 Confidential and Proprietary, Property of OEM Data Delivery a Division of OEM Controls, Inc.| Section 2 1  Section 1 Overview of the ST-550  This document will serve the user of this equipment as a Manual of Operations and basic troubleshooting guide, thereby allowing for the proper installation and use of the ST-550 Service Tracker. This section provides an overview of the ST-550 Service Tracker System.          Features  Radio Terminal Downloader    Travel logs are logged every (6) minutes while the vehicle is in motion  Work/Idle/Run/Count and Duration logs recorded.  Cumulative Machine Hours (CMH) compiled.  7 User Programmable Service Alerts.  Power conservation (Sleep State). The Service Tracker (ST-550) is a radio device that compiles and stores work/ idle, run and maintenance logs; connectivity is accomplished in RS232 and USB format via a secure radio link. The ST-550 does not support IrDA communication.  In the operation mode, an ST-550 mounted on the dash board or on the top of the vehicle, has been logging in CMH (Cumulative Machine Hours), and compiling maintenance service times on the vehicle. Each maintenance procedure is assigned a Service Tracker number (up to seven different procedures can be tracked). The maintenance issues are displayed as service alerts. Each service alert has a designated identifier number (one through seven) that display on the “window eye” of the ST-550. The number indicates that a particular maintenance procedure should be completed. When the service alert is satisfied the counter is reset with any supporting PDA (Personal Data Assistant).  Retrieving the ST-550 data, such as the profile, service alerts, work/ idle/ run/ count/duration logs is accomplished with a supporting PDA, or by using the OEM Data Delivery manufactured mobile CPU called GoPOD. The GoPOD is configured with 512 MB Memory, 1 GB CF, Windows XP Embedded for ease of use. The housing is designed to be installed on a lube or fuel truck, low boy truck, mechanics’ truck or supervisor’s vehicle. The GoPOD is equipped with a GPS antenna, and a radio antenna. Information is collected passively, from the ST-550 and “hands-free”. GPS coordinates are automatically stamped into the record as hourly data is collected. Information is collected via drive-by, within a range of 300 ft. line of site, and transmitted via secure radio link. Figure 1.- ST-550  Service Tracker
 Contents -STIB 22549 Rev. A  2 Section 2 | Overview and Technical Specifications   Data is then downloaded into a web report each night, and made available on a password-protected website. Information easily integrates with any major back office management system. There is never an interruption of equipment operation. A supporting type PDA will also allow the user to update (modify) the real time clock, as well as capturing the Work/Idle/Run, Count/Duration logs. For systems without the GoPOD CPU: Use an external GPS antenna, if available, in the proximity of the communication between the (ST-550) and the servicing equipment, to gather location information.  When used with the OEM Data delivery Vibration Sensor, the service tracker can differentiate the subtle differences in engine vibration, between run/work and idle, and compile a report, for the user, on where fuel consumption occurs verses work output.

 8 Section 2 | Installation Procedures  Section 2 Installation Procedures How to… Correctly install the ST-550 (Radio Service Tracker) with the Engine Vibration Sensor and Battery Harness.   Before Installing:   RRecord Record the ST-550 SERIAL NUMBER, located on the side of the Service Tracker, and the MACHINE NUMBER that you are installing the Service Tracker on, for reference purposes. This information must be reported back to OEM Data Delivery for tracking purposes. Installing the ST-550 1. Turn off the engine and the master switch.  2. Visualize how to run the wires from the battery box and the engine to the ST-550 Service Tracker. Not recommended: Mounting the ST-550 in an enclosed environment such as a battery box, metal engine bays, and closed cabs.  3. Mount the ST-550 on a flat surface with the internal antenna pointed upward and secure   the enclosure using (4) four self- tapping screws. 4. Once the ST-550 is mounted, drill a hole (3) three inches below the ST-550, and (15/16 inches) in diameter. 5. Pull the pigtail harness from the battery and vibration sensor through this hole. This will protect the harness from the elements and road hazards. 6. Plug the connector (J1) from the pigtail STWH/200A into the ST-550 and push the two cables through the 15/16 inch drilled hole.   Check the machine frame voltage (e.g. positive or negative ground). The ST-550 operates with a negative ground.   Installing the ST-550 harness: Be aware of moving parts, provide adequate slack for wires around moving parts, then cable tie all wiring. Do not have unsecured or hanging wires.   When mounting the Service Tracker, beware of compartments that open; Example: Where a radiator assembly lifts up, as in a bob cat or other skid steers. Choosing a secure location will prevent damaging the ST-900.    Before drilling check for obstructions and sensitive equipment (e.g. radiators, hydraulic tanks, fuse boxes etc.).

Connect the ring terminal “GREEN” wire to a chassis ground.  (e.g., frame, body, engine or frame side of master switch). NOTE: ST-550’s with a Vibration Sensor option will Not have a chassis ground ring terminal. The Battery Cable 1. Connect the battery harness ring terminal “RED” wire to the battery positive 12VDC or 24VDC post. 2.  Connect the battery harness ring terminal “BLACK” wire to the ground post on the battery.  3. Run the battery cable back to the ST-550 and connect it to the pigtail (supplied by OEM, See Figure 5).  4. Put a 3 or 5 Amp Fuse (supplied by OEM) in the fuse holder and close the cap. The window eye  light should be blinking on the ST-550. 5. The ST-550 now has power.             Red Wire 6. Only if you’re Not using a Vibration Sensor, you will need to connect the Yellow wire to a positive +12v or +24v power source that ONLY has power while the machine is running (use Alternator “R” DC terminal, to get both work and idle reading inputs if available). OEM recommends use of the Vibration Sensor (ST-103) an OEM Controls, Inc. product, for accuracy in reading work and idle times and for ease of installation. Only if you’re Not using a Vibration Sensor, You will need at least 7.0 volts “Motor Run” voltage when you connect to the Alternator with the yellow wire. If the voltage source is adequate (Service Tracker will start counting hours). 7. Secure the harness using cable-ties, leaving adequate slack in the wires.  Plug the drilled hole with the rubber grommet attached to the harness.   Grommet
 Contents -STIB 22549 Rev. A  10 Section 2 | Installation Procedures    Mobile radios and high power AC equipment or transmission lines are potential sources of interference. If interference is a problem a shielded cable which is connected to chassis ground is advised. Contact OEM Data Delivery for further assistance. Installing the Vibration Sensor Warning: This installation should not be attempted while the engine is running. 1. Find a smooth surface on the engine block away from any excessive heat source. The vibration sensor must be securely mounted perpendicular to the engine crankshaft, or parallel to the belts. A good location is the alternator bracket or some other belt-driven accessory bracket. Best results will be obtained when the two mounting holes sit on a horizontal plane. The sensor must be mounted on the engine side of the engine mounts (not on the chassis or frame). 2. Secure the Vibration Sensor using cable-ties. 3.  Run the Vibration Sensor cable back to the ST-550, and plug the supplied connector into the harness of the ST-550. (See Item 2 in Figure 5).  4. Using Ty-wraps secure the harness, giving adequate slack in the wires. Be sure to keep the wires away from exhausts and moving parts. Do not block filters or routinely serviced parts.   Calibrating the ST-550 Step 1:   Start the engine and keep it idling. Once the engine is warmed: Step 2:   Press & Hold the  Wake  button on Service Tracker. (10 to 15 seconds).  “Window Box Eye” display will cycle from       to         to  Note:  If        is not visible on the display during calibration, check the wire connections to the Vibration Sensor or to the vehicle alternator and ground.  Otherwise: Once the      disappears, two (2)     bars should display in the “Window Box Eye”.
