Engine Control Module
The Engine Control Module (ECM) consists of two major functions .
The function of the Engine Safety Protection Panel is to
monitor engine parameters
to alert the operator to any abnormal conditions
requiring attention as well as any operating limits that may be exceeded requiring the machine to be immediately shut down . Once the
engine is started, the ECM has primary control of the engine providing prealarms, alarms and safety shutdowns .
This attachment provides the operator with information necessary to understand the operation of the Engine Safety Precautions Panel .
The diagram below identifies the indications available on the Engine Safety Protection Panel which will be explained on the
