PIN 2233577 - Caterpillar

Electronic KeyThe machine security system (MSS) uses a Caterpillar Electronic key. The key contains an electronic chip that is embedded in the head of the key. This chip contains a unique identification number. No two keys have the same ID. The Electronic Key uses the same key cut as the standard Caterpillar key. The electronic key can be used to operate machines that are not equipped with the MSS. The head of the electronic key is gray or yellow in color. The machine can be started when none of the valid keys are available. Any CAT key and the access code for the MSS are required to enable this function. A System Disarm Feature will allow a machine to operate with any key. Refer to the Testing and Adjusting, "Scheduled Access - Program" for additional information.Security ManagementThe Machine Security System uses the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) (V3.2 or later) to manage the settings of the system. There are restrictions on accessing the settings. The "Security Management" feature for the MSS controls the access to the settings.
