Dear Dealer Principal and Sales Representatives:

Mack has been the leader in total integrated vehicle systems since the inception of our
modern electronics software program, V-MAC I, in 1990. Our devotion and success in inte-
grated vehicle electronics continues today with our most recently released Vehicle
Management And Control system, V-MAC IV. At the heart of the system are hundreds of
programmable features, adding a new level of efficiency and convenience to everyday vehi-
cle operation. V-MAC IV is the next generation of truck electronics, designed to help the
customer succeed in a highly competitive business.

Historically, we have always put great emphasis on the product hardware – literally the nuts
and the bolts of the truck. Now with the MP Series of Mack engines, we must focus on the
value added features of the V-MAC IV system that will allow the “nuts and bolts” to perform
to higher customer product expectations. The difference from a product that may meet
your customer’s performance expectations to one that clearly exceeds it , generally gets
down to the critical V-MAC IV settings, a factory NO CHARGE value added proposition.

In a continued effort to keep our customer and dealer network fully informed and up-to-date,
the Sales and Marketing, and Engineering departments have teamed up with Powertrain
Engineering to develop this V-MAC IV Technical Sales Manual. In it, you will find useful
information on all major electronic related features, including programmable parameters,
potential benefits, and additional information that will guide you to further levels of data
through the VCADS PC Service Support Software. This manual covers only electronic fea-
tures found in MackTraq, offering an easy to use yet informative sales tool designed to help
you add electronics value, and support your customer’s needs.

Mack is committed to offering more to our customers, from great new engines and electron-
ics systems, to a full range of support and service that every company and driver needs to
stay competitive and profitable.

Please contact either me or your dedicated Regional Powertrain Sales Manager listed on
the next page for any further assistance.

Sincerely,
MACK TRUCKS, INC.

V-MAC IV SYSTEM
ARCHITECTURE
 V-MAC IV SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

V-MAC IV SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

V-MAC IV’s system architecture sets a new standard for the Class 8 trucking industry. V-MAC IV is a 3 module system, divid-
ing control functions between the engine mounted Engine EMS, and cab mounted Vehicle ECU (VECU) and Cluster ECU. This
design allows all sensors and switch inputs as well as device controller outputs to be localized, minimizing wiring through the
bulkhead and reducing overall system cost and complexity. Module-to-module control communication is through the J1939 high
speed serial line, which is also used to communicate with ABS and optional automated transmissions. The J1587 line is used
for service, instrumentation, and display functions. This flexible system architecture also allows each module to be custom
designed for its intended function. The Engine EMS is devoted primarily to powertrain control functions, the VECU for whole
vehicle features, and the Cluster ECU for instrumentation.

ENGINE EMS

The new V-MAC IV Engine Management System (EMS) is designed and manufactured
in partnership with Mack for exclusive use on MP series engines. Module hard-
ware and software are engineered to work together to provide smooth, precise con-
trol of injection timing and fuel delivery via the E3 electronic unit injectors under all
operating conditions.

The rugged 10.5" x 9" x 2" engine mounted module is encased in a heavy-duty
vented aluminum cover, is fuel cooled for additional reliability, and meets or exceeds all
applicable SAE reliability test requirements. Harness connections have locking bails and
are all keyed to prevent mismatching. Serial communication is through the SAE J1587 and
J1939 (CAN) serial lines. The J1939 line is used for direct multiplexed high speed commu-
nication at 250k bandwidth to the Vehicle ECU (VECU). The EMS features surface mount component technology, using 70
input/output (I/O) pins for required functions. All software is flash programmable for field reprogramming.

VEHICLE ECU (VECU)

The V-MAC IV VECU is designed by Mack Trucks, Inc. and manufactured exclusive-
ly for Mack. It features a high end, real-time, state-of-the-art automotive/indus-
trial-type microcontroller that provides considerable gains in processing time
over the microcontroller used for V-MAC III vehicle management. All software
and data files are flash programmable, meaning they can be reprogrammed in
the field without module replacement.

The compact 5" x 4.25" x 1.5" cab mounted module is air cooled and features sur-
face mounted component technology. Sixty input/output devices are used to measure
and control vehicle functions. Communication to external data devices is through the J1587
and J1939 serial lines.

VECU software is designed and written exclusively to Mack specifications. With built-in capacity to grow, Mack will continually
expand and improve the software features and functions list to meet the increasing demands of our customers.

 V-MAC IV SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

CLUSTER ECU
The Cluster ECU has been designed and developed by Mack Trucks, Inc. for use with our recently released V-MAC IV integrat-
ed vehicle electronics system. The Cluster ECU controls primary instrumentation functions, including switches, buttons, and
gauges. The unit itself is contained within the sealed instrument cluster for protection and extended life, and is designed to
communicate with both the standard segmented display and optional Co-Pilot driver information display. A total of 81 I/Os are
provided to control the cluster plus many customizable V-MAC IV functions, including sleeper power management, heated mir-
ror timer, and iTAS* (integrated Temp-A-Start). Several spare inputs and outputs allow for the easy integration of future
technology.

The Cluster ECU is capable of communicating using both SAE J1587 and J1939 communication standards. All gauge drivers
are fully multiplexed, receiving and transmitting signals from sensor or other ECUs directly through the central IC05 microproces-
sor, rather than requiring redundant gauge sensors. The Cluster ECU includes a real-time clock to a maintain power to the
entire V-MAC IV system even with the battery disconnected, and for accurate time and date stamping of critical information in
the DataMax trip recorder.

* iTAS feature planned for upcoming release.

CRUISE CONTROL
 CRUISE CONTROL
CRUISE CONTROL BASICS
Mack’s Cruise Control (CC) system operates in the same familiar way as everyday automobiles. The CC function allows the
vehicle operator to maintain a specific vehicle speed without the use of the accelerator pedal. The operator may set the CC
speed and accelerate/decelerate using dash mounted rocker switches. The instrument cluster will notify the operator when a
CC set speed is engaged via the green CC engaged symbol indicator lamp. The optional Co-Pilot cluster will display a pop-up screen
showing target MPH when CC is first engaged using the dash switches. The pop-up screen will be displayed for several seconds and
then clear automatically.
Cruise Control is included with every Mack vehicle, however, it can be disabled or turned off through VCADS Service Support
Software, if necessary. For CC to function the Speed Control Switch must be placed in the ON position. Vehicle speed must
be above the Cruise Control Minimum Set Speed and below the Cruise Control Maximum Set Speed. The clutch and serv-
ice brake pedals must be released, and parking brake and PTOs must not be activated. CC will be canceled if any of the above
conditions are violated.
3
Two rocker switches are located on the dash:

1. Speed Control Switch (SPD CTRL): Depressing this switch illuminates the Speed
Control icon and activates the ability to set CC

2. Set/Decel Switch: Depressing this half of the rocker switch will set CC at the current
vehicle speed if the Speed Control switch is activated. Additional switch inputs will
decrease CC set speed in about 1 MPH increments per press. Holding the switch
down will decrease the speed at a continuous rate until CC Min Set Speed is reached.

3. Resume/Accel Switch: Depressing this half of the rocker switch will return to the last
set CC speed (if canceled) if the Speed Control switch is activated. Additional switch 1 2
inputs will increase CC set speed in about 1 MPH increments per press. Holding the
switch down will increase speed at a continuous rate until CC Max Set Speed is
reached. Accelerating with the throttle and then depressing the switch will also reset
the CC set speed.

CC Min Set Speed is the lowest MPH value that CC can be set. If vehicle speed is below this threshold, CC operation will be
inhibited. CC Min Set Speed defines the minimum vehicle speed available using the Set/Decel switch when CC is engaged.
CC Max Set Speed limits the maximum vehicle speed available using the Resume/Accel switch when CC is engaged. This
value is recommended to be set 2-3 MPH less than the Vehicle Limiting Speed (VLS) to allow the availability of extra power from
the accelerator pedal for passing while in CC mode. When the accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the CC
set speed. The initial CC set speed cannot be higher than the CC Max Set Speed. It is extremely important to gear the vehi-
cle appropriately so that CC Max Set Speed (where the driver will undoubtedly spend most of their time) falls within the vehi-
cle’s optimum Cruise RPM. Optimum Cruise RPM provides the best compromise between fuel economy and performance. A
Cruise RPM of 1500 is recommended on all Mack MP Engines. Final gearing is a result of several spec’ing conditions includ-
ing the engine, transmission, axle ratio, and tire selection.

CC AUTORESUME WITH CLUTCH BASICS

If the CC AUTORESUME with Clutch option is enabled, depressing the clutch when shifting with the CC active will act as a tem-
porary drop-out, or cancel, rather than as a full cancel. The CC will automatically resume to the last valid CC set speed after
the clutch is released. If this option is disabled, depressing the clutch while CC is engaged will cause the CC to fully cancel
and the driver must use the set or resume switches to re-engage the CC.

CRUISE N’ BRAKE
The Cruise n’ Brake feature is designed to anticipate driver needs by engaging the engine brake in a fully automatic manner.
If the Cruise n’ Brake feature is enabled, engine brake activation will be requested if CC is engaged and vehicle speed increas-
es above CC by more than the Cruise n’ Brake Engagement Delay amount. The Cruise n’ Brake Engagement Delay is the
amount (default 3MPH) above CC set speed to which the vehicle can increase before the engine brake is engaged. This buffer
zone keeps the engine brake from engaging constantly and usually will engage in low-grade downhill driving situations.

®
10
 CRUISE CONTROL
A Cruise n’ Brake operating range setting, programmable in VCADS, (default 1.5 MPH) tells the engine brake when vehicle
speed has decreased enough for it to shut off. This VCADS parameter is typically not changed, but must always be less than
the Cruise n’ Brake Engagement Delay.

Example: CC is set at 65 MPH and the vehicle is going downhill. With the current default settings, Cruise n’ Brake will auto-
matically activate the engine brake at 68 MPH and deactivate the engine brake at 66.5 MPH, assuming no throttle input.

PARAMETERS:
VCADS
PID NAME DESCRIPTION RANGE DEFAULT

CC Max The maximum vehicle speed attainable using Cruise Control (CC). CC Max 50-90
933 AI Set Speed should normally be set 2-3 MPH below VLS, which allows for some 65
Set Speed reserve MPH for passing situations. MPH

CC Min The lowest vehicle speed possible to engage and remain in CC. If vehicle 10-35
A02 BK speed drops below this level, CC will cancel and cannot be set. This speed 20
Set Speed must be higher than the EHT and PTO Maximum Set Speeds. MPH

CC AutoResume When enabled, the CC will automatically resume during a shift once the clutch Furnish/
A2W EBZ has been released. If disabled, CC will cancel after a shift and it will be nec- Furnish
with Clutch essary to press the resume switch after releasing the clutch pedal. Omit

Cruise n’ Brake If enabled, (at default settings) the engine brake will not activate until the vehi-
cle is 3 MPH above the CC set speed when using CC. This feature saves 2-10
AL1 DJ Engagement 3
fuel and reduces wear by preventing unnecessary or unwanted engine MPH
Delay brake activation.

BENEFITS OF CRUISE CONTROL

The ability to maintain a vehicle speed without using the throttle pedal over time allows the operator to concentrate fully on safe
driving and prevents fatigue. A steady vehicle speed also contributes to better fuel mileage by keeping engine RPM at a con-
stant rate. An inexperienced or inefficient driver who uses CC compared to one that does not, can produce as much as 3%
improvement in fuel economy. By setting CC Max Set Speed within the vehicle’s optimal engine cruise RPM range, better fuel
economy will be delivered. When cruising just 100 RPM above optimal Cruise RPM, there is typically up to a 2% negative
impact on MPG.

Setting an effective and efficient CC Max Set Speed is important. Every 1 MPH reduction in vehicle speed normally improves
fuel economy by 0.1 MPG. The use of the dash speed control switches keeps the foot relaxed and stationary and allows for
precise increases and decreases in vehicle speed. CC AutoResume with Clutch will maintain the CC set speed when shift-
ing so that the operator does not have to continually reset CC. The Cruise n’ Brake features save fuel and reduce wear on the
service brake and prevents unwanted or unnecessary activation of the engine brake.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Additional information on Cruise Control is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your dealer's certi-
fied V-MAC technician for additional details. Examples include the ability to program how much CC set speed increases or
decreases when bumping the Accel/Decel switches, or the rate at which the set speed responds to continuous application of
this switch.

DATAMAX
 DATAMAX
DATAMAX BASICS
DataMax is Mack’s standard comprehensive on-board data logger/trip recorder. With nearly 10 years of proven service since
its V-MAC III introduction in 1998, DataMax provides the customer with a flexible method of monitoring day-to-day vehicle oper-
ation to better manage their fleet and improve productivity. Information gathered by or programmed into Datamax can be
viewed by the driver through the Co-Pilot display, by the service technician using VCADS, or by the fleet manager using InfoMax
(Note: InfoMax for V-MAC IV is currently under development). DataMax is organized based on the individual needs of the user,
including Life-of-Vehicle (LOV) & Periodic Trip Logs for all users, Driver Logs for the driver using Co-Pilot, Fleet Trips & Driver
Event Logs for the fleet manager, Service (fault) and Maintenance Logs for the technician, and an Incident Log for OEM use.
These logs will be described later in greater detail.

All V-MAC IV trips include a standard set of parameters included with each trip (see V-MAC IV DataMax Content Chart), includ-
ing trip start and completion time, date, and odometer readings. Most trip parameters include accumulated time, distance, and
fuel consumed for the condition logged, such as while running, driving, cruising, idling, or while using the PTO. Certain trip
parameters can be set-up by the customer based on individual needs. This includes overspeed monitoring, which allows the
customer to monitor when the vehicle or engine exceeded a selectable MPH or RPM, respectively, either fueled or not fueled.
Some customers use accumulated idle time for driver performance or incentive monitoring. In these cases the Idle Logging
Delay parameter allows the first “x” minutes of idle, such as at a stop light, not to be counted against the driver’s total idle time.

Basic Trip Logs: LOV & Periodic Trips: Basic Trip Logs consist of the LOV Trip, and 12 Periodic Trips. The LOV Trip Log is
used throughout the industry, and accumulates from the very first day of operation, summarizing trip data over the entire life of
the vehicle. LOV Trips are important for obtaining a broad overview of the vehicle’s duty cycle and general operating charac-
teristics.

Periodic Trips are logged automatically by V-MAC and can be defined on a daily (hour of day), weekly (day of week), or monthly
(day of month) basis. DataMax comes standard with 12 Periodic Trips, with a default setting of monthly. When Trip #12 is com-
pleted (assuming the data has not been downloaded/cleared) and the 13th trip begins, the first trip is overwritten. Periodic Trips
are targeted for owner-operators and small fleets who can use a weekly or monthly summary of operating characteristics.

®
14
 DATAMAX
Driver Logs: If equipped with a Co-Pilot driver display, essentially this same basic trip information is available to the driver
using Driver Logs A & B. These two logs can be used to monitor his/her performance while driving, with the 11 most frequent-
ly used driving parameters displayed in Co-Pilot. The Driver Logs can be set and reset by the driver as required, with no per-
manent record available outside the vehicle. Each log can be suspended or placed on hold and resumed later for team driv-
ers or for trip comparative purposes (i.e. compare fuel economy outbound to the return trip).

Fleet Management Logs: Fleet management logs are targeted to fleets and fleet owners, and include 12 Fleet Trips and the
Driver Event Log (DEL). Fleet Trips are used to summarize trip-to-trip vehicle operation. For example, a Fleet Trip might be
designated for a trip from Baltimore to Cleveland, then a 2nd trip designated for Cleveland to Dallas, a 3rd to Atlanta, a 4th back
to Baltimore, and so on. Fleet Trips include a Driver I.D. and Bill-of-Landing entered via Co-Pilot, to assist the fleet with record
keeping. Co-Pilot is also used to advance to the next Fleet Trip. The trip overwrite process is the same as Periodic Trips, in
that the last trip automatically overwrites the first.

The DEL time and date stamps specific events that might occur during a trip, such as engine starts-stops, engine protection
events, PTO use, overspeeds, etc. This creates a detailed record for the fleet manager. Older events are overwritten as mem-
ory becomes filled. Fleet Management Logs are only available using InfoMax software.

Service & Maintenance Logs: DataMax includes several service and maintenance related logs, keeping the maintenance
manager or service technician abreast of much needed upkeep and repair information. These logs are accessible though
VCADS PC Service Support Software. Included is Mack’s Maintenance Monitor (see Maintenance Monitor section) which offers
customizable maintenance tracking. GuardDog (see Maintenance Monitor section) logging provides the status of routine main-
tenance items, such as engine oil, wiper, and coolant levels, and air or fuel filter restriction.

A Service Trip log provides basic trip information for the service technician. Typically this log is reset using VCADS, and is used
to monitor vehicle performance during a service interval or over a defined test period. For example, the technician may reset
the Service Trip, and then request that the vehicle be returned in a week, while the Service Trip monitors critical parameters that
might be used to help diagnose a problem.

Fault & Fault Reporter Logs are used to monitor both active (still occurring) and logged (occurred in the past) faults. Mack’s
Fault Log reports not only the fault status, but the fault source (i.e. coolant temperature), description (i.e. high temp), fault source
ID, number of occurrences, and fault severity. The Fault Reporter provides critical engine or vehicle sensor information in the
seconds leading up to and just after a fault occurrence. Up to four separate faults can be logged and reported, two in the
engine module and two in the vehicle module. The service technician typically resets the Fault Reporter using VCADS, runs a
test route, then uses Fault Reporter to view circumstances surrounding the fault.

 DATAMAX
V-MAC IV’s DataMax includes up to 10 pre-defined histograms. Histograms typically show detailed engine or vehicle opera-
tion in pre-defined segments or buckets, such as fuel consumed in specific RPM or MPH bands. Histograms can be used to
determine things like, “Is the engine brake being used effectively in its power band?”, or “Is engine operation outside of the
cruise RPM zone impacting fuel economy?” For additional information on histograms, please refer to VCADS literature.

Incident Log: The Incident Logs provides information on the engine or vehicle surrounding an incident or accident, such as
engine RPM, vehicle MPH, and pedal and switch positions. The information contained in the Incident Log belongs to the cus-
tomer, but is only accessible through Mack OEM software. Mack provides an Incident Log reporting service. More informa-
tion regarding this service can be obtained thorough your dealer service department.

 DATAMAX
BENEFITS OF DATAMAX
In today's highly competitive heavy-duty trucking industry, maximizing efficiency is critical. Mack’s comprehensive on board
data-logger/trip recorder, DataMax, gives our customers a valuable tool to use in streamlining their operations. The informa-
tion collected in DataMax is valuable from the owner-operator, all the way up to the large fleet owner. The driver/owner has the
opportunity to review the data gathered while they were driving to assess overall efficiency and find problem areas. The con-
clusions reached from this assessment can be used to alter future driving habits for increased profitability. Vehicle and engine
settings can also be tweaked as a result of information gathered through DataMax to strengthen efficiency.

Service and Maintenance Logs are truly a technician’s best friend, offering many unique opportunities to diagnose repair issues
through Service Trip logs. Faults are easily diagnosed with DataMax, often without the involving a service technician in the
process. Incident Logs offer unique insight into the last moments surrounding an incident or serious accident, giving the abil-
ity to evaluate the circumstances surrounding the event.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Additional information on selected DataMax data is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. For example, using
VCADS, a technician can view the LOV and Service Trips, view and reset faults, initialize the Fault Reporter, or examine the
vehicle’s duty cycle in detail by viewing relevant histograms. Consult your dealer's certified V-MAC technician for additional
details. Availability of InfoMax fleet management software for selected DataMax analysis will be announced separately.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) come standard on all Mack vehicles and
can be optioned with or without an override switch. Different conditions
can be selected that cause the DRL to automatically activate. DRL can
be automatically turned-on when the parking brake is released, the
engine is running, or both. Only one of these choices may be selected.
Using DRL will illuminate the low beam headlamp bulbs at a slightly
reduced intensity. The DRL function will monitor high beams as well. If
the high beams are activated the DRL will be temporarily turned off until
high beam use ceases.

The optional DRL Override Switch Speed Threshold parameter controls how the DRL will operate. If the vehicle is above
this selected speed threshold (in MPH), depressing the DRL override switch located on the vehicle dash will flash the DRL.
This function will work as many times as the switch is depressed and is most commonly used as a courtesy flasher. If the vehi-
cle is below this selected speed threshold, depressing the dash override switch will temporarily turn the DRL off. The lights will
remain off for the time specified by the DRL Override Switch Off Time. If at any point during this time period vehicle speed
increases above the speed threshold, the DRL will automatically come back on and the timer will be canceled. Cycling the
ignition switch also resets the DRL override.

BENEFITS OF DRL
Mack offers the most comprehensive DRL controls in the industry, including the flexibility to activate DRL based on engine or
parking brake conditions, or to selectively override or flash the DRL. These exclusive Mack features are the result of direct cus-
tomer input. Daytime running lights offer additional safety when driving in low light conditions when the operator may not nor-
mally turn the headlights on. Having headlights on at all times makes the vehicle easier to spot in the bad weather, dusk or
shade, or when there is a glare. Daytime running lights help grab the attention of other vehicles a bit faster and can give the
extra split seconds needed to avoid an accident.

The ability to easily give other drivers a courtesy flash means safer conditions when driving as well. A courtesy flash can be
used to signal when it is safe to merge into another lane on the highway, or as a convenient way to say thank you. Turning DRL
off temporarily is a nice feature to have for slowly rolling through weigh stations, or when waiting in line to receive bill and weigh-
ing tickets. In some areas that deal with specialty loads (explosives, etc) it is a requirement to have headlights off at all times.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

The ability to change DRL parameters after purchase is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your
dealer's certified V-MAC technician for additional details. DRL auto-activation conditions, DRL Override Switch Speed
Threshold, and DRL Override Switch Off Time can all be changed later if desired.

DRIVER DISPLAY
 DRIVER DISPLAY
DRIVER DISPLAYS
Standard Display Basics:
Mack offers a selection of two driver display units to the customer including the stan-
dard dash unit and the optional cutting edge Co-Pilot Driver Information Display.
The standard Mack display is a center cluster mounted LCD display unit with
CoolBlue™ backlighting using three segmented display lines to communicate infor-
mation to the operator. Navigating the screen is achieved by using the reset button
located near the display. Features on the base level display also include a wrench
symbol that denotes when Maintenance Monitor items are due, and a Sweet Spot
indicator showing when the engine is operating in its optimum fuel efficiency zone.
The base display includes a standard 8 digit odometer, 2 resettable trip odometers, and a 7 digit engine hourmeter. A voltmeter
indicates system voltage, and a fault indicator notifies and allows the operator to view all faults (press and hold the reset
button). An ambient temperature indicator is also included on the standard display if the sensor has been specified.

Note: Certain optional hardware or software features are not available using the standard display (see below).

Co-Pilot Display:
Co-Pilot is an optional Driver Information Display that is
offered on all Mack Pinnacle and Granite vehicles. Co-
Pilot uses a nearly 5" diagonal LCD display screen that is
integrated directly into the Mack instrument cluster in a
central and high location for easy viewing. Co-Pilot
includes Mack’s unique CoolBlue™ lighting on the screen
that is easily read in the daylight, and even has special
settings for nighttime use. There are over 50 different
Co-Pilot display screens that keep the operator well
informed of vehicle activity and promote efficient opera-
tion. Some display screens are only viewable when the
vehicle is stationary, while other areas are available at all
times, promoting safety and ease of use.

Co-Pilot has been designed for extremely simple operation, and requires only 3 right side steering column stalk mounted but-
tons. The operator uses the toggle switch at the end of the stalk to cursor up or down to select a menu item. The arrow but-
ton is used to enter or select an item, and the ESC button is used to escape and return to the previous screen. All Co-Pilot
items can easily be accessed by the driver from a Main Menu screen.

Moving Co-Pilot screens include Indicator Set bars at the top and bottom of each screen showing frequently used information.
Indicator Set information includes time, odometer reading, and ambient temperature at the top for the screen. At the bottom
of the screen is displayed the Sweet Spot indicator, vehicle system voltage, DataMax Vehicle Overspeed status and Qualified
Idle timer status (see DataMax section). If equipped with an automated manual transmission, the current gear is also displayed.
If a message is received via an onboard wireless communication system, a message indicator envelope is also displayed.

CO-PILOT
Features:

Theft Deterrence Features: If enabled, a Co-Pilot security feature allows the fleet owner to require a 3 digit password
be entered by the driver before operating the vehicle. Passwords can be set up for full performance access, limited power
access (technician), or a special theft mode, which allows the vehicle to travel only a limited time or distance. Theft
Deterrence parameters must be activated by the customer or dealer using VCADS.

®
24
 DRIVER DISPLAY
Fuel Economy Features: View instantaneous and trip fuel economy for all available trips on an easy to read bar-graph
type display. For those customers using the Fuel Economy Incentive program, Co-Pilot displays both reward and
penalty targets, VSL bonus status, and current look-back MPG.
Digital Gauge Features: Digital instrumentation includes a large, easy to read
speedometer, load and throttle indicators, plus digital versions of most of the clus-
ter analog gauges. Many customers choose to use the digital speedometer
while driving for precise vehicle speed control.
Trip Information: Co-Pilot displays trip information on the LOV, Driver Trips A &
B, all 12 Fleet Trips, as well as Periodic Trips (upcoming release). Typical infor-
mation includes total trip hours, miles, or fuel consumed, or time/percent of time
spent in various operating modes, such as driving, cruising, idling or in PTO.

Fleet Management Features: For customers using Fleet Trips (see DataMax section), provisions for managing the 12
individual trips is included. The driver may assign his/her ID to
each trip, move to the next Fleet Trip, or assign a Bill-Of-Lading
(BOL) number. This data is intended to be uploaded at a later
time through wired or wireless methods for use by InfoMax Fleet
Management software.
Fleet Management via Driver Display, allows the driver to per-
form the Fleet Management Features, such as advancing to the
next Fleet Trip, adding a driver ID or Bill of Material (BOM).
Maintenance Features: Included with every Co-Pilot, GuardDog alerts the driver when
routine maintenance items are due. This includes engine oil and wiper fluid levels, air and fuel filter restriction, or Water-
In-Fuel (WIF) status. Co-Pilot can also be used to view and reset Maintenance Monitor items, with nearly 17 mainte-
nance items tracked, such as oil, oil filter, valve adjustment, belt checks or chassis lubrication intervals.
Diagnostic (Fault) Features: View active and logged faults in an easy to read
format, including fault source, description, occurrence, and frequency. Full
instrument cluster diagnostics are accessed through Co-Pilot, including gauge
and indicator lamp tests.
Display Set-up Features: Co-Pilot is fully adaptable to customer selectable lan-
guage (English, French, Spanish) and display value units. Use the set-up menu
to change time and date, or to modify screen brightness and contrast. A special
feature allows the screen image to be reversed for night driving or to suit individ-
ual driver preferences. A blank screen feature allows Co-Pilot to be turned off,
even while driving, if found distracting by the operator. When a Co-Pilot alert is received,
the unit will automatically reactivate.

Programming:

Mack makes it easy to set Co-Pilot up to meet individual customer needs. The Co-Pilot Programming Access parameter
means Co-Pilot can either be ordered with Fleet or Owner-Operator Access. Owner-Operator Access settings essentially pro-
vide full access to all Co-Pilot features, while Fleet Access is designed with a typical fleet in mind.
Fleet Level Programming: If selected, the vehicle operator is able to view, but not reset any electronic faults. The oper-
ator is also not able to view or reset Maintenance Monitor. If so equipped, the operator will be permitted to view, but not
change any iTAS settings.
Owner-Operator Level Programming: If selected, the vehicle operator can both view and reset any electronic faults.
The operator can also view and reset any Maintenance Monitor items. If so equipped, the operator can view and change
all iTAS settings.
DEL Messages via Driver Display Activation allows the driver to view and select up to 8 in the Driver Event Log.

®

 DRIVER DISPLAY
CO-PILOT (CONTINUED)
These messages will then be time and date stamped and used as required by fleet managers to review driver perform-
ance or vehicle trip history status.
Alerts:
Mack believes an informed driver is a better driver, so Co-Pilot instantly alerts the driver when important engine or vehicle events
occur. These include pop-up notifications of engine protection events, when GuardDog routine maintenance items are due, or
when Starter Protection is activated. For driver convenience, Co-Pilot also assists in setting the Cruise Control Set Speed, or
if Idle Shutdown or Cooldown are activated.
Products Requiring Co-Pilot:
In addition to the items mentioned above, such as Theft Deterrence, GuardDog, or the Fuel Economy Incentive program, sev-
eral other available Mack products require the additional display, processing and memory capabilities of Co-Pilot. This includes
the Mack integrated sleeper Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) system, the Mack onboard wireless communication system (if driv-
er-to-web messaging is required), and iTAS (Integrated Temp-A-Start).

Benefits:
Ergonomics have been taken into careful consideration with Co-Pilot. Its highly visible display screen keeps the driver’s eyes
on the road, and the unique CoolBlue lighting looks great with the rest of the dash and is easy on the eyes, both day and night.
Co-Pilot is designed to give you exactly the information that you need, when you need it. The smart system knows when the
vehicle is moving or stopped, and provides exactly the right information in both instances.
Two great reasons for Co-Pilot include an unbeatable fault reading system and real-time fuel economy monitoring. Faults are
displayed in plain English, making them easy to diagnose and truly taking the mystery out of electronic faults. With the instan-
taneous fuel economy screen a driver can check their MPG on the fly and make changes in driving style to save fuel, helping
a driver to constantly better him/herself behind the wheel. Additionally, the precision of a digital speedometer has become a
very popular feature among many Co-Pilot users.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Additional information on Co-Pilot is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your dealer's certified V-MAC
technician for additional details. All Co-Pilot settings can easily be changed at a later date using VCADS if customer needs to
change, or for the purpose of resale. As new Co-Pilot features are added in the future, the Co-Pilot is reprogrammable and
upgradeable.

DISPLAY SWEET SPOT BASICS
All diesel engines have operating regions (certain speeds & loads) where they achieve their best fuel efficiency. Fuel efficien-
cy is generally expressed as BSFC, or brake specific fuel consumption. BSFC is the amount of fuel used to make 1 HP for 1
hour (lbs/bhp-hr), so a lower value is better. An engine’s BSFC characteristics are typically mapped as shown below.
The Best BSFC area shown in gray is what is commonly referred to as the engine’s Sweet Spot. The location and size of this
area is engine brand and model specific. As much as possible, engineers try to design the Sweet Spot into an area of the map
where the vehicle is frequently operated, such as near the recommended Cruise RPM line.
The gray area on the map shown below is the designated Sweet Spot for the V-MAC IV indicator lamp and DataMax data log-
ger. This zone represents an optimum combination of low BHP/low fueling rates (i.e. downhill or level grades) and a good
BSFC. When driven in this zone, the vehicle typically gets its best overall MPG. The Sweet Spot is tailored for each Mack
MP engine model, based on recommended Cruise RPM and the engine’s unique BSFC characteristics.

The Sweet Spot indicator lamp is included on vehicles equipped with both the standard or basic segmented driver display, as
well as the optional Co-Pilot Display. This lamp automatically activates when the engine is operated in the gray area shown
above. The designated icon is $$. The Sweet Spot indicator lamp can be disabled
using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Monitoring Sweet Spot can help the
operator develop more fuel efficient driving habits.
Sweet Spot operating time, distance, and fuel used are automatically logged in
DataMax for each trip type (LOV, Periodic, Fleet, Service, and Driver). This data
can be used to assess driver performance. For example, a company might provide
the driver with an incentive bonus if he/she can keep the Fleet Trip % Sweet Spot
(% of the total trip that the engine was running in the Sweet Spot area) time above
a designated level.

 DRIVER DISPLAY
BENEFITS OF ENGINE SWEET SPOT
The Engine Sweet Spot indicator lamp has been carefully engineered into all Mack vehicles, and comes standard with both the
standard segmented display, and optional Co-Pilot driver information display. The Engine Sweet Spot indicator lamp is an easy
and effective way to inform the driver when they are operating their vehicle at peak efficiency. At-a-glance performance can be
assessed, and driving style can be altered (if needed) to increase fuel mileage. Over time, this can become a valuable tool in
establishing good driving habits, or in training an inexperienced driver. This feature can even help the operator earn extra recog-
nition or rewards from his/her company if they link time in Engine Sweet Spot to driver off-board incentives.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

The ability to disable the Engine Sweet Spot indicator lamp is available using VCADS PC Service Support software. Turning
off this feature is not generally recommended, and will likely result in reduced fuel economy. Consult your dealer’s certified
V-MAC technician for additional details.

 ELECTRONIC
HAND THROTTLE
 ELECTRONIC HAND THROTTLE (EHT)
EHT BASICS
The Electronic Hand Throttle (EHT) is used to provide engine speed control primarily while the vehicle is stationary and without a
Power Take Off (PTO) activated. Typically the EHT is used to shorten engine warmup time by elevating engine RPM, or in certain
specialty vocational applications. The EHT is fully programmable; including variable and single speed set modes, customized ramp
rates, operating RPM range controls, EHT vehicle speed limits, among many other features. The EHT functions in the same way as
most PTO's, and is sometimes referred to as PTO 0.

There are two basic control modes for the EHT. Either the EHT can be set-up to allow the driver to specify the EHT operating speeds,
or the EHT can be set-up to operate at a single speed control (SSC) mode. Single speed controls are used when the EHT device is
designed to operate at a fixed or constant engine speed.

EHT controls use the same SPD CTL, Res/Accel, and Set/Decel dash switches that normally operate the Cruise Control (CC) and
PTO functions. Under normal operation (default conditions), the EHT will be engaged when the clutch and service brake pedal are
released, the parking brake is set, and the SPD CTL switch in the ON position. All PTO switches should be set to OFF and engine
RPM must be within the valid programmed range. If equipped with an automatic transmission, the vehicle must be placed in neutral
for EHT operation. If these conditions are not met, the EHT speed controls will not function. Violating any of these conditions dur-
ing operation will constitute a canceling, or dropout, of the EHT.

EHT Engine Set Speeds: The EHT is designed to work within a specified engine operating range. This range is defined by the EHT
Min Engine Set Speed and the EHT Max Engine Set Speed. If the engine is placed within this RPM range using the throttle pedal
and the SPD CTL switch is ON, the current engine speed will be set by pressing the RES/ACCEL-SET/DECEL button. If at any time
the EHT is active and engine RPM rises above or falls below these levels, the EHT will temporarily cancel, or dropout. EHT opera-
tion may be restored using the Res/Accel switch, given that engine RPMs have returned to within the set speed range.

EHT Vehicle Speed Settings: Although the EHT is normally associated with a stationary vehicle, it can also be programmed to oper-
ate at very low vehicle speeds. Since PTO, EHT and CC all share the same dash controls, an EHT Vehicle Speed Range Limit must
be set to determine the vehicle MPH in which EHT settings apply. Above this setting the dash switches will not control the EHT set-
tings. Accordingly, the Vehicle Speed Range Limit must always be selected to be lower than the CC Min Set Speed (see CC
Section). PTO and EHT controls differ in that during EHT operation no PTO switch should be activated (only the SPD CTL switch).

EHT Single Speed Control: A Single Speed Control (SSC) can be specified for EHT operation. For example, during engine warmup
the driver may want to go to a pre-defined engine speed, such as 1200 RPM. If the EHT Single Speed Control Activation is select-
ed, the engine RPM will automatically increase and hold at the customer selected EHT SSC Set Speed, assuming the SPD CTL switch
is on and the Res/Accel switch is depressed. Unlike normal PTO SSC, all inputs from the dash switches and accelerator pedal will
NOT be ignored. Just as with variable speed EHT operation, the EHT SSC Set Speed must be between the Min and Max Engine
Set Speeds.

Jump to Min: It is possible to select the EHT Jump to Min Set Speed feature for the EHT. This feature avoids the need to manu-
ally place the engine RPM within the EHT operating RPM range with the throttle or Res/Accel switch. With the SPD CTL switch on,
simply touch the Accel/Decel switch and the engine will automatically jump to the EHT Min Engine Set Speed. If the EHT is pro-
grammed for SSC, then the engine will automatically jump to the EHT SSC Set Speed.

EHT Ramp Rate: Controls the rate at which the engine speed increase when the Res/Accel switch is pressed and held. If at any
time the Res/Accel or Set/Decel switch is pressed and held, engine RPM will increase/decrease respectively at the programmed
EHT Ramp Rate.

BENEFITS OF EHT CONTROL

This convenient feature is most often used during warmup or any application where a constant engine speed needs to be held over a
period of time without a PTO or PTO switch tie-in to V-MAC. In particular applications where the same engine speed is used every
time, the SSC feature allows a fixed RPM to be programmed for ease of operation. Mack EHT controls are highly customizable, using
both MackTraq and VCADS, to ensure the controls are set up exactly the way the customer demands

or neutral switch inputs from the transmission. Additionally, a temporary drop-out can be specified. For example, if the clutch is
depressed, the EHT speed control will deactivate, but will automatically return to previous settings when the clutch is released.
• Bump Up/Down RPM: Often a driver cannot precisely set the EHT operating speed with the throttle or dash switches. This fea-
ture allows a driver to bump the set speed up or down a preprogrammed amount with each touch of the Res/Accel or Set/Decel
switch. The default setting is 50 RPM, and is programmable up to 250 RPM per touch.
• Hold to Nearest RPM: Similarly, the EHT can be set to automatically lock-in at the nearest round number engine RPM. For
example, the 100 RPM default setting means an EHT set to 1660 RPM by the driver will automatically set itself to 1700 RPM.
• AutoSet: Automatically allows a EHT using the SSC option to go to its set speed once the SPD CTL switch is activated, with no
need to press the Res/Accel or Set/Decel switches.

 ENGINE
PROTECTION
 ENGINE PROTECTION
ENGINE PROTECTION BASICS
Engine Protection is a comprehensive system monitoring all major engine
functions. This feature is used to protect the vehicle’s engine if any criti-
cal malfunctions occur during operation. If a problem is detected, the
operator will be alerted via the red and/or yellow indicator lamp, and in
some cases an audible alarm. Torque derates will occur if readings contin-
ue in the unsafe range. If the shutdown feature has been enabled by the cus-
tomer and unsafe readings continue after torque derates, the engine will
be forced to idle and shutdown automatically once vehicle speed
drops to below approximately 2 MPH. If at any time during the
warning period conditions return to normal readings, ordinary
engine operation will be restored.
After a shutdown has occurred, the engine can be restarted
after 7 seconds if the key has been placed in the OFF position.
If any engine protection reading is still abnormal, the engine pro-
tection process will occur again after 30 seconds. This gives the
operator ample time to move the vehicle away from an unsafe situa-
tion (torque derates still apply, only shutdown is delayed 30 seconds).
All Engine Protection faults are logged in V-MAC IV’s fault log.
Note: A 100% torque derate is equivalent to approximately a 50% loss in engine
torque. At no time will torque be reduced by more than half of its normal rating.
Example: If an engine is rated at 1600 lb/ft of torque and a 100% torque derate is required due to unsafe engine conditions,
derated torque value will be 800 lb/ft.
Oil Pressure: Because it takes a small amount of time to build up oil pressure, there will be a 10 second delay when the the
engine is started before any oil pressure readings are performed. The EMS stores values that constitute the lowest thresh-
old of what is considered normal oil pressure at all engine RPMs. If at any time readings drop below these levels for more
than 3 seconds, a red warning lamp will be lit and a 100% derate is performed. If the EP Oil Pressure Shutdown feature is
enabled and low oil pressure continues for 10 seconds, the engine is forced to idle and will be shutdown when vehicle speed
drops to less than 2 MPH.
Oil Temperature: If oil temperatures increase to above 264°F a 10% torque derate will initially occur. At 270°F a full 100%
torque derate takes place. If oil temperature continues to rise above 275°F and the EP Oil Temp Shutdown feature is
enabled, a forced idle occurs and the engine will be shutdown once vehicle speed decreases to less than 2 MPH. A yellow
warning lamp will notify the driver of high oil temperatures at 264°F; a red lamp is lit at 268°F. Both lamps will turn off when
oil temperature has decreased to 260°F or below.
Coolant Temperature: A torque derate will occur once coolant temperature reaches 224°F of approximately 15%. Torque
will remain at this level until coolant temperature reaches 225°F at which time torque will be derated by 30%. If coolant tem-
perature crests 227°F then a full 100% derate will occur. If the EP Coolant Temp Shutdown is enabled, temperatures of
228°F or higher will incur a forced idle and the engine will be shutdown once vehicle speed has been reduced to less than 2
MPH. A yellow warning lamp will be lit at 225°F and a red warning lamp at 227°F. Both lamps will be turned off if coolant
temperatures decrease below 221°F.
Coolant Level: If the coolant level switch indicates that coolant has been low for 4.5 seconds, a red lamp will be lit and a 10%
torque derate will occur. If the coolant level continues to be low for 10 seconds or more, and the EP Coolant Level Shutdown
feature is enabled, the engine is forced to idle and will be shutdown when vehicle speed drops below 2 MPH.
Transmission Oil Temperature: If transmission oil temperature is greater than 309°F for 3 seconds a yellow warning lamp
will be lit. If temperatures continue to rise above 320°F a red warning lamp activates. Torque derates will begin at 309°F
and will continue up to a 100% derate at 324°F. If the EP Oil Temp Shutdown feature is enabled, the engine will be forced
to idle once transmission oil temperatures reach 324°F for 10 seconds. The engine will be shutdown once vehicle speed
drops below 2 MPH. Slightly different thresholds are used if equipped with an Allison automatic transmission.

BENEFITS OF ENGINE PROTECTION

Engine Protection features offer the customer built-in safeguards, assuring that the engine will be derated to a safe level if any
serious problems arise. The torque derates and warning periods ensure that if needed, the operator will have plenty of time to
pull the vehicle off the road to a safe location. The warnings let the operator know that a serious problem has occurred, and
that if possible, the vehicle should be shut off before the warnings expire. Fleet owners have the assurance that their trucks
will be treated properly when a problem occurs, even if the owner cannot be present with the driver.

The shutdown feature is an option that offers extra protection for the vehicle.The Engine Protection shutdown setting defaults in
MackTraq are the most common customer selected settings.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Additional information on Engine Protection is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your dealer's cer-
tified V-MAC technician for additional details. Examples include the ability to spec an additional protection setting based on
Exhaust Temperature. If furnished, the engine will be derated and shutdown if high exhaust temperatures occur further pro-
tecting the engine from combustion variations. A High Axle-Temperature warning system may also be specified.

FAN CONTROL
 FAN CONTROL
FAN CONTROL BASICS
Mack offers two main fan drives to the customer, including both an On/Off and Electronic Viscous. Custom V-MAC IV fan con-
trol using an override switch are only available for On/Off fan drives. The On/Off fan drive over-
ride switch is an available option on Mack conventional vehicles.

During normal operation, the cooling fan is automatically activated by the Engine
Management System (EMS) based on engine coolant temperature, engine intake man-
ifold air temperature, and other internal parameters, to prevent the engine
from overheating. Use of the cooling fan also occurs when the air condi-
tioning high pressure switch becomes active. Using the electronically con-
trolled viscous fan drive, different fan speeds are automatically utilized
depending on the operating conditions. Fan use is limited to conserve fuel
and is engaged on an as needed basis to maintain normal engine operat-
ing temperatures and ensure durability.

Note: In all V-MAC IV On-Off optional fan overrides, maintaining normal

engines temperatures will take precedence and supersede any operator
inputs. To prevent damage, the fan will only allow manual engagement when the engine is
operating within acceptable limits, unless an overheating event is detected.

V-MAC IV offers the most sophisticated and flexible fan controls in the industry, with several override options available for On/Off
fan drives equipped with an override switch. The Allow Fan Override When Moving feature permits the fan to be manually
engaged via the cab switch when the vehicle is moving. The cooling fan will remain on for the time period specified by the Fan
Override Time When Moving feature. The Allow Fan Override When Parked feature allows the fan to be overridden and
locked in the on position when parked. There is no override timer associated with this option; rather the cooling fan will remain
on as long as the switch is depressed. If at any time engine speed exceeds 2100 RPM, the fan will be automatically disen-
gaged to prevent fan damage. Pressing the override switch again, cycling the ignition, or any vehicle movement will disengage
the fan override input.

Air Conditioning Override Time controls how long the cooling fan will remain on after the air conditioning pressure switch stops
requesting the fan drive to be on. This prevents excessive fan cycling when parked. This override will only function when the
vehicle is stopped. If the AC Override Time is set to zero, the cooling fan will operate normally on the command of the air con-
ditioning pressure switch.

If furnished, Fan Activation with PTO locks the cooling fan in the ON position as long as any PTO is active. The cooling fan
will remain on until the PTO is deactivated. If any engine speed thresholds are exceeded due to PTO use, the override will be
canceled until engine thresholds return to within the normal range, unless the fan is needed to manage engine temperature.

FUEL ECONOMY
INCENTIVE
 FUEL ECONOMY INCENTIVE
FUEL ECONOMY INCENTIVE
If selected, the Fuel Economy Incentive (FEI) program used in conjunction with Co-Pilot, is designed to help ensure that fleet
customers optimize fuel economy. If selected, the FEI feature provides an increase or decrease in the customer Vehicle Limiting
Speed (VLS) depending on how efficiently the vehicle is operated. There are four choices that can be optioned under Fuel
Economy Incentive:
1. No Incentive: There is no change in VLS based on fuel efficiency.
2. Penalty Mode: There is a temporary decrease in VLS based on fuel efficiency.
3. Reward Mode: There is a temporary increase in VLS based on fuel efficiency.
4. Penalty & Reward Mode: There is a temporary decrease or increase
in VLS based on fuel efficiency.
Fuel economy is calculated automatically by the Engine Management
System (EMS) over an initial distance to ensure that an accurate efficiency
measurement is made. This distance is factory set to 50 miles and no VLS
adjustments occur until the vehicle has traveled this FEI Distance
Calculation Interval. If desired the owner can change the distance calcu-
lation interval to suit individual needs. The vehicles running MPG calculation
used in the FEI program is then continually re-computed and updated over
this distance interval during vehicle operation.
An acceptable fuel economy range should be chosen by the customer to effectively use the Fuel Economy Incentive. The cus-
tomer must first use the Fuel Economy Incentive Mode Selection to determine if the driver is to use the Fuel Incentive
Program and if it is to be used in Penalty, Reward, or both modes. Note: This requires setting two parameters in VCADS.
The FEI Penalty Target Fuel Economy value should be set by the customer as the lower MPG range that is desired in all appli-
cations. The FEI Penalty Vehicle Speed is set as the amount (in MPH) that the vehicle’s VLS will be decreased if average
MPG drops below the FEI Penalty Target Fuel Economy value. If the vehicle is in penalty mode and calculated efficiency
rises above the penalty target fuel economy value, VLS will revert to its normal value.
The FEI Reward Target Fuel Economy value should be set by the customer as the MPG that they would like to achieve. The
FEI Reward Vehicle Speed Increase is set as the amount (in MPH) that the vehicle’s VLS will be increased if average MPG is
above the FEI Reward Target Fuel Economy value. If the vehicle is in reward mode and calculated efficiency falls below the
reward target fuel economy, VLS will revert to its normal value.
If the vehicle is equipped with a Co-Pilot driver display, the target fuel economy values for both penalty (P) and bonus (B) modes
plus the average and instantaneous fuel economy will be shown on the Co-Pilot fuel economy screen. Although additional trip
modes may be displayed on the Co-Pilot fuel economy screen, the FEI will remain in effect until disabled using VCADS.

BENEFITS OF FUEL ECONOMY INCENTIVE

Fuel economy incentive allows for the fleet owner to better control the fuel economy that their vehicles achieve. Drivers who
operate the vehicle efficiently will be rewarded by a higher VLS, which is desirable to most drivers. In theory, the operator will
work hard to keep the vehicle operating efficiently so that they will continue to be rewarded. Drivers who operate the vehicle
inefficiently will be penalized by a lower VLS. A lower VLS will automatically help improve fuel economy. Additionally, the oper-
ator will work harder to raise vehicle efficiency so that they too can be rewarded instead or continuing to be penalized. Mack
Trucks is the only manufacturer who offers both a reward and penalty based on fuel economy (MPG). This forces inefficient
drivers into the acceptable range. The FEI feature improves driver efficiency by promoting vehicle operation within a MPG range
acceptable to the owner or fleet manager.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

The ability to change Fuel Economy Incentive parameters after purchase is available using VCADS PC Service Support
Software. Consult your dealer's certified V-MAC technician for additional details. Since load, driving conditions, and weather
can all affect fuel economy, FEI parameters are flexible to handle these situations. VCADS can be used to integrate addition-
al parameters besides MPG into the FEI program. FEI can be set-up to respond to Vehicle Qualified Idle % Time or Sweet
Spot % Time.

 GOVERNOR SETTINGS
GOVERNOR SETTINGS BASICS
V-MAC IV allows the customer to custom program governor type and high idle speed in certain gears. Either a standard
Min/Max or an All-Speed governor can be selected. The governor controls the way the engine responds to throttle input. A
Min/Max governor delivers engine power in proportion to throttle position, just like a typical automobile governor. An All-Speed
governor sets engine speed in proportion to throttle position, allowing power to go up/down across varying terrain while vehicle
speed and throttle position remain relatively constant. This type of governor is used on mechanically governed engines and
finds limited use in V-MAC vocational applications. An All-Speed governor is not available for purchase on vehicles equipped
with Allison transmissions.

Useable Engine Power Band: Except during starts, if the

vehicle is moving the engine should normally be operated
within this speed range, between the Peak Torque and
Governed Speed RPMs, unless the engine high idle has been
reduced in upper gears (see below).

MIN/MAX GOVERNOR

A Min/Max Governor is the most common governor type found in both the automotive and trucking industry. With a Min/Max,
horsepower delivered is roughly proportional to the amount of throttle applied, so it feels right while driving. Apply the throttle to
accelerate, climb a grade, or otherwise increase engine power output. A Min/Max Governor is standard on all Mack vehicles.

ALL-SPEED GOVERNOR
An All-Speed Governor sets an engine speed (RPM) that is roughly proportional to throttle application. At any given speed-
throttle position, power is allowed to go up or down, depending on the need. Older Mack mechanical governors were All-Speed.
Some vocational customers still prefer an All-Speed since the vehicle can traverse a varying terrain with very little throttle pedal
movement. An All-Speed Governor can be selected on all Mack engines through MackTraq or VCADS PC Service Support
Software.

ENGINE HIGH IDLE

Engine power normally begins to cut-out at about 50 RPM above rated speed. Power is reduced linearly up to the Engine High
Idle speed, which is the maximum no-load (0 BHP output) governed speed. It is essentially the same engine RPM obtained in
neutral with the accelerator pedal fully depressed and the engine fully warmed. The normal High Idle setting for all Mack
engines is 2100 RPM.

V-MAC IV allows the operator to specify a lower Engine High Idle Speed in Upper Gears for improved fuel efficiency by
restricting engine operation in higher RPMs. If this feature is enabled and lower than the normal high idle speed, high idle will
be reduced to the customer selected RPM in all higher gears that have a numerically lower ratio than 1.5.

Note: Reducing Engine High Idle Speed in Upper Gears can limit overall engine speed range and in particular powertrains
result in a vehicle that is more likely to be gear bound on certain grades. Consequently, this feature is not recommended for
use with 5,6,7, or 8 speed transmissions, automatic transmissions, or automated manual transmissions. Typical applications
include 13 and 18 speed manual transmissions.

BENEFITS OF GOVERNOR SETTINGS

Mack uses a Min/Max governor as its default selection. Most customers feel more comfortable with the familiar automotive
style arrangement, and it offers the best performance in the most situations. Depending on the application, there can be ben-
efits to All Speed Governors as well. Generally Min/Max governors offer better tracking between the amount of throttle and
engine torque output. Min/Max Governors are better suited for normal driving situations, as the throttle response is intuitive.
All-speed governors generally provide excellent tracking between throttle amount and engine speed. All-speed governors are
better suited for maintaining a constant vehicle speed over a varying terrain with minimal throttle input.

Setting a lower High Idle Speed in Upper Gears can improve MPG by reducing engine operation in inefficient RPM ranges, and
is recommended primarily for 13-18 speed transmissions. Fuel is saved without sacrificing the larger range of the lower gears
that the operator needs to maintain speed during low-speed shifting or steep grades. This creates a dual advantage situation
for the operator. VLS needs to fall below governor (upper gear high idle) cut-in for effective operation.

Additional information on Governor Settings is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your dealer's
certified V-MAC technician for additional details. For example, specific/different gear ratios can be selected, causing Engine
High Idle in Upper Gears to activate at a different vehicle speed. Also, a Fuel Calibration Percent parameter can be adjust-
ed in the event that MPG readings displayed on Co-Pilot or logged in DataMax to not consistently match real world pump-
odometer MPG measurements.

IDLE SETTINGS
 IDLE SETTINGS
LOW IDLE

Low Idle is the engine RPM at which the engine operates when there is no throttle, EHT, PTO, or other external inputs. All
Mack MP engines come standard with a default low idle set speed of 650 RPM. Low idle can be set prior to delivery (using
MackTraq) or reset/adjusted later manually within the range of 600-700 RPM using the Engine Low Idle Set Speed
parameter. If the owner wishes to allow the driver to set low idle speed himself, then the Driver Low Idle Adjust feature must
be enabled.

To enter into manual adjustment mode using cab switches, the vehicle must be stopped, engine must be running, parking brake
set, service brake released, and accelerator pedal must not be pressed. Start by cycling the CC ON/OFF switch three times
(starting in the OFF position) within two seconds, ending in the ON position. The Engine Management System (EMS) will auto-
matically drop to minimum idle speed or 600 RPM at this point. The CC Resume/Accelerate switch is used to increase low idle
in 25 RPM increments up to its maximum set point. Low idle can be decreased back to the minimum set point in the same
fashion using the CC Set/Decelerate switch. Once the desired low idle speed is reached, the setting can be saved and idle
adjustment mode can be exited by either depressing the service brake or clutch pedal. To exit without saving and revert to the
last saved (or default) low idle setting, disengage the parking brake or turn the key switch off.

SMART IDLE

If Smart Idle Feature Activation is furnished and enabled, the Vehicle Electronic Control Unit (VECU) will monitor electrical
system voltage to ensure the batteries are operating at normal voltage levels. If battery voltage drops below a programmed
level, a message will be sent to the EMS to ramp up engine speed to an OEM programmed threshold of 1100 RPM in order to
increase alternator output. The driver will be alerted via a pop-up message if equipped with Co-Pilot. For the vehicle to enter
into Smart Idle mode, several conditions must be met: the engine must be running, parking brake must be applied, and no other
engine or PTO speed controls may be active. If the vehicle is equipped with a non-clutch pedal automatic transmission, the
transmission must be in neutral for Smart Idle mode to be entered. Engine speed will remain at the elevated level until a Smart
Idle Elevated Idle RPM Time expires or any of the above conditions change state. If the ignition is turned off, Smart Idle will
be canceled and the monitoring process will begin again the next time the engine is started. The idle shutdown feature will
take precedence over Smart Idle if both options are enabled.

 IDLE SETTINGS
BENEFITS OF IDLE SETTINGS

Normally, a low idle speed of 650 RPM works well for most applications. In some cases customers like to adjust it primarily to
achieve a smoother idle, conserve fuel, or to provide enough heat to keep the cab or sleeper warm when idling in colder cli-
mates. Allowing the driver to adjust idle from within the cab is a convenient feature that few competitors offer.

Smart Idle is primarily used for sleeper operation when the driver is using more power than the alternator produces when idling.
After an extended period of time this can result in low battery voltage and potential restarting issues. Most alternators will sig-
nificantly increase current and power output when running even slightly above low idle speed. Smart Idle automatically keeps
this from occurring. The Smart Idle Elevated Idle Time feature allows the operator to tailor this idle time to meet his/her indi-
vidual needs, while preventing extended higher RPM idling in the event of an alternator malfunction.

As with V-MAC IV programable parameters, ability to change Idle Settings parameters after purchase is also available using
VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your dealer's certified V-MAC technician for additional details.

IDLE SHUTDOWN
IDLE COOLDOWN
 IDLE SHUTDOWN/IDLE COOLDOWN
IDLE SHUTDOWN BASICS
If the Idle Shutdown Feature Activation is furnished, under normal key-on idling conditions, the engine can be programmed
to shutdown after a predetermined period of time defined by the Idle Shutdown Time parameter. For this feature to be active
the vehicle must be stationary and the engine must be warmed. The red shutdown lamp will illuminate on the instrument
cluster followed by an audible alarm alerting the driver that a shutdown is about to occur. These alerts will activate based on
the Idle Shutdown Warning Time settings. Depressing the service brake or the accelerator pedal at any time will automat-
ically reset the idle shutdown counter, indicating that the driver is still in the vehicle. If equipped with a sleeper, the idle shut-
down timer can also be reset by pressing the idle shutdown override switch at any time.

Idle shutdown can also be adapted to account for idling during the initial warmup period. An Idle Shutdown Warmup
Temperature threshold and Idle Shutdown Warmup Timer ensures that the engine is fully warmed before operation. The
normal idle shutdown timer will not begin until the temperature threshold has been met and the warmup timer has expired.
If the engine is already above the temperature threshold after starting, the warmup timer will be bypassed and the normal
idle shutdown timer will begin.

IDLE SHUTDOWN OVERRIDES

Several different override modes can also be enabled or disabled using customer programmable parameters. These will tem-
porarily override the idle shutdown timer under certain operating conditions. Overriding the idle shutdown feature or timer sim-
ply means idle shutdown will not occur when this feature is furnished. Overrides include use of any Power Take Offs (PTOs),
the Electronic Hand Throttle, or if the engine load is greater than 20%. The normal idle shutdown timer will restart once use of
any override option ceases. Idle shutdown override defaults settings, like all V-MAC IV programmable parameters, have been
carefully chosen to satisfy the needs of most customers.

IDLE SHUTDOWN SLEEPER MODE

There are two types of V-MAC IV sleeper idle shutdown
override modes that can be enabled using customer pro-
grammable parameters. These include a standard Idle
Shutdown Override-Sleeper Mode, and an Idle
Shutdown Override-Sleeper Mode with Ambient
Temperature. An idle shutdown override switch is stan-
dard on all vehicles equipped with a sleeper.

If the Idle Shutdown Override Sleeper Mode has been

furnished, the shutdown timer alert has initiated, and the
operator wishes to enter in sleeper mode override, he must
press the override switch, or depress the throttle or brake
pedal to freeze the idle shutdown timer. The timer resets
and idle shutdown will remain suspended until the vehicle
has moved or the ignition is cycled.

To enter the Idle Shutdown Override-Sleeper Mode with

Ambient Temperature Sensing, simply press the override switch during the idle shutdown warning period. The timer will
remain suspended (no shutdown) until ambient sleeper temperatures have reached a level between the minimum and maxi-
mum thresholds. These thresholds are customer programmable and represent the comfortable temperature range of the
sleeper. Once sleeper ambient temperature has reached a level within this range, the normal idle shutdown sequence will
begin. If ambient temperatures moved outside of this range, idle shutdown will not occur, allowing the sleeper to be properly
warmed or cooled. Moving the vehicle or cycling the ignition key will reset the Idle Shutdown Override-Sleeper Mode.

 IDLE SHUTDOWN/IDLE COOLDOWN
IDLE COOLDOWN
The Idle Cooldown Feature Activation allows the engine to properly idle and cooldown after hard use. During this process,
if the ignition has been turned off and/or the key removed, the engine will continue to idle until engine exhaust temperatures
have a sufficient chance to decrease to acceptable levels. Temperature levels are automatically monitored until a certain level
is reached or a timer has expired. At this time the engine will automatically shut off and the electrical system will power down.
During the time when the idle cooldown mode is active, engine operation will be limited, as accelerator commands and all
PTO/EHT controls will be inhibited.
If an override or disable idle cooldown feature is desired during the cooldown period, three options are available. By cycling
the ignition key-switch twice, releasing the parking brake, or by pressing the momentary shutdown override switch, (sleeper
models) the cooldown sequence will cease and the engine will immediately turn off. Normal start-up procedures are in effect
after that point.

Idle Cooldown Furnishing the Idle Cooldown feature allows for proper cool-

Feature Activation cause normal key on/off operation.

BENEFITS OF IDLE SHUTDOWN/ IDLE COOLDOWN:

By programming the engine to automatically shutdown after a predetermined interval of driver inactivity, fuel is saved by elimi-
nating excess idling. Average fuel consumption is approximately .5 gal/hour at 650RPM and 1.0 gal/hour at 1000RPM. By sim-
ply reducing idling time from 50% to 25% of total driving time, up to 5% improvement in MPG can be realized.The idle shut-
down warmup feature conveniently allows the idle shutdown timer to be extended during the warmup period, helping to reduce
nuisance shutdowns. Idle shutdown also allows for greater and easier compliance with selected state anti-idling regulations,
and can be custom tailored to the laws within the state of operation.
If equipped with a sleeper, a driver may have the need to idle for extended periods of time to maintain comfortable temperature
levels. Unless the vehicle is equipped with other anti-idle devices, or state regulations forbid idling, the Idle Shutdown
Override-Sleeper Mode can be used for extended idling. In areas of mild climate, the driver can specify normal idle shutdown
to occur once comfortable sleeper temperatures have been met, or specify no sleeper shutdown override settings at all, for max-
imum fuel savings. In harsh climates where driver comfort is a higher priority, sleeper mode override settings can be locked
permanently in place for comfortable sleeper temperatures all night long.
For optimum turbocharger exhaust valve life, an engine should be allowed to idle for several minutes immediately following hard
operation to reduce internal carbon buildup. The Idle Cooldown feature will allow the engine to idle and cooldown if the truck
has been keyed off before the engine has fully cooled. Idle Cooldown will function even if the engine is not equipped with a
pyrometer, based an internal V-MAC IV timer.
As with all V-MAC IV parameters, the Idle Shutdown feature, timers, temperatures, and override settings are defaulted or pre-
set to the most frequently used customer settings.

vals. The operator is then alerted through
the driver display and the service technician
is notified through the VCADS service tool Maintenance Monitor Screen
when maintenance is due. Routine maintenance
items include engine oil and filters, belts, chassis lubes, customer defined items, and many
others. Maintenance intervals can be expressed in terms of vehicle distance traveled, vehi-
cle time, or engine hours. Use the Maintenance Monitor Feature Activation parameter to
initiate this function.

Alerts can be customized to meet customer preferences in

several ways. Maintenance Due Warning Percent
lets the owner or driver choose the percentage of the
maintenance intervals in which notification is given.
For example, choosing a warning percent of 100%, will
alert the operator exactly when maintenance becomes
due. Choosing below 100% will give an early warning, Example of
choosing above 100% will notify after maintenance is Air Filter Alert
due (not recommended).

Different default maintenance intervals specified by Mack are available depending on whether the vehicle is used for primarily highway
or vocational applications by using the Maintenance Monitor OEM Default Intervals parameter. Each selection is tailored to best fit
that particular application. The customer can choose the Mack Highway or Vocational recommended default intervals in MackTraq, or
choose to select their own custom intervals using VCADS at a later date. Of the 17 routine maintenance items that are monitored, 4
of them are customer definable, in which the customer can define the specific maintenance item, interval, and Maintenance Due
Warning Percent.

Both the base level and uplevel Co-Pilot displays include the blue wrench symbol, which illuminates when any Maintenance Monitor
item is due. If equipped with a Co-Pilot driver display with the Owner-Operator (see Co-Pilot section) programming package,
Maintenance Monitor items can be both viewed and reset via the Maintenance menu. A Co-Pilot pop-up message notifies the driver
when a maintenance item first becomes due. After proper service has been performed, all maintenance reminders can be reset via
Co-Pilot or VCADS.

Note: Maintenance Monitor is not typically used by fleet operations, as most work on their own scheduled maintenance intervals.
Maintenance Monitor is typically geared toward the owner/operator. Any Maintenance Monitor item (see chart) can be individually

GuardDog is the industry’s first active routine maintenance monitoring system. Active means that maintenance status is
based on actual sensor readings, rather than fixed, predetermined intervals. GuardDog alerts the driver through the Co-Pilot
display and logs into DataMax whenever routine maintenance is required on the following items:

• Engine oil level (low or high)

• Engine coolant level (low)
• Fuel level (low)
• Water in fuel (OK/Not OK)
• Fuel filter restriction (high)
• Windshield washer fluid level (low)
• Air filter restriction (high)

GUARDDOG CO-PILOT DISPLAY

All vehicles equipped with the Co-Pilot display include GuardDog. Upon power-up, the
Co-Pilot will automatically display ‘ACQUIRING DATA’ (shown). If any GuardDog
items require maintenance, the same screen will appear along with a message indi-
cating “Maintenance Items Due”.

Note: The oil level indicator requires 15-20 sec with the key on and the engine off to
provide a valid reading. If the engine is started within that period, Co-Pilot will alert
the driver and revert back to its last valid reading.

If maintenance is required during normal vehicle operation, an interrupt screen will

appear along with an audible warning. The specific maintenance item will display on
the Co-Pilot display screen until acknowledged by the driver using the ENTER button.
There is no interrupt for oil level (requires engine be off) or for coolant level (part of engine
protection).

At any point the driver may view GuardDog item status using the Co-Pilot menu access
screens. GuardDog Status (shown) is a sub-menu item within the Maintenance Menu that
displays a list of GuardDog items with their corresponding conditions shown as low, check,
or OK.

GuardDog status is automatically logged in the DataMax Service & Maintenance Log and can be viewed by a service techni-
cian using VCADS PC Service Support Software. All GuardDog items are automatically reset (filter is replaced, oil added, etc.)

 MAINTENANCE MONITOR
BENEFITS OF MAINTENANCE MONITOR/GUARDDOG
Maintenance Monitor tends to find the most use by owner operators who look after their own truck’s routine service items. It
gives them the convenience to set up a maintenance schedule that works for their own truck and its unique operating condi-
tions. Maintenance is shown exactly when it is due, never early or late, unless preferred by the owner. By knowing when to
expect routine service, the owner-operator can plan working schedules, stops, downtime, or budget their income accordingly.
No extra service or support tools are needed for normal operation, making Mack’s Maintenance Monitor one of the simplest and
most efficient maintenance programs in the market today.

GuardDog reduces or eliminates the driver’s need to physically check routine maintenance items, reducing the driver’s work
load, reducing stress, and improving driver retention. GuardDog can reduce overall maintenance costs, by reducing pre-trip
inspection time, reducing the likelihood of overlooked maintenance, from replacing components too early, or running past their
intended life and damaging other components.

PTO CONTROL
 PTO CONTROL
PTO BASICS
With roots firmly planted in the vocational market, Mack provides the most
comprehensive electronic engine speed controls available today. These
controls include the capability to independently control up to 4 Power
Take Offs (PTOs), including variable and single speed set modes, cus-
tomized ramp rates, operating MPH range controls, PTO vehicle speed
limits, and other features. MackTraq allows the customer to specify com-
monly used control settings on PTO1 & PTO2, to meet over 95% of voca-
tional needs. If additional PTOs are required, PTO3 and PTO4 can be
set-up using the VCADS PC Service Support Software. If more than one
PTO is in use at the same time, special rules may apply (see Want to Know
More section).

There are two basic control modes for each PTO. Either a PTO can be set-up
to allow the driver to specify the PTO operating speeds, or the PTO can be set-
up to operate at a single speed control (SSC) mode. Single speed controls are typically
used when a PTO device is designed to operate at a fixed or constant output speed. On vehi-
cles with multiple PTOs, a combination of variable speed and single speed controls may also be used.

The physical PTO activation switch may be mounted on the dash, center console, remotely, or on the PTO device itself. For
any PTO to operate using V-MAC IV controls, the vehicle must be wired such that the PTO switch activates both the PTO device
and one of the four PTO input pins on the Vehicle ECU. PTO controls use the same SPD CTL, Res/Accel, and Set/Decel dash
switches that normally operate the Cruise Control (CC). In all cases both the appropriate PTO switch and the main SPD CTL
switch must be activated in order for the PTO to operate. Specific interaction with the throttle pedal and Res/Accel, Set/Decel
switches will depend upon the specific PTO set-up programming, as described below.

Under normal operation, the PTO can be engaged when the clutch and service brake pedal are released, the parking brake is
set, and the SPD CTL switch in the ON position. If equipped with an automatic transmission, the vehicle must be placed in
neutral for PTO operation. If these conditions are not met, the PTO speed controls will not function.

PTO Engine Set Speeds: With the PTO and SPD CTL switches on, the accelerator pedal or Res/Accel switch are used by the
driver to set engine RPM in a range above the PTO Min Engine Set Speed and below the PTO Max Engine Set Speed param-
eters. It is possible to specify a different PTO Min Engine Set Speed for each PTO. PTO use will not be permitted if engine
RPM is below this level. Conversely, a PTO Max Engine Set Speed limits PTO operation to this upper engine set RPM. If at
any time a PTO is active and engine RPM rises above or falls below these levels, the PTO will temporarily cancel, or dropout.
PTO operation may be restored using the Res/Accel switch, given that engine RPM’s have returned to within the set speed
range.

PTO Vehicle Speed Settings: Since PTO, EHT and CC all share the same dash controls, a PTO Vehicle Speed Range Limit
must be set to determine when the PTO settings apply. Above this setting the dash switches will not control the PTO settings.
Accordingly, the PTO Vehicle Speed Range Limit must always be selected to be lower than the CC Min Set Speed (see CC
Section). Finally, the PTO Vehicle Limiting Speed is the vehicle speed or MPH that the vehicle is limited to when the PTO is
active. This speed is normally set lower than the basic Vehicle Limiting Speed (VLS) parameter, and the actual vehicle speed
limit is the lower of the two.

PTO Single Speed Control: A Single Speed Control (SSC) can be set independently for each PTO. SSC is a very common
type of PTO operation, as many PTO devices function optimally at a specific RPM. If the PTO Single Speed Control Activation
is selected, the engine RPM will automatically increase and hold at the customer selected PTO SSC Set Speed, assuming the
PTO and SPD CTL switches are on and the Res/Accel switch is depressed. When in SSC mode, all inputs from the dash switch-
es and accelerator pedal will be ignored. Just as with variable speed PTO operation, the PTO SSC Set Speed must be
between the PTO Min Engine Set Speed and the PTO Max Engine Set Speed.

 PTOCONTROL
PTO CONTROL
Jump to Min: It is possible to select the PTO Jump to Min Set Speed feature for any PTO. This feature avoids the need to
manually place the engine RPM within the PTO operating RPM range with the throttle or Res/Accel switch. With the SPD CTL
and appropriate PTO switches on, simply touch the Accel/Decel switch and the engine will automatically jump to the PTO Min
Engine Set Speed. If the PTO is programmed for SSC, then the engine will automatically jump to the PTO SSC Set Speed.

PTO Ramp Rate: PTO Ramp Rate controls the rate at which the engine speed increase when the Res/Accel switch is pressed
and held. A different ramp rate can be set for each PTO. If at any time the Res/Accel or Set/Decel switch is pressed and
held, engine RPM will increase/decrease respectively at the programmed ramp rate.

BENEFITS OF PTO CONTROL

PTO controls have grown increasingly sophisticated over time. On mechanically governed engines, PTO speeds were tradition-
ally set manually using the throttle pedal, then with a dash mounted pull or hand throttle. Today’s sophisticated electronic PTO
controls allow the owner to pre-program PTO settings for multiple PTOs, helping to insure the operation runs at peak efficiency.
Mack PTO controls are highly customizable, using both MackTraq and VCADS, to ensure the controls are set up EXACTLY the
way the customer demands.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

V-MAC IV PTO controls are highly customizable to meet individual customer needs. Many PTO controls are set-up using
VCADS PC Service Support software. Some of the most common custom settings are described below:
• Drop-Out & Temporary Drop-Outs: Each PTO can be set to drop-out or deactivate/cancel based on clutch pedal, brake pedal,
or neutral switch inputs from the transmission. Additionally, a temporary drop-out can be specified. For example, if the clutch is
depressed the PTO speed control will deactivate, but will automatically return to previous settings when the clutch is released.
• Bump Up/Down RPM: Often a driver cannot precisely set a PTO operating speed with the throttle or dash switches. This fea-
ture allows a variable speed PTO driver to bump the set speed up or down a preprogrammed amount with each touch of the
Res/Accel or Set/Decel switch. The default setting is 50 RPM, and is programmable up to 250 RPM per touch.
• Hold to Nearest RPM: Similarly, each variable speed PTO can be set to automatically lock-in at the nearest round number
engine RPM. For example, the 100 RPM default setting means a PTO set to 1660 RPM by the driver will automatically set itself
to 1700 RPM.
• AutoSet: Automatically allows a SSC PTO to go to its set speed once the appropriate PTO switch is activated, assuming the
SPD CTRL switch is ON. There is no need to press the Res/Accel or Set/Decel switches.

 STARTER
PROTECTION
 STARTER PROTECTION
STARTER PROTECTION BASICS
Starter Protection is standard on all Mack products and prevents the starter from being
accidentally activated or from overheating. When the engine is running, the starter
engagement solenoid will be deactivated, and the starter cannot be engaged. This pre-
vents the keyswitch from accidentally cycling by the operator, causing starter grind
which could damage the starter and/or flywheel if the engine is running. A transmis-
sion mounted sensor also monitors neutral status and will not allow the starter to func-
tion unless the transmission is in neutral (on all Allison and Eaton-Fuller automatic/auto-
mated transmissions only).

If high starter temperature is detected due to excessive cranking, the yellow dash fault light will be
activated notifying the operator of high starter temps. If equipped with a Co-Pilot driver display, a pop-up
message will appear alerting the driver that starting is inhibited. The starter engagement will remain inhibited
until temperatures reach acceptable levels.

If the starter has been engaged for an extended period of time (i.e. continued cranking for over 10 seconds) it will temporarily
become disengaged for a short interval until it is deemed safe to retry starting. This feature is also designed to prevent exces-
sive starter thermal loading.

If the engine happens to stall, starter protection will be temporarily disabled so the engine can be re-started without cycling the
ignition switch. If the Theft Deterrence feature is selected, the starter protection feature will not interfere with the Theft
Deterrence starter control.

BENEFITS OF STARTER PROTECTION

Starter Protection is a feature standard on all Macks and is not generally available from competitive OEMs. Benefits include
avoiding unnecessary wear or damage to the starter and flywheel by preventing high temperature, excessive cranking, or
engagement with the engine running. This offers improved overall starting system durability and peace of mind to fleet owners.
Starter Protection can also increase battery life by lessening its drain when starting and ensures that the starter itself has a
longer useable life.

 TAMPER
DETECTION
 TAMPER DETECTION
SPEED SENSOR TAMPER DETECTION
V-MAC IV Speed Sensor Tamper Detection compares speed signals between the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), wheel speed
sensors and transmission output speed sensor to detect if a MPH tampering situation has occurred. This monitors and pre-
vents manipulation of the VLS to gain additional top speed. If enabled, Speed Sensor Tamper Detection Activation will noti-
fy the operator via a fault signal if tampering has been identified. Engine torque can be programmed to become limited to a
certain level if tampering has been detected by setting the Speed Sensor Torque Limit Detection parameter. If the speed
sensor has been removed completely, the Engine Management System (EMS) will also log an electronic fault and limit speed
to 1500 RPM.

Another unique feature to Mack is the ability to continue to monitor electrical parameters even if the key switch is turned off, as
long as the vehicle is moving. This prevents drivers from turning off the key when going downhill and tricking the electrical sys-
tem into achieving a speed above the VLS, without logging the overspeed condition in DataMax.

Detection Torque Limit the issue has been fixed. NOTE: Torque limiting will not
occur if a drive shaft PTO is enabled and active.

BENEFITS OF TAMPER DETECTION

Tampering with vehicle speed sensors has created problems for fleet owners, used truck purchasers, and repair shops for many
years. In many older vehicles and still in some competitor product today, a speed sensor can be easily tampered with to allow
for additional MPH above the Vehicle Limiting Speed (VLS). Higher vehicle speeds specified by the fleet owner significantly
harm fuel economy while creating potentially unsafe operating speeds. By integrating Speed Sensor Tamper Detection and
ABS wheel speed sensor software into V-MAC IV, Mack has ensured that VLS cannot be easily increased by driver tampering.
By allowing this feature to be disabled, an owner-operator who does not need speed sensor tamper detection can ensure that
torque will not be derated if an electrical problem occurs.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

An exception to normal MPH sensor operation is when the vehicle is equipped with a driveshaft PTO, such as certain pumping
applications. When the Drive-Shaft Power Take Off (PTO) option is enabled and active (see PTO Basics section), the Speed
Sensor Tamper Detection Torque Limit option will be inhibited until drive shaft PTO use ceases. This prevents a conflict from
occurring between the ABS wheel speed sensors and the transmission output speed sensor which would cause a Tamper
Detection event to falsely be detected. Full tamper detection and drive shaft PTO programmable parameter control is available
through VCADS PC Service Support Software.

TRANSMISSION

 TRANSMISSION SETTINGS
TRANSMISSION SETTINGS BASICS
AutoShift: The AutoShift 10 speed transmission is an advanced shift-by-wire
system consisting of a Fuller medium-heavy transmission communicating with an
electronic engine for precise control of the engine, transmission, and clutch func-
tions. Shift-by-wire totally eliminates mechanical lever shifting, keeping both of the
driver’s hands on the wheel. The clutch is used only for starting and stopping.
Once the vehicle is in motion, AutoShift operates like an automatic transmission,
with the efficiency of a manual transmission.

UltraShift: The UltraShift 10 speed transmission uses full automation

(no clutch pedal) for greater driver comfort and less stress than manual shifting.
Full automation increases satisfaction and safety, and saves time and expense to train
new drivers. Optional manual mode allows the driver to initiate and control shifts for
flexibility during changing conditions or hold a gear as appropriate. All Fuller automated transmissions communicate with an
electronic engine for precise control of the engine, transmission and clutch functions.

Mack Trucks offers the ability to further tailor Eaton-Fuller automated transmissions to their specific application using the Eaton
AutoShift/UltraShift Shift Mode. The transmission shift points can be programmed to create a bias toward either increased
Fuel Economy or increased Performance. In the first 5 gears, shifts will occur at 1850 RPM for both options. In gears 6-10,
shifts occur at 1750 RPM for Fuel Economy and 1850 RPM for Performance. The default setting for all Pinnacle models is Fuel
Economy, and the default for all Granite models is Performance.

* The parameter is defined by the transmission supplier.

BENEFITS OF TRANSMISSION SETTINGS

In general, lower RPM shift points equate to slightly better fuel efficiency and slightly less vehicle acceleration. By allowing
additional transmission settings to be specified, Mack gives our customers another opportunity to optimize the MPG/MPH trade-
off to meet individual driver or fleet needs. In instances where additional performance and RPM’s are required (heavier loads,
mountainous regions, etc.) the Performance setting offers slightly higher shift points and better acceleration with only a minor
sacrifice in fuel economy.

The ability to change Eaton Transmission Settings is not available through VCADS PC Service Support Software. However,
AutoShift and UltraShift transmission shift mode settings as well as other parameters can be changed using supplier after-
market service support software.

 VEHICLE
LIMITING SPEED
 VEHICLE LIMITING SPEED
VEHICLE LIMITING SPEED BASICS

The Customer Vehicle Limiting Speed (VLS), also referred to as Road Speed Limit (RSL), is the maximum fueled vehicle speed
attainable using the accelerator pedal, regardless of mechanical gearing. As an OEM, Mack has set a definitive upper limit on VLS
of 87 MPH. At no point may any VLS exceed this value.
The Lower Gear Vehicle Limiting Speed Feature Activation (LGVLS) will limit the maximum-fueled vehicle speed if the transmis-
sion is not operated in the highest gear. Typically it prevents prolonged cruising at high, inefficient engine RPM one gear below top
gear. This feature can be enabled or disabled and the speed can be set to customer preference. This value should always be lower
than the VLS value. If this feature is enabled and the Engine Management System (EMS) determines vehicle speed is above this
limit and the transmission is not in top gear, the vehicle speed shall be decreased down to the LGVLS. This feature is used to encour-
age the driver to operate the vehicle in the highest gear for maximum efficiency, and is most applicable in vehicles with 13-18 speed
transmissions. MackTraq comes equipped with recommended settings for all VLS/LGVLS functions. If equipped with an automatic
or automated manual transmission, LGVLS will be disabled. It is assumed that an automated transmission will make all shifts based
on optimum vehicle performance on its own.

Note: The LGVLS MPH may not be reached under certain circumstances if the Engine High Idle in Upper Gears parameter is set
to a value that restricts MPH, typically one gear below top. Care must be taken to review these settings when ordering the vehicle.
Often if a reduced high idle speed is selected in upper gears, there is no need for LGVLS to be activated.

Additional adjustments in VLS below the Customer Vehicle Limiting Speed are possible when using Cruise Control, Power Take Off,
Electronic Hand Throttle, or when Fuel Economy Incentive is enabled. Please see these respective sections in this manual for more
details. When one of these additional operational modes is active, the Minimum Rule is in effect: The lowest set VLS (for LGVLS,
CC, PTO1, PTO2, etc.) will take precedence and limit vehicle speed until deactivated.

Additionally, Mack further limits vehicle MPH under certain conditions to prevent equipment damage or improve vehicle safety. Vehicle
speed is automatically limited to 15 MPH if the air suspension is deflated or the fifth wheel slide is not locked (if equipped). Vehicle
speed is also limited to 15 MPH if the Power Divider Lockout (PDLO) is engaged for any vehicles equipped with tandem drive axles
(both Mack and vendor interaxle power dividers).

 VEHICLE LIMITING SPEED
BENEFITS OF VEHICLE LIMITING SPEED
VLS is the most basic of all vehicle settings and is a key parameter for operators to choose correctly. VLS is driver sensitive
and controls speed during almost all driving situations. Changes to VLS can affect trip time and fuel economy to a high degree.
Above 55 MPH, every one MPH increase will cause roughly a .1 MPG decrease in fuel economy. Setting a proper VSL helps
regulate fuel economy and allow vehicle speed control for fleet owners when they are not present in the vehicle.

LGVLS prevents drivers from cruising, usually one gear below top, in an inefficient (too high) engine RPM range. This can harm
fuel economy over an extended period of time and typically occurs in highway applications with 13-18 speed transmissions when
driving on secondary interstates, areas with 55/60MPH speed limits, or in high traffic regions. Another benefit of LGVLS is that
when properly set, it signals the operator when it is time to make an upshift into top gear.

WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Additional information on Vehicle Limiting Speed is available using VCADS PC Service Support Software. Consult your deal-
er's certified V-MAC technician for additional details. There are many different customer Vehicle Limiting Speeds available
based on operating conditions (PTO, EHT), reliability (5th wheel slide, air suspension interlock, Power Divider Lockout), or Theft
Deterrence. Some of these are addressed in other sections of MackTraq, while others lie solely in VCADS.
