3 — PROGRAMMABLE PARAMETERS:
Hourmeters
Setting the parameter to 0 means that the traction disable timer will never
expire and therefore never invoke the traction fault speed.
TRAC FAULT SPD
The
traction fault speed
parameter sets the maximum drive speed in the event
the traction disable timer expires or the total disable timer expires; it can be
adjusted between 0
–
100% of drive output, and applies to all modes.
The hourmeter service timers must be reset (programmed Off ) after service is
performed, using the Service Total and Service Traction parameters.
Occasionally, the vehicle may be brought in for servicing before its scheduled
maintenance is due—for example, because of some specific problem. You might want
to check the service timers at this time to see how many hours they have accumulated.
If routine maintenances is due shortly, you could perform it now instead, and reset
the appropriate service timer—thus avoiding an extra trip to the shop.
SERVICE TOTL
When the total service timer expires, the controller automatically sets the
service total
parameter On. The Service Total parameter must then be pro-
grammed Off to indicate the appropriate service has been performed.
If a vehicle is brought in for service before a service warning is issued, you
can check the accumulated total service hours. Plug in the 1311 programmer
and go to the Monitor menu. Multiply the
“
Tot Srvc X25
”
value by 25 and add
the
“
+Tot Srvc
”
value; this is how many total hours have elapsed since the total
service timer was last reset.
When service is performed before the total service timer expires, the
Service Total parameter must be programmed On and then Off to reset it.
SERVICE TRAC
When the traction service timer expires, the controller automatically sets the
service traction
parameter On. The Service Traction parameter must then be
programmed Off to indicate the appropriate service has been performed.
If a vehicle is brought in for service before a service warning is issued, you
can check the accumulated traction service hours. Plug in the 1311 program-
mer and go to the Monitor menu. Multiply the
“
Trac Srvc X25
”
value by 25
and add the
“
+Trac Srvc
”
value; this is how many traction hours have elapsed
since the traction service timer was last reset.
When service is performed before the traction service timer expires, the
Service Traction parameter must be programmed On and then Off to reset it.
