Introduction

This Special Instruction will provide instructions for installation and configuration of second-generation Product Link systems, PL121SR and PL321SR.

This Special Instruction also provides instructions on replacing the first generation of ProductLink (PL151 and PL201) with the second generation of Product Link (PL121SR and PL321SR) in existing installations.

The second generation of Product Link has been installed on three categories of machines.

One category of machines is referred to as "Legacy" machines. The Legacy machines are oldermachines that do not have a wiring harness that accommodates Product Link already installed. Connectors are not readily available to install the PL121SR and PL321SR components. The Product Link components that are used in the Legacy machines are in the Universal Installation Group.

The second category of machines is referred to as "Product Link Ready" machines. A machine is considered to be "Product Link Ready" if the machine was assembled at the factory with a wiring harness with proper connectors to install PL121SR and PL321SR components. The "Product LinkReady" machines use the components that are in the 257-0430 PL121SR Communication Installation Gp , 273-5724 PL321SR Communication Installation Gp , or the 273-5726 PL300Communication Installation Gp (for machines that already have a PL121SR installed).

The third category of machines that are not Caterpillar machines. These machines use the components of the 257-0430 PL121SR Communication Installation Gp .

Personal injury or death can result when voiding this certification.

Structural damage, an overturn, modification, alteration, or improper repair can impair the Rollover Protective Structure's (ROPS)

protection capability thereby voiding this certification.

Do not drill holes in the ROPS. Do not weld on the ROPS unless welding is specified in the procedure. Place welds only at the locations that are

specified in the procedure.



To avoid possible weakening of this ROPS, consult a Caterpillar dealer before altering this ROPS in any way. The protection offered by this ROPS will be impaired if it has been subjected to structural damage.

Consult a Caterpillar dealer to determine this structure's limitations without voiding its certification.

Installing/Mounting the PL121SR Radio

Illustration 18 shows the mounting of the PL121SR radio.


Example for mounting the PL121SR radio

Select a Location for Mounting the PL121SR Radio

Refer to Illustration 19 and Illustration 20 for appropriate mounting examples.




View of a radio that is mounted in an appropriate location


View of cables with appropriate bend radius

The location for the Radio must allow enough room to prevent sharp bends in the Radio Harness or the antenna cable. The minimum bend radius of the antenna cable is 50.8 mm (2 inch). Bending the antenna cable too tightly may result in reduced performance, signal loss, or permanent damage to the cable. Refer to Illustration 19 and Illustration 20.



Do not connect the 257-9364 Universal Harness As or the 256-6804 Control Harness As directly to the PL121SR radio. Connecting either of these harnesses directly to the PL121SR radio will disrupt communications between Cat ET and the radio.

Do not mount the PL121SR radio in an area that will expose the radio to extreme conditions of heat. Exposure to high heat may make the radio inoperable.

The preferred mounting location for the radio is inside the cab or another enclosed structure. If you are unable to place the radio inside the cab, then orient the radio with the two TNC antenna connectors downward. Refer to Illustration 18.

Mount the radio more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from the antenna in order to minimize interference between the radio and the antenna.

Mount the radio accordingly so that the antenna cable can be connected without producing any sharp bends that may damage the cable.

The maximum torque for the radio mounting bolts is 3.5 Nm (2.6 lb ft).

The maximum torque for the TNC antenna connectors is 0.68 Nm (6 lb in).

Locate the radio so that the radio connectors are not exposed to high-pressure spray or underwater immersion. Exposure to high-pressure spray or underwater immersion may compromise the connector seals and lead to connection failure.

Do not attach the radio to the ROPS.

The radio must be installed on a flat surface.

Do not mount the radio in direct sunlight.

For more specific guidelines, refer to Special Instruction, SEHS6929, "Inspection, Maintenance, and Repair of Rollover Protective Structures (ROPS) and Attachment Installation Guidelines" as well as any other published guidelines that are specific for a machine serial number.

Mounting Instructions for the PL121SR Radio

Once the location for the radio has been chosen, refer to Illustration 18. The Illustration 18 shows the proper location and size of the holes that are needed to mount the radio.

Refer to Illustration 10 for a template of the radio.

Lay out the necessary hole pattern. Refer to Illustration 18.1.

Drill the holes.2.

Install the required bolts, washers, and locknuts in order to secure the radio.3.

Tighten the mounting bolts for the radio to 3.5 Nm (2.6 lb ft).4.

Refer to "Completing the Installation" for information on proper application of the Data Privacy Film and Blast Zone Warning Film.

PL321SR System Installation



Installing PL321SR on D7E TTT

The D7E TTT does not have Cat Data Link (CDL) and cannot communicate with the standard 262-1421 Communication Electronics Gp (PRODUCT LINK 300). To install a PL321SR on the D7E, a 285-1142 Electronic Control Module (VIMS) is used in place of the PL300. ECM footprint and wiring remain the same. Also, the PL VIMS ECM uses a different flash file than the PL300. Refer to Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Testing and Adjusting, RENR7911, "Product Link121S/300" for more instructions on flashing the ECM using Cat ET WinFlash program.

Installing PL321SR on K-Series MWL and LWL

K-Series MWL and LWL come standard with Payload Control System (PCS) and cannot use the standard 262-1421 Communication Electronics Gp (PRODUCT LINK 300). To install a PL321SR on a K-Series MWL or LWL, a 285-1142 Electronic Control Module (VIMS) is used in place of the PL300. ECM footprint and wiring remain the same. Also, the PL VIMS ECM uses a different flash file than the PL300, along with a PCS config file. Refer to Systems Operation, Troubleshooting, Testing and Adjusting, RENR7911, "Product Link 121S/300" for moreinstructions on flashing the ECM using Cat ET WinFlash program and updating the PCS - only config file using VIMSpc.

An alternate method for mounting the PL300 ECM

Select a Location for the PL300 ECM

When mounting the PL300 ECM, ensure that the supplied 6 m (19.7 ft) harness will connect between the radio and the PL300 ECM.



Orient the ECM module so that the ECM connector will not be subjected to high-pressure spray or underwater immersion. Exposure to high-pressure spray or underwater immersion may compromise the connector seal and will lead to connector failure.

Do not mount the ECM module in the engine compartment or in other areas so that the ECM will be exposed to extreme heat. Exposure to extreme heat may make the ECMinoperable.

Do not mount the ECM module in an area so that the ECM could be damaged.

The ECM must be installed on a flat surface.

The desired static stiffness of the mounting points for the Product Link should be 1800N/mm (ten times mount stiffness). In no case should the stiffness at the mountingpoints be less than 540N/mm (three times the mount stiffness).

A boss or a welded stud is the preferred mounting hardware on a machine.

The mounting torque on the mounting bolts is 12 Nm (8.8 lb ft).

Refer to Illustration 29 for the connection of the ground strap.

Mounting Instructions for the PL300 on Legacy Machines

Installation of the Satellite Antenna

Select a Location for Mounting the Antenna

Note: The hard mount antenna is preassembled with a lock washer, a nut, a coaxial cable, and radio connectors. The cutout for the mounting hole allows the radio components to pass through the optional 293-3521 Plate . The cutout hole allows the cable components to pass through the cab roof into the interior of the cab. Brackets that are specific for the machine may be available for the application. Check the list of parts for the machine. The magnetic base antenna is preassembled with the coaxial cable and the radio connectors.

In order to comply with regulations of the FCC for RF human body safety, ensure that the antenna is mounted more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from the machine operator.

Orient the antenna so that the satellite antenna is in a vertical position with a clear 360 degree view of the sky. The center of the cab roof is the ideal location in order to mount the antenna.

Mount the antenna more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from the PL121SR radio in order to minimize interference between the radio and the antenna.



Keep a distance between the Product Link antenna and other antennas that transmit a radio of at least 500 mm (19.7 inch). The list of radio antennas to maintain a distance from includes: citizen band radio, data radio and commercial communication radios.

Mount the antenna no less than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from any metal surface above the ground plane of the antenna in order to minimize interference. The satellite antenna signal isradiated outward in an expanding toroidal shape (donut) in order to capture satellites coming over the horizon. The internal GPS antenna receives satellite signals from above and to the sides. Refer to Illustration 32 and Illustration 33 for patterns of transmission and reception for the antennas.

The magnetic mount antenna requires direct contact with a flat, ferrous metal surface to maintain the mounting location.

The hard mount antenna requires a "keyhole" cutout. The cutout allows the antenna parts to pass through a bracket or the cab roof into the interior of the cab. The cutout is also backward compatible with the old style of antennas with the smaller mounting stud. Refer to Illustration 2.

The location of the antenna must be considered. When you choose a location, refer to Table 1 for available lengths of the coaxial cables. Caterpillar recommends direct routing of the cable. Dealing with excessive lengths of coaxial cable increases the chance of an issue with performance.

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 thelimitations of temperature are exceeded: 40 C (40 F)80 C (176 F). 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 100 mm (3.9 inch).

Secure the antenna cable every 457 mm (18 inch) or shorter if necessary. Coil any excess antenna cable in a figure eight by using loops with a 200 mm (7.9 inch) diameter. This double loop prevents the antenna from being detuned. The 200 mm (7.9 inch) loop diameter prevents tight bends which could cause detuning or shorting of the antenna and minimizes standing waves within the cable and resultant reflected energy that could result in prematurefailure of the radio. Properly secure any excess antenna cable to the machine. Shortening the antenna cable could result in an inconsistent transfer of data.

Note: Due to the VHF properties of the antenna, satellites directly overhead cannot be seen. The satellite antenna signal is radiated outward in an expanding toroidal shape (donut) in order to capture satellites coming over the horizon.




Antenna GPS signal reception pattern




Communication satellite reception / transmission

Note: When selecting a location to mount the Product Link antenna, the single most important item to consider is the view of the sky. The base of the Product Link antenna serves as the GPS antenna. The flexible vertical whip serves as the VHF antenna for communication with the Orbcomm (communication) satellites.

Note: The base of the antenna should have a clear view of the sky from horizon to horizon in all directions (360 degrees). Refer to Illustration 32 and Illustration 33. In most cases, the cab roof usually provides an optimal view of the sky with minimal blockages. The Product Link antenna should be mounted so that the flexible whip is always pointed in the vertical position.

View of a correct installation of a Product Link antenna

Illustration 34 and Illustration 35 are both examples of good installations of the antenna.Illustration 34 and Illustration 35 show the antenna mounted on the roof of the cab or ROPS. Caterpillar recommends mounting the antenna on the roof of the cab for the following reasons:

Typically, the roof is the highest point on the machine.



The roof is a suitable ground plane.

Note: Do not mount the antenna horizontally.

Note: Mount the antenna on the highest point of the machine in order to ensure the best reception.

Note: If Product Link is standard on the machine, check the latest schematics for a representation of an ideal location.

Interference from Warning Beacons

Roof-mounted warning beacons generate electromagnetic interference that can severely impact the ability of Product Link to communicate with the ORBCOMM satellite network. Always mount the Product Link antenna as far from any existing warning beacon as possible. Refer to Table 16 for the minimum recommended mounting distance from various beacon types.

Minimum Recommended Distance Between Product Link Antenna and Warning Beacons

Beacon Type Example Part Number Minimum Distance

Gas Tube Strobe 248-2985 1828.8 mm (72 inch)

Rotating 235-3937 355.6 mm (14 inch)

LED 338-1132 304.8 mm (12 inch)

Table 16

Installation of the Hard Mount Antenna

After a suitable location has been chosen to place the antenna, perform the following procedure in order to install the hard mount antenna:

If placing the antenna on the cab roof, supply the necessary access hole or mount the optional 293-3521 Plate in a suitable location.

1.

Feed the antenna cable components and the threaded part of the antenna base through the access hole or through the hole in the bracket.

2.

Place the washer and the nut on the threaded part of the antenna base. Tighten to 7 Nm (5 lb ft).

3.

Note: Scrape paint away from where the antenna lock washer will contact the metal surface in order to ensure a good ground.

Route the cable.4.

Note: An appropriate rubber grommet must be used in the access hole to protect the antenna cable from damage.

Note: Rain, other moisture, or condensation will tend to collect on and travel along the cable to the lowest point of the cable. If the cable has a low point where the cable enters the



cab, moisture will enter the structure, even if a grommet is used. A "drip loop" of slack cable must be formed. The drip loop provides a low point at the bottom of the drip loopbefore the cable passes into the structure.

Connect the connectors for the antenna to the appropriate connectors for the radio.5.

Secure the antenna cable.6.

Note: The gasket for the antenna base should provide a seal that is moisture tight around the mounting hole.

Note: The antenna is shipped from the supplier with a "removable strength" thread lockbetween the whip and base. If the whip is removed, Caterpillar recommends the following before reinstalling the whip:

Clear any debris from the base.a.

Clean the threads.b.

Apply a "removable strength" thread lock when reattaching the whip. Caterpillar recommends using 185-3996 Thread Lock Compound .

c.

Installation of Magnetic Mount Antenna

After a suitable location has been chosen, perform the following procedure in order to install the magnetic mount antenna:

Find an existing point of entry or make an access hole that can be sealed (moisture tight) and that is large enough to accommodate the connectors for the antenna and cable.

1.

Note: The connectors for the antenna are 15 mm (0.6 inch) in diameter.

Feed the connectors for the antenna cable through the access hole.2.


Route the cable.3.

Note: Any type of moisture can collect on and travel along the cable to the lowest point of the cable. If the cable has a low point where the cable enters the cab, moisture will enter the structure, even if a grommet is used. A "drip loop" of slack cable must be formed. The drip loop provides a low point at the bottom of the drip loop before the cable passes into the structure.

Note: If using the antenna with 0.5 m (1.6 ft) coax length, 351-8545 Antenna , 353-8773 Antenna Cable As may also be required. The point where the antenna coaxial cable connects to 353-8773 Antenna Cable As should be mounted horizontally, with drip loops on either side, to prevent water from pooling on the connectors.

Seal the access hole.4.

Connect the connectors for the antenna to the appropriate connectors for the radio.5.




Note: The antenna is shipped from the supplier with a "removable strength" thread lock between the whip and base adapter. If the whip is removed, Caterpillar recommends the following before reinstalling the whip:

Clear any debris from the base.a.

Clean the threads.b.

Apply a "removable strength" thread lock when reattaching the whip. Caterpillar recommends using 185-3996 Thread Lock Compound .

c.

Installation of the Cellular Antenna and Satellite Whip

The 346-9376 Antenna As (PL522/523 Shark Fin antenna) can be used as an alternative satellite antenna to improve satellite communication performance. To use the cellular antenna for satellitecommunications, the 355-1205 Antenna , and the 353-8773 Antenna Cable AS must be added.

Location for Mounting the Antenna

Note: The hard mount antenna is preassembled with lock washer, nut, 0.5 m (1.64 ft) coaxial cable and radio connectors. The cutout for mounting hole allows the radio connectors, nut, and lock washer to pass through the optional 293-3521 Plate or through the cab. Brackets that are specific for the machine may be available for the application. Check the list of parts for the machine.

To comply with regulations of FCC for RF human body safety, ensure that antenna is mounted more than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from machine operator.

Orient the antenna so that the antenna is in a vertical position with a clear 360 Degree view of the sky. The center of the cab is the ideal location in order to mount the antenna.

Mount the antenna more than 500 mm (19.6 inch) from the PL522/523 in order to minimizeinterference between the radio and the antenna.

Keep a distance between the PL522/523 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 PL522/523 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.




Antenna GPS signal reception pattern

Mount the antenna no less than 500 mm (19.7 inch) from any metal surface and above the ground plane of antenna to minimize interference. Refer to Illustration 36 for patterns of transmission and reception for the antenna.

Keep in mind the routing of the antenna cable. Do not route the antenna cable near anysource of extreme heat (exhaust). Do not mount the antenna or the antenna cable so that the limitations of temperature are exceeded. 40 C (40.0 F) and 85 C (185.0 F)

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 antenna can use a keyhole cutout if using a bracket for mounting. The connectors, nut, and washer can pass through this keyhole. This cutout is also backward compatible with theold style of antennas with the smaller mounting stud.

If the antenna is mounted directly to cab roof and relied upon for sealing, a 19 mm (0.74inch) round hole must be used. To install, remove the nut from the cables by utilizing the notch feature in the nut. Place one cable in the notch and pull the opposite connector through.

If a cellular / satellite antenna is not installed, then the grommets and button plugs can be used with a 19 mm (0.74 inch) hole. The part numbers of the grommets are 6V-1626, 6P-6591, 5P-6549 and 5H-9695. The part numbers of the button plugs are 055-2102, 237-2652, 5K-3546 and 7X-1434.




Long horizontal axis of the antenna should be parallel to the vehicle. Refer to Illustration 37.

Secure the antenna cable every 457 mm (17.9 inch) or shorter if necessary. Coil any excess antenna cable with a single 200 mm (7.8 inch) diameter loop in the cable. Properly secure any excess antenna cable to the machine. Shortening the antenna cable could result in an inconsistent transfer of data.

Note: When selecting a location to mount the PL522/523 antenna, the single most important item to consider is the view of the sky. The base of the PL522/523 antenna serves as the GPS antenna. The vertical stud serves as the cellular antenna for communication.

The roof is a suitable ground plane.

Note: Do not mount the antenna horizontally.

Note: If PL321 or PL522/523 is standard on the machine, check the latest schematics for a representation of an ideal location.

Installation of the Antenna

After a suitable location has been chosen to place the antenna, perform the following procedure in order to install the Antenna:

If placing the antenna on the cab roof, supply the necessary access hole or mount theoptional 293-3521 Plate in a suitable location.

1.





Feed the connectors for antenna cable, washer, locknut, and threaded part of antenna base through access hole or through hole in the bracket. Refer to Illustrations 38 and 39.

2.




Feed antenna base through key hole or round hole. Refer to Illustration 40.3.


Place the washer and the nut on the threaded part of the antenna base. Refer to Illustration 41.

4.




Tighten nut to 7 Nm (5.1 lb ft). Refer to Illustration 42.5.

Note: When using the 19 mm (0.74 inch) round hole, the gasket for the antenna base shouldprovide a seal that is moisture tight around the mounting hole.


Connect the connectors for the antenna to the appropriate connectors on the coax extension, making sure that the connectors are as tight as possible by hand. Refer to Illustration 43.

6.




Route the coax to the PL522/523. Refer to Illustration 44.7.

Route the coax cables without looping. If excess cable is unavoidable, loop excess cable in a single 100 mm (3.9 inch), or larger circular loop. Do not use excessive force on the tie straps.

8.

Note: For any machine using the PL522/523 antenna, a two piece antenna coax is required. Depending on the machine group, space claim should be made available for future use for 3 coax cables.



Good drip loop




Bad drip loop

Note: Rain, other moisture, or condensation can collect on and travel along the cable to the lowest point of the cable. If such a low point coincides with the passage of the cable into the cab, moisture will pass into the structure (even through the grommet). Hence form a drip loop of slack cable to provide for a low point at the bottom of drip loop before cable passes into structure. Refer to Illustration 45 for an example of a good drip loop. Refer to Illustration 46 for an example of a bad drip loop.

Note: If possible, keep the connection point on the cellular antenna horizontal, with drip loops on either side, to prevent water from pooling on the connectors.





Connect the connectors for the coax extension to the appropriate connectors for thePL522/523. Refer to Illustrations 47 and 48.

9.





Do not over-tighten the tie-downs on the cable. Damage to the cable may occur. Refer to Illustration 49.

11.

Remove the plastic plug from the top of the antenna to expose the threaded hole.12.

Attach the 355-1205 Antenna (optional satellite whip) to the top of the antenna.13.

Optional Antenna Protective Cover

An optional 318-2347 Cover can reduce the antenna damage in forestry applications or other environments where the Product Link antenna may be damaged by tree limbs, scrap metal, and debris.




Optional 318-2347 Cover

The protective cover will fit over either the satellite antenna or the cellular antenna and has a rectangular base. The approximate dimensions for the protective cover are 136 105 mm. Review the specific antenna mounting method used on the machine to determine if there is room to install the optional 318-2347 Cover .

PL300 Digital InputsThe PL300 ECM provides four digital "switch-to-ground" type inputs that can be used for alarming functions in a PL321SR installation. This feature allows the PL321SR to monitor a pressure, temperature, or level that is not normally provided through a machine ECM.




Note: Only use pressure, temperature, level, or other type switches that incorporate dry contacts for the switch output. Do not wire in any switches that will source voltage back to the digital input. The +8 VDC power supply is provided for electronic switches that incorporate dry contacts for the switch output (magnetic reed relay or similar device).

Optional Installation of Product Link Blast Zone SwitchLocal mine regulations typically require a safe blast zone operating distance that exceeds the regulations specified for Product Link. Therefore, blast zone disconnect switches are normally not required. This section addresses the addition of a blast zone power switch to Product Link if one is required on the machine.

SolutionWiring instructions are provided in the following procedure that will allow customers to disable Product Link. The customer will still be able to operate the machine.

Note: While the switch is OFF, no communication between the radio and EquipmentManager or VisionLink will take place.

Procedure

Place the main disconnect switch in the OFF position.1.

Refer to Illustration 52, Illustration 53, or Illustration 54 for your particular installation and locate wire 125-OR. This wire is unswitched power for the PL121SR (pin 1) and PL300 (pin 52).

2.

Find a convenient location to cut wire 125-OR. Strip the insulation from each end of the wire. Crimp a 8T-8729 Connector Pin to each bare wire. Install one 115-8109 Wire Splice on each connector pin.

3.

Mount the 260-5865 Toggle Switch in a convenient location in the cab. Refer to Illustration 55. Illustration 55 is not to scale. Place the 293-4950 Film near the switch.

4.

Run two lengths of 5P-9075 Electrical Wire between the splices and the toggle switch. Protect the wire and tie-wrap the wire.

5.

On the splice end of the wire, strip the insulation from each end of the wire. Crimp a 8T-8729 Connector Pin to each bare wire. Insert the connectors into the open ends of the splices.

6.



On the switch end of the wire, strip the insulation from each end of the wire. Crimp a 8T-8730 Connector Socket to each bare wire. Insert the two sockets into location "A" and location "B" of a 155-2267 Connector Plug As . Insert a 155-2276 Plug Lock Wedge in order to lock the sockets in place.

7.

Connect the 155-2267 Connector Plug As to the 3E-3370 Connector Receptacle As on the260-5865 Toggle Switch .

8.

Place the main disconnect switch in the ON position. Place the Product Link disconnect switch in the "OFF" position.

9.

Verify that no power is applied to the Product Link module.10.

Place the Product Link disconnect switch into the ON position. Verify that power is applied to the Product Link module.

11.

Operation

In order to use the Product Link disconnect switch, perform the following steps:

From the "Engine Running" condition, place the keyswitch in the OFF position.1.

Wait for approximately 10 seconds. Ten seconds will allow time for the parameters to be stored to memory.

2.

Place the Product Link disconnect switch in the OFF position.3.

Place the Product Link disconnect switch in the ON position when conditions are safe.4.

Important Notes

Note: The key must be placed in the OFF position for a minimum of 10 seconds before the Product Link disconnect switch is place in the OFF position. Failure to place the key in the OFF position for a minimum of 10 seconds may cause the current parameters for hours or location to be lost and/or corrupted.

Note: When the Product Link disconnect switch is in the OFF position, no communication between the machine and EquipmentManager or VisionLink will take place.

Note: While the blast zone switch is in the OFF position, the PL121SR/PL321SR will not track "SMH" hours. A "SMH" adjustment will be required after power is restored to Product Link.
