Processing device having a graphical user interface for industrial vehicle

A processing device having a graphical user interface, the processing device comprising:

• a housing having a front face, the front face defining a control section and a display section;
• a touch screen display within the display section of the front face of the housing;
• a set of controls arranged within the control section of the front face of the housing;
• and
• a controller communicably connected to the touch screen display and each control of the set of controls, wherein the controller is operatively programmed to detect gesture commands entered by an operator through interaction with the touch screen display, and to detect operator interactions with the set of controls;
• wherein when installed on an industrial vehicle:
• the processing device executes computer code that implements a set of widgets, each widget representing live data representing a current state associated with the industrial vehicle or a vehicle operator, the set of widgets organized to define a motion home screen position that displays at least one relevant travel related widget;
• when the industrial vehicle is stopped, a vehicle operator can navigate through graphical representations of the set of widgets on the display using any combination of the gesture commands and the set of controls;
• and
• when a current operating state of a traction control module indicates that a traction control is engaged, the controller causes the display to snap to the motion home screen position.
