This section outlines the procedure for mounting the 459-0786 Communication Electronic Control Module. A drill template that is for locating the hole pattern for the 459-0786 Communication Electronic Control Module is included in the 348-2154 Grade Control Mounting Gp. The following three mounting options are possible:

  • Drilling and tapping the mounting surface

  • Drilling for use of a nut and bolt

  • Mounting the ECM to the adapter plates

Selecting a Location for the ECM


NOTICE

When mounting the ECM, orient the ECM so that the ECM connector is not subjected to high-pressure spray or underwater submersion. Exposure to high-pressure spray or underwater submersion may compromise the connector seal and lead to connection failure.

When mounting the ECM, orient the ECM so that the ECM is not used as a "boot step" or a fulcrum point. The ECM is made of a high strength cast aluminum, but can still be damaged.


Caterpillar recommends considering the following criteria for selecting a location for the ECM:

  • Mount the ECM in a location that will not expose the ECM to temperatures above 85° C (185° F).

Note: If the temperature at the location is unknown, mount the ECM in a location that can be properly ventilated.

  • Measure the location to ensure correct spacing for the ECM and the harness routing. Overall dimensions are 195 mm (7.7 inch) by 170 mm (6.7 inch) by 100 mm (3.9 inch).


NOTICE

Be sure to check behind any part or panel for machine components before drilling the part or panel. Checking behind part or panel for hidden electrical harnesses, hydraulic lines, and/or fuel lines will reduce the chance for unwanted damage to the machine.


Product Link "Elite" Mounting Requirements

Identify a mounting location for the Product Link "Elite". Caterpillar recommends installing the Product Link "Elite" in the same cabinet as the machine ECM. Measure the location to ensure correct spacing for the Product Link "Elite" "footprint" and the harness routing. The 459-0786 Communication Electronic Control Module, must be mounted in a location that will not expose the Product Link "Elite" to temperatures above 85° C (185.00° F). If the temperature at the location is unknown, mount the Product Link "Elite" in a location that can be properly ventilated. Determine the appropriate mounting method for each specific application. The Product Link "Elite" must be shock mounted.


NOTICE

When mounting the Product Link "Elite", orient the devices so that the connector is not subjected to high-pressure spray or underwater submersion. Exposure to high-pressure spray or underwater submersion may compromise the connector seal and lead to connection failure. The device shall not be used as a "boot step" or a fulcrum point. The Network Manager ECM is made of a high strength cast aluminum, but can still be damaged.


The ECM must be isolation mounted utilizing the appropriate mounting hardware. The PLE601 ECM will be fastened utilizing 4 (M6 X 1) bolts or studs, the length can vary depending on the installation. Standard torque specs should be used. The orientation of the module should be vertical +/- 45 degrees such that the 70-pin connector extends out horizontally from the Product Link "Elite" and the harness extend downward to act as a drip loop.

Install the ground strap between the washer and the bolt head/nut on the nearest shock mount. The ground strap must provide a path to chassis ground utilizing the bolt or stud. The location of the Network Manager ECM mounting may be limited by the J1939 stub length. Refer to "Required Parts" for the full component list.

Protect the 70-pin connector during paint operations. If the painting is electrostatic, the harness should be connected to provide proper grounding for the electronics.

Installing the 8C-5681 Limit Switch As

Note: This switch is only required for installations of Cat MineStar Fleet.

The dump switch is used on Non-Cat Trucks to allow the MineStar Fleet onboard system to know dumping events.

A custom striker plate must be welded to the underside of the truck bed. The striker plate is positioned to make contact to the 224-6646 Actuator on the 8C-5681 Limit Switch As when the truck bed is lowered. When the truck bed comes down, the striker plate moves the switch. Thus, the truck will signal a dump state to MineStar. The striker plate should be approximately 152.4 mm (6 inch) by 203.2 mm (8 inch).
