Introduction
In certain cases, there may be the need to change the specification of the engine through the Electronic Control Module (ECM) configuration file. These changes to the parameters will alter the original engine factory built specification.
ECM Parameters
The process of changing ECM parameters is completed using the electronic service tool by altering any of the following parameters that are shown in table 1. Under certain circumstances there may be an additional requirement to provide factory passwords.

Copy ECM Configuration Function in Caterpillar Electronic Technician
- Select "Service", then "Copy Configuration", then "ECM Replacement" from the menu options. Refer to illustration 1.
Illustration 1 | g02358919 |
Typical example |
- Click "Cancel" on the pop-up window. Refer to illustration 2.
Illustration 2 | g02358937 |
Typical example |
- Select "Yes" on the message.
Refer to illustration 3.
Illustration 3 | g02358963 |
Typical example |
- The message will confirm the ECM parameter changes have been copied into an XML file format. Refer to illustration 4.
Illustration 4 | g02358966 |
Typical example |
- Save the updated ECM configuration file to a safe file location. Refer to illustration 5.
Illustration 5 | g02358969 |
Typical example |
The resulting ECM file must be saved in XML format and emailed to updated_ECM_files@cat.com.
There is no pro-active requirement for the updated ECM configuration files. This information is only required when alterations are made to the ECM configuration file through troubleshooting, servicing, and routine maintenance.
Note: If ECM parameters are changed during troubleshooting procedures, Caterpillar only requires the final set ECM parameters once the engine has been put back into operation.
This process will provide up-to-date ECM configuration data that is accessible via Technical Marketing Information (TMI).
