289 * None 0–3 Engine Protection Buzzer: Controls the enabling of this buzzer, and the type of sound:
continuous buzzing (type 1), steady pulsing (type 2), or programmable pulsing (type 3). This
buzzer sounds when the engine temperature is too high.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero). The buzzer function is disabled (it does not sound).
1 Enter "1." The buzzer sounds continuously until the problem is corrected.
2 Enter "2." The buzzer pulses steadily until the problem is corrected.
3 Enter "3." The buzzer pulses according to a programmed pattern until the problem is corrected.

NOTE: To change the programmable pulsing function, see parm #295. This parameter is identical
to parm #103, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
290 * None 0–3 Low Air Buzzer: Controls the enabling of this buzzer, and the type of sound. This buzzer sounds
when the air pressure drops below the minimum.
For programming instructions, see parm #289.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #104, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
291 None 0–3 HVAC Input Buzzer: Controls the enabling of this buzzer, and how it sounds: continuous buzzing,
steady pulsing, or programmable pulsing. This buzzer sounds when either the Recirc Mode
Engaged (parm #50) or Provide Fresh Air (parm #51) alert screens come on.
For programming instructions, see parm #289.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #110, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
292 * None 0–3 Buzzer Enable II: Controls the enabling of this buzzer, and the type of sound. This is an optional
buzzer function.
For programming instructions, see parm #289.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #111, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
293 * Min 0–15 Turn Signal Warning Activation Time: Controls how long the turn signals have to remain ON
before the buzzer warning activates and the dash driver display shows the "Warning–Turn Signal
ON" screen.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero). The warning does not activate (it does not come on at all).
1–15 Enter any number between "1" and "15." The warning activates, but only after that number of
minutes has elapsed.
NOTE: If both parm #293, turn signal activation time, and parm #294, turn signal activation
distance, are turned on, the turn signal warning is activated by whichever condition becomes
active first. This parameter is identical to parm #113, but repeated for use of the right
microprocessor.

turn signals ON before the buzzer warning activates and the dash driver display shows the
"Warning–Turn Signal ON" screen.

0=Off Enter "0" (zero). The warning does not activate (it does not come on at all).
1–15 Enter any number between "1" and "15." The warning activates, but only after the vehicle has
traveled one-tenth that number of miles. For example, if "5" is entered, the turn signal warning
activates after the vehicle has traveled 0.5 (one-half) mile.
NOTE: If both parm #293, turn signal activation time, and parm #294, turn signal activation
distance, are turned on, the turn signal warning is activated by whichever condition becomes
active first. This parameter is identical to parm #114, but repeated for use of the right
microprocessor.
295 Sec 0–15 Number of Seconds ON for Type 3 Buzzer Pulsed: Controls the number of seconds each
buzzer pulse lasts when the type 3 buzzer.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero). The type 3 (programmable) buzzer function is disabled (this does not affect the
other two types of buzzer function).
1–15 Enter any number between "1" and "15." The buzzer remains ON for that number of seconds
during each pulse.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #115, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
296 * None 0 or ABS: Enables the ICU to look for an antilock brake system installed on the vehicle and
136 responding to the data link.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero) if no antilock brake system is installed.
136 Enter "136" if an antilock brake system is installed.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #190, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
297 * None 0 or ECAS: Enables the ICU to look for an electronic suspension system installed on the vehicle and
150 responding to the data link.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero) if no electronic suspension is installed.
150 Enter "150" if an electronic suspension is installed.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #191, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
298 * None 0 or ACPU: Enables the ICU to look for an air conditioning protection unit installed on the vehicle and
190 responding to the data link.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero) if no air conditioning protection unit is installed.
190 Enter "190" if an air conditioning protection unit is installed.
NOTE: This parameter is identical to parm #192, but repeated for use of the right microprocessor.
299 * None 0 or Transmission: Enables the ICU to look for an electronic transmission installed on the vehicle and
130 responding to the data link.
0=Off Enter "0" (zero) if no electronic transmission is installed.
130 Enter "130" if an electronic transmission is installed.
