Abstract
An electronic control system allows control over the safe operation of an aerial work platform machine. The control system uses a firmware programmed digital processor to execute a sequence of steps to monitor and control the safe operation of the work platform machine so that tipping and damage are prevented. The control system has sensors to measure the condition of the work platform machine and has outputs allowing control over the work platform machine.
