is this 'official' cat software?
judging from the link you provided it is NOT the official CAT software.
Last time i checked CAT does not offer any of their software for free much less to the public. And last time i checked the 'official' cat branded software for the P5000 forklifts was called Diagnozer and that software cannot be obtained anywhere officially except from them in their training classes or through a special agreement if one is made to select 'fleet' customers. This also applies to the cables required to connect to the machines.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
