The following information describes the service program code: 288224 (ATTACH)
This service program allows the operator to configure the attachment code for the Large Hydraulic Excavators. The Attachment Code is the software version of the Harness Code. The harness code is a hard wired configuration of jumper wires that ground certain circuits in a harness code plug. The VIMS broadcasts the attachment code via the AVS data link to other electronic control modules on the machine that need this code.
Note: Applicable attachment codes are listed on the back of machine Electrical Schematic and in the Operations and Maintenance Manual.
Note: VIMSpc must be connected and communicating with the machine in order to change the 288224 (ATTACH) code.
After "ATTACH" is entered from the keypad, the operator presses the "OK" key. The message center will show:

If the same code is entered again, this code will be accepted as the new attachment code. If the same code is not entered at the second prompt, the new attachment code will not be accepted. The old attachment code remains valid. A new attachment code will not be accepted, if an invalid code is entered at either prompt. The old attachment code remains valid. If the "OK" key was pressed at either prompt prior to entering a number, the old attachment code remains valid.
Note: The Machine Status (MSTAT) (67828) code can be used to view the present, active attachment code.
