Introduction

A new Plus+1 Service Tool for Caterpillar (P1STC) version 171103 with Plus+1 Guide Service Tool version 9.1 is now available. Both programs will be installed to your computer during this procedure. The P1STC will automatically use the Plus+1 Guide Service Tool during machine service.

The new P1STC has been updated with more machine diagnostic files to service more machines. The new P1STC is required for the new 480-5264 Communication Cable. The P1STC instructions for connecting to a machine have been updated.

The P1STC service tool software is also known as Plus 1 from earlier versions. The P1STC is now the recommended service tool for certain Paving Products that require Plus 1 to communicate with the machine ECM controllers.

This software installation instruction applies to computers with the Windows 7 ^® Operating System. Installation to computers with the Windows 8 ^® and Windows 10 ^® operating system is similar.

The P1STC requires Caterpillar Electronic Technician (CAT ET) version 2017A or later before installation on your computer. The P1STC uses the CAT ET license, no other license is required.

Operating instructions for P1STC are published in the Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Electrical Troubleshooting, and Test and Adjustment Manual for each machine model. Updated instructions are provided here.

Note: Administrative rights to your computer are required before installing this software.

Note: The computer text size setting must be 100% or less. P1STC will not support text settings larger than 100%.

Future versions of P1STC may be released without changes to this instruction. This instruction will be updated if the installation procedure of the software changes. This instruction may continue to be used with newer versions of P1STC.

P1STC is required only for machines listed in the P1D Help cross reference document. The P1D Help cross reference document can be viewed by selecting the P1D Help icon (16) from the default window of P1STC. The default window is displayed once P1STC is started. The P1D Help document can also be viewed by navigating to folder C:\PLUS+1\CAT Diagnostic Files\P1DHelp.

The version number of P1STC is dated. For example: version 171120 is the year (2017) followed by the month (November) and day (20).

Note: Non Caterpillar machines that require Plus+1 Guide should continue to work with this version of Guide. However, if licenses are required for service, it is recommended to record that information before installation of P1STC.

Required Tools

Note: Tool 1A may be used with all versions of P1STC. Tool 1B may only be used with P1STC version 150326 and up.

Note: Tool 3A may only be used with the 9-pin service port. Tool 3B may be used with Tier 4 final machines equipped with a 14-pin service port and earlier built machines with the 9-pin service port.

Machine Controller Flash Files

Illustration 19	g03845614

Certain flash files for paving machine controllers may be downloaded from the Paving Products "Downloads" section of SIS web.

The most common Paving Product flash files are downloaded from the "Service Software Files" section of SIS web by entering the software part number to the Flash Filename search field (35).

The software part numbers are located in the parts information section of SIS web. Use the "Parts/Keyword Search" section of SIS web similar to searching any part. Search using keyword "software" for a list of software part numbers.

Only certain machines may use a serial number search for software. Reference the latest Service Magazine of machine software (if available) for your specific machine serial number.

Note the location of the flash file being saved to your computer. P1STC flash files have a ".LHX" file type extension. For easy identification, create and name a folder for saving individual flash files.

Later built paving compactors may have a CAT ET compatible display. The CAT ET compatible displays require ".FL2" type flash files and cannot be flashed with P1STC. The flash file type will determine the service software tool.

CAT ET is used with ".FL1" and ".FL2" type flash files.

P1STC is used with ".LHX" type flash files unless instructed otherwise.

Machine Controller Flash Procedure

The flash procedure may take up to 60 minutes to complete. Ensure that your computer has a sufficient power source before beginning.

Note: Always save the Controller/ ECM Parameters before performing a flash procedure. Certain machine calibrations are required if the controller/ ECM parameter file is not first saved to the service technicians computer. The Parameter file contains certain machine calibrations and configuration information. The parameter file is not to be confused with a Product Status Report (PSR).

    If the parameter file was not saved, the configuration settings will need to be set. Refer to SIMS Machine Configurations and the machine purchase records for reference. Certain calibrations may also need to be performed. Refer to the machine display for faults. Resolve the calibration faults by referring to the Testing and Adjusting media for the machine being serviced.

Recovering a Controller (ECM)

A recovery procedure may be necessary if the connection was lost or interrupted between the service computer and the controller/ECM during a flash procedure. A recovery procedure may be performed to correct communication errors between P1STC and the ECM.

The recovery procedure does not guarantee a controller/ECM will be serviceable. Some controller/ECM may require replacement, regardless of a successful recovery procedure.

Note: The "Communication Adapter 3" cannot be used during the ECM recovery procedure.

The System Scan ECM summary window may be used to help determine which ECM is unresponsive. Quickly note each ECU number and description while this information is briefly displayed. Reference Illustration 29. The scan is performed immediately after the P1D diagnostic file for the machine is selected or by selecting the Menu tab (36), then the Scan tab.

   Note: Another option to obtain the ECU node is to observe the pop up window after selecting the machine "P1D" file while P1STC scans the machine controllers. The window appears for a brief period of time and you may have to repeat until you have all the information. Refer to Illustration 29.

   Typical ECU Node identification numbers are:

   • 004 Split Drum Controller

   • 024 Machine ECM 2

   • 039 Machine ECM

   • 040 Main Display

   • 065 Compaction Control

   • 072 Attachment ECM for example, Blade, Edge Cutter

   1. Select the "Specify ECU" radio button (38).

   2. The Net value should be “0”.

   3. Enter the ECU Node number for the ECM that requires a recovery procedure.

   4. Select the "Recover"... button (39) to start the recovery process.

6. Select the "Close" button once the status bar is full, and perform the flash ECM procedure. If the ECM fails to accept the flash software, replacement may be required. Failure of the ECM is unlikely.

   Prior to replacing an ECM, contact your dealership for possible consultation with Caterpillar. This consultation may greatly reduce repair time.

7. Allow P1STC to scan the machine ECMs. The recovered ECM will now be listed as ECU "0.239". When flashing the ECM you will need to confirm the application type.

   The application type is provided at the top right side of the first window displayed after selecting the flash file. You will need to increase the column width to see the full text by selecting the top edge and sliding the column. The file type is case, special character, and space sensitive. Record and use the application type in the request field of the "Confirm Application Type" window to continue the flash procedure.

   The recovery procedure is complete.

Machine Configurations

Illustration 36	g03845174

The Plus+1 Service Tool for Caterpillar P1STC is also used to set the ECM configuration settings. The configuration settings change how the ECM communicates and operates. The configuration settings must match the machine components and attachments. Incorrect configuration settings could cause nuisance fault and/or event codes.

This instruction provides information to make configuration changes such as adjusting the engine idle shutdown (EIS) time and the Vibration Engagement speed (if equipped). Refer to the specific Test & Adjustment and Operating Maintenance Manual for the machine being serviced for more configuration adjustments.

Refer to SIMSi "Product Configuration" description column for the factory installed attachments to set the correct configuration values. Dealer installed attachments will also need to be considered if SIMSi was not updated.

The configuration setting adjustments are necessary if an ECM fails, or an attachment is added or removed. Some configurations may be adjusted at the machine display without the use of P1STC.

1. Select "Configurations" button (40).

2. Enter the "Machine Setup" parameters for the machine (41).

3. Select "Save" button (42) if the configuration value is changed.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each option listed under the "Configurations" column after selecting/clicking.

5. "Turn the machine key start switch to the OFF position. Select the "Exit" icon button (43). The Configurations procedure is now complete.
