Instrument Cluster. Critical operating
information on the 773F is relayed
via the Cat Data Link to five gauges,
18 LED indicator lights, and an LCD
digital display.

Cat Messenger. Standard on the 773F,
Cat Messenger provides real-time
machine performance and operating
data, and basic trip, maintenance, and
diagnostic data using an LCD display.
The viewable LCD screen area of the
Messenger display is 22.5 mm

ן

84.6 mm (0.89 in

ן 3.33 in).

Truck Production Management System
(TPMS) (optional).
TPMS provides
valuable payload and cycle time data
to improve productivity.

Uses strut pressure sensors and on-
board microprocessor to determine
payload weight.

Delivers consistent, accurate
payloads and improves efficiency
by minimizing overloading and
underloading.

External lights signal loading tool
operator when payload is reached.

On-board computer stores up to
2,400 cycles for analysis of payload
weight, cycle times, distances, and
actual cycle dates and times.

A second gear reweigh takes an
additional measurement once the
truck has reached second gear for
improved accuracy.

System is accurate within
± 5 percent under normal loading
conditions over a normal shift.

Standard LED lamps replace
incandescent lamps on the TPMS,
extending lamp life by 25 times.

VIMS™ Monitoring System (optional).
Caterpillar designed machine monitoring
system provides more than 250 machine
parameters, critical machine health and
payload data in real-time to keep the
773F performing at top production levels.

Product Link (optional). Now available
out of the factory, this system streamlines
diagnostic efforts, downtime, and
maintenance scheduling and costs by
providing a two-way communication
flow of vital machine data and location
information between the dealer and
the customer. Product Link provides
updates on service meter hours, machine
condition, machine location as well as
integrated mapping/route planning.

MineStar™ Ready. MineStar information
management system helps meet the
challenges of the mining industry by
linking the machines in the field with
business and operating systems to
ensure peak performance of mining
assets at the lowest possible cost.
These products deliver customers
everything from real-time machine
health information to GPS-guided
production aids. The 773F is equipped
for quick and easy installation of
MineStar™ information management
system products.
