HARNESS AS-CONSOLE 3260929 - Caterpillar

Introduction
The boom hydraulic circuit contains a regeneration circuit. This regeneration circuit allows the return oil from the head end of the boom cylinders to be supplied to the rod end of the boom cylinders during the BOOM DOWN operation. The proportional reducing valve (PRV) for the boom regeneration valve controls the amount of pilot pressure from the joystick to the boom down regeneration valve. The PRV for the boom regeneration valve is controlled by the machine ECM.Required Tools

The following procedures must be completed before performing the calibration.
Set the pilot pressure to the specifications in Testing and Adjusting, "Relief Valve (Pilot) - Test and Adjust" for the machine.
Calibrate the power shift pressure. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Solenoid Valve (Proportional Reducing) - Calibrate (Power Shift Pressure)" for the machine.
Calibrate the proportional reducing valve for negative flow control. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Solenoid Valve (Proportional Reducing) - Calibrate (Negative Flow Control)" for the machine.
Position the machine on level ground.
Stop the engine.
Release the pressure in the hydraulic system. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "System Pressure - Release".

Connect a 3447 kPa (500 psi) pressure sensor to the pressure tap for the boom regeneration valve.
Start the engine.
Place the machine controls at the following settings: engine speed dial "10" and AEC switch OFF. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Engine Performance - Test (Engine Speed)" for engine rpm settings.
Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55° 5°C (131° 9°F).
Place the machine implements on the ground at maximum reach.
Place the hydraulic activation lever in the UNLOCK position. Calibration Procedure
Enter the service mode. Input the password "9992".
