Event codes alert the operator or the technician that an abnormal operating condition exists in the transmission system.When the transmission ECM activates an event code, the operator or the technician will be alerted. Most active events will be logged by the ECM. Some events are not logged to the ECM. The active events and the logged events can be viewed with the Operator Monitor or the Cat® Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Service Tool.Warning Levels
The ECM will assign one of the three warning levels to an active event code according to the severity of the abnormal system condition. Each warning level requires a specific response from the operator. The warning levels and required operator response are listed below.Warning Level 1
Warning Level 1 alerts the operator that a machine system requires attention. The operator should check the system involved. Perform any necessary maintenance to the system at the earliest possible time.Warning Level 2
Warning Level 2 requires changing the operation of the machine or performing a maintenance procedure. Failure to correct the problem behind this warning will damage the components that are involved. The problem that caused the event requires correction before the machine can resume operation.Warning Level 3
Warning Level 3 requires an immediate safe shutdown of the machine to avoid damage to the machine or injury to personnel around the machine. The problem that caused the event must be corrected before machine operation can resume.Indications and System Response
