Programmable Parameters
Some features have individual parameters that are customizable; the details of these
programmable parameters are given in a reference table. The reference table is
divided into three columns: “Parameter Name,” “Number,” and
“Min/Max/Default/Unit”. The “Number” column references a code number to identify
the parameter during the ordering or the aftermarket parameter setting change
processes. The “Min/Max/Default/Unit” column defines the minimum and maximum
values of the parameter setting. If the parameter is not altered during specification of
the vehicle, the default setting is delivered from the factory. The units associated with
a parameter are labeled after the value of the parameter.
Nonprogrammable Parameters
Unchangeable parameters, also known as nonprogrammable parameters, are used
to assist in the explanation of a feature. A reference table is provided which is
divided into two columns: “Parameter Name” and “Default/Unit”. The “Parameter
Name” column identifies the parameter. The “Default/Unit” column defines the default
or standard value and unit associated with it.
ON/OFF Requirements
To define when a feature is enabled/ON or disabled/OFF, a reference table is used
to detail the required conditions. The table is divided into two columns: ON and OFF.
In each column, there is a list of conditions that must be met for the feature to be ON
or OFF. In addition, both columns include a stipulation of “All” or “Any” in
parentheses. “All” indicates that every condition listed in the column is required to
turn the feature ON or OFF. “Any” indicates that only one of the conditions listed in
the column is required to turn the feature ON or OFF.

4.0 Engine Ratings
Overview
The engine rating states the peak power and torque of the engine. The engine is
available with several power ratings, allowing the engine to provide the correct
amount of power to complete the job while limiting the torque within driveline
component limitations. Increasing the power rating may put main driveline
components at risk for premature wear or damage.
Two MX-13 ratings and one MX-11 rating are available with Multi-Torque; these
ratings are identified by the MT in the option name. Multi-Torque engine ratings
provide an increased maximum torque output in the top two gears of rated
transmissions. The increased torque delivery from Multi-Torque is represented in
Graph 4.2 and Graph 4.4 as dashed lines.
Two refuse engine configurations are available for the MX-11, which provide specific
turbocharger and engine brake control strategies to allow for quieter operation.

5.0 General Settings
Overview
Basic engine parameters
Standard Feature
High Exhaust System Temperature (HEST) Warning
Fuel Density
The High Exhaust System Temperature (HEST) warning indicator allows the engine
to inform the driver when the exhaust temperature exceeds HEST Warning
Temperature Activation Limit and the vehicle speed is less than Minimum Speed for
High Exhaust Temp Warning (N065). The warning indicator will turn off once the
exhaust temperature falls below the HEST Warning Temperature Deactivation Limit.
Fuel Density (N051) allows the customer to reprogram the engine controller with a
fuel density that more precisely represents the local fuel variation used in their
vehicles, which will improve the accuracy of the controller’s calculated fuel economy.

6.0 Idle Settings
Programmable Parameters
N052 Page 14 Min Default Max Units
Standard Feature
EIST
EIST Low Battery Voltage Overrule
EIST initiates when engine speed is at idle, the vehicle is stationary, and the
accelerator pedal is motionless or not depressed. Within the standard feature, there
are many programmable parameters:
Timer Durations and Enablement Conditions
Coolant, Oil, and Fuel Temperature Overrule
Programmable resets
Idle Time w/ Parking Brake Set (N187) specifies the timer duration until the engine
shuts down while the parking brake is engaged, while Idle Time w/ Parking Brake
Released (N188) specifies the timer duration until the engine shuts down while the
parking brake is disengaged. Once the timer has expired, a warning message in the
truck’s driver display will indicate that shutdown is imminent. Idle Timer Shutdown
Warning Duration (N194) determines the duration of the idle shutdown timer warning
before the engine is shut down. Allow Idle Timer Reset During Warning (N178)
specifies if the driver will be able to reset the idle timer by performing one of the
programmable reset conditions during the idle shutdown warning period. Otherwise,
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 14 of 105
the driver may reset the idle timer at any time by performing one of the
programmable reset conditions.
Temperature Overrules are available to allow the engine to idle while coolant, oil and
fuel temperatures are below calibrated settings.
Programmable Resets are signals from equipment on the vehicle that the driver
actuates. The resets can be turned ON or OFF. If the reset is ON when the
equipment is actuated, the EIST counter will restart. Programmable resets may only
occur once the driver has received notification of an impending shutdown on the
driver display. For example, when the EIST is set to 5 minutes with the accelerator
pedal reset ON and the vehicle idling for 4 minutes, a message of an impending
shutdown will appear on the driver display and an actuation of the accelerator pedal
will reset the timer and delay the engine’s shutdown for another 5 minutes (total idle
time is 9 minutes). The following is a list of programmable reset conditions:
Enable Idle Timer Accelerator Pedal Reset (N197)
Enable Idle Timer Service Brake Reset (N198)
Enable Idle Timer Clutch Pedal Reset (N199)
Enable Idle Timer Reset from Park Brake (N179)
Enable Idle Timer Reset from Engine Load (N190)
Feature Options
Ambient Air Temperature Override
Engine Load Override
Engine Idle Shutdown Timer in PTO Mode
Ambient Air Temperature Override allows the engine to maintain operation without
shutdown when the temperature is above Idle Timer High Ambient Temp Threshold
(N184) or below Idle Timer Low Ambient Temp Threshold (N185). The idle shutdown
timer will also be disabled when the coolant temperature is below Idle Timer Low
Coolant Temperature Override Threshold (N182).
EIST Engine Load Override allows the engine to maintain operation without
shutdown when the engine load is above Idle Timer Engine Load Threshold (N183).
Enable Idle Timer Override from Engine Load (N191) is only available when Enable
Idle Timer Reset from Engine Load (N190) is turned OFF. This feature is not
available with EIST in PTO Mode.
EIST may be configured to operate while the engine is in PTO Mode, and the timer
duration may be set with Idle Time in PTO Mode (N186). The same conditions must
be met for the EIST to shutdown the engine.
If preferred EIST settings are selected during the ordering process, the customer will
be unable to make changes to EIST timer durations or overrides until the vehicle has
exceeded Idle Timer Expiration Distance (N193).

Fast Idle Control (FIC)
Overview
The Fast Idle Control (FIC) functionality allows adjustment of engine idle speed
within preprogrammable limits. This allows the driver to adapt to changing engine
speed requirements. For example, the driver can raise engine speed for faster
engine warm-up on a cold day. Raising the idle can improve HVAC performance in
extreme conditions while parked, and may be helpful for other service operations
such as charging the batteries or air system. Fleet managers may find that altering
some of the FIC settings may yield better fuel economy when the application
requires extended idle operations. The FIC module allows a fleet owner to set limits
in order to enhance overall operating economy. FIC is a standard feature of the
engine, but can be disabled to ensure that engine idle speed cannot be altered.
The default FIC settings are useful for the majority of applications, so modifications
of the default settings typically are not necessary. Before changing the default
parameters, it is strongly recommended to consult the customer and/or body builder
to determine the specific vehicle application.
Standard Feature
FIC
FIC becomes active and allows the driver to control the engine speed with the
Set/Accel and Resume/Decel switches when all of the following conditions are met:
The Cruise Control switch is in the ON position
The vehicle is stationary
The transmission is in neutral
The parking brake is set
FIC may be enabled or disabled with Enable Fast Idle Control (N071) and the
maximum FIC engine speed can be limited by Maximum Engine Speed in Fast Idle
Control (N072).
FIC will be overruled if the accelerator pedal request exceeds the FIC request, at
which point the accelerator pedal will control engine speed. FIC will automatically
deactivate if the clutch pedal or the service brake pedal are depressed.
The Set/Accel switch allows the driver to increase the engine speed. When FIC is
active and the Set/Accel switch is pressed, the engine speed will increase by Engine
Speed Ramp-Up w/ Set/Accel (N107). When FIC is active and the Set/Accel switch
is pressed and held, the engine speed will increase at Engine Speed Increase w/
Set/Accel (N103).
The Resume/Decel switch allows the driver to decrease the engine speed. When FIC
is active and the Resume/Decel switch is pressed, the engine speed will decrease by
Engine Speed Ramp-down w/ Res/Decel (N105). When FIC is active and the
Resume/Decel switch is pressed and held, the engine speed will decrease at Engine
Speed Decrease w/ Res/Decel (N104).

7.0 Fan Clutch Control
Overview
The Fan Clutch Control controls the fan clutch based on various engine
temperatures.
Standard Feature
Fan Clutch Control
Fan Clutch Control allows the engine to control the fan clutch based on coolant,
charge air cooler, and power steering fluid temperatures. These temperatures are
not programmable.
Feature Options
Minimum Fan Clutch Engagement Time
Minimum Fan Clutch Engagement Time (N057) allows customization of the minimum
amount of time the fan clutch is engaged before it can become disengaged.

5/3/2018 Page 24 of 105
8.0 Cruise Control (CC)
Overview
The Cruise Control (CC) functionality allows the driver to set a target vehicle speed
and then adjust it within programmable limits. This allows the driver to adapt to
changing vehicle speed requirements. For example, the driver can increase or
decrease speed by briefly pressing or pressing and holding the Cruise Control
switches on the dashboard or steering wheel. The vehicle must be within the
programmed limits to activate and maintain Cruise Control.
The Cruise Control module allows a fleet owner to set preprogrammed limits in order
to enhance overall operating economy. CC is a standard feature of the engine, and
the default CC settings are useful for a majority of applications. Before changing the
default parameters, it is strongly recommended to consult the customer and/or body
builder to review the Cruise Control options.
Standard Feature
Cruise Control
Cruise Control ON/OFF switch
Set/Accel switch
Resume/Decel switch
CC regulates engine torque to maintain the desired vehicle speed. CC ON/OFF,
Set/Accel, and Resume/Decel are in-cab switches that allow the driver to operate
CC.
The CC ON/OFF switch allows the driver to control the vehicle speed if the switch is
in the ON position. When the switch is in the OFF position, CC is deactivated and the
engine will not automatically maintain an driver-desired vehicle speed.
The Set/Accel switch allows the driver to activate CC when the CC is ON, which
assigns the current vehicle speed as the Cruise Control target speed. The vehicle
speed must be at or above Minimum Speed to Enable Cruise Control (N002) to
activate cruise control. While CC is active, the driver is free from having to control the
vehicle speed using the accelerator pedal. While CC is actively controlling vehicle
speed, briefly pressing the Set/Accel switch will cause the vehicle speed to increase
by the value of Vehicle Speed Increase w/Set/Accel (N005). While CC is actively
controlling vehicle speed, and the Set/Accel switch is pressed and held, the vehicle
will accelerate until the switch is released or the Maximum Cruise Control Target
Speed (N006) is reached.
While Cruise Control is ON, the Resume/Decel switch allows the driver to activate
CC and resume maintaining a previously set Cruise Control vehicle speed. The
stored target vehicle speed is reset with an ignition key cycle. While CC is actively
controlling vehicle speed, briefly pressing the Resume/Decel switch will cause the
vehicle speed to decrease by the value of Vehicle Speed Decrease w/Res/Decel
(N004). While CC is actively controlling vehicle speed, and the Resume/Decel switch
is pressed and held, the vehicle will decelerate until the switch is released or the
Minimum Cruise Control Target Speed (N003) is reached. If the vehicle speed falls
below Minimum Speed to Disable Cruise Control (N001), then CC will become
inactive.
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 25 of 105
Feature Options
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Cruise Control Multi-Torque Mode
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) can overrule CC in order to maintain a set following
distance to a target vehicle. ACC is not described in this document. Refer to the
Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) documentation for a detailed description
of ACC functionality.
For engines with a multi-torque engine rating, Multi-Torque Only when Cruise Active
(N039) is an option that allows the fleet owner to specify when the extra torque
available from the multi-torque rating will be available. When this option is enabled,
the extra torque will only be available when the Cruise Control is actively controlling
vehicle speed. When the Cruise Control Multi-Torque Mode is disabled, the extra
torque will be available with or without Cruise Control.
Considerations
Programming for vehicles that are intended for mobile Power Take-Off (PTO)
applications:
N001 must be at least 6 MPH greater than PTO Maximum Vehicle Speed
(N080)
N002 must be at least 3 MPH greater than N001
N003 must be greater than or equal to N002

9.0 Vehicle Speed Limiter
Overview
The Vehicle Speed Limiter functionality is designed to improve fuel economy by
reducing the maximum vehicle speed and limiting the maximum vehicle acceleration.
Standard Feature
Without Vehicle Speed Limiter
The speed of the vehicle will be limited to the maximum value of Maximum
Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) or Maximum Cruise Control Target Speed
(N006).
Feature Options
Vehicle Speed Limiter
Vehicle Acceleration Limiter
Vehicle Speed Limiter
On Greenhouse Gas (GHG) compliant vehicles, GHG Maximum Speed Limit (N170)
will limit the overall maximum speed of the vehicle, until the GHG Expiration Distance
(N169) has been exceeded. The GHG expiration mileage is available in the chassis
information within PVP, and may not be changed. For example, if Maximum
Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) is set to 55 mph, Maximum Cruise Control
Target Speed (N006) is set to 70 mph, and Maximum Vehicle Speed Limit (N170) is
set to 64 mph, the vehicle can be driven to a maximum speed of 55 mph with the
pedal. If Cruise Control is enabled the vehicle speed may be increased to a
maximum of 64 mph, as the vehicle will not exceed the value of Maximum Vehicle
Speed Limit (N170) when the engine is fueled.
For non-GHG compliant vehicles, or vehicles that have exceeded the GHG
expiration mileage, GHG Maximum Speed Limit (N170) is ignored, allowing
Maximum Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) and Maximum Cruise Control
Target Speed (N006) to determine the overall maximum speed of the vehicle. Table
8.1 illustrates how the overall maximum vehicle speed is determined.

10.0 Engine Protection System
Overview
The Engine Protection System monitors the engine systems for conditions that might
require the engine to either derate, or in some circumstances shut down. If any of the
monitored conditions exceed Engine Protection System thresholds, the functionality
will provide a visual warning to the driver. This warning allows the driver to adjust the
operation of the vehicle to correct the condition. If the customer has selected either
derate or shutdown, and the driver has not succeeded in correcting the condition, a
derate or shutdown sequence will be initiated. Derate provides reduced engine
performance to correct the engine condition. Shutdown will turn the engine off to
prevent imminent failure.
Standard Configuration
Derate
Derate allows the engine to provide a power reduction or a maximum engine speed
limitation. If an engine is equipped with derate, once a visual warning is provided a
derate will be implemented in an attempt to correct the condition and mitigate a
potential failure. Once a derate request has been triggered, the derate will implement
immediately.
Additional Configuration Options
Warning
Shutdown
Warning allows the engine to provide a visual indication that the Engine Protection
System has detected a condition that could potentially cause an engine failure.
Shutdown allows the Engine Protection System to turn off the engine if the driver
does not take action to correct the condition. When a shutdown request is triggered,
the engine will shutdown in 60 seconds.

11.0 PACCAR Engine Brake
Overview
The PACCAR Engine Brake is a fully integrated engine compression brake that
provides braking forces through the driveline. It reduces wear on the service brakes
and improves vehicle control in deceleration events when active. The PACCAR
Engine Brake operates using standard dash switches, and is customizable to meet
the requirements of the driver or fleet.
Standard Feature
PACCAR Engine Brake ON/OFF Switch
Retarder Select Switch
Manual Mode (both with cruise control turned ON and OFF)
The PACCAR Engine Brake ON/OFF switch allows the driver to turn retarder ON
and OFF.
The default setting for the PACCAR Engine Brake is Manual Mode. Manual Mode
allows the engine to provide braking when the PACCAR Engine Brake switch is in
the ON position, the engine is not being fueled, and the cruise control is inactive. The
driver may use the Retarder Select Switch to select from three levels of braking
power: Low (33%), Medium (66%), and High (100%).
When the PACCAR Engine Brake switch is in the ON position, the driver will be
notified by an indicator the driver display. Examples of the notification are provided in
the Additional Information portion of this section.
Feature Options
Engine Brake Engagement Delay
Minimum Vehicle Speed to Enable Engine Brake
Engine Brake Disable when Out of Gear
Engine Brake Behavior When Cruise Control is ON:
o Manual Mode
o Coast Mode
o Latch Mode
Downhill Speed Control (Auto-Retard in Cruise Control)
Downhill Speed Limiter (DSL)
The customer has the option to select from three operating modes for the PACCAR
Engine Brake when the PACCAR Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON and cruise
control is ON and inactive. The three operating modes are mutually exclusive of one
another:
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 37 of 105
Manual Mode is the default setting for the PACCAR Engine Brake when
the PACCAR Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON and cruise control is
ON and inactive. It behaves the same way as the Manual Mode
described in Standard Features portion of this section.
Coast Mode allows the engine to provide braking when the PACCAR
Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON, the Cruise Control is ON and
inactive, and the service brake is applied. The PACCAR Engine Brake
will de-activate in Coast Mode when the service brake pedal is released
or cruise control is activated.
Latch Mode allows the engine to provide braking when the PACCAR
Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON, cruise control is ON and inactive,
and the service brake pedal is applied. Latch Mode will continue to
provide braking after the service brake pedal is released and will de-
activate when the accelerator pedal is applied or cruise control is
activated.
The engine can be programmed to delay the activation of the engine brake, if
needed, using Time Delay for Retarder Activation (N019). For example, the driver
may wish to deactivate Cruse Control by quickly pressing the brake pedal without
activating the engine brake when using Coast or Latch mode. Specifying a delay
would allow this to occur, but still provide engine braking when the driver presses the
brake pedal for a prolonged period during a braking event. The engine brake may
also be programmed to be disabled when the transmission is out of gear with Engine
Brake Disabled When Out of Gear (N015) to assist the driver while shifting.
The engine brake will become disabled when the vehicle speed falls below Minimum
Vehicle Speed for Engine Brake Activation (N026).
Downhill Speed Control allows the engine to provide braking when the PACCAR
Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON, Cruise Control is active and the vehicle speed
exceeds the Cruise Control target speed plus the Auto-Retarder Vehicle Speed
Offset (N014). A large offset will reduce engine brake usage, while a lower offset will
increase engine brake usage. A lower offset is recommended for vehicles operating
in steep terrain. Downhill Speed Control will deactivate when the vehicle speed has
been reduced to the Cruise Control target speed or when Cruise Control is
deactivated. Downhill Speed Control will function independently of all other PACCAR
Engine Brake parameters.
The Downhill Speed Limiter (DSL) allows the engine to provide braking when the
PACCAR Engine Brake ON/OFF switch is ON and the vehicle speed exceeds the
Maximum Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) plus the Downhill Speed Limiter
Vehicle Speed Offset (N013), The Downhill Speed Limiter will function independently
of all other PACCAR Engine Brake parameters.
In Manual Mode, the Downhill Speed Limiter will activate if the vehicle speed
exceeds the Maximum Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) plus the Downhill
Speed Limiter Vehicle Speed Offset (N013). If the Downhill Speed Limiter is already
active, the PACCAR Engine Brake power will be increased, but if the Downhill Speed
Limiter is already at maximum capacity, the Downhill Speed Limiter will have no
effect on the PACCAR Engine Brake. The Downhill Speed Limiter will automatically
deactivate when the vehicle speed has been reduced to the Maximum Accelerator
Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162).

12.0 Power Take-Off (PTO) Mode Engine Speed Control
Overview
Power Take-Off (PTO) Mode provides engine speed controls in addition to
configurable interlocks that are available to restrict PTO Mode (if required.) PTO
Mode is fully customizable with multiple programmable engine and vehicle speed
parameters and safety interlocks.
The MX engines are suitable for use in many applications requiring auxiliary PTO-
driven equipment. The engine PTO controls are flexible with many customizable
features, which allow for configurations to meet the needs of many different vehicle
applications. PTO Mode can make the operation of PTO-driven equipment safer and
more convenient for the driver, and can protect both the chassis drivetrain and PTO-
driven auxiliary equipment from misuse and potential damage. The Engine Idle
Shutdown Timer (EIST) may also be disabled in PTO Mode to allow for extended
operations with the engine at idle. The engine is also capable of logging time and
fuel consumption in PTO Mode separately from non-PTO operation.
While the engine is in PTO mode, many different limitations can be imposed by
software in the engine controller. These limitations may include:
Engine Speed
Engine Speed Ramp-Up/Ramp-Down Rates
Maximum Engine Torque Output
Vehicle Speed
Engine Idle Time
Safety Interlocks
The purpose of this section is to describe the engine PTO Mode programming
features and capabilities. The default PTO settings will support many applications.
For fine-tuning of the features, it is strongly recommended that the body builder
and/or customer be consulted for their specific requirements. If no PTO is anticipated
for the vehicle or the PTO operation will not require the engine to go into PTO Mode
for specific engine speed controls or safety interlocks, no action is required at order
entry. The special features associated with PTO Mode operation may be specified
during the vehicle order process, and changes to the factory settings may be made
post-delivery via a PRS file from the PACCAR Engine Support Center.
Additional transmission configuration may be necessary depending on the equipped
transmission and/or transfer case. PACCAR recommends consulting the
transmission manufacturer for information related to specific wiring harnesses and
transmission programming requirements for proper PTO functionality. The following
references may also assist in properly configuring the transmission for PTO use:

PTO Control via CAN Communication
PACCAR MX engines support remote PTO Mode controls via the B-CAN network.
Signal Source for Remote Main Switch (N102) may be configured to allow for PTO
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 45 of 105
engagement communications between the remote PTO module and the cab
electronic control unit (CECU) or via legacy hardwired connection directly from the
PTO device to the engine controller. Remote switch and remote throttle signal types
must be specified within the drivetrain parameters on the CECU. Additional
networking interface parameter changes are required within the CECU depending on
the application requirements in order to allow remote PTO control modules to
function properly via the B-CAN network. For additional information about the
required changes to the CECU parameters, consult the appropriate body builder
manual for the vehicle.
PACCAR MX engines allow for remote engine speed control functionality via TSC1
messaging from remote control modules by configuring Enable Engine Speed
Control via TSC1 (N306). In addition, a hardwired or CAN PTO engagement
feedback signal must be provided to allow the engine to enter PTO mode to enable
PTO engine speed control and safety interlocks, and Signal Source for Remote Main
Switch (N102) must be configured according to the signal source of the PTO mode
request. TSC1 messages must be broadcast from source address 36 (0x24) to
destination address 0 (0x00). Messages must also specify control purpose P3: PTO
Governor to allow the engine controller to respond to TSC1 requests.
The following table describes the J1939 PTO, EEC2 and TSC1 messages supported
by the MX engines while programmed with Remote PTO configurations:

Value 0xF (all bits set to 1) will indicate
that the checksum is not available.
PEC017

Particular applications will require the use of a split-shaft transfer case to decouple
the drive axles and fully divert engine power to auxiliary equipment. The Split Shaft
PTO Installed parameter must be enabled in the CECU using the Electronic Service
Analyst (ESA) tool. Enabling this parameter will allow the transmission to be in gear
while the parking brake is engaged without displaying the associated warnings and
audible alarms. PACCAR recommends consulting the transmission and/or transfer
case manufacturer for details on proper configuration for split-shaft PTO devices.
Note: PTO functionality for remote station controls and hardwired PTO
engagement feedback is not currently available for vehicles equipped with
Allison and Ultrashift transmissions in applications which require the
transmission to be in-gear during PTO operation. Vehicles with these
configurations and requirements must rely on in-cab control configurations to
allow PTO mode functionality, or provide J1939 PTO message to request the
engine to enter PTO mode.
PEC017

PTO Speed Control Configuration
The standard engine programming is without PTO engine speed controls. Without
PTO Mode allows the engine to operate normally without any PTO engine speed
controls or restrictions. If the vehicle application will require the engine to go into
PTO Mode for specific throttle controls or interlocks, one of the control configurations
listed in Figure 12.1 must be selected. The following flow chart may be used to
program the required and user configurable parameters to properly configure the
vehicle to suit particular applications:

PTO Mode Interlocks
PTO interlocks provide an extra level of component protection when operating the
engine in PTO Mode. The engine enters PTO Mode when the engine receives a
signal via hardwired engagement feedback or a signal from a body controller via
BCAN. If an interlock condition exists, the engine will not enter PTO Mode until the
interlock condition is eliminated. An existing interlock condition does NOT prevent
the PTO from mechanically engaging or cause the PTO device to disengage and will
only prevent the engine from entering PTO Mode. When in PTO Mode, if one of the
interlock conditions occur, the engine control unit (ECU) reverts back to normal
driving mode and all controls, logic, and limits related to PTO Mode will become
inactive. This includes limits related to minimum engine speed, maximum engine
speed, maximum vehicle speed, and maximum engine torque. Other PTO Mode
features, such as disabling the idle shutdown timer and logging PTO Mode hours
and fuel usage will also become inactive.
The following list describes the available PTO Mode interlocks and the conditions
that will prevent the engine from entering PTO Mode, or cause the engine to exit
PTO Mode:
Disable PTO Mode w/Clutch Depressed (N078) – When this interlock is
enabled, operating the clutch pedal will cause the engine to exit PTO Mode.
o Disabled for mobile applications
Disable PTO Mode w/ Brake Depressed (N101) – When this interlock is
enabled, operating the service brake pedal will cause the engine to exit PTO
Mode.
o Required for Mobile Cab Station Accelerator and Switches
configuration when PTO Mode Vehicle Speed Limit (N080) is greater
than 3 MPH
o May be disabled for Mobile Cab Station Accelerator Only and all
Remote station configurations
Require Parking Brake for PTO Mode (N079) – When this interlock is
enabled, disengaging the parking brake will cause the engine to exit PTO
Mode, or prevent the engine from entering PTO Mode.
o This interlock is automatically configured based on the selected
configuration and is required for all stationary PTO applications.
Neutral Required for PTO Mode (N089) – When this interlock is enabled,
the transmission must be in neutral to allow the engine to enter PTO Mode.
With this interlock enabled, shifting the transmission out of the neutral
position will cause the engine to exit PTO Mode.
o This interlock is disabled for mobile applications.
PTO Mode Vehicle Speed Limit (N080) – While in PTO Mode, the vehicle
will not accelerate past the Maximum Vehicle Speed During PTO Operation
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 54 of 105
(N080). If the vehicle exceeds this speed limit by more than 6 MPH, the
engine will exit PTO Mode. This may happen in a downhill scenario or when
an external force or input (such as an incline or pushing/towing the vehicle)
causes the vehicle speed to increase.
o PTO Mode Vehicle Speed Limit (N080) must be at least 6MPH less
than Minimum Speed to Disable Cruise Control (N001). See the
section on Cruise Control for more detailed information on avoiding
conflicts between PTO Mode and Cruise Control.
NOTE: When an interlock condition occurs, the engine will exit PTO Mode and
will disable engine speed controls and protections, but will not cause the PTO
device to mechanically disengage from the powertrain. The PTO device will
only be mechanically disengaged by toggling the PTO On/Off Switch.
When all interlock conditions are removed, and the engine is receiving a signal that
the PTO is mechanically engaged, the engine will return to PTO Mode automatically
and the engine speed will return to the PTO Mode Minimum Engine Speed (N106). If
the Resume/Decel switch is the first switch pressed after entering PTO mode, the
engine speed will increase to the previously stored engine speed prior to exiting PTO
Mode. Otherwise, the engine speed can be increased with the Set/Accel switch.
PTO Mode Limits and Set Points
PTO Engine Speed Control has many programmable parameters that may be
adjusted to tailor PTO Mode performance to protect specific PTO-driven equipment
from damage or misuse.
When PTO switch is in the ON position, if the PTO device is mechanically engaged
and the interlock conditions are met, the engine enters PTO Mode automatically and
the engine speed will increase to the PTO Mode Minimum Engine Speed (N106).
Maximum Engine Speed using Switch Inputs (N086) may be programmed to prevent
the engine from exceeding a specified RPM while using the Set/Accel or
Resume/Decel switches to protect speed sensitive PTO-driven equipment from
damage due to overspeed while changing the target engine speed. Likewise,
Maximum Engine Speed using Pedal Input (N076) defines the maximum achievable
engine speed while using the accelerator pedal. These parameters can be
programmed independently, but Maximum Engine Speed using Pedal Input (N076)
must be greater than or equal to PTO Mode Minimum Engine Speed (N106). For
PTO Mode configured with remote controls, Maximum Engine Speed using Switch
Inputs (N086) should be programmed as the customer’s absolute maximum engine
speed.
The engine speed can be controlled by briefly pressing, or pressing and holding the
specified switches. With the PTO Mode configured for in-cab controls, these are the
cruise control Set/Accel and Resume/Decel switches. In the case of the remote PTO
control station mode, these switches are provided by the body builder and are
functionally equivalent to the in-cab control switches.
In PTO Mode, a throttle control input is available. When PTO Mode controls are
configured in the cab, the accelerator pedal is used for throttle control in PTO Mode.
For a remote PTO Mode control station, this would be supplied by the body builder
and may be a pedal, hand lever, or similar input device.
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 55 of 105
When in PTO Mode, pressing the Set/Accel switch momentarily will cause the engine
speed to increase by Engine Speed Increase w/ Set/Accel (In-Cab) (N083). For PTO
Mode configured with remote controls, Engine Speed Increase w/Set/Accel (Remote)
(N092) should be programmed instead. Each press of the Set/Accel switch will
increase engine speed by this increment, up to the Maximum Engine Speed using
Switch Inputs (N086).
When in PTO Mode, pressing the Resume/Decel switch momentarily will cause the
engine speed to decrease by Engine Speed Decrease w/ Res/Decel (In-Cab)
(N082). For PTO Mode configured with remote controls, Engine Speed Decrease
w/Res/Decel (Remote) (N090) should be programmed instead. Each press of the
Resume/Decel switch will decrease engine speed by this decrement, down to the
PTO Mode Minimum Engine Speed (N106).
When in PTO Mode, pressing and holding the Set/Accel switch will cause the engine
speed to increase at the rate of Engine Speed Ramp-Up w/Set/Accel (In-Cab)
(N085), until Maximum Engine Speed using Switch Inputs (N086) has been reached.
For PTO Mode configured with remote controls, Maximum Engine Speed using
Switch Inputs (N086) should be programmed as the customer’s absolute maximum
engine speed. Pressing and holding the Resume/Decel switch will cause the engine
speed to decrease at the rate of Engine Speed Ramp-down w/Res/Decel (In-Cab)
(N084), until the PTO Mode Minimum Engine Speed (N106) has been reached. For
PTO Mode configured with remote controls, Engine Speed Ramp-Up w/Set/Accel
(Remote) (N093) and Engine Speed Ramp-down w/Res/Decel (Remote) (N091)
should be programmed instead.
In the event the engine speed request is canceled either manually or by interlock and
the engine returns to PTO mode, the engine can be commanded to return to the
previously stored engine speed by pressing the Resume/Decel switch.
Two methods of engine speed control are available when using the Set/Accel switch,
and are selected using Engine Speed Capture or Engine Speed Preset w/ Set Switch
(N110):
Programmable Preset Engine Speed
Capture and Hold Current Engine Speed
When Engine Speed Capture or Engine Speed Preset w/ Set Switch (N110) is OFF,
pressing the Set/Accel switch immediately after the engine enters PTO Mode will
cause the engine speed will increase to PTO Mode Preset Engine Speed (In-Cab)
(N087).
When Engine Speed Capture or Engine Speed Preset w/ Set Switch (N110) is ON,
the programmable preset engine speed functionality is replaced with engine speed
capture functionality. In this configuration the Set/Accel switch may be pressed to
capture and maintain the current engine speed.
PTO Mode Maximum Engine Speed Rate of Change (N081) limits the maximum rate
at which the engine speed increases after a momentary operation of a PTO speed
control switch. This is intended to protect equipment that is sensitive to rapid
changes in engine speed. To utilize this limiter, Enable PTO Mode Engine Ramp
Rate Limiter (N109) must be enabled.
Maximum Engine Torque in PTO Mode (N077) may be used to limit the torque
produced by the engine while in PTO Mode. The torque value programmed is gross
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 56 of 105
torque produced; this includes the internal calculated torque from the engine. The
torque transmitted to the driveline will be lower than the programmed value.
When Remote PTO Engine Speed Control is configured with one preprogrammed
preset speed, pressing Remote Set momentarily after entering PTO mode will cause
the engine speed to increase to Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 1 (N055). This
functionality is not time dependent, and may be triggered at any time after entering
PTO Mode, provided the Remote Set switch is momentarily pressed before any other
input. If Remote Set is pressed a second time, or if any other switch is used first
upon entering PTO mode, the engine will revert to normal PTO operation.
When Remote PTO Speed Control is enabled with two preprogrammed preset
speeds, momentarily pressing Remote Set will cause the engine speed to increase
to Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 1 (N055). Pressing Remote Set again will
cause the engine speed to increase to Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 2 (N056).
Subsequent presses of the Remote Set switch will cause the engine speed to
increase beyond the second preset engine speed. Pressing and holding Remote Set
will cause the engine speed to steadily increase by the preprogrammed rate. The
Remote Resume switch functions normally. If it is desirable for the Remote Set
switch to always cause the engine to jump to a single predefined speed, both
Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 1 (N055) and Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed
2 (N056) may be programmed to the same value.
When programming remote preset engine speeds, ensure that Remote PTO Preset
Engine Speed 1 (N055) is greater than or equal to PTO Mode Minimum Engine
Speed (N106), and Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 2 (N056) is greater than or
equal to Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed 1 (N055) and less than or equal to
Maximum Engine Speed using Switch Inputs (N086). Figure 12.1 illustrates a
general overview of how specific engine speed parameters must be programmed to
prevent errors from occurring during the programming process within PACCAR
Vehicle Pro. The parameters shown may be programmed to the same value as their
neighboring parameters, but if they are programmed as separate values they must
not deviate from the displayed order from least to greatest value.
Figure 12.2 – PTO Engine Speed Limits and Set Points for Cab PTO
Note: The Remote PTO Preset Engine Speed feature requires the PTO
Preprogrammed Speed Setting functionality to be properly configured as One
Speed or Two Speeds in the CECU software.

5/3/2018 Page 57 of 105
Disable In-Cab Accelerator Pedal in Remote PTO (N307) may be enabled to cause
the the in-cab accelerator pedal to be disabled when operating the remote station
engine speed controls. The accelerator pedal mode can be configured to behave as
a linear engine speed pedal or a torque demand pedal using Accelerator Pedal Type
in PTO Mode (N073).
Note: When Remote Station controls are selected, enabling the linear engine
speed pedal option will cause the in-cab accelerator pedal to be disabled.
Remote PTO in Vehicle Parked State (N088) will specify if the engine, when
configured for a Remote PTO configuration, will require the vehicle to be considered
parked before the engine will enter PTO mode. This will require the parking brake to
be engaged while stationary, and automated manual and automatic transmissions
must not be in gear. If this parameter is not enabled, then the engine will require a
CAN signal to request PTO mode. This parameter should only be disabled for
remote applications configured for TSC1, and the body controller is providing a CAN-
based signal for PTO mode request.
DPF Regeneration in PTO Mode
Regen in PTO Mode allows the engine to perform DPF regenerations while PTO
Mode is active or while the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph, allowing the engine
to run continuously without the need to exit PTO Mode to perform a stationary DPF
regeneration. This functionality is not California Air Resources Board (CARB)
compliant for MX engines manufactured prior to June 2015.
It is important to carefully evaluate the application of the vehicle prior to selecting the
Regen in PTO Mode option. There exist certain limitations on when DPF
regeneration can occur, and it may be determined that Regen in PTO Mode is not
required, or will not be beneficial to the vehicle. Refer to Table 12.7 to determine if
the application is suitable for DPF Regeneration in PTO Mode.

Graph 12.1 indicates when DPF regeneration can occur. If the engine is operated in
the green region, a DPF regen will likely be successful and Regen in PTO Mode will
be beneficial to the vehicle. If the engine is operated in the blue region, a DPF regen
is not likely to be successful and the engine should not be programmed with the
Regen in PTO mode option. For additional information or ordering assistance, please
contact the Engine Support Center.
The engine may also be configured to engage the engine fan during active DPF
regenerations while in PTO mode. Engaging the fan can provide additional engine
load and exhuast heat, which may result in more effective DPF regeneration. The
engine fan can also provided additional cooling capacity during DPF regenerations.

15.0 Speed Control Management (SCM)
Overview
The Speed Control Management (SCM) feature is intended to help encourage fuel-
efficient shifting habits by reducing engine performance or restricting vehicle speed
at elevated engine speeds. Speed Control Management consists of two control
strategies: Progressive Shift (PGS) and Gear Down Protection (GDP), which may be
enabled separately or in combination.
PACCAR offers pre-approved and validated PGS and GDP settings for most manual
and automated-manual transmission powertrain configurations. Upon selection of at
least one of the SCM features, optimized shift points and the gears in which SCM
functionality will be active are identified by PACCAR and programmed into the
vehicle. These shift points are based on the customer’s powertrain configuration and
requested performance optimization goals.
Standard Feature
Without SCM
Feature Options
Progressive Shift
Gear Down Protection
Progressive Shift and Gear Down Protection
Progressive Shift (PGS)
The Progressive Shift module is typically used to encourage earlier shifts in lower
gears to improve fuel economy. By shifting earlier, the engine speed is reduced,
improving fuel economy. PGS is a “soft” RPM limit that restricts the rate of engine
acceleration when the engine speed is above a predefined engine speed limit. This
provides a balance between encouraging a driver to shift at lower engine speeds and
the driver’s needs to remain in a gear longer to execute a shift under heavy load
and/or on a hill. The driver’s perception of the restricted engine acceleration gives a
clear indication to execute an upshift. Full engine acceleration is restored after the
driver executes a shift where the engine speed falls below the customer-defined limit
in the next gear. Along with limiting engine acceleration, this function also provides a
visual notification to the driver to shift via the driver display.
The Progressive Shift module will provide up to two engine speed limits, allowing
customers to use a more aggressive limit in lower gears and a less aggressive limit
in higher gears. 10-speed and 13-speed transmissions will receive a two-step engine
speed limit, and 18-speed transmissions will receive a single step. The first and last
gear in which each progressive shift range is programmed ensuring it is properly
configured to the customer’s application and for the specified powertrain
components.
PGS Speed Step Count (PS25) specifies the number of distinct speed steps desired.
PGS First Limit Gear Min (PS26) indicates the first gear number in which PGS will
become active and PGS First Limit Gear Max (PS28) indicates the last gear the the
first PGS step will be active. PGS Second Engine Speed Limit (PS29) defines the
engine speed threshold for the shift advisor. PGS Highest Gear (PS30) specifies the
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 67 of 105
last gear that the second step of PGS will be active. While PGS is active, engine
speed will be “soft” limited to PGS First Engine Speed Limit (PS27) or PGS Second
Engine Speed Limit (PS29) depending on the currently selected gear and the
defined gear ranges for each step.
The gear down protection module offers a single programmable engine speed limit.
Selection of the GDP module will automatically set the engine speed limit at one or
two gears below top gear depending upon the combination of transmission, rear axle
ratio, and equipped tires. Changes to the factory settings can be made post-delivery
via a PRS file from the PACCAR Engine Support Center.
GDP First Gear Active (GP11) specifies the first selected gear in which the GDP
“hard” engine speed limiter will become active, while GDP Last Gear Active (GP13)
specifies the last selected gear that the GDP engine speed limiter will remain active.
GDP Active Gear Count (GP14) is the number of gears that GDP will restrict engine
speed to a maximum of GDP Engine Speed (GP12).
Application Guidelines

18.0 Driver Reward
Overview
The Driver Reward feature is designed to improve fuel economy by providing
incentive for drivers to meet customer-defined goals for fuel economy and idle time.
The vehicle speed limit may be lowered when goals are not met, or increased to
reward drivers for meeting the goals.
Note: The Driver Reward feature is only available vehicles equipped with
PACCAR MX engines manufactured after June 2015, and is not compatible
with vehicles equipped with early model year 2015 or prior engines.
Standard Feature
Without Driver Reward
Feature Options
Fuel Economy Evaluation
Idle Time Evaluation
The Driver Reward feature provides the driver with increased vehicle speed for
meeting customer-defined fuel consumption and idle time goals. The customer has
the option of evaluating driver performance based on Fuel Economy, Idle Time
Percentage, or both. Driver Reward Offset Mode (N219) may also be configured to
apply vehicle speed rewards to the cruise control vehicle speed limit, the accelerator
pedal vehicle speed limit, or both.
The Fuel Economy option allows the engine to monitor and compare actual fuel
economy to Fuel Efficiency Expected Threshold (N232), which is the threshold at
which neither a reward nor penalty will be imposed on the driver. The Driver Reward
Maximum Bonus (N224) will be applied if the measured fuel economy is greater than
or equal to Fuel Efficiency Bonus Threshold (N231). The Driver Reward Maximum
Penalty (N227) will be applied if the measured fuel economy is less than or equal to
Fuel Efficiency Penalty Threshold (N233). As the driver improves the measured fuel
economy, the maximum vehicle speed will increase with the driver’s performance,
until the Driver Reward Maximum Bonus (N224) has been reached. As the driver
decreases the measured fuel economy, the vehicle speed penalty will gradually
increase with the driver’s performance, until the Driver Reward Maximum Penalty
(N227) has been reached.
The Percent Idle Time option allows the engine to monitor the percentage of engine
idle time and compare it to Idle Time Expected Threshold (N236), which is the
threshold at which neither a reward nor penalty will be imposed on the driver. The
Driver Reward Maximum Bonus (N224) will be applied if the recorded percentage of
idle time is less than or equal to Idle Time Bonus Threshold (N235). The Driver
Reward Maximum Penalty (N227) will be applied if the recorded percentage of idle
time is greater than or equal to Idle Time Penalty Threshold (N237). As the driver
decreases the recorded percentage of idle time, the maximum vehicle speed will
increase until the Driver Reward Maximum Bonus (N224) has been reached. As the
driver decreases the recorded percentage of idle time, the vehicle speed penalty will
gradually increase until the Driver Reward Maximum Penalty (N227) has been
reached.
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 79 of 105
If Fuel Economy and Percent Idle Time are both enabled, the Driver Reward
performance criteria are evaluated individually and the overall vehicle speed bonus
or penalty will be determined from the lowest individual bonus or penalty.
The following figures may help to illustrate how the Driver Reward feature functions
under different configurations and scenarios.
On Greenhouse Gas (GHG) compliant vehicles, GHG Maximum Speed Limit (N170)
will limit the overall maximum speed of the vehicle, until the GHG expiration mileage
has been exceeded. The GHG expiration mileage is available in the chassis
information within PVP, and may not be changed. For vehicles which have exceeded
the GHG expiration mileage, the GHG Maximum Speed Limit (N170) will be ignored.
In order to provide a speed bonus on vehicles subject to the GHG vehicle speed
limiter, the Maximum Accelerator Pedal Vehicle Speed (N162) or Maximum Cruise
Control Target Speed (N006) must be lower than GHG Maximum Speed Limit
(N170).
The six parameters which control the bonus, expected, and penalty thresholds of fuel
economy and idle time evaluations are configurable using ONLY the PVP interface,
and the default values listed in Programmable Parameters will be applied
automatically during the ordering process. As the engine progresses in mileage or
changes duty-cycles, these parameters may be altered to more appropriately fit the
engine’s expected behavior.

20.0 Manual HC Desorb
Overview
HC Desorb functionality is necessary to protect the aftertreatment from damage after
extended idling. Idling a truck results in low exhaust temperatures and low exhaust
flows, which promotes unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust to absorb onto catalysts
in the aftertreatment. Extended idling presents a risk for aftertreatment damage
because if the aftertreatment catalysts and adsorbed hydrocarbons are brought to
high enough temperatures (by driving the truck) after extended idling, there is a risk of
uncontrolled temperature increase and thermal damage to the aftertreatment
catalysts. After the truck has idled for long enough, there will be enough hydrocarbons
accumulated that is not safe to drive the truck and an HC Desorb will be required. HC
Desorb functionality protects the aftertreatment using controlled exhaust temperature
increase to remove accumulated hydrocarbons in a slow and controlled manner,
allowing the truck to be safely driven after completion.
A Manual HC desorb request, along with a “DO NOT DRIVE” notification, will be
displayed on the dash after the truck has idled long enough that a dangerous amount
of hydrocarbons have accumulated and the truck is NOT safe to drive. At this point, a
Manual HC Desorb must be fully completed to safely remove accumulated
hydrocarbons before the truck can be driven. Failure to comply will result in a P3880
fault and risk of aftertreatment damage.
Manual HC Desorbs are performed by the driver by pressing the regen switch when
the request is displayed on the highline Drivers must complete a Manual HC Desorb
before driving the vehicle if requested. As long as there is a “DO NOT DRIVE”
notification, do not drive the truck.

21.0 Automatic HC Desorb
Overview
Automatic HC Desorb (N318) functionality provides the truck with the ability to
perform an HC Desorb (hydrocarbon desorption) automatically during extended
idling. This feature is fully integrated into the aftertreatment system and will perform
an HC Desorb when the truck is idling, conditions are met, and without any driver
inputs, potentially eliminating the need for a Manual HC Desorb.
Prior to Auto HC Desorb functionality, customers had to perform a Manual HC
Desorb before driving after idling for an extended amount of time.
Auto HC Desorb functions by periodically increasing engine speed and exhaust
temperatures to maintain a low level of HC accumulation in the aftertreatment during
extended idle. This operation will maintain a level of accumulated hydrocarbons so
that the truck is always safe to be driven and there is minimal risk of aftertreatment
damage. Drivers may experience unexpected changes in engine speed when Auto
Desorbs occur, sometimes without notification depending on NAMUX version. When
the Auto Desorb has completed, engine speed will return to the previous set speed.
Standard Feature
With Auto HC Desorb
Enabling Auto HC Desorb allows the truck to perform a hydrocarbon desorption
automatically during extended idling. This reduces the likelihood of the driver having
to perform a Manual HC Desorb after extended idling.

Additional Information
Even with Auto HC Desorb enabled, Manual HC Desorb functionality is still available.
If Auto HC Desorbs are not successful or are aborted by the user, it is possible that a
Manual HC Desorb will be requested on the dash and a driver must complete the
Manual HC Desorb before driving. Occurrences of Auto HC Desorb or Manual HC
Desorb are normal and do not indicate any issues with the truck.
If an Auto HC Desorb is occurring, the driver is able to cancel the Auto HC Desorb by
pressing the brake pedal and drive the truck. As long as there is a “DO NOT DRIVE”
notification, do not drive the truck.
If an Auto HC Desorb is aborted by the user (for example, by pressing the service
brake), another Auto HC Desorb will restart 10 minutes later if all enable conditions
are met again. If Auto HC Desorbs are not desired by the customer, they can be
inhibited by using the regen inhibit switch or disabled via PVP. If the regen inhibit
switch is used, the driver must remember to un-inhibit the regen switch before starting
to drive.
Depending on NAMUX version and software level, some vehicles may display a
notification of a pending Auto HC Desorb and during an active Auto HC Desorb. If
Auto HC Desorb notifications are available, a 2-minute countdown will be initiated
prior to the Auto HC Desorb to alert the driver an Auto HC Desorb is being initiated.
PEC017
5/3/2018 Page 88 of 105
All Manual HC Desorb and Auto HC Desorb notifications refer to HC Desorb as a
“Regeneration” or “Regen”.
If PTO is active, Auto HC Desorbs may occur but will not change engine speed.
Engine speed needs to be greater than 900 rpm for Auto HC Desorbs to be enabled
with PTO active.
HC Desorb differs from DPF Regenerations in that there is no additional fuel dosing
during an HC Desorb. As a result, tailpipe temperatures will remain below 500 °F (260
°C).
