Service Lamp (1) Service Lamp (2) Schematic |
The service indicator lamp connects to the output of the service indicator lamp (contact 21) of the VIMS main module. The service indicator lamp has a blue lens. The service indicator lamp is located outside the cab in an area that is easily seen by someone that is a distance away from the machine. The service indicator lamp is turned ON in order to warn the service personnel that the VIMS module has detected an active event (data or machine). A flashing service indicator lamp indicates that the event could be damaging to the machine. If the event becomes inactive, the service indicator lamp is turned OFF. However, the event is stored in the main module memory.
When power is applied to the VIMS module (key start switch to the ON position), the main module memory is checked for any inactive events. If any events are found, the service indicator lamp is FLASHED three times. If no events are found, the service indicator lamp is FLASHED once. The service indicator lamp can be reset via the keypad or the off-board service tool even if the event is still active. For more information, see the Systems Operation, "Service Operations" section of this manual.
