile limiting top vehicle speed.

23.4.5 VSL Protection

Maximum engine rpm when there is an ECM detected vehicle speed signal problem. The ECM limits to this enginerpm when it senses no vehicle speed signal, and the engine is loaded. This is a feature to deter tampering byrunning without a Vehicle Speed input to the ECM.

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 beexceeded 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 isprogrammed in pulses per revolution (ppr). Programmable range is from 2.0 to 500.0 in 0.1 ppr increments.

23.4.7 Soft Vehicle Speed Limit

This limit operates in conjunction with the Vehicle Speed Limit. It limits the vehicle speed from 2.5 mph (4 km/h)below the programmed Vehicle Speed Limit at full load, to 2.5 mph (4 km/h) above the selected Vehicle Speed Limitat no load.

23.4.8 High Speed Range Axle Ratio

This parameter must be programmed when the Two Speed Axle Switch parameter is programmed to other thannone. When a two-speed axle is used, the change in gear ratios from the main drive axle ratio to the low-speedaxle ratio alters the calibration of the vehicle speed input. This requires a calibration adjustment to ensure theECM driven speedometer and stored ECM information correctly reflect the actual vehicle speed. This parametershould be programmed to the main drive axle ratio. If a two-speed axle is not used then this parameter does notrequire programming.

23.6 Idle Parameters

23.6.1 Idle Vehicle Speed Limit

This is the Maximum vehicle speed for setting or maintaining a set engine rpm in idle mode. Idle mode is enteredif the engine rpm is set using the cruise control On/Off switch along with Set/Resume. If the vehicle speed signalexceeds this value, the engine will not maintain the set engine rpm.

23.6.2 Idle RPM Limit

This is the Maximum engine rpm while operating in idle mode. Idle mode occurs if the engine rpm is set usingthe cruise control On/Off switch and the Set/Resume switch.

23.6.3 Idle/PTO Bump RPM

Determines the rpm increment/decrement when the Accel/Decel switches are briefly toggled. It also applies to bothdedicated PTO and idle. If a PTO Engine RPM Set Speed has been programmed the Idle/PTO Bump RPM appliesonly to engine rpm control initiated using the Cruise Control On/Off circuit not the PTO On/Off circuit.

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 ispowered up. This feature requires Input #18 connected to a Fast Idle Enable Switch and Output #9 programmedfor and connected to a Fast Idle Enabled Lamp.

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 theprogrammed 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 secondtime. If the Fast Idle Enable switch is depressed and released a third time, the ECM returns to low idle, disablingthe Fast Idle. The default of 0 rpm disables this feature. This feature requires Input #18 connected to a Fast IdleEnable Switch and Output #9 programmed for and connected to a Fast Idle Enabled Lamp.

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 programmedbetween 700 and 1400 RPM. The Warm Up Mode Idle Speed is activated if the sum of Coolant and Inlet ManifoldAir Temperature is less than 86°F (30°C). The warm Up Mode Idle Speed can be disabled by depressing theservice brake, clutch or by placing the transmission in gear from neutral (transmission style and Neutral switchprogramming dependent). The engine Cold Elevated Idle can slowly ramp and return to the programmed WarmUp Mode Idle Speed after being disabled.

23.7 Dedicated PTO Parameters

23.7.1 PTO Configuration

Determines the features available and inputs used for Dedicated PTO applications. OFF (default) indicates theapplication does not use PTO. The remaining PTO programmable options require a PTO On/Off circuit connectedto 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 whenthe PTO On/Off circuit is ON.

If programmed to Remote Throttle, the ECM will monitor Input #8 (J1/P1 terminal-68) for the remote acceleratorpedal. The ECM will monitor the programmed inputs and ignore the cab controls when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON.

23.7.2 PTO Top Engine Limit

The maximum engine RPM while in PTO. Top Engine Limit (TEL) limits this parameter. The PTO Configuration mustbe programmed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches, or Remote Throttle before this parameter can be programmed.

23.7.3 PTO Engine RPM Set Speed

The desired engine RPM between Low Idle and PTO Top Engine Limit. The engine will operate at this rpm eitherwhen the engine to operate when PTO mode is enabled (PTO To Set Speed programmed to “Yes”) or after the“Set Switch” is toggled one time.

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 RPMSet Speed Input A switch is ON. The RPM can be programmed to operate from Low Idle up to the PTO Top EngineLimit 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 willoverride) 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 willonly operate at this programmed speed, unless a condition is present to kickout PTO operation (brake or clutchpedal 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 RemoteThrottle and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A parameter must be programmed to J1/P1: 46 for this featureto function.

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 RPMSet Speed Input B switch is ON and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input A switch if OFF. The RPM can beprogrammed to operate from Low Idle up to the PTO Top Engine Limit RPM. While operating at this set speed, allother 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 EngineRPM Set Speed Input A switch if OFF, the engine will only operate at this programmed speed, unless a conditionis 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 RemoteThrottle and the PTO Engine RPM Set Speed Input B parameter must be programmed to J1/P1:7 or J1/P1:23for this feature to function.

23.7.6 PTO to Set Speed

The PTO Configuration must be programmed to Cab Switches or Remote Switches before this parameter canbe programmed. Programming this parameter to “Yes” will cause the engine to “ramp” at the programmed ramp rateto the programmed “PTO Set Speed” when PTO is enabled. PTO Engine RPM Set Speed A or B will override thisfeature. Programming this parameter to ‘No’ (default) will prevent automatic engine RPM ramping when PTOis enabled.

NOTE: This parameter is not available for the PTO configuration- Remote Throttle.

23.7.7 Maximum PTO Enable Speed

Maximum allowed engine speed that PTO mode will engage. PTO mode will engage when the engine rpmis at or below this programmed value.

23.7.8 PTO Cab Throttle RPM Limit

Determines the engine rpm limit of the Cab Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor when PTO Configuration isprogrammed to Cab Switches and the PTO On/Off circuit is ON. This parameter is intended to prevent engineoverspeed while using dedicated PTO. It can be programmed to allow the Cab Throttle to exceed the programmedPTO 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 PTOConfiguration is programmed to Remote Switches or Remote Throttle, the ECM will always ignore the CabAccelerator Pedal Position Sensor when the PTO On/Off circuit is ON.

23.7.12 PTO Shutdown Time

Time (in minutes) that engine will operate with the PTO On/Off circuit ON and no vehicle speed before shuttingdown. Engine will only count this timer with no vehicle speed and the PTO On/Off circuit ON. The PTO ShutdownTimer will not begin counting if the engine is in Cold Mode. This parameter requires PTO Configurationprogrammed to Cab Switches, Remote Switches, or Remote Throttle for the timer to function.

NOTE: This feature does not remove vehicle power, and the ECM will remain powered.

23.7.13 PTO Activates Cooling Fan

Requires use of the ECM cooling fan circuit. The ECM will signal the cooling fan to continuous operation when thePTO On/Off circuit is ON to reduce changes in load while being used for dedicated PTO applications. Setting thisparameter 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, RemoteSwitches, or Remote Throttle before this parameter can be programmed. Fan Control Type must also beprogrammed to On-Off or Variable speed Option S.

23.7.14 PTO Output Activation Speed

Determines actual engine speed (-100 rpm) the PTO Active Output will be turned On. This feature is available onEmergency Vehicle Horsepower ratings only.

23.8 Exhaust Brake Options

23.8.1 Exhaust Brake Configuration

Determines if the exhaust brake will act as a warm up device, exhaust brake retarder, warm up device and exhaustbrake retarder, or not operate at all.

NOTE: Programming this parameter to None will disable the output to the engine exhaust brake.

23.9 Engine/Gear Parameters

The Universal option for GM configurations controls all inputs/outputs as described above and requires theappropriate jumper wires to be installed in the chassis wiring based on the type of transmission used in the vehicle.

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 transmissionshifting. The ECM monitors accelerator pedal position, engine speed, vehicle speed, load, and cruise controlstatus to determine if the transmission should use “closed throttle” or “full throttle” shift modulation. Programmingthe Transmission Style parameter to AT/MT/HT Option 1, AT/MT/HT Option 2, AT/MT/HT Option 3, or AT/MT/HTOption 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 disablethe relay output. The High setting will cause the transmission to remain in a lower gear longer (higher engine speedbefore shift occurs). The Medium setting is a compromise between the Low and the High setting. Contact AllisonTransmissions regarding recommended settings of this parameter for your application.

23.15.4 Theft Deterrent Password

This password is required to start the engine or move the vehicle if the Theft Deterrent feature has been enabled.Four characters are available for the password (Upper Case A-Z & 0-9). If the Theft Deterrent password is lostor forgotten, a service tool and factory passwords are required to start the engine.

23.15.5 Quick Stop Rate

Determines the rate of vehicle speed change the ECM uses to record a Quick Stop Event Code and Quick StopSnapshot. Each Quick Stop Snapshot contains 60 frames of information with frame 45 being the Quick Stopoccurrence. There are 44 frames before the Quick Stop Event and 15 frames following the Quick Stop Event.Each frame is separated by 1.0 second.

The most recent Quick Stop Snapshot is stored in the ECM memory. Each time another Quick Stop occurs theECM replaces the old Snapshot with the new one. The ECM also logs a diagnostic event code (maximum of255 occurrences stored) for each Quick Stop Occurrence.

NOTE: The allowable range is from 0 -15 mph/s (0 – 24 km/h/s) (0 = OFF) but the recommended range isfrom 3-15 mph/s (5 – 24 km/h/s). Programming the Quick Stop Rate too low will cause an excessive numberof Quick Stop Event Codes. If too many Quick Stop Event Codes are being logged, the Quick Stop Rate shouldbe increased to better detect the exceptions when they occur.

23.17.1 Fan Control Type

This parameter is used to determine what type of fan (if any) the ECM is expected to control.

This parameter should be programmed to ‘None’ if the ECM is not controlling the cooling fan.

23.17.2 Fast Idle Enabled Lamp

A Fast Idle Enabled Lamp parameter is available to turn ON outputs J1/P1: 31(default) or J1/P1: 21 whenFast Idle #1 or #2 operation is active. This requires a momentary Fast Idle switch installed on Input #18 (J1/P1: 40)and the Fast Idle RPM #1 to be programmed to a valid speed above low idle. J1/P1: 31 may not be used if theEngine Monitoring Lamps is programmed to Option 1.

23.18 Passwords

23.18.1 Customer Password #1 and Customer Password #2

Customer Passwords can be programmed to protect against unauthorized parameter changes. Either one ortwo passwords (eight alphanumeric characters each) can be used. When programmed, the ECM will requirethe password(s) to be entered before a parameter can be changed. After entering the configuration screen,the password(s) must only be entered one time in order to change one or several parameters. If the passwordsare lost or forgotten, obtaining Factory Passwords from an Authorized dealer can allow them to be viewed.

23.19 Data Link Parameters

23.19.1 Powertrain Data link

This parameter enables the ECM to communicate over the SAE J1939 data link. If the vehicle is not usingthe data link for communication between the engine and another chassis system, this parameter shouldbe programmed to NONE.

NOTE: For GM trucks, a diagnostic code for a J1939 Data Link Fault (231-11 [58]) will occur if the PowertrainData Link parameter is set to J1939 without a SAE J1939 powertrain component ECM on the vehicle tocommunicate with the engine ECM. With the GM configuration, the 231-11 fault will be disabled after five hoursif a J1939 Powertrain component is not connected to the ECM.

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 acomponent 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 andstored 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 isa software based service tool used to diagnose and repair Caterpillar products. It is designed to run on a personalcomputer 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®) thatallows a user to run diagnostics on CAT On-Highway Electronic Truck engines. Contact your local Caterpillar Dealerfor more details.

Older service tools will not recognize the C7 or C9 engine. These tools include the Electronic Control Analyzer andProgrammer (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 seriesconnector to connect to the vehicle. Caterpillar offers a variety of adapter cables to connect various cab/enginedatalink connectors to the standard 9-pin connector found on the 139-4166 or 207-6845 Service Tool cable. Thefollowing 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-BoardDiagnostic Connector

24.1 ECM Software Changes

ECM software changes (uprates, updates) require a personal computer, a Caterpillar approved communicationadapter, 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 areperformed 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 differencefrom 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 therespective 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 setsof 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:

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 mphor 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 theCruise Set/Resume switch can also be used to manually trigger a snapshot. The Set/Resume switch must betoggled to the Set then the Resume position within one second to trigger the snapshot recorder. The ECM canstore up to two Diagnostic Code Triggered snapshots, two Externally triggered snapshots, and one Quick StopSnapshot. Each type is stored in a “circular buffer”. When a new snapshot is taken, the oldest one in the bufferwill be replaced.

24.5 Engine Snapshot Recorder Records

Each diagnostic record contains 27 frames of information; frame 20 is the diagnostic code occurrence, 19 framesbefore, 7 frames following the code. Each frame is separated by 0.48 seconds. Each switch activated recordcontains 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 ECMstores 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 framesbefore, 15 frames following the code. Each frame is separated by 1.0 second.

24.6.1 Data Stored In Quick Stop Recorder Frames

Each frame of the Quick Stop snapshot record stores the following data;

ECM Snapshot Frame Data

Engine rpm Vehicle Speed

Throttle Position Cruise Status

Clutch Switch Brake Switch #1

Time (Engine Hours) Idle Fuel Average Driving Speed

Driving Time Percent Idle Time Max Vehicle Speed

Distance PTO Time Max Engine Speed

Fuel PTO Fuel Start Time

24.7 ECM Date/Time Clock

The ECM date & time can be programmed using an Electronic Service Tool or VEPS. The Electronic Service Toolwill display the programmed Date in Month/Day/Year format and the programmed Time in Hour:Minute:Secondformat. The Electronic Service Tool has the option to program any date/time or automatically select the date/timestored in the PC real time clock. The date and time will remain in the ECM and will not reset even if the UnswitchedBattery connections are removed.

The ECM real time clock is accurate to within four minutes per month worst case. Typically the accuracy is similarto a personal computer real time clock.

24.8 ECM Diagnostic Clock

The Diagnostic Clock should not be confused with the ECM Date/Time clock. The Diagnostic Clock records actualhours that the ECM has been powered (ignition key switch ON). The diagnostic clock information is used to logdiagnostic code and event code occurrences. Logged diagnostic codes and event codes display the diagnosticclock hour of the first and last occurrence and the total number of occurrences. The Diagnostic Clock does notrepresent actual Engine Hours, it increments any time the ECM is powered regardless of whether the engineis running or not. Actual Engine Running hours (Total Time) can be obtained from the Current Totals menu ofET (Electronic Technician).
