MODULE GP-DISPLAY 3173880 - Caterpillar

Off Mode
The "Off mode" allows the control system to be powered up with the engine in a controlled shutdown condition.In the "Off mode", the control ensures that the following driver circuits from the ECM are off:
Fuel shutoff valve
Starting motor solenoid
Driver circuit for the ignition
Service meterIn the "Off mode", the system monitors the control command signal. The system will remain in the "Off mode" until "Run" is requested. If a "Run" command is requested, the system will exit "Off mode" and the system will enter "Pre-start mode". In the "Off mode", it is safe to turn off power to the control.Prestart Mode
The "Prestart mode" provides protection against cranking the engine when it could be harmful to the engine. The "Prestart mode" performs the following three tasks:
Optional prelube cycle
Optional crank inhibit due to low temperature of the coolant water
Driven equipment crank inhibitIn "Prestart mode", any control command signal other than "Run", returns the system to the "Off" mode.Prelube Cycle and postlube Cycle Feature
The prelube cycle applies lubricating oil to the bearings before the engine is cranked. The postlube cycle lubricates the turbocharger after the engine shuts down. Prelube must be enabled with Caterpillar Electronic technician (ET). A postlube duration time is programmable with Cat ET.Low Coolant Water Temperature Start Inhibit
The "Low coolant water temperature start inhibit" function is optional. If the temperature of the coolant water is below the set point, an event is generated and starting is inhibited.Driven Equipment Start Inhibit
This function allows the customer to connect a switch input to auxiliary equipment in order to delay starting of the engine until the equipment is ready. Monitoring a pressure switch for driven equipment is an example of this input.Cranking Mode
The following is part of the cranking mode process: fuel purge procedure, crank cycle, rest cycle and subsequent crank and rest cycles.The following steps describe the process:
The indicator for the run relay is energized.
The "Engine Purge Cycle Time" allows any unburned fuel to exit through the exhaust system prior to ignition. This helps prevent combustion in the exhaust system.
The driver circuit for the starter solenoid is energized. The system remains in the cranking mode until either the engine starts, or the cycle crank time is exceeded. If the cycle crank time elapses without the engine starting, the starter solenoid and the fuel shutoff valve are de-energized. The system enters the rest cycle.
During the rest cycle, the starter and the fuel shutoff valve remain de-energized. The system remains in the rest cycle for the cycle crank time. After the cycle crank time has elapsed, the system goes back to the fuel purge procedure. The cycle will repeat.
A timer starts as soon as the system enters the cranking mode. During the cranking mode, if the timer exceeds a user defined total crank time, an overcrank event is generated. This causes the system to change to the off mode.When the engine speed exceeds a set crank terminate speed, the engine is defined as being started. The following actions take place when the crank
