General Information
SMCS - 7490

The monitoring system is an input and an output of the Machine Control System. The Machine
Control System communicates back and forth on the CAN Data Link. The monitoring system
consists of the following components: display with numerous screens and menus, keypad, indicators
and gauges. These components will be described throughout this manual.

The monitoring system informs the operator of the status of the machine. The monitoring system
includes a graphic display that allows the operator to view information that pertains to machine
functions. Refer to Illustration 1.

(7) Keypad

The monitoring system display will display various warnings and information about the condition of
the machine. The monitoring system display has three gauges and a number of alert indicators. Each
gauge is dedicated to a parameter within a machine system. The monitoring system will allow the
user to do the following:

z View system status information

z View parameters

z View service intervals

z Perform calibrations

z Troubleshoot machine systems

Some of the possible parameters of the machine systems are listed: fuel level, engine coolant
temperature and hydraulic oil temperature. The gauges receive information from sensors or senders
that are connected to the controller. The controller uses the information from each sensor input to
calculate the value that is shown on the gauges.

The alert indicators will notify the operator of an abnormal condition in a machine system. The
controller uses information from pressure switches, sensors and other inputs in order to determine
when an abnormal condition is present. The controller will send a message to the monitoring system
display. Then, the monitoring system will display a pop up alert indicator for the machine system
with the abnormal condition.
