So, I have a '14 T800 that is rigged up in Hot Oiler Trim.... While I sit and do my jobs, the truck has the pto switch kicked on and engine reved up, and the Park Brake on warning chime just dings away. I need to get this to stop without having to sit onsite without my park brakes on....
As defined in the manual, this alarm comes on when the park brake is set, and the vehicle speed is greater than zero, or throttle input is over 10%...
How do guys sleep in the winter with their trucks revved up to keep warm up north? This is a silly alarm, and if anyone can help me out I would appreciate it.
Park Brake on Warning driving me crazy!

The system is doing what it was designed to do, protect you and the engine/truck..
Use an APU or Webasto heater http://www.webasto.com/us/markets-products/truck/heating-systems/products/air-top-2000-st/

It would be a set on ECM probably as simple as hooking computer up and checking a box

I think you're missing the point.... I need to run the truck to power my equipment.... While parked and revved up, so the alarm will be chiming, even though the truck is sitting there doing what it was built to do... There must be some aftermarket way or something to turn this alarm off so that I don't need to listen to it all day long. -
Pull the Chime out.

The right way to have the pto set up is wired to the ECM so as when you engage pto the computer recognises it and all the parameters change as in engine speed increases to programmed level. That being said I don't think my truck is hooked up like that because I have to set cruise to lift rpm. I don't think it would be worth buying a program just to change these items. Next time truck is hook up for electrical issue get them to change it.
