Get the diagnostic codes.
Run the service procedures.
Clear the diagnostic codes.The VIMS display components show the following information to the operator and/or the service person:
The VIMS is operating properly. The key start switch is turned to the ON position. Some of the VIMS outputs operate briefly. The VIMS performs a self test of the system.
The VIMS displays a value for the system condition. The VIMS continuously monitors all machine systems.
An abnormal condition in the machine system (data event) exists. The VIMS continuously monitors the machine systems. When an abnormal condition exists, the alert indicator (7) FLASHES. Also, the message area (9) shows the system parameter that has an abnormal condition. Universal gauge (10) also shows the approximate value of the abnormal parameter. The event is stored in the main module memory. As the severity of the problem increases the action lamp FLASHES and the action alarm SOUNDS.
The VIMS continuously checks for electrical problems in the VIMS. The VIMS monitors the other electronic control module systems on the machine. The VIMS continuously checks for failures, when a failure exists. A detected maintenance event is shown on the message area. A detected maintenance event is stored in the memory of the main module. See "Service Operations".
The VIMS enters normal mode when the VIMS is powered up. Initiate a service operation with the keypad in order to exit the normal mode. See "Service Operations".Service Operations
The operator and/or the service person can initiate numerous VIMS service operations. A service program code (SPC) is assigned to each service operations. Use the keypad to enter the service program code into the VIMS. The service program code initiates the corresponding server operation. Some of the service operations are listed in the following table:
