Potential Applications:
Boom Functions
- Controlling boom functions with a closed-loop PWM signal for excellent proportionality and fine metering
- Input modules to convert discrete and proportional analog sensors into CAN
- Ability to have coordinated X-Y motion and electronic self leveling of the forks
Rated Capacity Limiter (RCL) / Load Moment Indicator (LMI)
- Display boom configuration, actual load, and rated load
- Provide function lockouts when operating in unsafe conditions
- Allow user to define additional envelopes to further define safe working areas
- Utilize HED smart dataloggers to record unsafe operation events
Outriggers
- CAN based keypad to simplify the wiring for driving your outriggers
Cab Functions
- Broad line up of displays to integrate engine and vehicle controls and diagnostic information
- Keypad for the cab to control auxiliary features such as attachments and lighting
- Ability to control and monitor the engine and transmission
- Electronic joystick control of the boom functions (lift, extend, fork tilt, frame tilt, etc.)
Misc Functions
- A camera that could be mounted at the end of the boom coupled with a display in the cab would provide an operator with better visibility during load placement at difficult heights
- Smart Dataloggers with up to 4GB and optional Wi-Fi communication to log critical events
- Fleet management via a fully functional Telematics system including the ability to download application code remotely to the vehicle
- Complete envelope control using a 32 bit processor
- High current power modules to drive lights and wiper (up to 40 amps per output)
Future Flexibility
- User friendly software tools to allow you to modify and update your control system as required
