Customer Interface Box
Installation
Mechanical Installation
Location
The Customer Interface Box, CIB, is located in the engine
room. This is due to the number of cables and wires that are
required from the engine sensors in order to reduce electrical
noise levels which might else result from long cable stretches.
The CIB should be mounted at about eye level and the user
should have easy access to all buttons on the box.
The CIB may be mounted on the engines supporting structure
by the provided vibration isolators. The isolators should be
used either between the structure and the engine, or between
the structure and the CIB. The CIB should not be mounted
directly onto the engine.
The CIB should be mounted so that easy access to the cable
connections inside the box is ensured.

Electrical Connections
General
To protect against EMI noise, we recommend that all cables be
shielded.
NOTE: The shield of all cables shall be connected to ground,
NOT to 0V.
Some cables shall be kept separate from other signals as much
as possible for instance the pickup signal. Others can be in a
shielded multi-cable.

Grounding
In marine installations, ground and 0V should not be connected
together. In a ship installation, the hull is the ground whereas
the battery minus pole is the 0V.
NOTE: Please keep ground and 0V separated!
In the DCU system, +24V and 0V are filtered to ground using
special filter components. This is done to reduce noise in the
system. If ground and 0V is connected together, these filters do
not work properly.
NOTE: Make a ground connection to the grounding bar in the
lower right corner of the CIB. Keep this wire as short as
possible, and at least 1.5mm2.

C Command Elite Series Installation Manual Customer Interface Box Installation 9


Bulletin 4082079 Rev. 11/09
Power Supplies
The DCU is designed to run on 24VDC supply voltage.
NOTE: Make sure the primary supply power is sourced directly
from the battery, NOT from the engine starter, as the voltage
drop over the latter is significantly higher.

Power Supply Requirements


Valid full functionality range: 18-32VDC.
Minimum capacity: 15A
NOTE: There are fixed low battery voltage alarm setpoints. For
the primary supply, these are at 21V and 18V. For the
Secondary supply, the setpoint is at 20V.
All alarms are delayed 30 seconds.
Use a twisted pair wire to minimize the effect of noise on the
supply cables. Connect the cables straight from the battery (and
NOT the starter engine) and keep the cable as short as
possible.
Use at least 2.5mm2 wires for the power supply.

Supply Selection
The CIB internal circuitry is sourced from either the primary OR
the secondary supply.
The primary supply has priority over the secondary supply. If
the primary supply voltage drops below 18V, the CIB will
immediately switch over and use the secondary supply, but only
if the secondary supply is above 20V.
The primary supply will be selected over the secondary supply
when the primary supply voltage again rises above 18V. There
is a two second delay when switching from secondary to
primary supply.
The CIB will run equally well with full functionality on the
secondary supply.
All voltage levels are +/- 5%.

Power Supply Low Alarms


The active supply (the supply currently feeding the CIB) is
monitored. This is normally the primary supply.
If the supply falls below 21V+30sec, this is indicated
with an amber alarm.
If the supply falls below 18V+30sec, this is indicated
with a red alarm.

removed from the CIB. The termination resistor must then be
re-installed in the last device in the CAN network.

C Command Elite Series Installation Manual Customer Interface Box Installation 13


Bulletin 4082079 Rev. 11/09
If more than one Cummins remote display panel is installed, the
J1939 bus is routed from the first display panel to the next
display panel, and so on. The termination resistor must be
placed on the last display panel in the series. (If no other
monitoring devices are present)
SAE recommends that the Datalink length should not exceed
40m (125ft) for full system communication. Cummins allows
Datalink lengths of up to 100m (300 ft) to be used for monitoring
only.
NOTE: For Datalink lengths greater than 40m, steps must be
taken to minimize the effects of electronic interference. (I.e.
Routing cables away from high EMI sources) Communication
loss may occur if areas of high interference are ignored.

C Command Elite/Elite Plus CIB Datalink Routing

All Datalink devices and adapters must share a common 0V.


Where devices or adapters have separate power sources, the
grounds must be connected such that the ECM and the
device/adapter share the same 0V potential.

Power Supply Inputs [91-94]
The CIB is designed to accept two independent power supply
inputs: Primary Power Supply and Secondary Power Supply.
The Primary Power Supply input is the default power supply
and is required to be connected on every installation. The
Secondary Power Supply input is provided for a secondary
power supply that the CIB can switch to in the event of a Main
Power Supply failure.

The CLU receives each of these inputs via two 16A circuit
breakers. From there the CLU is responsible for determining
the appropriate power source and distributes it out to the panel
system via two power outputs. The following is a description of
the assignments of each of the power outputs

Output 1:
a) ECM Power. No circuit breaker required, the
(ECM is protected by fuses in the engine wiring
harness.
b) CIB/CLU: One 6A circuit breaker for CIB and CLU
power.
c) ERP/RP: One 6A circuit breaker for ERP and RP
power.
Output 2:

Bulletin 4082079 Rev. 11/09
Remote Coolant Level Sensor Input [142-144]
Terminals have been provided for input of a Coolant Level
signal from a vessel mounted sensor. This input is used
primarily for Keel Cooled applications where the Coolant Level
Sensor connector on the engine harness is not long enough to
reach a remote mounted expansion tank.
The CIB includes a 16k ohm jumper to prevent fault code when
no Sensor is connected. The jumper is provided in the CIB but
not installed. This is done so that in the event no coolant level
switch installed, the panel system will indicate that condition
with a fault code. If no switch is required for the application,
the jumper must be installed to prevent the fault code from
occurring.
If a local sensor is installed on the engine for a Heat Exchanger
configuration, this jumper must NOT be installed. This will
interfere with the on-engine sensor and cause erroneous
readings.

Remote Engine Stop Input


These terminals are provided for the connection of an engine
stop switch. A normally open (NO) Engine Stop switch must be
provided to use feature. Multiple Engine Stop buttons can be
connected in parallel. No broken wire monitoring is provided for
this input for C Command Elite.

feature for Auxiliary applications.
By default, a jumper is installed in the CIB to prevent an out of
range error code in Propulsion applications. The jumper is a
blanking resistive jumper consisting of a 2 k-ohm resistor
installed from (+) to signal, and a 330 ohm resistor installed
from () to signal. This jumper must be removed in order to
connect the Remote Throttle or Droop Adjust potentiometer.
The Droop Adjust input is used in conjunction with Frequency
Adjust in Auxiliary application for droop mode operation. It is
recommended that a 5k potentiometer be used if this feature is
required.

Further connection settings


Change the IP address of the DCU
If necessary, you can change the IP address of the DCU.
Part of the IP address defines the engine number in a system
with several DCUs.
The DCU uses a fixed IP address that is set during the first
power-on set up. The IP address may also be changed later on
through the DCU panel menu:
Menu / Configuration / Miscellaneous /
Network configuration
Use the up / down arrows to select each of the four groups of
numbers and press edit to edit each group.
The factory default IP of the DCU is 192.168.0.101. The first
three groups must be the same for all components in the LAN,
for instance 192.168.0.###.
The fourth and last group must be unique within the LAN. Also,
the two last digits will represent the engines number. For
instance the DCU with the IP address 192.168.0.104 will be
designated engine number 4.

Connect the DCU to a single PC


First, make sure that the PCs Ethernet network configuration is
set to automatically receive an IP address (as most PCs are).
Then in the DCU panel menu:
Menu / Connect a PC
Press the down arrow and then Toggle. The DHCP-server will
now be active for 10 min. Repeat if it takes longer than 10 min
to ready the PC.
Connect the PC to the DCU with a CAT-5 Ethernet cable. The
DCUs DHCP-server will now automatically set up the PC to
communicate with the DCU. It may be necessary to use a
network reset/repair function for the PCs Ethernet connection
in order for the PC to receive the new IP address.
Alternatively, set the IP address of the PC manually to a free IP
address in the same subnet as the DCU.
For instance, if the DCUs IP address is 192.168.0.101, the PC
may use any IP address starting with 192.168.0 except
192.168.0.101.

32 Configuration Notes C Command Elite Series Installation Manual


Bulletin 4082079 Rev. 11/09
To connect the DCU to a LAN with a DHCP server
For use in a LAN with a DHCP server (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol), the IP addresses to be used by the C
Command Elite components must be set outside the IP address
range used by the DHCP server. Most DHCP servers are
configured with an IP address range that leaves room for fixed
addresses outside it.
If for instance the LANs subnet is 192.168.230 and the DHCPs
IP address range is set to 50 210, valid IP addresses of the
DCU would be for instance 192.168.230.211, 192.168.230.007
or 192.168.230.231.
Do not use the DCU built in DHCP-server (the Menu / Connect
a PC menu entry) in a LAN with its own DHCP server since
two DHCP servers in the same LAN may create conflicting IP
addresses.

Connection to a LAN using fixed IP addresses


Set the IP address of the DCU to a free IP address within the
LANs subnet.

Factory defaults for the DCU


Factory defaults only at initial start up, for later resets the
existing IP configuration will be kept even through the Factory
reset operation.
IP address: 192.168.0.101
Subnet: 192.168.0
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP IP addresses range: 101 199 within the subnet defined
by the DCUs IP address.

General Configuration
RPM Rounding rounds off the displayed value to
nearest 1, 5 or 10rpm.
RPM setpoint is the rpm at which the DCU indicates the
engine is running.
RPM Ready to take Load is a signal that can be
configured to an output relay. It activates when the set
rpm is reached, and deactivates if it falls below this rpm
minus 15% or until a stop command is received.
Nominal Speed is the engines nominal speed, and is
used to calculate the overspeed setpoint and rpm
overspeed test setpoints.

General
Channel use is the selection of where the signal shall be
displayed. Select DCU+RP to display the instrument in the
DCU and in the RP.

Display
The values here define how the instrument widget is presented.
Display Unit is the signals unit, here RPM
Display Range Min is the minimum value displayed,
normally zero.
Display Range Max is the maximum value displayed.
For an engine running at 1500 RPM nominally, a typical
maximum setting would be 1800 RPM.
Display Major Divider is where the instrument widget
writes an RPM value, normally every 500 RPM.
Display Minor Divider is the ticked marks between the
major divider marks, normally every 100 RPM.
Display Multiplier is the multiplier value. The value is
printed in the RPM meter.

Overspeed
RPM Overspeed is the setpoint where the DCU
indicates overspeed.
RPM Overspeed Delay is the delay in milliseconds
before alarm or shutdown. Typical setpoint is 100ms.

physical channels. The physical channels may be hardwired or
from the J1939 CAN bus.
The differential channel will output the difference between the
two source channels. The sensor unit must be the same for the
two selected source signals, for instance they might not be bar
and psi.
Select one of the five differential channels.

Then, select two signals of the same unit type. The differential
channel result can be assigned to an instrument widget.
