Abstract

See full text

A machine control system controls operation of any one of a plurality of interchangeable power sources mounted on a machine. The machine includes an undercarriage supporting ground engagement members that propel the machine and an upper structure rotatably supported on the undercarriage. The upper structure includes a swing frame that supports an operator cab, an interchangeable power source, hydraulic components, and electrical components. A processor processes inputs, outputs and operating characteristics specific to each of the plurality of power sources, and standardizes the power output by each of the power sources to provide a normalized, consistent control and operation of systems of the machine regardless of which of the power sources is mounted on the machine.
