C5G – Attaching parts, for loading crane, front

The equipment can be ordered for selected vehicles of the Actros 5 and Arocs 5 (Bm 963/964)
model series.
The scope of supply comprises a factory-mounted angle bracket on the left and right longitudinal
frame member in the area behind the cab. In combination with the C5G fasteners, this makes it
easier to set up a suitable loading crane and ensures shear-resistant attachment. It may no longer
be necessary to assemble/disassemble major assemblies (e.g. AdBlue reservoir, exhaust gas box,
battery carrier, etc.) or fabricate and mount a suitable angle bracket / crane plates and lower flange
reinforcement.
Technical information on assembling a loading crane in combination with the crane plates installed
ex works can be found in Book II of the Mercedes-Benz body/equipment mounting directives for the
Actros 5 and Arocs (963.x / 964.x) model series.
Information on the exact installation position of the crane plates on the vehicle can be found on the
2D chassis drawings on the Mercedes-Benz Bodybuilder Portal.
Detailed information on the geometric design of the crane plates can be found in "MB-Truck
Aufbaukonsolen Detailzeichnungskatalog" (currently available in German only) on the Mercedes-
Benz Bodybuilder Portal.
Example: attaching parts for the loading crane behind the cab
Due to the numerous potential combinations of vehicle type, crane, total crane torque, support type, subframe
design, stability, etc., it is not possible to specify a maximum permissible total crane torque for the C5G
attaching parts.
The off-road capability of four-axle vehicles may be limited by the reduced spring travel on the second front axle.

Chassis
C5H – Attaching parts, shear-resistant

model series.
The scope of supply comprises factory-mounted consoles throughout and shackles for the positive-
fit, shear-resistant attachment of a body assembly frame. The material strength of the attaching
parts depends on the technically permissible gross vehicle weight.
The installation positions of the attaching parts are shown on the 2D chassis drawings.
Detailed information on the geometric design of the attaching parts can be found in "MB-Truck
Example: C5H attaching parts for Bm963003

front of the first rear axle
The size of the discontinuity depends

on the wheelbase.
Example: C5M for Bm963020 with wheelbase 4600 mm
Continuous reinforcing brackets – from the first crossmember after the transmission to the crossmember after
the trailing axle – are currently installed only in the 6x2 low-frame chassis (Bm963.021) with wheelbase 4900
(C2U) in combination with equipment "C7P – Free space for swap bodies, low-frame".

Chassis
C5N – Frame, for refuse vehicle, rear-loader

model series.
The chassis is specially designed for the requirements of rear-loader refuse collection bodies.
On steel-sprung vehicles, the end crossmember is indented by around 350 mm so that the frame
overhang can be adjusted more easily. Air-sprung vehicles are shipped without an end
crossmember. In this case, however, the last crossmember in the frame tail is reinforced.
An end crossmember does not normally have to be retrofitted on refuse collection bodies with rear
loader.
The extended scope of supply includes vehicle-dependent frame reinforcements, easy-to-remove
transmission support arms (G0R) and the frequent-stop brake (B1X), as well as the omission of the
rear underride guard (C9Y) with tail lamps temporarily mounted on the frame tail.
With code C5H, body attaching parts for shear-resistant body mounting on the chassis can also be
shipped ex works. The body attaching parts are not shipped in the case of equipment C9S.

E0V – High-load parameter level 1

E0W – High-load parameter level 2
The equipment can be ordered for vehicles of the Actros 5 and Arocs 5 (Bm 963/964) model
series in combination with Stability Control Assist "code S1D" .
For vehicles with Stability Control Assist, it is recommended that the high-load parameter in the
Stability Control Assist control unit be adjusted in line with the routinely occurring or permanent
load case. The crucial factor here is the overall center of gravity of the vehicle as determined by the
body manufacturer (vehicle with attachment/body including payload).
With the two equipment codes E0V and E0W, the high-load parameter can be adjusted ex works in
the Stability Control Assist control unit (ESP®) in line with the expected load case of the vehicle
with body.
This means that parameterization performed at a later date by a Mercedes-Benz service partner is
not necessary.

E4B – Interface, fleet management system (FMS)
series.
The standardized interface is an electronic communication connection for fleet management
systems from various different manufacturers. Via the FMS interface, vehicle-internal CAN data can
be converted to standardized SAE J1939 format and transferred to the relevant fleet management
system.
The data content of the interface is defined in detail and agreed upon among the manufacturers.
This means that various different fleet management systems can analyze the recorded vehicle data
from the named manufacturers easily and for all brands. The electrical interface (X167) is located in
a DIN installation opening above the driver's seat.
Depending on the vehicle version, the following data can be called up via the FMS interface in
accordance with the FMS 3.0 standard:
Brake light switches, outside temperature

Vehicle speed / wheel speed
Cruise control, clutch, power take-off status, accelerator pedal position
Engine percent load to maximum torque at current vehicle speed
Fuel consumption: total consumption / present consumption
Total engine operating hours, total vehicle mileage
Fuel tank fill level, engine speed, engine coolant temperature

The equipment can be ordered for selected chassis of the Actros 5 (Bm 963) model series.
With equipment E4E, the vehicle engine – when the vehicle is at a standstill – can be started and
stopped by the body electronics regardless of whether or not the cab is locked. The function is
useful for e.g. refrigeration units powered by the vehicle engine.
The second-generation PSM / XMC (code E3W) is required for communication between the body
and vehicle.
If the engine is started via the body electronics, the transmission remains locked, which means that
the vehicle cannot be moved in this status.
The engine can be stopped at any time via the start/stop button. To ensure that the ignition can be
switched on by the body controller when the vehicle engine has been stopped, wake-capable pin 37
on plug X1.40 of the PSM/XMC must be energized with a 24 V signal.
This activates terminal 15 in the vehicle.
After a waiting time of at least 5 seconds, an external engine start via the body controller can be
requested.
After 30 minutes, the engine is stopped and terminal 15 is deactivated again.
The standard, programmed shutdown time can be set in the control unit parameters.
