Abstract
Methods and systems for operating implements of a vehicle are described. Operation of the implements may be adjusted in response to input to a human/machine interface, such as a joystick. In one example, one or more implement requests are scaled according to a human/machine allowance factor, where the human/machine allowance factor is based on an implements power limit and an implements requested power.
Claims16
A vehicle system, comprising:
- a human/machine interface;
- a plurality of implement actuators;
- and
- a controller including instructions stored in non-transitory memory that when executed cause the controller to adjust an amount of power delivered to one or more of the plurality of implement actuators in response to an amount of power requested to operate the plurality of implement actuators as requested via input to the human/machine interface, wherein the human/machine interface includes a plurality of inputs to operate one or more implements via the plurality of implement actuators, wherein the amount of power requested to operate the plurality of implement actuators is based on the plurality of inputs to operate one or more implements via the plurality of implement actuators, and wherein the amount of power requested to operate the plurality of implement actuators is further based on a pump speed and a pump displacement.
1 more element
A method for operating implements of a vehicle, comprising:
- receiving data from one or more implement inputs of a human/machine interface to a controller;
- and
- adjusting operation of one or more distributors via the controller in response to a requested power, wherein the requested power is based on the data from the one or more implement inputs of the human/machine interface, and wherein the requested power is further based on a pump speed, a pump displacement, and a supply pressure.
A method for operating implements of a vehicle, comprising:
- scaling one or more implement request values in response to a human/machine interface allowance factor via a controller, wherein the human/machine interface allowance factor is based on an implements power limit divided by an implements requested power value.
