SPINDLE (STD) 1187364 - Caterpillar

Configuration parameters concern various engine features. Some parameters can affect the performance of the engine. Most of the parameters may be programmed with an Electronic Technician (ET) service tool. Some of the parameters require a password in order to be programmed.Note: For information on programming the parameters, use the appropriate ET service tool and see the Service Manual, "Troubleshooting" module.Some parameters may not be available on all applications. If a parameter is not available, the ET service tool will indicate that the parameter is "unavailable" when the parameter is selected. Table 1 is a list of typical configuration parameters.

Cold Mode Cylinder Cutout     Programmable    For generator set engines with switchgear conversions and for marine auxiliary engines, the following parameters are programmed at the factory to 0:crank duration and maximum number of crank cycles.
"Crank duration"
"Maximum number of crank cycles"The "0" settings prevent the Electronic Control Module (ECM) from engaging the starting motors. The settings must be reprogrammed be
