GEAR-PUMP DRIVE 4W6675 - Caterpillar

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors engine operation. If a parameter extends outside an acceptable range, the ECM will initiate action. The ECM can cause a warning to occur. The ECM can derate engine power. The ECM can cause an engine shutdown to occur. Not all of the actions are available for all parameters.The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) can be used to select the ECM response. Cat ET can be used to program the level of engine monitoring and the delay times.Separate timers are used in the ECM for each response that is associated with a parameter. Once the trip point is exceeded for an action, the timer for that action is started. For example, if the high coolant temperature warning is set to 102 °C (216 °F) with a five seconds delay, the delay timer starts counting once the coolant temperature exceeds 102 °C (216 °F). If the coolant remained above 102 °C (216 °F) for five seconds, a warning would be issued.Use care when you program the trip point and the delay times. The resulting ECM response must be correct for the application. If the legal range is not exceeded, the engine monitoring system will accept any setting.If the trip point for a shutdown is lower than the trip point for a warning, the engine will shut down. The warning will not be activated.Once a parameter has exceeded the trip point the parameter must drop a certain amount below the trip point before the ECM response will end.If a warning is programmed to 102 °C (216 °F), the temperature must exceed the range in order for the warning to activate. The temperature must decrease below 99 °C (210 °F) for the warning to stop. The variance is the hysteresis. The following table gives the hysteresis for each parameter.
