In this brief article we\u2019ll go over what\u2019s new, what\u2019s changed, and what to expect when updating to Cummins Insite 8.7<\/a>.<\/p>\n

New Diagnostic Tests<\/strong><\/p>\n

* Aftertreatment Diesel Exhaust Fluid Doser Accuracy Test
\n* Performs a check of the complete dosing system by commanding the doser to dose at a fixed rate for a fixed amount of time.<\/p>\n

New Advanced ECM Data<\/strong><\/p>\n

* Engine Protection Main Bearing Temperature
\n* Provides the ability to de-rate torque or speed (RPM) to prevent damage when the temperature of any of the main bearings surge above its threshold. A record of the last five speed and\/or torque de-rate events and information about the configuration of the de-rates and shutdowns is maintained.
\n* Engine Protection Intake Manifold Temperature
\n* Provides the ability to de-rate speed or torque and shutdown the engine to prevent damage when an extreme condition is detected. A record of the last five speed and\/or torque de-rate events and information about the configuration of the de-rates and shutdowns is maintained.
\n* Engine Protection ECM Internal Temperature
\n* Provides capability to initiate time-based torque de-rates and time-based torque shutdowns when internal temperature of ECM goes above its threshold. A record of the last five speed and\/or torque de-rate events and information about the configuration of the de-rates and shutdowns is maintained.
\n* Engine Protection High Temperature Coolant Level Low
\n* Provides ability to de-rate torque and shutdown the engine to prevent damage. A record of the last five speed and\/or torque de-rate events and information about the configuration of the de-rates and shutdowns is maintained.<\/p>\n

New Features and Parameters<\/strong><\/p>\n

* Door Open Switch Multiplexing
\n* Allows configuration to use switch input and set source address via the datalink instead of a physical ECM input.
\n* Brake Vacuum Low Warning Signal
\n* Allows configuration to use switch input and set source address via the datalink instead of a physical ECM input.
\n* Aftertreatment Diesel Exhaust Fluid Doser Air Pressure Sensor Rationality
\n* Provides the ability to monitor the pressure rationality of air pressure sensor in DEF dosing system.
\n* Aftertreatment Diesel Exhaust Fluid Doser Pressure Sensor Rationality
\n* Provides the ability to monitor the pressure rationality of DEF pressure sensor in DEF dosing system.
\n* OEM Load Based Control
\n* Allows configuration of either a single speed breakpoint setup or a dual speed breakpoints setup which is designed to keep the engine from operating in regions that are not beneficial to engine performance.
\n* DCDC Low Voltage Output
\n* Provides the ability for the system to accurately compensate various low voltage outputs.
\n* Hybrid System Protection Override Switch Multiplexing
\n* Allows configuration to use switch input and set source address via the datalink instead of a physical ECM input.
\n* Momentary Start Switch Multiplexing
\n* Allows configuration to use switch input and set source address via the datalink instead of a physical ECM input.
\n* Oil Quality Sensor
\n* Provides several monitors for data provided by the oil quality sensor.<\/p>\n

New Engine Coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n

Coverage for the following engines have been added in Cummins Insite 8.7:<\/p>\n

* B3.9 CM2620 B171C
\n* B6.7 CM2670 EUVI
\n* F4.0 CM2620 NSVI
\n* QSB6.7 CM2450 KT4
\n* QSL8.9 CM2450 KT4
\n* QSZ14 CM2670 CSIV<\/p>\n

Operating System Compatibility<\/strong><\/p>\n

By now, most shops are running Windows 10, but there are a still a decent amount of Windows 7 computers floating around out there.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re still using a Windows 7 computer, it\u2019s time to either upgrade your existing computer to Windows 10 or
\nreplace it with a Windows 10 computer. Cummins Insite 8.7 will not work on Windows 7 operating system.<\/p>\n

Cummins Insite 8.7 is only compatible with the following operating systems:<\/p>\n

Windows 8.1 32-bit and 64-bit (NOT RECOMMENDED)
\nWindows 10 32-bit and 64-bit
\nRecommended System Requirements<\/p>\n

The following list is the recommended system requirements for Insite 8.7.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cummins Insite has a reputation of being a RAM heavy program, meaning the more RAM you have, the better you\u2019ll be able to run it. In order for Insite to open quickly, it\u2019s strongly recommended to use 16GB of RAM.
\nCOMPONENT REQUIREMENTS
\nOperating System: Windows 10 64-bit
\nProcessor: 2.5 GHz or greater Quad Core (Intel or AMD)
\nRAM Memory: 8 GB
\nHard Drive: 6 GB or greater available
\nMedia Device: Dual Layer \u2013 Double Density DVD-ROM (for use with INCAL DVDs)
\nDisplay Resolution: 1920 x 1080
\nOther Software: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.1 or later
\nAdobe Acrobat Reader v9.0 or later
\nInternet: High-Speed Broadband
\nAvailable Ports: 2x USB 3.0<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve added some additional notes to help you when using your Cummins Insite 8.7:<\/strong>
\nConnection Errors in Insite 8.7<\/p>\n

As with just about any piece of software out there, error messages can be common. The following error messages are related to connection issues. See each explanation for a better understanding:<\/p>\n

Error 5200: Indicates communication loss between computer and the datalink adapter.
\nError 5201: Indicates communication loss between the datalink adapter and the ECM.
\nError 5202: Indicates no communication could be established between the datalink adapter and the computer.
\nError 5204: Indicates no communication could be established between the datalink adapter and the ECM.<\/p>\n

If the \u201cAuto Configure\u201d and\/or \u201cDatalink Adapter Connection Test\u201d do not find the
\nadapter when connected, manually configure the Datalink adapter connection.<\/p>\n

Calibrations<\/strong><\/p>\n

CAUTION: Please verify that the Calibration you select to download to an ECM is appropriate for that specific ECM. Permanent damage could occur if incorrect calibrations are used.<\/p>\n

Automotive applications will have a default setting of \u201cON\u201d for the Save and Restore option in the Calibration Download dialog.<\/p>\n

Industrial applications will have a Default Setting of \u201cOFF\u201d for the Save and Restore option in the Calibration Download dialog.<\/p>\n

When performing a Calibration Download, the \u201cSave and Restore\u201d option may be grayed
\nout for some applications.<\/p>\n

To decrease calibration download times, please insure that all applications other than INSITE are closed. Always use the J1939 protocol and engine connector when available. Computers with less than the minimum recommended hardware requirements will have an extended Calibration Download time.<\/p>\n

Screen savers and suspend modes should be disabled.
\nAutodetect will not initially work for ISM, Signature\/ISX, QST30<\/p>\n

Work Around for Autodetect: Download ECM calibration using ECM Code calibration to ECM. Autodetect should function correctly after calibration transfer is completed. When using the June 2019 or older INCAL DVDs, calibrations will not show up for ISM, Signature\/ISX, QST30<\/p>\n

Work Around for INCAL DVD users: Consult QuickServe Online (QSOL) and try to find the correct ECM calibration in the QSOL data plate. Then, download the correct ECM calibration using the ECM code search feature in INSITE.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
