Ya man I feel ya, like some just mentioned it's possible the DPF pressure sensor is bad. Mine went out on Easter weekend. Normally they get soot/moisture in them, you could try taking that off and taking a paper towel, stuff it in both holes to absorb the moisture... Being a company truck though, might be best to let them handle it...
How far are you from the house?
Here is what the DPF pressure sensor looks like, not sure about international but on my Peterbilt its right behind the huge aftertreament filter on the passenger side...

Do I ever need to do a manual parked regen without the truck asking for it?

I'm about 4 hours from the house. I need to do a 30 anyways do I pulled over to do a Regen but it looks like you can't manually do it on an international without the light being on.kemosabi49, Oxbow and JonJon78 Thank this.

Well good luck. Let us know how it pans out.homeskillet and Oxbow Thank this.

Regen on diesel engines is a process that cleans the exhaust pollution (also known as soot) from the diesel particulate filter (DPF) by using heat, chemical reaction, or electricity
Your error is SCR, Selective Catalyst Reduction. It is the last piece in the aftertreatment system before the exhaust goes out the pipe. The SCR is a catalytic converter similar to one in a car to reduce NOx emissions. The DEF fluid injected into the exhaust also helps to reduce NOx.
I doubt a regen would get an SCR error to away even if you could do one.D.Tibbitt, loudtom, AModelCat and 1 other person Thank this. -
I think it wasn't getting hot enough to completely clean it. I had a lot of idle time in the days prior. The warning went away after a hill climb and hasn't been back.JB7 Thanks this.

Love's and Speedco now do warranty work on Internationals, so it's possible that they could do something with a sensor.D.Tibbitt Thanks this.

Out of curiosity what is the engine and transmission and RAR?

I know on my 16 Cascadia you can't do a parked Regen without it calling for one, it has to be hooked to a computer to do a forced Regen.
