CAT MESSENGER NOW OFFERED ON PETE 387
Peterbilt
Cat Messenger is now available for Peterbilt’s Model 387, providing real-time engine performance and fuel economy data to help customers better manage operating costs, provide incentives
for drivers, and expedite servicing. The Caterpillar product monitors various vehicle systems to record and analyze numerous data, such as fuel economy by trip or life of the vehicle, idle time, average speed, oil pressure, plus fuel, coolant and ambient air temperatures. Information is displayed via an in-dash LCD monitor. Cat Messenger can also be programmed to give maintenance-due reminders based on date or mileage. There are real-time diagnostic features as well and the device will display engine fault codes and descriptions to help expedite troubleshooting and servicing.
It can also be equipped with an optional theft-deterrent feature requiring the operator to enter an access code before the engine can be started. Cat Messenger is also available on Cat-equipped Peterbilt Models 379, 379X, 385, 378, and 357.
