Modifying emissions control systems using engineering software violates environmental laws in many jurisdictions. Calterm should be used responsibly and in compliance with local regulations.
Unlike adding a separate thermal camera, Calterm 5 overlays thermal data onto electrical measurements. For example, when probing a breaker panel, the display shows a spot temperature alongside voltage and current. Users can save thermal images with measurement data embedded as metadata. Calterm 5
Calterm allows users to monitor internal variables that are invisible to generic scan tools. Users can build custom screen files to track real-time engine behaviors, sensor voltages, and logic states simultaneously. The high-speed data logging capability is crucial for troubleshooting complex intermittent faults or validating performance modifications. 2. Calibration Alterations (E2M and Meta Files) For example, when probing a breaker panel, the
Because Calterm 5 can alter engine emissions and performance characteristics, its use is often strictly regulated. In many jurisdictions, modifying emissions-related calibrations is illegal for vehicles operating on public highways. Always ensure that your use of Calterm 5 complies with local environmental laws and manufacturer warranties. Conclusion Users can build custom screen files to track
Calterm 5 is the proprietary engineering development software used to monitor, diagnose, and alter the Electronic Control Modules (ECMs) found on Cummins engines. Unlike consumer-grade service tools designed for routine maintenance, Calterm 5 operates at the core development level. It grants deep access to the engine’s electronic control system.
