Configuration Parameters (M0077523-12)

This document provides instructions for addressing a 268-2 diagnostic code related to unprogrammed configuration parameters in an engine's Electronic Control Module (ECM). It explains that the code indicates one or more parameters have not been programmed, which can cause erratic or intermittent engine operation. It describes how to connect to the Cat ET system and view configuration parameters, and how to copy parameters from an old ECM to a new one. The document warns that parameters should only be changed when the engine is stopped to avoid potential engine damage.

1. Connect to Cat ET.

2. Select the Service tab.

3. Select the Configuration tab to view the configuration parameters.

If an ECM is replaced, the appropriate parameters must be copied from the old ECM. Copy the parameters with the "Copy Configuration" feature of
the Cat ET. The "Copy Configuration" tab is below the "Configuration" tab. Alternatively, the settings can be recorded on paper and then
programmed into the configuration screen that is for the new module.

NOTICE
Changing the parameters during engine operation can cause the
engine to operate erratically. Engine damage may be the result.

Only change the settings of the parameters when the engine is


stopped.

If a programmable parameter has not been programmed, the ECM will generate a 268-2 diagnostic code. The programmable parameter that is not
programmed will be listed under the code. The unprogrammed parameters will be set to default. Certain aspects of the engines performance and
engine monitoring may be affected.

If "Injector Trim" is displayed below a 268-2 diagnostic code on Cat ET, refer to Troubleshooting Injector Trim File - Install  .
