Normal mode is used during normal machine operation. When you are in normal mode, the Caterpillar Monitoring System performs the following operations.
- A monitoring system that is operating properly will perform a self-test whenever the key switch is turned to the ON position. The outputs also operate for a brief instant. See Testing and Adjusting, "System Self Test ".
- The main display module continuously watches machine systems. If the gauges are available, the gauges in the quad gauge module show a value in a normal range. Ground speed readout (7) is shown as a numeric value and the transmission gear readout (8) on the module shows numeric values. The value for a condition may also be shown in the display area.
- The main display can show a problem with the machine. The main display module continuously monitors machine systems. When an abnormal condition (problem) exists, the corresponding alert indicator (4) FLASHES. As the severity of the problem increases, the action lamp FLASHES and the action alarm SOUNDS. See Systems Operation, "Warning Operation".
Note: The main display module may notify the operator when a fault exists in other electronic systems. This is done in different ways. The following example is of a fault that occurs in the engine electronic system. The service code indicator will show "SERV CODE" and the alert indicator for "check engine" FLASHES. See the Operation And Maintenance Manual for the machine that is being serviced for more specific information on the machine.

The six digit display area (9) is used to show various conditions of the machine system to the operator (Operator Modes). Operator modes that are available to the operator are dependent to the monitoring system that is installed on the machine. The table above lists the operator modes by the machine.
The default condition is shown on the six digit display area when the main display module enters normal mode. This condition is normally the service meter. See System Operation, "Service Meter Mode" for more information.
The six digit display area scrolls through the available operator modes when the operator switch input is grounded. Opening the switch input will stop the scrolling on the currently shown mode. Mode numbers are not displayed when operator modes are scrolling.
See the topic with the corresponding name on the following pages for a more detailed explanation of each mode.
