Check and verification of encoder and flywheel sensor adjustment.

1) Turn the engine to exactly TDC 1.


2) Go to encoder arrangement and by hand try to twist the encoder A clock wise/anti clock
wise. The LED on the TSA A should flash when twisting the encoder. (NO HARD FORCE
TO BE APPLIED) If LED is flashing continue to pk 3.
3) Turn engine to exactly 45 degrees after TDC 1.
4) Go to encoder arrangement and by hand try to twist the encoder B clock wise/anti clock
wise. The LED on the TSA B should flash when twisting the encoder. (NO HARD FORCE
TO BE APPLIED) If LED is flashing continue to pk5.
5) Go to the flywheel sensor and remove the junction box cover in order to see the LED on the
flywheel sensor.
6) Turn the engine to exactly 90 degrees after TDC 1. The LED on the flywheel sensor must
go on at exactly 90 degrees. If not readjustment is required. Furthermore please verify the
clearance between the half ring and the sensor itself. Clearance must be between 2-3 mm.

If any adjustment of the encoders has been carried out it is necessary to take new 0-diagrams with
the PMI system and update the tacho parameters in ECS.

Taking 0-diagram and entering the correct tacho parameter into ECS.

Operate the engine at 50% load with increased limiter and slow down cancel activated.

Connect the PMI controller box to the PMI junction box on the engine and open the PMI program.

1) Press the “ACCESS” bottom in the


lower right corner
2) A virtual keyboard will appear
3) Type the Chief password
BADIOT and press the chief bottom
4) The icon in the lower right corner will
change
5) Go to the MOP screen
Engine>Chief limiters

Select Cyl 1

Disable fuel injection on this unit by


decreasing the “Chief index limit”
stepwise until 0, using the “Arrow
down” and “Apply”

(30-40% steps is acceptable)


6) Wait until the exhaust gas temperature
is below 200 degress before measuring
with the PMI system. When completed
return to MOP
7) Enable the fuel injection again by
increasing the “Chief index limit”
stepwise until 110 using the “Arrow up”
and “Apply”

Repeat step 5 to 7 on all units.

8) When completed the measurement on


all units press ESC on the PMI PC
keyboard in order to save the
measurement.

Normally the measurement will be save


in the below format:
m121022_210225
m:year:month:date_hr:min:sec

9) In the PMi program go to:


Tools>TDC values

10) Locate the file which contains the


measurements just taken.

The below window will appear.


11) Note down the value
Tacho set A: Trig offset AH (DEG)

(In this case 0.15)


The value can also be negative (-)

12) Go to MOP and locate the tap:


Maintenance>Function test>Tacho

Press “Start”

The PMI 0-diagram has already been


taken so press “Done”

13) If the rpm is high enough, the system


will measure and collect the value for
“delta tacho b”.

Press “Accept”

14) Using the “Arrow up” and “Arrow


down” enter the value of
“Tacho set A: Trig offset AH (DEG)”
found at 11) and press “Enter”

Please note that the value can also be


negative (-)
15) When the adjustment is completed the
value for
“Tacho Alignment Deviation” should
be close to zero (0)

16) Entering new tacho values is now


completed.
