Manual Throttle Options
1) Vernier Throttle (Default)
Vernier throttle is standard up and down throttle between the minimum and maximum
selections. The ramp rate is the rate of acceleration in rpm’s per second. The control panel uses
J1939 throttle, also called “torque speed control” or TSC1.

ENGINE ALARMS, CODES AND MESSAGES
Engine ECU Alarm/De-Rate/Shut Downs
It is important to understand panel operation with respect to engine safety protections, alarms, and
fault codes. The panel operates with J1939 engines. These engines have an ECU (engine control
unit) which is essentially a computer that runs the engine. When engine parameters are out of
normal operating ranges, the ECU takes specific actions which can include the following:
1) Broadcast a trouble code
2) Broadcast a red or yellow lamp
3) De-rate the engine
4) Shut down the engine
5) Turn on alarm horn
It is the engine ECU that de-rates or shuts down the engine when it is not operating within normal
parameters. This includes more common shut downs like high engine temperature and low oil
pressure but can encompass a large range of parameters depending on the ECU.
Panel Alarm Annunciation and Code Reader
This panel is configured to operate with standard J1939 engines where engine de-rate and
shutdowns are managed by the engine ECU. The panel communicates with the engine ECU and
serves as a trouble code reader. When the engine ECU broadcasts a trouble code (called an
SPN.FMI code) the panel does the following:
1) Illuminate the appropriate LED indicator lamp
a. Yellow Lamp = Alarm
b. Red Lamp = Engine Shut Down
2) Displays the trouble code
3) Displays a code description on the LCD screen
4) Displays the occurrence count of the code

Indicator Lamps
The panel red (alarm) and amber (pre alarm) lamp indicators.
Active and Stored Engine ECU Codes
The panel also provides the ability to check the engine ECU for all ACTIVE and STORED engine ECU
codes. These codes can be viewed via the Active Codes and Stored Codes menus. In addition, the
control panel has its own Alarm Event Log menu that shows the last 16 engine ECU alarms as well as
any control panel specific alarms.

CONTROL PANEL SPECIFIC ALARMS AND SHUT DOWNS
The panel has its own engine safety alarms and shut downs that can be enabled. These alarms and
shut downs are managed by the control panel independent from the engine ECU. The available
options are listed below and can be accessed via the Engine Safety Configuration menu.
Each alarm must be enabled in the Engine Safety Configuration menu to activate.

1) Off / Always / Run –Describes when the parameter will be monitored for alarm conditions. Run
refers to when the engine is running. Off disables the alarm conditions. Always enables the alarm
constantly regardless of engine state.
2) Alarm Delay –The time period, after Sender Check Bypass, that the parameter must be on the
alarm condition before the alarm becomes latched.

Analog 1 Function Options
1) Fuel Level S-W –Fuel amount, in percentage, can be measured and displayed on the C3
module using a standard Stewart Warner scale sender of 240 ohms –33 ohms. 240 = Empty
and 33 = Full. Sender ground must be common with battery negative.
2) Fuel Level VDO –Fuel amount, in percentage can be measured and displayed on the C3
module using a VDO scale sender of 10 ohms –180 ohms. 10 = Empty and 180 = Full.
Sender ground must be common with battery negative.
3) Oil Pressure SW 100 PSI –Oil pressure, in PSI, can be measured and displayed on the C3
module using a standard Stewart Warner scale sender of 240 ohms –33 ohms. 240 = 0 PSI
and 33 = 100 PSI. Sender ground must be common with battery negative.
4) Oil Pressure SW 125 PSI –Oil pressure, in PSI, can be measured and displayed on the C3
module using a standard Stewart Warner scale sender of 240 ohms –33 ohms. 240 = 0 PSI
and 33 = 125 PSI. Sender ground must be common with battery negative.
5) Oil Pressure SW bar –Oil pressure, in bar, can be measured and displayed on the C3 module
using a standard Stewart Warner scale sender of 240 ohms –33 ohms. 240 = 0 bar and 33 =
