Operation and Use
Control Unit
Electronic circuitry within the EPS control unit monitors the state of the switches and sensors, and then
activates the corresponding alert indicator and control outputs when an alarm condition is sensed.
The EPS label displays the alert indicator or function that has faulted. A test switch located on the front of the
EPS control unit allows the operator to simulate a fault and test the complete system.
A connector with 12 contacts located on the rear of the EPS control unit facilitates the necessary wiring for the
inputs and outputs.

Note
This function uses an ac circuit. This reduces electrolysis and corrosion of the coolant level sensor. This will
assist to keep the probe in good working order.
Function 2
This input is configured to have a one-second delay prior to activating the corresponding alert indicator,
external audible alarm, idle and ETR control circuits. This circuit activates when the circuit changes state and
becomes open. If this function is not required, pin 8 must be connected to ground.
Typical use: Low engine oil pressure
Function 3
This input is configured to have a one-second delay prior to activating the corresponding alert indicator,
external audible alarm, idle and ETR control circuits. This circuit activates when the circuit changes state and
becomes open. If this function is not required, pin 9 must be connected to ground.
Typical use: High engine temperature
Function 4
This input is configured to have a one-second delay prior to activating the corresponding alert indicator,
external audible alarm, idle and ETR control circuits. This circuit activates when the circuit changes state and
becomes open. If this function is not required, pin 10 must be connected to ground.
Typical use: Low engine oil level or transmission temperature
Outputs
Alarm Control Output
This circuit is activated as soon as an alert indicator is active. This output remains active until the EPS control
unit has no alert indicator active or the key is switched off. This output is disabled until a start signal is sensed.
This allows servicing to be carried out with the key ON without the alarm sounding.
Idle Control
This circuit operates as a direct opposite to the alarm control output. It switches off when the alarm control
output is active. This output is used in conjunction with additional control systems that return the engine to
idle when an alert indicator is activated. If return to idle is not required, this circuit should not be connected.
Engine Control (ETR)
This circuit operates in a similar way to the idle control output; however, it has a 0 to 40-second adjustable
time delay. This time delay is factory set to 10 seconds, allowing the machine to run for 10 seconds after an
alert indicator has been activated. This circuit is an energised to run output. This output also incorporates an
automatic system override circuit which allows the EPS control unit to override the engine oil pressure switch
allowing the engine to be started. If shutdown is not required, this circuit should not be connected.
⚠Warning
When an alert indicator is active, special care should be taken to assess safety considerations which may arise
from shutting the machine down.
1. Will the machine be left uncontrollable, as shutdown affects the braking and steering of most machines?
2. Can the machine be parked in a safe environment?

Installation Guide
Note
If the EPS system is installed in conjunction with an idle timer and/or a fire status control unit, it is imperative
that the units are installed in the correct order. Failure to do so may result in the machine not shutting down
correctly.
Refer to the appendix at the end of this manual for the correct sequence.
Control Unit
1. The recommended location for the control unit is in the operator’s cabin in clear view and within easy reach
of the operator. Proximity to the operator is important as the control unit incorporates a system test
switch/circuitry that allows service personnel and/or operators to test the system.
2. Drill two 8 mm diameter holes with the hole centres being 100 mm apart to suit the M8*30 hex screw that
bolts to the control unit mounting bracket. Careful consideration should be given to the location of these
holes before drilling to ensure adequate accessibility to the electrical connection located on the rear of the
control unit.
3. Refer to the wiring table below and the wiring diagram in this manual to wire up the control unit. It is
recommended that the wiring loom be installed alongside the OEM engine wiring ensuring that it is secured
at regular intervals; this will provide protection from heat and abrasion, and any other excess damage that
may occur with extended machine operation. When securing the loom to the OEM engine wiring, ensure
that the loom is away from moving machine parts which could lead to loom damage.
4. Install the sensors/ switches (see below for more detail). All sensors/ switches should be installed using a
suitable thread sealant.
Note
RCT recommends that all electrical connections be treated with Electroguard grease (part number 2800).
Options
■If a Muirhead®Idle Timer is fitted, the machine will return to idle immediately.
■If a Muirhead®Shutdown Control unit is fitted, the machine will return to idle for the specified time and then
shut down.
Notes
■Perform a system test using the test procedure in the Calibration section in this manual.
■For information on testing individual functions and/or parts of the EPS system, refer to the additional testing
information in this manual.
Audible Alarm
There are three ways of mounting the audible warning alarm;
1. Through instrument panel (via a 29 mm hole)
2. Via an optional mounting bracket (part number 9655)
3. Under the instrument panel (cable tied to loom)

Oil/Fuel Level Switch
Every 2000 hours or six months:
1. It will be necessary to remove the switch for testing.
2. Remove switch and plug hole to prevent fluid loss.
3. Inspect the switch for physical damage.
4. Reconnect the 3-pin Deutsch plug.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
6. Verify the oil/fuel level alert indicator is now illuminated.
7. Immerse the threaded end of the switch in oil and verify that the oil/fuel level alert indicator is no longer
illuminated.
8. If the switch tests okay, refit the switch using thread sealant.
Test Procedure
The testing of the EPS control unit should ideally be performed
when the operator first checks the machine at the beginning of
each shift or when the machine is due for its scheduled service.
The testing of the engine protection control unit incorporates a
system test switch, this allows the service person and/or operator
to easily test the EPS control unit.
In order to test the EPS control unit, the following test procedure
should be followed.
Control Unit
1. Start and run the machine as per normal (raise the rpm
above idle if the idle control function is used). All alert
indicators on the control unit should light up and activate the
alarm on initial start-up, and cease immediately once the control unit has detected that the engine oil
pressure has been pressurised.
2. If the control unit has detected a fault upon start-up, for example, if the machine coolant level is low, the
fault will be present on the control unit upon start-up of the machine.
3. Press and hold the control unit test switch, all alert indicators on the control unit should illuminate
immediately and the alarm control circuit will activate, sounding the alarm.
4. Having depressed the system test switch for 10 seconds, the engine ETR output will turn off, shutting down
the engine if the engine shutdown option of the control unit is being utilised. If the shutdown option is not
being used, the machine will return to idle when an alert indicator is activated.
5. Once the system test switch has been released, the EPS system will return the machine to its normal
operation so that the machine can be restarted and returned to normal operation if machine shutdown has
occurred.
Note
The 10-second period is adjustable.
System Fault Procedure
1. If the test procedure has been performed and the system has not functioned as per above, report the
malfunction to the supervisor before operating the machine.
2. Should any fault (visual or audible) be detected while operating the machine or if the engine RPM drops
below its normal operating level, the machine should be parked safely ensuring the park brake is applied.
The engine should then be shut down, and the malfunction reported to the supervisor.
