ROD ASSEM. 9M3980 - Caterpillar

Histograms
Counters of parameter value data collected and stored into pre-defined and configured intervals. Histograms can be conditional prior to the data being collected, the condition is established during configuration. Histogram data can be downloaded for further analysis and can be reset. Histograms and component life tracking are possible.Information Security
Provides different levels of access to various information stored on the ECM, this information may include calibrations and target weights. Access to the level of information and authorized users can be defined.Memory Management
Allocate memory by priority and provide protected memory spaces for snapshot/datalogger storage. Available memory can be reallocated to other storage requirements.On-Board Communication
VIMS 3G can respond to other ECMs or on-board devices over the data links. VIMS 3G supports the following protocols:
Standard parameter broadcast
Parameter group broadcast
Asynchronous data transferFollowing are the forms of communication:
Transmit to ECMs on condition
Transmit to ECMs on interval
Poll ECMs for valuesTransmit to ECMs on Condition - Provides data to an external device on or off the machine if a configured condition is activated. Examples include events or diagnostics flashing to the screen when a condition is activated.Transmit to ECMs on Interval - Provides data to an external device on or off the machine at a set interval. Examples include necessary calibration steps or master real-time-clock updates.Poll ECMs for Values - Provides the capability to request the values of the parameters supported by other ECMs over the data links. VIMS 3G supports the following protocols:
Parameter read
Event and diagnostic data transfer
Block data transferRequest Data from External Device on Condition - Requests data from an external device on the machine when activated by a condition.Write Parameters on Request - Write the VIMS 3G parameters on request from other ECMs or on-board devices over the data links. VIMS 3G supports the following protocols:
Parameter write
Parameter overrideListen to ECMs for Message Broadcast - Monitors other ECMs messages sent over the data links. VIMS 3G Main ECM will pick up the useful ones such as diagnostic codes and EIDs. VIMS 3G supports the following protocols:
Event and diagnostic data transfer
Event and diagnostic codes one at a time only
Event codes protocol
Diagnostic codes protocolOperator Identification
VIMS 3G records an operator ID and makes the operator ID available to other systems on the machine. VIMS 3G stamps the following data:
Start/stop times
Productivity
Events
Logged parameters with the operator ID associated with that dataThe graphical display associates the operator ID with an operator profile. This association allows the following:
Display preferences
Operational performance limitations
Other particular operator features
Other set of operators features
Other type of machine features
Other work site sector featuresA site can manage and control the amount of profile customization available to the operator. Customization includes language, display, and implement controls. The customized information is displayed on the Advisor display.Parameters
VIMS 3G provides VIMS generated parameter values to any system that requests the parameters. These VIMS accessible parameter values can be viewed in real time through external interfaces connected to VIMS 3G.Configurable Parameter Reporting - Provides a dynamic data logging and reporting mechanism within the VIMS 3G Main ECM. The VIMS 3G Main ECM can request,
