Features of Messenger Display
Illustration 1 g00916428
Messenger display
The Messenger display will show information for the engine and information for the vehicle. For
detailed operating information, see the Operation Section of this manual. The driver should review the
information in this manual prior to driving. Before driving, the driver should review the Messenger
Screen Map in order to select the most important information for the trip. This will avoid the entry of
data during the operation of the vehicle.
On the first pass of flashing new messenger software over an old existing version, the standard
defaults will be as follows.
• Language will be in English
• Units will be in English
• The contrast, brightness, and backlighting will all be set to the factory default
All the above settings can be changed as required by the operator. After the changes are made a two
minute wait time is required. After the two minute wait time, the messenger will have a "Key Cycle"
to enforce the changes with the messenger.
Note: A Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) may be used to make changes to the Messenger. For
Illustration purposes this document uses English units.
Engine Operating Information
The Messenger display provides information on cruise control set speed, PTO engine rpm set speed,
fuel temperature to the engine, boost and oil pressure, coolant temperature, and intake manifold
temperature.
Information on the Trip of the Vehicle
The Messenger display provides information concerning the quantity of fuel that has been used, the
fuel economy, the average vehicle speed, idle time, PTO time, percent idle hour, idle fuel, and PTO
fuel. These parameters may relate to trip segments or to the engine history. A Driver and a Fleet Trip
Segment is available for 3176B, 3176C, C-10, C11, C-12, C13, C15, C-15, C-16, and 3406E engines
only. For the Driver Trip Segment, the driver determines the start and stop points. For the Fleet Trip
Segment, the vehicle owner determines the start and stop points. The vehicle may be operated in
separate states. The Fleet Trip Segment may be tied to each of these states. The Fleet Trip Segment
may be split between two drivers and two ID codes.
Maintenance Information
The last oil change may be entered. This allows the display to indicate when the next oil change is
due.
Diagnostic Data
Engine diagnostic codes may be displayed for the driver. The Messenger display will automatically
display potentially serious engine problems. When one of these codes appears, the driver should bring
the vehicle to a safe stop. After the display of a serious diagnostic code, the engine may shut down
within 20 seconds. Refer to the Diagnostic Code Chart for a list of these codes.
Theft Deterrent
Messenger provides the capability to allow the engine to start or the capability to prevent the engine
from starting. The Messenger display can shut down the engine after entering a password with four
characters into the display when the engine is at idle.
Correction for the Fuel Adjustment
Messenger provides the capability to adjust the Fuel Correction Factor of the ECM.
Configuration of the Display
Messenger can provide information in either English, French, or Spanish. Units of measure can be
displayed in English (miles per hour, US gallons, psi, and °F), English (miles per hour, Imperial
gallons, psi, and °F), or Metric units (kilometer per hour, liters, kPa, and °C). The French or Spanish
manuals may be ordered by contacting a Caterpillar dealer.

Entry of the DRIVER ID
The Messenger display provides the capability to enter the ID of multiple drivers. This allows the
ECM to log information for multiple drivers. This is useful in driving applications that involve several
drivers.
State Crossing
Messenger allows the driver to enter the current state.
Access to Parameters
The availability of parameters is determined by the engine manufacturer, the model year of the
engine, and the ECM settings for the Customer Programmable Parameters.
Note: The Messenger display may be used on engines that are not manufactured by Caterpillar.
Limited instantaneous data and diagnostic data will be available for these engines. Also, Messenger
will only support 3116, 3126 HEUI, C7, and C9 engines that have been produced after August 1996.

"Instantaneous Data" Screens

The display can indicate the status of nineteen engine and vehicle operating conditions. The
"INSTANTANEOUS DATA" can include "Current Fuel Economy", "Fleet Trip Segment Fuel
Economy", "Vehicle Speed", "Cruise Set Speed", "Fuel Rate", "Engine Load", "Engine Speed", "PTO
Set Engine Speed", "Fuel Temperature, Boost Pressure", "Coolant Temperature", "Oil Pressure",
"Intake Manifold Temperature", "Ambient Air Temperature", "Cold Mode Status", "Multi-Torque
Status", "Throttle", "Exh Gas Temp", and "DPF Out Temp".
Remember that not all engines support all of the "INSTANTANEOUS DATA" parameters. The
parameters that are supported depend on the type of engine. For example, 3126B engines only support
12 of the 19 possible "INSTANTANEOUS DATA" parameters. View the appropriate screen map for
the particular engine for a complete listing of "INSTANTANEOUS DATA" parameters.
Note: The engine parameters use the ECM as the source of information for the display. The
Messenger display and the instrument panel gauges may indicate different values. The display may
respond differently to changing conditions as the vehicle operates. The readings between the gauges
and display may be different. This does not indicate that the components are faulty.

Screen Display Totals Information

Trip Segments
The Messenger display will provide operating data on the engine in a variety of ways. The Messenger
display provides the method in order to label information for both driver and the vehicle owner. With
the 3176B, 3176C, 3406E, C-10, C11, C-12, C13, C15, C-15, and C-16 engines, the Messenger
display records information in three separate ways. Lifetime Totals, a Fleet Trip Segment, and a
Driver Trip Segment are recorded. With 3116, 3126B, 3126E, C7, and C9 engines, the Messenger
display records a Fleet Trip Segment and Lifetime Totals.
Lifetime Totals
Lifetime totals are permanently stored in the ECM on the engines. The information is recorded
throughout the life of the engine. The Lifetime Totals cannot be reset under normal operation. The
Lifetime Totals cannot be deleted under normal operation. The Lifetime Totals are shown on the
screen map for the Messenger display.
"Totals Information" (3176B, 3176C, 3406E, C-10, C11, C-12, C13, C15, C-15,
and C-16 Engines)

Column on the totals of information
Fleet Trip Segment
This information is intended for the fleet owner or owner driver. The ability to reset the information
from the Messenger display depends on the software program. The Fleet Trip Segment may be reset
with the Cat ET and the appropriate passwords. Resetting the Fleet Trip Segment does not affect the
Driver Trip Segment or the Lifetime Totals. The Fleet Trip Segment is shown on the Messenger
screen map. The Messenger display provides the driver with the capability to enter the current state.
The information on the state is part of the Fleet Trip Segment. The Messenger display provides the
capability to enter the information for two drivers for the Fleet Trip Segment. The Fleet Trip Segment
can be sorted for the two drivers by the Messenger software. The information on the state is shown on
the screen map for the Messenger display. Entering the State Crossing and the DRIVER ID is
explained further in the manual. Resetting the Fleet Trip Segment will clear the Driver ID for Fleet
Trip. Resetting the Fleet Trip Segment will clear the Fleet Trip State Totals.
Driver Trip Segment
The Driver Trip Segment is intended for the driver and the Driver Trip segment is controlled by the
driver. The Driver Trip Totals are shown on the screen map for the Messenger display in column 2.
Resetting the Driver Trip Segment does not affect the Fleet Trip Segment or Lifetime Totals.
Resetting the Driver Trip Segment does not affect the State Totals or the DRIVER IDS.

The Driver Totals Information For The 3176B, 3176C, 3406E,

C-10, C11, C-12, C13, C15, C-15, and C-16 Engines
The Driver Trip Segment is set by the driver. The driver sets the point to begin and the driver sets the
point to end. The procedure is similar to setting a trip odometer. The Driver Trip Segment Totals are
independent of the DRIVER ID. If a new driver begins operating the vehicle, resetting the DRIVER
ID will not reset the Driver Trip Segment. The screen for the Driver Trip segment has ten parameters.
The parameters are "Average Fuel Economy", "Distance Traveled", "Average Speed", "Fuel Used",
"Engine Run Hours", "PTO Fuel Used", "PTO Hours", "Idle Fuel Used", "Idle Hours", and "Percent
Idle Time".
Accessing The Driver Trip Screens
The display may be moved Up or Down from Column 2 of the screen map from any of the Driver
Trip Screens. The "FLEET TRIP" screen may also be navigated in the same way as the "DRIVER
TRIP" screen. The Down, Up, and Right arrow buttons are available from any of the "DRIVER TRIP
DATA " screens. Moving to the corresponding "FLEET TRIP" information allows the driver to
compare current "DRIVER TRIP" data to "FLEET TRIP" data. The desired screen should be selected
prior to driving.

The screen for the Fleet Trip Segment has ten parameters. The parameters are "Average Fuel
Economy", "Distance Traveled", "Average Speed", "Fuel Used", "Engine Run Hours", "PTO Fuel
Used", "PTO Hours", "Idle Fuel Used", "Idle Hours", and "Percent Idle Time". The information for
the Fleet Trip Segment is controlled by the fleet owner. The information may only be controlled by
the driver if the ECM has been programmed to allow the driver to reset the display on the Fleet Trip
Segment.
Accessing The "Fleet Trip" Screens
The display may be moved Up or Down from any of the "Fleet Trip" Screens. The "Driver Trip"
screen and the "Lifetime Total" screen may also be navigated in the same way as the "Fleet Trip"
screen. The Left, Down, Up, and Right arrow buttons are available from any of the "Fleet Trip Data"
screens. Moving to the corresponding "Driver Trip Segment" or "Lifetime Total" information allows
the driver to compare current "Fleet Trip Data" to the "Driver Trip" data or "Lifetime Total" data. The
desired screen should be selected prior to driving.
Reset Protection of Fleet Trip Totals
The "Fleet Trip Totals" may be reset with the Messenger display or the "Fleet Trip Totals" may be
reset with an Cat ET by the Fleet Owner. Resetting is controlled by a Customer Programmable
Parameter that is programmed into the engine ECM by the Fleet Owner. The parameter must first be
programmed into the ECM. The power to the display must be turned OFF and ON in order for the
display to recognize the change.
Fleet Owner Control For Reset of the Fleet Trip Segment
The Fleet Trip Reset may be controlled by the Fleet Owner. The display may be reset with Caterpillar
Fleet Information Software or with an Cat ET.
ECM Allows The Messenger Display to Reset The Fleet Trip Segment
The Fleet Trip Reset may be controlled by the driver. The display is reset with the dash display, with
Caterpillar Fleet Information Software, or with an Cat ET.
All Data Has Been Cleared and The Fleet Trip Segment is Reset
A Fleet Trip Reset will clear all "Fleet Trip Totals", "Fleet Trip State Totals", "DRIVER ID", and
"State Crossings". No other information is affected.

"Diagnostic Data" Screens

The display will automatically indicate certain diagnostic codes as the codes occur. The
"DIAGNOSTIC DATA" screens provide the advantage of indicating the reason that the Check Engine
lamp has come on. The codes will be displayed with the PID-FMI diagnostic code (Parameter
Identifier and Failure Mode Identifier) and a brief text description. If more than one code is active,
pressing the Down arrow button will scroll through the remaining codes. An active diagnostic code
that becomes inactive will disappear from the screen. Press the Right arrow button in order to return
to the title screen. The display will indicate other codes or "No Active Codes".
Table 13
Automatically Displayed Diagnostic Codes

111-01 "Low Coolant Level Warning"
105-00 "High Inlet Manifold Temp Warning"

105-11 "Very High Inlet Manifold Temp"
The diagnostic codes in the " Automatically Displayed Diagnostic Codes" chart will be displayed
whenever the codes are active. The display will continue to show these codes until any button is
pressed. The display will continue to show these codes until the diagnostic goes from an active state
to an inactive state. If no other codes are active, the Messenger display will return to the screen that
was displayed before the diagnostic event.
The diagnostic codes may alert the driver to conditions that may damage engine components. The
diagnostic codes 100-11 "Very Low Oil Pressure", 111-11 "Very Low Coolant Level" and 110-11
"Very High Coolant Temperature" indicate that the engine is experiencing a serious problem.
NOTICE
Depending on the engine configuration, the engine may shut down

when a potentially serious engine problem diagnostic code becomes
active. The driver will be provided a warning before engine shutdown.
Procedure to Address the Occurrence of Codes
Whenever a diagnostic code occurs, try to note all operating conditions of the vehicle. It is especially
critical to take note of the operating conditions for intermittent codes. This information provides the
technicians with the operating conditions at the time of the intermittent code. This will enhance the
technician's ability to produce the code again. This will also enhance the technician's ability to
diagnose the problem. The codes are recorded in the ECM and the codes may be recovered with the
Cat ET.
Diagnostic Code Chart
The following "Suggested Driver Action for Diagnostic Codes" chart is provided in order to help
determine the action that should be taken if a particular diagnostic code is active. The chart is
intended as a general guideline. The current operating conditions will determine the reaction of the
driver to the codes. As an example, only intermittent service codes that are a persistent problem
should be serviced.

"Theft Deterrent" Screens

Theft Deterrent
The Messenger display provides the capability to allow the engine to start, the capability to prevent
the engine from starting, or the capability to shut down the engine. This may be done by entering a
customer password with four characters into the display when the engine is at idle.
In the powerup sequence, the display will indicate if the "Theft Deterrent System" is enabled,
automatically enabled, or disabled. The "Theft Deterrent System" may be enabled or the system may
be automatically enabled. The engine will not start until the customer password with four characters is
successfully entered into the display. If the system is disabled, the engine will start without the
password. To enable the system, the customer password must be successfully entered. The passwords
that are entered will not be accepted if the engine is not at idle condition. In order to automatically
enable the system, the vehicle needs to be shut off in a normal manner. The "Theft Deterrent"
parameter needs to be programmed in order to be in the "Automatically Enable" mode.
Accessing Theft Deterrent
ECM Customer Programmable parameters determine the access to this function of the dash display
and the Theft Deterrent password. The ECM must be programmed to allow access to this screen. The
ECM must be programmed or the entire "Theft Deterrent" column of the screen map will not be
shown. Pressing the Right arrow button on the "DIAGNOSTIC DATA" title screen will cause the
display to pass over the "THEFT DETERRENT" title screen.
After the parameters are programmed in the ECM, the power must be turned OFF and the power
turned ON again in order for the display to recognize the change.

Troubleshooting
The following list may be some of the possible problems that may occur.
1. Unable To Read Characters On The Display
Probable Cause
◦ Portions of the display may not light. Part of a character is missing, etc. The unit must be
replaced.
2. The Display May Not Have Power.
Probable Cause
◦ Make sure that the On button has been pressed.
◦ Loose power or loose ground connections to the display
◦ The vehicle battery is dead.
◦ After checking the above items, if condition still exists refer to Step 1 of Diagnostic Test.
3. No Data Link Communication
Probable Cause
◦ No connection or an intermittent connection in one of the two Data Link lines to the
engine ECM
◦ Connection to the J1922 Data Link or the J1939 Data Link instead of the J1708 ATA
Data Link
◦ The data link lines must be the twisted pair.
◦ The engine has no power, intermittent power, or poor ground connections to the engine
ECM. After checking the above items, if a condition still exists refer to Step 4 of the
Diagnostic Test.
4. All Data Except Lifetime Totals Has Been Reset.
Probable Cause
◦ The unswitched battery connection to the engine ECM is disconnected. This is possibly
due to vehicle service or a battery disconnect switch.
◦ The data has been intentionally reset with the display, "Caterpillar Fleet Information
Software", or the Cat ET. Determine the reason for the reset and avoid the conditions that
caused this event. If a different system problem is suspected, consult a qualified service
shop.
5. The Fleet, Driver Trip Data, and Lifetime Totals Have Been Reset.
Probable Cause
◦ The engine ECM was recently replaced. Determine the reason for the reset and avoid the
conditions that caused this event. If a different system problem is suspected, consult a
qualified service shop.
6. The driver is Unable to Adjust The Fleet Trip or Unable to Reset the Maintenance. The
driver is Unable to Reset the "Fuel Correction".
Probable Cause
◦ The ECM parameters are programmed to prevent the reset of these parameters by the
customer. Cat ET and authorization from the owner will be necessary to reset the ECM.
This will allow access to these functions from the display.
◦ The power to the display was turned OFF and the power was turned ON in order for the
display to recognize the change.
7. The Driver Is Unable to Access The "Fleet Trip State Totals" and "State Crossing"
Information.
Probable Cause
◦ The ECM parameters are programmed OFF in order to prevent access to this information.
Cat ET and authorization from the owner will be necessary to reset the ECM. This will
allow access to this information.
◦ The power must be turned OFF and the power turned ON in order for the display to
recognize any changes to the ECM.
8. Certain "Instantaneous Data" Parameters Appear to be Unavailable.
◦ This information is not available on the data link. Verify that the appropriate sensors are
installed. For example, if Ambient Air Temperature is not shown by the display, verify
that an Ambient Air Sensor is installed on the vehicle.
9. The Display Will Not Become Dim On The Circuit For The Panel Dimmer.
◦ The dimmer circuit on the vehicle is not a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) circuit.
Contact the vehicle manufacturer in order to determine if the vehicle has a PWM dimmer
circuit.

minimum. The dash panel may only be 6 mm (0.25 inch) thick at a maximum. This will allow
the brackets to be secured to the back of the Messenger display.
Note: If the dash is more than 6 mm (0.25 inch) thick, the brackets may be carefully trimmed.
2. Disconnect vehicle batteries.
3. Locate all the wiring connections. The Messenger display requires a fused key switch for the
+battery, battery ground, "+ATA Data Link", and "-ATA Data Link" for proper operation. The
display may be wired to the panel dimmer switch. This connection allows the display to be
dimmed automatically with the dash panel lights. The display requires less than 500 mA of
power.
a. The key switched power to the +battery and the battery ground should be available in the
fuse panel of the cab.
b. The "+ATA Data Link" and "-ATA Data Link" may be located behind the dash data link.
A two-pin connector for the data link connection may be supplied by the vehicle
manufacturer. Do not confuse the lines for the J1708 ATA Data Link with the lines for
the J1922 or the J1939 Data Link.
c. The connection for the panel dimmer switch should be accessible from behind the dash.
The circuit for the panel dimmer switch must be a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM)
circuit. Contact the vehicle manufacturer in order to determine the type of circuit for the
panel dimmer or refer to the wiring schematic of the vehicle. The data link for the
+battery and the battery ground have connections for the display. The connection for the
+battery may be unswitched. Do not connect the display to unswitched power. Connect
the Messenger display to the key switched battery connection for the +battery and the
battery ground.
4. Connect the key switched battery connection to the +battery and the battery ground. Crimp a
terminal from the display connector (+battery) (pin 1) to the key switched battery connection
for the +battery. Crimp a terminal from the display connector (battery ground) (pin 2) to the key
switched battery connection for the battery ground.

5. Reconnect the vehicle batteries.
a. Use a multimeter to measure the voltage. Measure the voltage between the +battery (pin
3) and battery ground (pin 4) with the key switch in the On position. The voltage should
be 11 to 13.5 volts DC.
b. Turn the key switch to the Off position and measure the voltage again. The voltage
should be 0 volts when the key switch is in the Off position.
Note: The supply voltage to the Messenger display may be from 9 volts to 32 volts DC.
6. Connect the data link lines.
Note: The data link lines must be connected correctly or the display will not work. The data
link lines must be the twisted pair.
a. Temporarily connect the display to the wiring harness.
b. Turn the key switch to the On position. The display should come on.
c. Verify that the display comes on. If there is no communication, turn the key switch to the
Off position. Switch the data link lines.
d. If this does not solve the problem, either the connections are not sufficient or the lines are
connected to the wrong data link connector. The connection is to the J1922 Data Link or
to the J1939 Data Link instead of the J1708 ATA Data Link.
e. Remove the dash panel and cut the opening to the proper size for the display. Determine
the location for the Messenger display in the dash panel. Verify that the location that is
chosen is adequate for the installation of the Messenger display. Carefully cut a 113 mm
(4.45 inch) by 53 mm (2.0 inch) opening in the dash panel at the appropriate location.
Note: Do not make the hole for the Messenger display too large. Use a file or other
means to avoid a hole that is oversize. The body of the Messenger display should fit
snugly into the hole in the dash panel.
7. Insert the Messenger display into the dash.
a. Insert the display into the cutout in the front of the dash.
b. Install the rear brackets and loosely tighten the four screws that hold the brackets in
place.
c. Ensure that the face of the Messenger display is straight and positioned correctly in the
opening.
d. Fully tighten the four screws that hold the brackets in place.
8. Secure the Messenger display wiring with tie straps in order to avoid wiring abrasion and
interference with the driver.
Note: Do not locate the wiring harness for the Messenger display near any radio wiring.
