gear. Pressing the transmission downshift switch (3) causes the transmission to shift

3. In the automatic mode the operator can select the highest desired operating speed
from the options on the transmission autoshift control switch. The electronically
controlled transmission system selects the proper transmission gear according to
the ground speed of the machine.
The downshift switch is active in all gears. The downshift switch can cause transmission
downshifts at machine speeds that are higher than normal. Pressing and releasing
the downshift switch will cause a downshift of one gear. The downshift will only occur
if the machine speed and the engine speed will not result in an engine overspeed
condition. Pressing and holding the downshift switch will cause the transmission to
continue to downshift as the machine speed decreases. The transmission will remain
in the downshifted gear for three seconds after the downshift switch is released, then
automatic shifting is resumed.
To activate the autoshift function, the autoshift control switch is turned to a selected
selected gear. As the machine slows, the transmission will automatically downshift.

Modes of Operation
Modes of operation The Caterpillar Monitoring System provides operational, service, and diagnostic
information from the various machine electronic control systems. This information is
displayed in three different “modes” on the monitoring system. These modes provide
information about the condition of the machine and the setup of the monitoring
system.
Normal mode The Caterpillar Monitoring System on the R1600G Load Haul Dump operates in the
normal mode during normal machine operation. In the NORMAL mode, the monitoring
system continuously watches the machine systems and displays output information
through the gauges and the digital display windows. Also, when an abnormal
condition exists in any of the monitored machine systems, the Caterpillar Monitoring
System will alert the operator.
Operator mode The operator modes provide additional information about the machine systems and
setup. The operator can select four modes using the operator mode scroll switch in
the operator station.
SERV1867 - 12/08 -23- Module 1 - Operator’s Station and Monitoring System
Service mode The SERVICE mode includes several modes that provide information concerning the
machine harness code, diagnostic codes, out-of-range gauge readings, and other
machine condition information.
The main display module knows what machine model it is connected to based on the
machine harness code. The harness code (machine code) is the input provided to
the main display module by the open or grounded condition of six wires in the wiring
harness.
