"Maintenance Mode" in Product Link is used to prevent codes from being transmitted when performing service to a machine or engine. When performing maintenance on equipment that is equipped with Product Link, place the Product Link device in "Maintenance Mode".

The maintenance mode is used to prevent diagnostic and event messages from being reported when performing maintenance on the machine. This value should be reverted to "Off" after the servicing is complete. This value also reverts to "Off" after 12 calendar hours in order to ensure proper operation (long term) of the system. If an event or diagnostic does occur when the maintenance mode is active, the event is ignored until the maintenance mode is turned off. Remember to clear any diagnostic codes that were created during maintenance. If you do not remember, the diagnostic codes will be transmitted once the maintenance mode is turned off.
To disable the Product Link device from sending any diagnostic or event messages while performing maintenance, select the "On" value. To continue normal operation of the system after maintenance is done, select the "Off" (default) value.
