Navigation and Functionality


Technical Marketing Information (TMI)

The purpose of this training module is to provide the user with navigational and functionality
skills using TMI to search for a Serial Number, Feature Code, or other criteria.

Navigation in TMI is quite simple since typical Web Browser technology is used throughout.

TMI Web is a web-based application that enables the user to view and print information on
Caterpillar engines.

Serial Number Search


Serial Number Search

We will go step-by-step on how-to search for a Serial Number and how-to use the navigation and
functionality of the Technical Marketing Information.

Procedure

In this topic you will learn the navigation and functionality of the Technical Marketing
Information (TMI) Web Application by searching for a Serial Number.

Step Action
1. The vertical navigation bar on the Welcome to TMI screen is very important. To
initiate data searches, you must select Engine/Parts Data. The next set of screens will
help you to understand the navigation and functionality process. The examples used in
this training reflects what you will find when accessing Engine/Parts Data.
Click the Engines/Parts Data button.

2. Most of the TMI data can be found on this screen.

In order to retrieve data, a Reference Number needs to be entered.


3. In this lesson, we will search for a Serial Number.

In using the TMI application, you can use upper/lower case letters.
Enter the desired information into the Reference Number field. Enter "BET03099".
4. Next, you need to specify what the Reference Number Type is from the drop down
list provided.
Click the Serial Number list item.

5. In order to retrieve the maximum number of Information Tabs, reference the


information below on the different retrieval methods.

Retrieve Data - is mainly used when you are looking for data for a specific reference
number (Part number, Flash file, Performance number, Serial number, Feature code,
etc.) Retrieve Data will bring back data just for that number.

Retrieve Cross Reference - works much like Retrieve Data but it will bring back data
for other reference numbers that are tied to the one you entered. For instance, if you
entered a Feature Number of 512DE22, Retrieve Cross Reference will show you a list
of other reference numbers and other types of data that is tied to the feature code.

Advanced Search - is used when you do not have a reference number. For example,
if you just enter 500 in the HP field and submit for all ratings, then a listing will
become available showing all reference numbers that are tied to that HP.

If you were to Submit for current ratings then only current price list reference numbers
would be available.
6. You may want to refer to the buttons in the upper right-hand corner of the screen
throughout navigation in TMI.

Prints - Prints current page

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions pertaining to TMI

Help - You may receive help on each of the different tabs that shows up after entering

Within the TAB's you will have the following functionality:

- Change the change levels of the data


- Change the serial number breaks of the Test Specs
- Breakdown items to lower levels
- Copy and paste into other programs

If no reference numbers are available, use Advanced Search, which enables you to
access the same TMI Data by Eng App., Rating Appl., Rating Type, Sales Model,
Fuel Type, and other selection fields.

damage to the components of the set.

Conducted at the design stage of the product, the mathematically torsional vibration
analysis may reveal torsional vibration problems, which can be avoided by
modification of driven equipment shafts, masses or couplings.

Since compatibility of the installation is the customers responsibility, it is also their


responsibility to obtain the theoretical torsional vibration analysis. Data mass elastic
systems of items furnished by Caterpillar are available in this section/screen.
