The Cat App: Fleet management mobile application can be used to log in to a machine. To enable the application to be detected by the system, the Mobile Device ID (MDID) of the mobile application must be assigned to the machine in the Operator Management System (OMS). The mobile device must be within the cab and the "Operator Management Bluetooth Device Enabled Status" must be enabled (Cat ET Configuration). [1]

To log in using the Cat App: Fleet management mobile application:

  1. Turn the engine start switch to the ON position.
  2. Ensure that Bluetooth detection is enabled on the in-cab display.
  3. Open the Cat App: Fleet management mobile application on the mobile device.
  4. Click "I Agree" to agree with the End-User License Agreement and sign in with Cat eCustomer account credentials. If you do not have an account, click "Get Started" to create one.
  5. Select "Login".
  6. After logging in successfully, an "Engine Start Allowed" message will appear across the top of the monitor.

[2] The Cat Machine Security System (MSS) discourages unwanted machine operation, and when armed, it requires operator login to start the engine. Login methods to disarm the security system include the Cat Bluetooth key fob, the Cat App: Fleet Management, and a passcode. [3]

After an operator logs in to the system successfully, an "Engine Start Allowed" message will appear across the top of the monitor. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, Engine Starting for instructions on starting the engine. ## NOTICE The access level will change to a "Guest" account au- tomatically if the key is removed from the cab at any time. If the MSS is enabled and the engine is on when the key is removed from the cab, the operator will not be able to start the engine if turned off. To turn on the engine again without the Bluetooth key, the operator will need to log in a registered account using either the smart phone application or passcode. Note: If multiple Bluetooth devices are within the cab, the system will select the first device detected by the Bluetooth transceiver as the active operator. ## Cat ⓇFleet Management Mobile Application Operators can also log in to a machine using the Cat App: Fleet management mobile application. For the application to be detected by the system, ensure that the following qualifications are met: The Mobile Device ID (MDID) of the mobile application must be assigned to the machine in the Operator Management System (OMS) Note: It is not possible to assign mobile devices through the MSS interface. The mobile device must be within the cab • "Operator Management Bluetooth Device Enabled Status" is enabled (Cat ET Configuration) Note: For adding an operator, adding MDID to the machine key list, and pushing the machine key list from the OMS to the machine refer to the OMS documentation at: https://myoperators.cat.com/ ## Mobile Device/Operating Software Compatibility Table 15 <table><tr><th colspan="3">Mobile Device/Operating Software Compatibility</th></tr><tr><td>Make</td><td>Model</td><td>Operating Software</td></tr
