Abstract
“Off-board” operating control for a power machine or vehicle is described. The “off-board” operating control includes a receiver unit that is configured to receive operating commands transmitted from an “off-board” control unit. The receiver sends commands from the “off-board” control unit to a control component through a controller area network “on-board” the power machine or vehicle. In illustrated embodiments, the receiver unit is coupled to the controller area network through a connector, which plugs into an “off-board” controls module of the controller area network for plug and play operations.
