Important Safety Information Work safely. Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance, and repair are caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person must also have the necessary training, skills, and tools in order to perform these functions properly. Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this instruction and on the product. If these hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons. Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible circumstance of a potential hazard. Therefore, the warnings in this publication and the warnings that are on the product are not all inclusive. Avoid using a tool, a procedure, a work method, or operating technique that is not recommended by Caterpillar. If used, ensure the safety of the operating personnel and others. https://sis.cat.com/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisweb/... 3/5/2014 Advanced Full Text Search - REHS5595 - Installation Procedure for Product Link PL420 ...

Brackets that are specific for the truck may be available for the application. Check the list of parts for the truck. • To comply with regulations of FCC for RF human body safety, ensure that antenna is mounted more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from truck operator. • Orient the antenna so that the top of the antenna is in a horizontal position with a clear 360 degree view of the sky. In-dash installation is acceptable/recommended depending on placement. For CT660 retrofits, the antenna should be installed under the storage compartment in the non-metallic dash. • Mount the antenna more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from the PL420 in order to minimize interference between the radio and the antenna. • Keep a distance between the PL420 antenna and other antennas that transmit a radio signal. Caterpillar recommends a distance of 1 m (3.3 ft). Keep no less than 500 mm (19.7 inch) between the PL420 antenna and other antennas that transmit a radio signal. The list of radio antennas to maintain a distance from include the citizen band radio, data radio and commercial communication radios. https://sis.cat.com/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisweb/... 3/5/2014 Advanced Full Text Search - REHS5595 - Installation Procedure for Product Link PL420 ... Page 7 of 40 • Keep in mind the routing of the antenna cable. Do not route the antenna cable near any source of extreme heat (exhaust). Do not mount the antenna or the antenna cable so that the limitations of temperature −40° C (−40.0° F) and 85° C (185.0° F)are exceeded. • Route the antenna cable so the cable would not be subject to abrasion or pinching. • Route the antenna cable with a minimum bend radius of 49.5 mm (1.94 inch). Bend radius depends on the type of cable used. Do not bend the radius any less than ten times the diameter of the cable. The cable used is LMR 200UF . The mounting hole diameter considered is 19 mm (0.75 inch).

Locate the PL420 unit on the bottom metal brace, as close to the firewall as practical. Do not stretch the wires as stretching will cause intermittent operation of the PL420. The ideal location is next to the raised area of the bracket, closet to the firewall, but only if the cable connection will allow. Mark the hole locations. 7. Remove PL420 to accommodate the drilling operation. 1/8 inch pilot holes are recommended before inserting the #6 self tapping screws. The bracket material is heavy and may be difficult to drill. 8. Install the harness and antenna wiring. Secure the PL420 with the self tapping screws. 9. If not already installed, install Blast Warning Label on visor. Record Status If there is an issue with the installation or a question regarding the status at the time of installation, creating screenshots will greatly aid in beginning the investigation. Create a few screenshots before disconnecting Cat ET and leaving the truck. https://sis.cat.com/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisweb/... 3/5/2014 Advanced Full Text Search - REHS5595 - Installation Procedure for Product Link PL4...

Refer to Illustration 15 through Illustration 18. Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Card Replacement The PL420 ships with a valid Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card installed from the factory. There may be circumstances, however, that require changing the SIM card. This section covers the mechanical steps to swap out a SIM card. Note: There is no mechanism at this time to define new SIM card parameters with Cat ET. Therefore, cellular providers outside the ATT worldwide network of partners are not supported at this time. Check with your Caterpillar Service Rep for information prior to changing cellular carriers. Steps to Replace a SIM Card Replacing a SIM Card should be performed in a clean, dry, dust-free environment. If the PL420 is already installed on the truck, the PL420 should be removed. The process of replacing or upgrading a SIM Card follows these basic steps: 1. Remove SIM card cover 2. Remove battery 3. Remove existing card 4. Insert new SIM card 5. Replace battery and SIM card cover SIM Card Removal 1. Deactivate currently installed SIM card in preparation for replacement. Note: Refer to Product Link DSN for information on deactivating current SIM card 2. Locate SIM card access cover on the back of the PL420. 3. Remove the flat head screw using a flat head screwdriver. https://sis.cat.com/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisweb/... 3/5/2014 Advanced Full Text Search - REHS5595 - Installation Procedure for Product Link PL4...

Symptom Procedures Electronic Service Tool Does Not Communicate with ECM System Operation Description During the installation of a PL420 system, the wiring harness is connected to the existing Data Link wiring on the truck. If the installation is not done properly, the continuity of the Cat Data Link wiring may be open intermittently. This condition may not be apparent immediately. Improper installation will cause a problem when you are trying to connect the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) service tool to the truck. • Cat ET may report that no ECM has been found. • Cat ET may not report every ECM that is on the truck. • Cat ET may report an ECM but the ECM will not have any data. If the Data Link wires for the PL420 are reversed, the ECM will not appear after connecting Cat ET. Test Step 1. VERIFY THAT THE DATA LINK WIRES ARE NOT REVERSED. A Check that the positive Data Link wire (893-GN) in the wiring harness for the PL420 is connected to the wire (893-GN or 944-OR) of the wire harness for the truck. B Check that the negative Data Link wire (892-BR) in the wiring harness for the PL420 is connected to the negative Data Link wire (892-BR or 945-BR) of the wire harness for the truck.

Page 30 of 40 Test Step 2. CHECK THE WIRING WITH A MULTIMETER. A Turn off the truck and turn the disconnect switch to the OPEN position. B Measure the resistance of the negative Data Link wire from the service connector (contact "E") to the location for the spliced Data Link wire. Note the resistance. C Measure the resistance of the positive Data Link wire from the service connector (contact "D") to the location for the spliced Data Link wire. Note the resistance. Expected Result The resistance in both wires is less than 5 ohms. Results • OK - The resistance is less than 5 ohms. Proceed to ""Test Step 3" ". • NOT OK - The resistance is greater than 5 ohms. Repair Repair the wiring harness. After repairing, resume the PL420 installation setup procedures. STOP. Test Step 3. VERIFY THAT THE WIRING FOR THE Data Link IS PROPERLY CONNECTED. A Check the spliced connections for the Data Link that were made during the installation. Verify that all connections are clean and tight. B Reconnect the harness connectors that were disturbed during the installation. Ensure that all of the pins are correctly seated in the sockets. C Reconnect the cable from the service tool connector.
