VIMS Data Application Guide – Version 1.06 26 July 04
This guide is intended to help Caterpillar dealers, customers and employees to take full advantage
of the extensive amount of data collected by VIMS on Caterpillar Mining machines.
Analysis of VIMS data can be beneficial for Production and Operations Departments to help:
Illustrate poor Payload management practices
Overloading and conformance with CAT’s 10/10/20 Payload Rule
Underloading, payload variation and poor load placement
Identify Operator training needs
Loading techniques
Machine operation; use of retarder, gear selection, engine overspeed
Identify changes in haulroad design to improve productivity
Identify the need for improvements to haulroad maintenance practices
It can also be used by Maintenance Departments (dealer and customer) to help:

More quickly identify and troubleshoot machine / component problems
Identify longer-term degradation of components and systems
Identify the need for tune-ups to optimise component performance and service life
Confirm that service activities have been successful :
Tune-ups and minor component adjustments
Ensure correct performance of newly installed components
Allow components to be changed on-condition rather than at fixed-intervals
This guide has been divided into two sections: VIMS for Maintenance and VIMS for Operations.
VIMS for Maintenance is further broken down by system and component with more detail on how
to apply the various VIMS operations available that have proven useful in the field.
The guide makes reference to several software programs:

VIMSpc used for downloading data from machines and some basic analysis tasks
VIMS Supervisor used for more advanced data analysis
Both are available through the Caterpillar Literature System and are mandatory to achieve the
benefits outlined in this document.

VIMS for Maintenance
Engine (all VIMS machines)
Exhaust Temperatures
Trend the difference between cylinder banks (RH minus LH) using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor
Used to confirming the condition of injectors and valves as the engine ages over time.
Recommended Analysis Period: Every 2 – 4 weeks using 3 months / 2 000 hours of operating data
Expected Values: ΔT stays within 20 ºC (38 ºF)
Action Trigger #1: > +/- 20 ºC (35 ºF)
Action Required: Run multi-cylinder cut-out test looking for poor injectors.
Perform Valve clearance adjustment at next PM.
Action Trigger #2: > +/- 50 ºC (90 ºF)
Action Required: Run multi-cylinder cut-out test looking for a ‘dead’ fuel injector.
Check for a guttered or cordal valve failure.
Trend each bank (LH and RH) separately using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor
Look for increases or decreases that may indicate a dropping off of performance in:
Fuel Injectors (leakage, blockages in nozzle, poor spray patterns, poor timing, etc.)
Turbochargers (wheel rubbing due to bearing wear that slows turbo, lowers Boost pressure)
Also useful for problem solving: Low power complaints, Engine overheating, and acceleration
response time.
Air Filter Restriction (102/102A)

Trend Air Filter Restriction using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor
A new air filter typically runs a restriction of about 3 – 3.5 kPa (0.5 psi) with the engine derating
due to excessive intake restriction at 7 kPa (1 psi). If site conditions permit, through excellent
control of dust in the mine, it may be possible to change the air filter on condition (i.e. when it
reaches 6 – 6.5 kPa) rather than changing / cleaning it at a predetermined hour interval.
Recommended Analysis Period: Several days before PM service is due using 1000 hours of data
Expected Values: Restriction < 5.0 kPa (0.75 psi, 20 in. Water).
Action Trigger: Restriction > 5.0 kPa (0.75 psi, 20 in. Water) or such that filter cannot wait
until next PM*
Action Required: Check all three pressure sensors involved in these readings.
Individual pressure readings at engine idle/off should be similar, i.e. close to
atmospheric absolute pressure (100 kPa [14 psi] at sea level, 60 kPa [9 psi] at
4000 meters above sea level). In addition, verify pressure drop at high idle
versus differential pressure indicators (pneumatic). Failure in any sensor
could cause false indications to change air filters.
If sensors show no problems, replace / clean air cleaner elements
Page 4
* Knowledge of air filter life history for your particular site conditions will need to be developed to
determine whether air filter extensions are possible on the site.
If air filters will run only one PM service and are expected to plug to the point of engine derate
before the next PM service is due then they cannot be extended unless efficient changing of air
filters in the field is planned for and achieved. If however they will run successfully to at least the
next PM service, plan to resample several days prior to this PM and assess whether they can be
further extended. Repeat this analysis until a point is reached where they will not reach the next
PM without engine derating.
If air filters are cleaned and reused systematically, plan a strategy to continuously test the quality of
the air filters after cleaning. For example:
Verify maximum number of filter cleaning using random sampling
Make a small hole in a used filter (for example using a nail) and send it to the cleaner. If the
filter is cleaned and returned for machine installation, the cleaning process needs to be
revised.
Check dimensions of filters after being cleaned: length, internal and external diameters.
Compare with new ones and run ether tests to verify adequate sealing as necessary.
*Applies to all machines.
Engine Coolant Temperature (117)

Review Engine Coolant Temperature Histograms using VIMSpc.
Look for Coolant Temperatures outside the accepted range, which may indicate an overheating or
overcooling problem. Overheating may be caused by blockage or plugging of the radiator, low
coolant level. Overcooling is typically caused by thermostats that stick partially open.
Recommended Analysis Period: Every 2 – 4 weeks using 2 months / 1000 hours of operating data
Expected Values: Coolant Temperature between 80 and 100 ºC (175 – 210 ºF).
Action Trigger #1: Coolant Temperature Histogram events < 80 ºC (175 ºF).
Action Required: Verify machine application. Consider that long periods of downhill machine
loaded in cold weather applications may cause overcooling and may
necessitate use of shutters, covers or an active fan control
If applicable, verify correct actuation of active fan control (hydraulic clutch,
hydraulic motor, Flexxaire Fan control, etc.).
Check thermostats to ensure they are all closing completely.
Replace if necessary as a set.
CAT recommends changing thermostats every 6000 hours or yearly.
Action Trigger #2: Coolant Temperature Histogram Events > 100 ºC (210 ºF).
Action Required: If CAT ELC is used, check coolant colour (Light red, not dark) and smell
(sweet, not ammoniacal), change if necessary. Check for solid black particles
(combustion residuals) in the coolant.
Page 5
Search for “low coolant flow” events. Verify pump flow and sensor
operation.
Check for cylinder head cracks or head gasket problems.
Check radiator is not plugged with mud or debris.
If OK, check fan belts and tensioner for correct operation.
Caterpillar recommend changing thermostats every 12 months or 6 000 hours.
It is also recommended that Coolant temperature sensors be checked periodically by comparing
against ambient temperatures if the machine has been down for several days. For more information,
check “Know your coolant system” Media Number SEBD0518.
*Applies to all machines.
Aftercooler Coolant Temperature (101)

Review Aftercooler Coolant Temperature Trend using VIMSpc or VIMS Supervisor
Look for increasing Aftercooler Temperature trend that may indicate core is being coated by oil that
is leaking from a turbocharger bearing, or may be caused by plugging of the SCAC core.
Expected Values: Aftercooler Temperature Trend should remain constant
Action Trigger: Aftercooler Temperature rises above maximum specified value
Action Required: Assess core condition and change-out if required
Page 6
Boost Pressure (108)
Trend Turbo Boost using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor
Look for decreasing Boost pressure as turbo bearings wear and wheels drag
Look for problems in waste-gate performance (sticking valve, etc.) where applicable
Recommended Analysis Period: Every 4 weeks using 4 months / 3000 hours of operating data
Expected Values: Boost Pressure should remain constant
Action Trigger #1: Boost Pressure falls below 24 psi for 793 ATY/4GZ and 797
Boost Pressure falls below 30 psi for 1HL and 4AR
Action Required: Check fuel pressure. Perform a pressure test of fuel galleries in the engine.
Assess injector condition.
Assess bearing/wheel condition and change-out if required
Action Trigger #2: Boost rises above maximum specified value
Action Required: Check electrical resistance of wastegate control valve solenoid. Check seat
and ball valve at control valve for wear. Check air leaks at wastegate air
supply. Check air pressure at supply line 50-52 psi (340-360 kPa).
Engine Oil Pressure

Trend Engine Oil Pressure (gauge) using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor
Look for decreasing Engine Oil Pressure as pump wears
Look for problems in oil pump performance (sticking valve, etc.) where applicable
Use SOS to look for degradation in the oil that may indicate fuel dilution or viscosity breakdown
Expected Values: High Engine Oil Pressure should remain constant
Low Engine Oil Pressure should remain constant
Action Trigger: High Engine Oil Pressure < 47 psi for 793 ATY/4GZ and 797
Low Engine Oil Pressure < 30 psi for 793 ATY/4GZ and 797
High Engine Oil Pressure < 45 psi for 1HL and 4AR
Low Engine Oil Pressure < 23 psi for 1HL and 4AR
Action Required: Compare Iron trend at the SOS history and assess pump condition and
change-out if required.
Use in conjunction with Engine Oil SOS analysis to identify changes in conditions that may
indicate oil quality issues, changes in machine application (i.e. changing fuel rates), changes in new
oil spec or quality, reduction in combustion efficiency due to turbo / fuel injector issues (i.e. higher
sooting, increased heat / oil oxidation).
Page 7
Powertrain (OHT)
Torque Converter and Transmission
Trend Torque Converter Lock-up Clutch Slip (TC LUC) (130B) & Transmission clutch
engagement (slip) times (132) using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor.
Look for increasing slip times as springs wear in the control valve, decreased pump flow and
pressures change.
Recommended Analysis Period : Every 4 weeks using 3 months / 2000 hours of operating data
Expected values: Compare against expected slip-time values tabulated below
Also compare like machines at your site to establish local ‘bogeys’
Action Trigger: Slip time > 0.9 s for 793 ATY/4GZ, 1HL and 4AR
Slip time > 0.8 s for 797
Action Required: At low hours; readjust valve timing to achieve desired slip time
At high hours replace springs in the TC LUC control valve*
*(Replace spring in the TC control valve if greater than 6000 hours old and slip times are
increasing. This is typically not required in Transmission control valve stations due to lower cycle
operation.)
Once an adjustment has been made, confirm TC LUC or Transmission clutch slip time is back in
acceptable range by reviewing Trend data several days after the adjustment. Readjust if necessary to
achieve desired time. This process should also be used to confirm the correct operation of newly
installed rebuilt components. Collect several days data then download and Trend to ensure slip
times are as expected.

Trans 5 - 6 upshift 0.575 – 0.65 0.65 – 0.775 0.675 - 0.75 0.7 – 0.8
Also review TC LUC & Transmission slip time Histogram using VIMSpc against expected values.
Recommended Analysis Period : Every 4 weeks using 3 months / 2000 hours of operating data
Expect Values: Ensure 90% of values are occurring < maximum acceptable value*
Action Trigger: Analysis shows > 10% of values are > maximum acceptable value*
Action Required: At low hours; readjust valve timing to achieve desired slip time
Page 8
At high hours replace springs in the TC LUC control valve
(Replace spring if greater than 6000 hours old and slip times are increasing)
* It is recommended that site-specific slip time values be used wherever possible to allow closer
monitoring of slip times for the Torque Converter, and all Transmission Gear slip times. By using
the Fleet Trend function in VIMS Supervisor when components are in optimum condition a set of
expected values can be developed that allows closer tolerances than published factory ranges.
Once these values have been established it is possible to adjust the Histogram Exception Criteria
table in VIMSpc to reflect tighter site-specific values. To do so open VIMSpc, Report then
Exception Criteria Set-up. It is then possible to adjust the Upper & Lower Boundary limits to better
match site-specific machine performance.
For instance, instead of allowing a maximum slip time of 1.2 seconds for a 3 – 4 shift on a 793C
4AR truck as set by the factory configuration, the Maximum Boundary limit can be moved in to
about 1.0 seconds. This allows the detection of excessive slip times much earlier than waiting for
the clutch to reach a point where > 10% are greater than 1.2 seconds. Especially since a healthy
transmission makes the 3 - 4 shift in the 0.6 – 0.8 second range. By reviewing the data on a regular
basis (as outlined above) excessive slip times are detected and adjustments can be made to bring
clutch performance back to an optimum level.
This process can be use to fine tune all Torque Converter & Transmission slip time parameters,
while changes can also be made to Target values to further tighten detection criteria.
Once this process has been completed for each VIMS machine on site it is possible to use the
Histogram Standard Report Summary to list all Histogram parameters in one table and to quickly
determine (via the Total High column) which parameters are exceeding optimum values.
Appropriate action can then be planned and undertaken.
Refer to the VIMS Data Management Methods Bulletin SELD7022 for additional information on
the use of TC LUC and Transmission clutch slip time analysis. SELD7022 is Bulletin No. 5-1 of the
VIMS Application Manual SELD7001 released 6/1996.
Differential Oil Temperature

Review Differential Oil Temperature Trend using VIMSpc or VIMS Supervisor
Look for an increasing oil temperature trend that may indicate the machine is being used on longer
haul cycles, or if a cooler is fitted, may indicate cooler function or effect is reducing through core
plugging or actuation problems.
Expected Values: Differential Oil Temperature Trend should remain constant but may vary
slightly due to changes in ambient temperature conditions.
Action Trigger: Differential Temperature rises above maximum recommended value or
significantly above typical operating value.
Action Required: Assess core condition of cooler (if fitted) or possible changes to machine
application (particularly longer hauls and higher haul speeds),
Check differential oil level. Verify specifications of oil used.
High temperatures can be caused by final drives as well. Remove magnetic
plugs of both final drives and differential and check for debris. Take an oil
sample and check oil physical conditions (colour and smell).
Page 9
It is advisable to use label thermometers (P/N 8T-2822) on final drives and differential for easy
field temperature follow-up. Stick the decal on a clean area of the component.

Torque Converter Outlet Oil Temperature
Trend Torque Converter Oil Outlet Temperature using VIMSpc or VIMS Supervisor.
Look for an increasing oil temperature trend that may indicate the machine is being used more
aggressively in the face. It may also indicate poor blasting or tightly knit material, a very tight
loading area, increased travel on ramps or incorrect use of the left pedal (ICTC control).
Expected Values: TC Oil Temperature Trends should remain constant but may vary slightly
due to changes in ambient temperature conditions.
Action Trigger: TC Oil Temperature rises above maximum recommended value or
significantly above typical operating temperature for the site.
Action Required: Time spent in the face is typically the cause of elevated oil temperatures,
which may be due to poor operator technique, incorrect GET selection or
poor material conditioning.
Verify TC inlet and outlet oil pressure settings. Verify impeller clutch
pressure settings at different rimpull positions.
Assess cooler condition.

using VIMSpc or VIMS Supervisor.
Data is used for confirming that nitrogen and oil charge levels in each pair of suspension cylinders
(Front Right/Left and Rear Right/Left) are in an acceptable condition.
Correct Oil/Nitrogen charge condition is required to ensure correct operation of the suspension
system in maintained which minimises stresses into the mainframe of the machine. It also ensures a
comfortable ride for the operator and maintains Payload Monitor accuracy within acceptable levels.
Recommended Analysis Period: Several days before PM service using 1000 hours of data
Expected Values: ΔP stays within +/- 375 kPa (55 psi) across each axle group.
Field information suggests typical operating pressures of:
Front axle is in a range - 200 kPa +/- 375 kPa (-30 +/- 55 psi)
Rear axle is in a range 0 +/- 375 kPa (0 +/- 55 psi)
Action Trigger: > +/- 375 kPa (50 psi) across the front or rear axle groups
Action Required: Check empty suspension cylinder height (amount of chrome rod showing)
and if this is below expected / published values drop the oil and nitrogen
charge from the cylinder and recharge.
Verify that cylinder rods have adequate grease lubrication.

VIMS Event List (all VIMS machines)
The VIMS Event List collects system alarm and other condition events that can be used to identify
machine system problems and the need for additional Operator training. The Event List can be
reviewed using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor, while VIMS Supervisor also allows the analysis of
VIMS Events over an entire fleet.
VIMS Events can be broken into two different sources or causes:
Machine System Events and Operator Induced Events
Machine System Events

Machine System Events are those events caused by components or systems on the machine that fail,
or have a critical parameter move outside expected or desirable limits for the on-going health of the
machine. They result from operation of the machine within expected operating parameters.
Examples of Machine System Events include:
Sensor or switch failures
Over/Under-voltage, Open Circuit, Shorted, Erratic or Intermittent
Overheating Alarms
Aftercooler or Engine Coolant
High or Low Pressure Alarms
Engine Oil, Steering Oil, Brake Air Systems
Suspension Cylinder Charge
Turbo Boost Pressure, Crankcase
Filter Plugging / Bypass
Air Cleaner, Engine Oil, Fuel, Hydraulic Circuit
Brake Drag
Chip Detectors
Low Levels Alarms
Coolant, Engine Oil, Transmission Oil
When reviewing VIMS Event data it can be helpful to define when and under what circumstances
VIMS Events are being generated. Is there a pattern to the frequency of events being captured in the
Event List? Consider whether the Events are occurring:
On one machine or across the fleet
Is it a problem with a single machine or could it be the haul itself causing the problem?
On one shift, all shifts, with only one operator
Is it poor operating practice by one operator that can be addresses with additional training?
Is it a ‘shift related’ issue such as a lack of night shift supervision?
Only when the trucks are operating on one particular haul. Is there something on that haul that
is causing the problem such as:
A steep grade with a tight corner at the bottom of the hill (Brake Overheating)
A rough section in the middle of the main haulroad (RAC alarms)
A tight Loading Zone with lots of low speed manoeuvring (Low Steering Pressure)
Page 14
Only during certain weather or seasonal conditions
High rainfall, monsoonal conditions, soft spots in the roads
High ambient temperatures, low humidity, excessive dust
Operator Induced Events are explained in more detail in the VIMS for Operations section.

VIMS for Operations
Payload Data Management
Basic Asset Utilisation
Use the Payload Summary in VIMSpc to display data on the customer’s utilisation of the
machine, and gives some basic information on the haul cycle. While local site conditions and the
layout of the mine will differ site to site, it is useful to trend these parameters on a regular basis
(weekly / monthly) to help the customer in his efforts to get more productivity from his machines.
Definition of VIMSpc Payload Summary Time Distribution parameters:

Operational Hours:
The amount/percent of hours in the analysis period the key switch in the machine was ON
Non-Operational Hours:
The amount/ percentage of time in the analysis period the key switch was in the OFF position
Loading Time:
The amount/percentage of the Operational Time the machine spent under the loading tool
Hauling Time:
The amount/percentage of the Operational Time the machine spent travelling Empty or Loaded
Waiting Time:
The amount/percentage of the Operational Time the machine spent stationary / not moving
VIMSpc Payload Summary gives basic Production Data which includes:

Total tonnes moved in the period
The average payload hauled per cycle
Total number of loading cycles
The average number of loaded cycles per hour
Average Loading time
Average Fuel consumption per hour, per cycle, per kilometre/mile
Maximum / Minimum payloads hauled
Basic Payload Distribution information set up for each Model Code using the path:
Report, Production, Truck, Analysis Set-up
Complete Payload cycle data is available if Payload Detail (Cycle Basics w/- Fuel) is selected.
The principal problem with using VIMSpc for Payload analysis is that it can only look at one truck
at a time. If we wish to analyse the performance of a fleet of trucks this is time consuming.
Page 16
Production Efficiency and Productivity
A better approach is to use the Fleet Payload Summary in VIMS Supervisor. This gives similar
information to VIMSpc but allows analysis of complete fleets of trucks once fleet details have been
defined in the Utilities section.
An additional feature of VIMS Supervisor is the ability to present much of the useful summary data
in graphical form. This can be a help when presenting data to customer Production / Operations
people.
VIMS Supervisor Single/Fleet Payload Charts include:

Cycle Time Distribution:
Shows the proportion of total operating time the fleet spent in the five main phases of the
hauling operation
Loading
Stopped (Empty / Loaded)
Travelling (Empty / Loaded)
Adding the Total Stopped time (Empty and Loaded) gives a useful parameter that can be used
to promote more efficient operation. Stopped time can be positively affected by better
management of shift changes & meal/rest/prayer breaks, shovel set-up & material conditioning
and better dispatch control of the fleet (which reduces wait time at the shovel).
Adding Loading time to the total stopped time gives a parameter (Total Idle time) that can also
be used to identify areas where inefficiencies in the operation can be addressed. Combining this
number with the amount of fuel burned at idle (for in the Cumulative data record) can help the
customer quantify the cost of excessive idling and help justify improvement programs.
Payload Distribution Histogram:
Shows the distribution of payload and can be configured for site-specific Payload Targets and
Payload Ranges. We recommend that an acceptable Payload Range for use in discussions with
customers is equal to Target Payload +/- 10%.
A high proportion of loads outside the Payload Range are an opportunity to work with the
customer to tighten the variation in their loading operation.
Underloading leads to poor productivity, which customers often see as a reason to load heavy.
It can be caused by:
Poor material conditioning; large rocks or tightly ‘knitted’ material that wont ‘flow’
into the bucket causing poor bucket fill factors; often caused by insufficient blasting
Poor operator technique that can lead to poor bucket fill factors
Job set-ups that hinder production such as low bench heights or tight digging angles
Incorrect GET selection that results in poor material penetration
Overloading, with a payload distribution outside CAT’s 10/10/20 Payload Rule is often seen as
the most productive loading strategy by our customers. If consideration is given to the total cost
of this practice it is often not the best approach to gain the lowest cost per tonne/ton.
Page 17
Overloading can be caused by:
Poor bucket / truck body match
Incorrect estimation of material density
The addition of extra passes even when the body is full which can also lead to
excessive spillage in the loading zone and on the haulroad
Poor management of payload (Overloading) can result in:
Additional stress in powertrain and mainframe components and shortened
component life
Extended cycles times, especially if the machine drops to a lower gear to get up the
grade. This is often the cause of ‘low power’ complaints from the customer.
Increased fuel consumption due to lower gears / speeds on grade
Reduced tyre life from overloading and from additional spillage
Refer to the Payload Management section for additional details on managing payload
Load Time Distribution:
Shows the distribution of loading times and can be configured for site-specific loading
situation.
A large range of Loading Times rather than a tight distribution suggests either several loading
tools are being used on the site (which often causes the chart to have several ‘humps’ in the
distribution but may also indicate that a number of the factors outlined in the Underloading
section may be present and need addressing.
Productivity:
Shows the productivity of the fleet in tonnes/tons per hour over actual or a 24 hour day
While some of these issues can be affected by circumstances outside the control of the customer
many offer the opportunity for closer control or better management to improve fleet productivity.
While productivity is usually not the primary concern of the dealer, it offers an excellent
opportunity to demonstrate the value of VIMS Production data to the customer and to demonstrate
the value of the CAT / Dealer value chain.
Payload Management
VIMS Supervisor has a function entitled Payload Management that allows quick verification that
single trucks and truck fleets are maintaining payload performance within CAT’s 10/10/20
guidelines. To use this function it is necessary to set details on Production Range (suggested Target
Payload +/- 10%) and Target Payload for each machine that is to be included in the analysis. Use
the Utilities, Set Payload Targets and Define Fleet Groups functions to speed analysis of regularly
reviewed truck fleets.
If trucks are continuously used in groups to haul differing materials (i.e. a waste fleet and an ore
fleet) it may prove useful to create fleet groups around these functions that allow closer analysis of
the specific loading tools and haul cycle features of the specific group.
Select the period and fleet to be analysed and Payload Management will display the number or
percentage of loads Below, Within and Above their Payload Ranges, as well as displaying the
number/percentage of loads greater than 110% of Target Payload, and greater than 120% of Target
Payload. These last two numbers show compliance against the 10/10/20 rule that states:
Page 18
“The mean (average) of the Payload Distribution shall not exceed the Target Payload and no more
than 10% of loads can exceed of 110% of Target Payload but no single load shall exceed 120% of
Target Payload.
Use of Payload Filters

It is not uncommon for VIMS Payload Monitor to occasionally record data that is clearly in error.
This may include several loads per 1000 that:
Have a zero or very low Payload Weight
Have an extremely high Payload Weight well beyond the capacity of the body or material
density being loaded
Have Total or segment Cycle Times of only a few seconds
Have a Loader Pass Count equal to zero or one
Have very short Haul Distances that are clearly not correct for the typical haul
In cases such as this it is prudent to run the Payload data through a filter that removes these
‘nuisance’ load cycles and gives the customer greater confidence that the Payload information
being presented is correct. Experience shows that these nuisance loads typically account of a very
small percentage of the entire payload database (< 2 in 1000) so their removal does not affect the
overall analysis of the data.
To condition the data a ‘filter’ can be formulated in the Payload Filter Definition function of
VIMS Supervisor. This capability is active in both the Truck Payload Summary and Fleet
Payload Summary functions of VIMS Supervisor.
Select the Filter Selection tab, select Edit Filters and Add a Group. Enter a name for the group, and
hit OK. We recommend that separate filters be developed for each truck model on site such that
specific maximum payload limits are available.
We now need to ADD Conditions which will govern how the data will be excluded from the
sample we are going to analyse. Recommended conditions are:
(example is for a 793C truck with a Target Payload of 225 tonnes being 3 pass loaded with average
bucket capacity of 75 tonnes and a typical loading time of 2.5 minutes)
A Low Cut; payload weight must be greater than this number (typically one bucket pass).
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Payload Criteria, >= Limit, 75 tonnes
Hit OK then Cancel then ADD to add the next filter condition.
A High Cut; payload weight must be less than this number (suggest 140% Target Payload)
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Payload Criteria, <= Limit, 315 tonnes
Once the filter set has been defined select Close, then Select the filter name you have just built and
check the box ⌧ that makes the filter active.
Typically using a filter to remove very low and very high loads is enough to remove the majority of
nuisance loads in the database. Filter conditions can also be added to condition the data to remove
other factors that may be noticed during analysis, or that may help generate the right data
conditions for further analysis.
A Loader Pass Cut; number of loader passes must be less than this number:
(five passes in this example if the loader typically loads the truck in only 3 passes)
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Loader Passes Criteria, <= Limit, 5
Page 19
A Load Time Cut; total loading time must be less than this number:
(5 minutes in this example which is twice the standard loading time is only 2.5 minutes)
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Load Time Criteria, <= Limit, 00:05:00
Hit OK the Cancel then ADD to add the next filter condition.
A Haul Distance Cut; total cycle time must be greater than this number:
(0.4 km in this example if a normal haul is 0.6 km minimum)
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Haul Distance Criteria => Limit, 0.4
Hit OK then Cancel the ADD to add the next filter condition or Close then Select and
activate the filter.
It is also advisable to check that all payloads over 120% of Target Payload are being dumped at the
shovel, or at least not carried more than 0.3 km (1/5 mile). To set this filter key ADD a Group
An Overload condition; Payload weight must be heavier than this number
(270 tonnes in this example which is 120% of the 225 tonne Target Payload)
Select Logic, Inside AND Parameter, Payload Criteria, >= Limit 270 tonnes
Hit OK then Cancel then ADD to add the next filter condition
A Distance condition; Haul distance with the overload must be greater than this number
Select logic, Inside AND Parameter, Loaded Travel Distance Criteria >= Limit 0.3 km
Hit OK and the filter is complete. Now CLOSE and select the filter name you have just
built. Check the box to activate the filter.
In the Payload Management screen, a simple filter is available that cuts out loads below a certain
payload. Access to this function is through the Filter Selection tab. We recommend that this be set
at the payload weight equal to a single pass from the loading tool on the site.
Haulroad Design and Maintenance

VIMS datalogger data can be collected and analysed using the Application Severity Analysis
(ASA) software program to identify areas of the mine haulroad that:
Can cause high stress and potential loss of component life in OHT mainframes and
powertrain components
Reducing productivity efficiency through slowing the machine due to high rolling
resistance, pinch-points, excessive gear shifting, etc.
Refer to the Application Severity Analysis (ASA) Application Guide available through the Mining
Project Managers’ Tookit in the CAT Knowledge Network. The full web address is:
https://kn.cat.com/guides.cfm?id=6232
This site also makes available an ASA User Guide and the ASA software executable.
Operator Assessment and Training

As previously explained, the VIMS Event List collects system alarm and other condition events
that can be used to identify machine system problems and the need for additional Operator training.
The Event List can be reviewed using VIMSpc / VIMS Supervisor, while VIMS Supervisor also
allows the analysis of VIMS Events over an entire fleet.
Machine System Events have been covered previously. This section will address the other major
source of VIMS Events, those that are Operator Induced Events.
Page 20
VIMS Event List - Operator Induced Events
Operator induced events are those most likely caused by incorrect operation of the machine. In all
but the most blatant cases of willful machine ‘abuse’ they should be used to identify opportunities
for additional operator training requirements rather than in any disciplinary action.
We recommend that the customer’s Training organisation receive VIMS Event reports on a regular
basis so that individual needs can be identified and additional training scheduled.
Reasons for Operator Induced Events include:

These can be cause inadvertently because of a lack of operator training in the areas of:
Correct operating practices for the machine
A lack of understanding of the capability of the machine
A lack of understanding of the systems operation of the machine
Incorrect acknowledgement or required action taken during VIMS Event Alarm
It may be caused by operating conditions that inadvertently cause the event such as:
Haulroad design or maintenance issues (including the Loading and Dump Zones)
Material conditions at the loading face
It can also be caused by a conscious effort on the part of the operator to operate the machine
outside its design capability / envelope. In some cases this may be direct ‘abuse’ of the machine
through the operator’s decision, or as directed by mine management.
Examples of Operator Induced Events include:

Off Highway Trucks (OHT)
Brake Overheating in OHTs due to incorrect gear selection or incorrect brake/retarder
operation on grades, tight corners, lack of passing areas, very steep grades
Engine Overspeed in OHTs due to incorrect gear selection or incorrect brake/retarder
operation on steep grades, tight corners, lack of passing areas, very steep grades
Transmission Abuse in OHTs due to coasting in Neutral, selection of Reverse/First at high
engine rpm, selection of inappropriate gears for the ground speed of the truck
Payload Overloading despite loading lights in OHT, Payload displays and Payload
Management controls on the truck
Body Up Events in OHTs caused by moving away from the Dump Zone with the truck body
still raised above the mainframe rails
Brake Overstoke in OHTs caused by parking with the Retarder lever ON. A dangerous
condition if the Park Brake is not also engaged as trucks may roll away
Wheel Loaders (WTL)
Torque Converter Overheating in WTL due to incorrect machine operation in tight digging
conditions and poorly blasted or tightly knitted material
Hydraulic Oil Overheating in WTL due to incorrect machine operation in tight digging
conditions and/or poorly blasted material
Brake Overheating in WTL due to excessive high speed load-and-carry operation
Page 21
Hydraulic Excavators (HEX)
Hydraulic Oil Overheating in HEX due to incorrect machine operation in tight digging
conditions and/or poorly blasted material
As for Machine System Event, it is useful to try and define whether a pattern exists that might help
formulate a solution to the problem. These patterns may conform to similar patterns:
On one machine or across the fleet?
On one shift, all shifts, with only one operator
Only when the trucks are operating on one particular haul. Is there something on that haul that
is causing the problem:
A steep grade, tight corners, rough sections in the haulroad, a tight Loading Zone
Only during certain weather or seasonal conditions
This guide is currently open for review and all comments re: critical parameter trigger values,
sampling rates and frequencies, etc., or additional value-adding parameters to monitor are most

VIMS BULLETIN
Wheel Loader Signature Test - 994AKIT & 994D
Intended audience:
Introduction
This Bulletin enables dealers and their customers to benefit from use of the Caterpillar VIMS to measure
and record machine data while the wheel loader is operated under specific sets of conditions. Every
effort has been made to provide the most current and relevant information known to Caterpillar Inc.
Since Caterpillar makes ongoing changes and improvements to its products, this Bulletin must be used
with the latest technical information available from Caterpillar to ensure such changes and improvements
are incorporated where applicable.
Summary
This Bulletin describes a signature test that can be run on an operational 994AKIT & 994D Wheel
Loaders equipped with VIMS to record and analyze vital machine information data. The data can then be
compared to earlier data from the same machine or to other similar machines in the fleet to assist in
identifying major component degradation or problems that have gone undetected by more conventional
inspections.
Signature tests include:
1. Brake System Testing and Operation Temperature

2. Unloaded Engine Test
3. Hydraulic Tests
4. Converter Stall Test
5. Double Converter Stall Test
6. Impeller Clutch Tests
Data is analyzed using VIMSpc and in some cases a data analysis program. Data from signature tests is
primarily used as a trending indicator. If tests are run when the loader is new and repeated at 2,000 or
4,000 service hours, the rate of degradation for various machine systems can be monitored and repair
scheduled in a cost-effective manner.
Data from these tests can also be used for evaluation of loader performance. Some system specific data
analysis techniques are described that can be used to identify potential problems with the loader. These
problems are such that it is unlikely that they are severe enough to cause a fault to be displayed on the
SELD7023-02
monitor, logged on the event recorder, or to be noticed by the operator. However, early identification of
these problems will allow timely troubleshooting and repair scheduling, if needed. As a result,
unscheduled repairs can be reduced.
If the loader meets the requirements for these tests it can be expected to give normal performance during
a loading cycle.

Stationary Tests
The purpose of the stationary tests is to record key information on the engine, powertrain, hydraulic, and
electrical systems that is monitored by the VIMS sensors. Information from the stationary tests can be
compared to:
1. Expected normal values,

2. Earlier tests run on the same machine,
3. Tests run on similar machines.
When the information is analyzed and compared, the overall condition of the machine systems can be
determined without the need for more time consuming installation of service tools.
The data logger and event recorder should be downloaded and reset before beginning these tests. All
the tests should be completed sequentially with the data logger turned on. Estimated time to run all 6
tests is 0.5 hours if the machine is at operating temperature. If systems are not already warm, additional
time will be required.
The machine should be positioned on a dry, hard level surface at least 50 meters from other machines,
structures or people.
Test 1: Brake System Testing and Operating Temperatures

The purpose of this test is to warm the machine to normal operating temperatures for later tests, and to
determine if the brake system is functional. The test is not intended to measure maximum brake holding
effort. Brake holding effort required to hold a machine at a specific engine rpm will vary from machine to
machine due to differences in engine setting, power train efficiency, and in brake holding capability.
1. Warm the engine, powertrain, and hydraulics such that

a. Coolant temperature is 175 – 200°F.
b. Torque converter outlet oil temperature is 190 – 230°F.
c. Implement oil is 120 – 190°F.
2. Return the engine speed to low idle.
3. Turn on the data logger by typing DLOG on the VIMS keypad.
4. Apply the service brakes, move the bucket off the ground, and disengage the parking brake.
5. Move the transmission to 2nd speed forward.
6. Gradually increase the engine speed to maximum engine speed. Hold at maximum engine speed
for 5 – 10 seconds. The machine should not move forward.
7. Turn off the data logger by typing DLOG on the VIMS keypad.
8. If the loader creeps forward, schedule necessary repairs to the brake system.
9. Place the bucket on the ground, move the hydraulic control levers to the HOLD position, and shut
down the engine.
Test 2: Unloaded Engine Tests

The purposes of these tests are to record the engine performance during transient and steady state
operating conditions.
1. Turn the key switch to the ‘ON’ position, allow VIMS to go through self-diagnostic test.
2. Turn on the data logger.
3. Wait 10 seconds.
5. Run engine at low idle for 10 seconds.
6. Leave the transmission in neutral and gradually increase engine speed to 900, 1000, 1200, 1400,
1600 RPM, and high idle. At each engine speed, engage the throttle lock and hold for 10
seconds. Engine RPM should be within +25 RPM of the desired engine speed.
3
7. Return engine speed to low idle for 10 seconds.
8. Leave transmission in neutral and gradually increase engine speed from low idle to high idle in 15
seconds. Hold at high idle for 10 seconds.
10. With the transmission in neutral, quickly accelerate engine speed from low idle to high idle. Hold
at high idle for 10 seconds.
11. Repeat step 9 - 10.
12. Return engine speed to low idle.
13. Turn off data logger.
Important data being recorded electronically by VIMS

• Engine speed
• Engine oil pressure
• Engine coolant temperature
Test 3: Hydraulic Tests

The purposes of these tests are to record the cylinder cycle times and the main relief pressures in the
implement circuits. This determines if the hydraulic pumps are operating efficiently. The implement oil
should be at operating temperature for meaningful test results.
Note: Before raising the bucket, make sure overhead clearance is adequate. Hitting wires or structures
can cause machine damage and/or personal injury. Tilt cylinder cycle times are not measured
because position data for this cylinder is not recorded on this model.
3a: Cycle Times Lift Cylinder - Raise

1. Engage the parking brake at low idle.
3. With the bucket empty and resting flat on the ground, quickly move the lift control lever to the full
RAISE position until the bucket is fully raised.
4. Lower the bucket to the ground.
5. Repeat steps 3 - 4 two times.
6. Increase engine speed to high idle.
7. Repeat steps 3 – 4 three times.
3b: Relief Pressure Settings – Engine Speed at High idle

1. Raise the bucket to the maximum height.
2. Move the lift control lever to the full RAISE position.
3. Hold for three seconds.
4. Return lift control lever to the HOLD position.
5. Repeat steps 2 - 4.
6. Move the bucket to the full rack back position.
7. Move the bucket control lever to the full RACK BACK position.
9. Return the lever to the HOLD position.
11. Turn off the data logger.
Important data being electronically recorded by VIMS

• Lift cylinder position
• Lift cylinder head pressures
• Hydraulic oil temperature
• Engine Speed

Test 4: Converter Stall Test
The purposes of these tests are to record the engine performance and the steady state operating
conditions against a torque converter stall.
Note: Do not apply the parking brake during the converter stall test. On VIMS equipped machines,
applying the parking brake with the transmission in gear will cause a category 3 parking brake-
warning message to lock on the message center. This condition will prevent the serviceman from
observing when the category 2 warning occurs from hot converter oil temperature during the stall
test.
1. Chock the wheels to prevent movement of the machine, and lower the bucket to the ground.
3. At low idle, apply the service brakes and shift the transmission to 3rd speed forward.
4. Raise the engine speed to about 1200 RPM and hold until torque converter oil temperature
reaches 210°F.
5. Reduce the engine speed to low idle and shift the transmission to neutral for 3 to 5 seconds.
6. Apply the service brake and shift the transmission to the highest forward gear available.
7. Quickly accelerate engine speed from low idle to maximum speed.
8. Hold for 5 -10 seconds at maximum engine speed or until the torque converter oil temperature
triggers a category 2 warning (250°F).
9. Reduce the engine speed to low idle, and shift the transmission lever to neutral.
10. Raise engine speed to about 1300 RPM and hold until the torque converter temperature cools to
210°F.
12. Repeat steps 4 through 10.
13. Turn off data logger and allow the system to cool to normal ranges. The engine should idle for at
least one minute to let the turbochargers slow down.

• Turbo outlet pressure (boost pressure).
Test 6: Impeller Clutch Pressure Test

The purpose of these tests is to record the steady state operating pressures of the impeller clutch versus
the left pedal position at various engine speeds. For both of these tests, the reduced/max rimpull enable
switch should be set to the MAX position.
Test 6a: Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Left Pedal Position

1. Lower the bucket to the ground, and increase engine speed to high idle.

100% for 5 seconds, and gradually decrease pedal back to 0%.
4. Repeat step 3.
Test 6b: Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Engine Speed

1. Turn on data logger.
2. With transmission in neutral and engine speed at low idle, gradually increase engine speed from
low to high idle in 15 seconds. Hold at high idle for 10 seconds.
4. Repeat step 2.

Analysis of Signature Test Data
The following information is the recommended action to analyze the results from the signature tests on
the 994D. Note the specific examples cited in this analysis section are results obtained from one 994D
and results will vary between different machines. Acceptable operating ranges for these tests can be
located in the appropriate service manuals for the 994D and the 994AKIT.
Stationary Tests
Operating Temperatures and Machine Information
This test was performed to warm the machine to normal operating temperatures for later tests, and to
determine if the brake system is functional. If the loader creeps forward during the brake tests, schedule
necessary repairs to the brake system. The following machine information and operating temperatures
can be recorded in the tables to record conditions for each signature test. This allows repeatability each
time the signature test is run.

Engine Oil Pressure
Engine oil pressure versus engine
speed data can be derived from this
test. The engine speed is set at
various points to record the steady
state engine oil pressure at each
speed. The engine speed versus oil
pressure relationship can be verified
by slowly raising engine speed from
low to high. Figure 1 shows a typical
run.
This data can be combined to provide

a plot of engine oil pressure versus
engine speed. Figure 2 was
generated by extracting the data from
Figure 1. The steady state oil
pressure data is recorded in Table 1.
The straight-line curve in Figure 2

represents the oil pressure versus
engine speed warning level that is
used by the Engine Control Module
and VIMS to provide low oil
pressure warning. Oil pressure is
checked against these curves
according to engine speed.
A change in slope of the measured

oil pressure occurs at an engine
speed where the relief valve is
beginning to open. The oil
pressure increases slightly as
engine speed increases until the
relief valve is fully opened. On this
machine, the relief valve is set to
open at 83 psi, so the relief valve
never opened in this test.
If the oil temperature and viscosity

grade are the same, and there are
significant changes in oil pressure,
determine the reason and make
repairs as needed.

Possible Reasons for Oil Pressure Changes:
1. Oil level very low.
2. Plugged oil filters.
3. Diesel fuel in lubrication oil.
4. Too much clearance between rocker arm shaft and rocker arms.
5. Oil pump suction pipe has a defect.
6. Oil pressure relief sticks open.
7. Oil pump or scavenge oil pump is worn.
8. Too much clearance between crankshaft and crankshaft bearings.
9. Too much clearance between camshaft and camshaft bearings.
10. Failed oil pressure sensor.
Engine Performance
The 2nd portion of the unloaded
engine test measures the engine
response under no-load
conditions. The engine speed is
quickly accelerated from low to
high idle. The engine response is
shown in Figure 3 and the results
are recorded in Table 2. The
engine response time is
measured from the initial throttle
input to the time the engine
reaches high idle. It is difficult to
measure the exact response time
because the data is only collected
at a one Hertz (once per second)
sample rate. The low and high
idle engine speeds are recorded
on this graph for reference. The
engine response time and steady
state idle speeds should not
significantly change over the
engine life. If these parameters
do significantly change, further
investigation and testing of the
engine is warranted.

Cycle Times
The lift cylinder cycle times are recorded
in this test to give an indication of pump
health. Figures 4 and 5 respectively show
the cycle time test results at low and high
idle engine speeds. The implement oil
should be above 100°F (38°C) for
accurate and repeatable tests. The
average cycle times for low and high idle
engine speeds are shown in Table 3. If
these times significantly change further
investigation and testing of the hydraulic
system is warranted.

Relief Valve Settings

The main relief pressures for the lift and tilt
head end cylinders are determined by
moving the cylinders up against their stops
and are recorded in Table 4. These
results can be compared to previous tests
to determine if there is a problem with the
relief valve pressure settings.

Possible Reasons for Changes in Relief Pressures:

1. Incorrect adjustment.
2. Failed relief valve.

Test 4 & 5: Converter Stall Test & Double Stall Test
Engine Response
The engine response is measured
during both stall tests. In the
converter stall test, the service brake
is applied followed by shifting the
transmission into the highest gear
available. Next, the engine speed is
maximum speed. In the double stall
test, the engine speed is accelerated
before loading with the transmission
and implements. If the load from the
implements and transmission occur
before increasing the engine speed,
the engine would stall. The engine
response is respectively shown in
Figures 6 and 7 for the converter and
double stall tests and recorded in
Table 5. The engine response time
is measured from the initial throttle
input to the time the engine reaches
stall speed. The response time
accuracy is to the nearest second
since the data is collected at a one
Hertz (once per second) sample rate.
The engine response time

for the double stall cannot
be obtained because the
engine speed input
occurred before the
transmission and
implements were stalled.
The converter and double
stall speeds for this
machine are also shown in
Figures 6 and 7 and
recorded in Table 5.
11
The turbo outlet absolute pressure
and torque converter temperatures
are shown for each test in Figures 8
and 9. Atmospheric pressure is
plotted with the turbo pressure to
calculate boost pressure. Boost
pressure equals turbo outlet –
atmospheric pressure. The boost
pressure is also recorded in Table
5.
The engine response time, stall

speeds and boost pressure should
not significantly change over the
engine life. If these parameters do
significantly change, further
engine, transmission, torque
converter, and hydraulic systems
are warranted.

max engine speed)
Converter Stall 1520 + 25 RPM 16 + 1 psi 7 + 1 sec
Double Stall 1150 + 25 RPM 12 + 1 psi N/A
Possible Causes for changes in engine response, stall speeds and boost pressure
1. Leak in exhaust system.
2. Leak in air inlet system.
3. Failed fuel injector(s).
4. Failed valve(s).
5. Restriction in air inlet and exhaust system.
6. Failed turbo pressure sensor.
12
Exhaust Temperature Split
Exhaust temperature split is the
difference between the right and
left exhaust temperature taken
at the same time. The exhaust
temperature split data is only
meaningful during full load
conditions. The engine is under
a full load for the converter and
double stall tests. Figures 10
and 11 respectively show the
exhaust temperature split during
the converter and double stall
tests.
There is normally some

difference between the left and
right exhaust temperatures. If
the exhaust temperature split is
greater than 50°C (90°F) or a
step change in the exhaust
temperature split occurs, this
may indicate a problem.
Possible Causes for a High

2. Leak or break in fuel line
between fuel manifold
and cylinder head.
3. Wrong valve clearance.
6. Restriction in air inlet or
exhaust system.
7. Wrong fuel injector lash.
8. Incorrect fuel injection
timing calibration.
9. Bent or broken push rod.
10. Failed exhaust
temperature sensor(s).
13
Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Left Pedal
The left pedal controls the
impeller clutch pressure. Based
on the left pedal position, the
transmission electronic control
module activates the impeller
clutch solenoid valve. The
impeller clutch solenoid valve
controls the oil flow to the
impeller clutch. The left pedal
acts as an on/off switch at
approximately 40% pedal travel.
When the pedal crosses this
threshold, the impeller clutch
pressure is reduced which limits
the torque being transmitted by
the torque converter. In the last
60% of pedal travel, the service
brakes are engaged. This
relationship can be verified by
gradually depressing the torque
converter pedal through its entire
travel. A typical run at high idle
is shown in Figure 12, and the
results are recorded in Table 6. The table shows the relationship between left pedal position and impeller
clutch pressure at an engine speed of 1675 RPM. The initial impeller clutch pressure could have several
varying values depending on the Reduced Rimpull Setting. Therefore, it is important to set the
reduced/max rimpull enable switch to the MAX position. If the pressure levels significantly change,
further investigation and testing of the system is warranted.
Table 6: Typical Steady State Impeller Clutch Pressures versus Pedal Position @ 1675 RPM
Left Pedal 0% 41% 42% 85%
Impeller Clutch Pressure 259 psi 259 psi 72 psi 72 psi
1786 Kpa 1786 Kpa 496 Kpa 496 Kpa
14
Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Engine Speed
To improve engine and machine
response during engine
acceleration, the impeller clutch
pressure at low engine speeds
is reduced. Figure 13 shows a
typical run for impeller clutch
pressure when engine speed
increases from low to high idle.
Table 7 shows the steady state
relationship between engine
speed and impeller clutch
pressure. The impeller clutch
pressure ramps from minimum
to maximum between engine
speeds of 950 – 1100 RPM.
Since VIMS records data at a
one Hertz sample (once per
second) rate, the steady state
relationship between 950 –
1100 RPM is difficult to capture.
Therefore, it is critical to slowly
ramp the engine speed to
accurately record pressures during the 950 – 1100 RPM range. If this relationship significantly changes,

Possible Reasons for Impeller Clutch Pressure Changes:

1. Damage to internal torque converter seal rings
2. Damage to impeller clutch piston seals.
3. Worn pump.
4. Failed impeller clutch solenoid or impeller solenoid valve.
5. Calibration is needed.

The machine should be positioned on a dry, hard level surface at least 50 meters from other machines,
structures or people.

The purpose of this test is to warm the machine to normal operating temperatures for later tests, and to
determine if the brake system is functional. The test is not intended to measure maximum brake holding
effort. Brake holding effort required to hold a machine at a specific engine RPM will vary from machine to
machine due to differences in engine setting, power train efficiency, and in brake holding capability.

implement circuits. This determines if the hydraulic pumps are operating efficiently. The implement oil
should be at operating temperature for meaningful test results.
Note: Before raising the bucket, make sure overhead clearance is adequate. Hitting wires or structures
can cause machine damage and/or personal injury. Tilt cylinder cycle times are not measured
because position data for this cylinder is not recorded on this model.

Analysis of Signature Test Data
The following information is the recommended action to analyze the results from the signature tests on
the 992G. Note the specific examples cited in this analysis section are results obtained from one 992G
and results will vary between different machines. Acceptable operating ranges for these tests can be
located in the appropriate service manuals for the 992G.
Stationary Tests
Operating Temperatures and Machine Information
This test was performed to warm the machine to normal operating temperatures for later tests, and to
determine if the brake system is functional. If the loader creeps forward during the brake tests, schedule
necessary repairs to the brake system. The following machine information and operating temperatures
can be recorded in the tables to record conditions for each signature test. This allows repeatability each
time the signature test is run.

Engine Oil Pressure
Engine oil pressure versus engine
speed data can be derived from this
test. The engine speed is set at
various points to record the steady
state engine oil pressure at each
speed. The engine speed versus
oil pressure relationship can be
verified by slowly raising engine
speed from low to high. Figure 1
shows a typical run.
This data can be combined to

provide a plot of engine oil pressure
versus engine speed. Figure 2 was
generated by extracting the data
from Figure 1. The steady state oil
pressure data is recorded in Table
1.
The straight-line curve in Figure 2

represents the oil pressure versus
engine speed warning level that is
used by the Engine Control Module
and VIMS to provide low oil pressure
warning. Oil pressure is checked
against these curves according to
engine speed.
A change in slope of the measured oil

pressure occurs at an engine speed
where the relief valve is beginning to
open. The oil pressure increases
slightly as engine speed increases
until the relief valve is fully opened.
On this machine, the relief valve is set
to open at 83 psi, so the relief valve
never opened in this test.
If the oil temperature and viscosity

grade is the same, and there are
significant changes in oil pressure,
determine the reason and make
repairs as needed.

Possible Reasons for Oil Pressure Changes:
1. Oil level very low.
2. Plugged oil filters.
3. Diesel fuel in lubrication oil.
4. Too much clearance between rocker arm shaft and rocker arms.
5. Oil pump suction pipe has a defect.
6. Oil pressure relief sticks open.
7. Oil pump or scavenge oil pump is worn.
8. Too much clearance between crankshaft and crankshaft bearings.
9. Too much clearance between camshaft and camshaft bearings.
10. Failed oil pressure sensor.
Engine Performance
The 2nd portion of the unloaded
engine test measures the engine
response under no-load
conditions. The engine speed is
high idle. The engine response
is shown in Figure 3 and the
results are recorded in Table 2.
The engine response time is
measured from the initial throttle
input to the time the engine
reaches high idle. It is difficult to
measure the exact response
time because the data is only
collected at a one Hertz (once
per second) sample rate. The
low and high idle engine speeds
are recorded on this graph for
reference. The engine response
time and steady state idle
speeds should not significantly
change over the engine life. If
these parameters do significantly
change, further investigation and
testing of the engine is warranted.

Cycle Times
The lift cylinder cycle times are
recorded in this test to give an
indication of pump health. Figures 4
and 5 respectively show the cycle time
test results at low and high idle engine
speeds. The implement oil should be
above 100F (38C) for accurate and
repeatable tests. The average cycle
times for low and high idle engine
speeds are shown in Table 3. If these
times significantly change further
hydraulic system is warranted.

2. Leakage in the hydraulic system.
Relief Valve Settings

The main relief pressures for the lift and tilt
head end cylinders are determined by
moving the cylinders up against their stops
and are recorded in Table 4. These results
can be compared to previous tests to
determine if there is a problem with the relief
valve pressure settings.

Test 4 & 5: Converter Stall Test & Double Stall Test

Engine Response
The engine response is measured during
both stall tests. In the converter stall test,
the service brake is applied followed by
shifting the transmission into the highest
gear available. Next, the engine speed is
quickly accelerated from low to maximum
speed. In the double stall test, the engine
speed is accelerated before loading with
the transmission and implements. If the
load from the implements and transmission
occur before increasing the engine speed,
the engine would stall. The engine
response is respectively shown in Figures 6
and 7 for the converter and double stall
tests and recorded in Table 5. The engine
response time is measured from the initial
throttle input to the time the engine reaches
stall speed. The response time accuracy is
to the nearest second since the data is
collected at a one Hertz (once per second)
sample rate.
The engine response time for the

double stall cannot be obtained
because the engine speed input
occurred before the transmission and
implements were stalled. The
converter and double stall speeds for
this machine are also shown in
Figures 6 and 7 and recorded in Table
5.
11
The turbo outlet absolute
pressure and torque converter
temperatures are shown for each
test in Figures 8 and 9.
Atmospheric pressure is plotted
with the turbo pressure to
calculate boost pressure. Boost
pressure equals turbo outlet –
atmospheric pressure. The boost
pressure is also recorded in Table
5.
The engine response time, stall

speeds and boost pressure
should not significantly change
over the engine life. If these
parameters do significantly
change, further investigation and
testing of the engine,
transmission, torque converter,
and hydraulic systems are
warranted.

max engine speed)

Double Stall 1150 + 25 RPM 12 + 1 psi N/A
Possible Causes for changes in engine response, stall speeds and boost pressure
4. Failed valve(s).
5. Restriction in air inlet and exhaust system.
6. Failed turbo pressure sensor.
12
Exhaust temperature split is the
difference between the right and
left exhaust temperature taken at
the same time. The exhaust
temperature split data is only
meaningful during full load
conditions. The engine is under
a full load for the converter and
double stall tests. Figures 10
and 11 respectively show the
exhaust temperature split during
the converter and double stall
tests.
There is normally some

difference between the left and
right exhaust temperatures. If
the exhaust temperature split is
greater than 50°C (90°F) or a
step change in the exhaust
temperature split occurs, this
may indicate a problem.
Possible Causes for a High

7. Wrong fuel injector lash.
8. Incorrect fuel injection
timing calibration.
9. Bent or broken push rod.
10. Failed exhaust temperature
sensor(s).
13
Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Left Pedal
The left pedal controls the impeller
clutch pressure. Based on the left
pedal position, the transmission
electronic control module activates the
impeller clutch solenoid valve. The
impeller clutch solenoid valve controls
the oil flow to the impeller clutch. The
left pedal acts as an on/off switch at
approximately 40% pedal travel.
When the pedal crosses this
threshold, the impeller clutch pressure
is reduced which limits the torque
being transmitted by the torque
converter. In the last 60% of pedal
travel, the service brakes are
engaged. This relationship can be
verified by gradually depressing the
torque converter pedal through its
entire travel. A typical run at high idle
is shown in Figure 12, and the results
are recorded in Table 6. The table
shows the relationship between left
pedal position and impeller clutch
pressure at an engine speed of 1675 RPM. The initial impeller clutch pressure could have several
varying values depending on the Reduced Rimpull Setting. Therefore, it is important to set the
reduced/max rimpull enable switch to the MAX position. If the pressure levels significantly change,

Impeller Clutch Pressure vs. Engine Speed
To improve engine and machine
response during engine acceleration, the
impeller clutch pressure at low engine
speeds is reduced. Figure 13 shows a
typical run for impeller clutch pressure
when engine speed increases from low
to high idle. Table 7 shows the steady
state relationship between engine speed
and impeller clutch pressure. The
impeller clutch pressure ramps from
minimum to maximum between engine
speeds of 950 – 1100 RPM. Since VIMS
records data at a one Hertz sample
(once per second) rate, the steady state
relationship between 950 – 1100 RPM is
difficult to capture. Therefore, it is critical
to slowly ramp the engine speed to
accurately record pressures during the
950 – 1100 RPM range. If this
relationship significantly changes, further
investigation and testing of the system is
warranted.

Possible Reasons for Impeller Clutch Pressure Changes:

1. Damage to internal torque converter seal rings
2. Damage to impeller clutch piston seals.
3. Worn pump.
4. Failed impeller clutch solenoid or impeller solenoid valve.
5. Calibration is needed.
