System Overview
SMCS - 1900
System Operation
The electronic system consists of the following components: Electronic Control Module (ECM),
Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injectors (HEUI), Injection Actuation Pressure Control Valve (IAPCV),
wiring harness, switches and sensors. The ECM receives information from the sensors and the
switches on the engine. The ECM processes the information that is collected in order to make
decisions on control of the engine. By altering the fuel delivery of the injectors, the ECM controls
the speed and the power that is produced by the engine.
Electronic Control System
The ECM consists of two main components:
• Control computer (hardware)
• Personality module (software)

Personality module
The control computer is the microprocessor and the electronic circuitry. The personality module
contains the software for the control computer. The software contains operating maps that define the
following characteristics of the engine:
• Horsepower
• Torque curves
• Engine speed
Engine Governor

The ECM governs the engine speed by controlling the amount of fuel that is delivered by the
injectors. Refer to Illustration 2. The desired engine speed is determined by input from the throttle
switch. Actual engine speed is measured by the engine speed/timing sensors. The ECM changes the
amount of fuel that is injected until the actual engine speed matches the desired engine speed.
Fuel Injection

The ECM controls the timing, the duration, and the pressure of the fuel that is injected. The ECM
controls the timing and the duration by varying the signals to the injectors. The injectors will inject
fuel only if the injector solenoid is energized by a 105 volt signal from the ECM. By controlling the
timing and the duration of the 105 volt signal, the ECM can control the timing of the injection and
the ECM can control the amount of fuel that is injected. The ECM modulates the injection pressure

by varying the signal to the Injection Actuation Pressure Control Valve (IAPCV). The IAPCV
controls the pressure of the high pressure oil. The high pressure oil pressurizes the fuel that is in the
injectors. By controlling the signal to the IAPCV, the ECM controls the pressure of the fuel that is
injected into the engine.
The ECM limits engine power and the ECM modifies injection pressure and injection timing during
Cold Mode operation. Cold Mode operation has the following benefits: increased startability,
reduced warm up period and reduced white smoke. Cold Mode is active if the engine oil temperature
falls below a predetermined value and other conditions are met. Cold Mode remains active until the
engine has warmed or until a time limit has been exceeded.
The personality module inside the ECM sets certain limits on the amount of fuel that can be injected.
The FRC Limit is a limit that is based on the boost pressure. The boost pressure is calculated as the
difference in pressure between atmospheric pressure and turbocharger outlet pressure. The FRC
Limit is used to control the air/fuel ratio for control of emissions. When the ECM senses a higher
boost pressure, the ECM increases the FRC Limit. A higher boost pressure indicates that there is
more air in the cylinder. When the ECM increases the FRC Limit, the ECM allows more fuel into
the cylinder.
The Rated Fuel Position is a limit that is based on the power rating of the engine. The Rated Fuel
Position is similar to the rack stops and the torque spring on a mechanically governed engine. The
Rated Fuel Position determines maximum power and torque values for a specific engine family and
a specific rating. The Rated Fuel Position is programmed in the personality module at the factory.
Programmable Parameters
System Configuration Parameters are parameters that are stored in the ECM. The stored parameters
affect engine operation. The parameters are set at the factory. The parameters may be changed by
using an electronic service tool. However, a factory password may be required in order to change
certain parameters.
Passwords
Several parameters and most logged events are protected by factory passwords. Factory passwords
are available only to Caterpillar dealers.
Note: Refer to Troubleshooting, "Factory Passwords" for information, if factory passwords are
needed.
