This is a typical example of the Display Area (Mode 2). |
The Caterpillar Monitoring System has several different possible modes of operation. Each mode provides important information regarding the condition of the machine. Each mode also provides information regarding the setup of the monitoring system. All of the modes are given names and the modes are referenced in this manual. The mode is shown as a number on each display area on the main display module. This number is assigned by the software in the main display module.
The mode of operation is changed by holding the "CLEAR/MODE" switch in the MODE position. Table 1shows the modes that are available.

When power is applied, the Caterpillar Monitoring System performs the self test. After the self test is complete the Caterpillar Monitoring System enters the Normal Mode. To enter the other modes, "CLEAR/MODE" switch is held in the MODE position. This action causes the mode numbers to scroll sequentially on the six digit display area of the main display module. When the "CLEAR/MODE" switch is released, the monitoring system enters the mode which corresponds to the number that is presently shown. The following situation is an example. When you see the mode number "- 1-" on the readout release the "CLEAR/MODE" switch. This action causes the monitoring system to enter harness code mode.
Note: The following situation will occur when the key start switch is in the ON position and the "CLEAR/MODE" switch is held in the MODE position: The monitoring system performs the self test when the power is applied. The mode numbers immediately scroll after the self test.
