Abstract
An articulation control system for a machine may include an actual steering sensor configured to provide a signal indicative of an actual steering angle, a timer configured to provide a signal indicative of an elapsed predetermined period of time, and a controller in communication with the actual steering sensor and the timer. The controller may be configured to regulate automatic articulation to zero based on signals received from the actual steering sensor and the timer.
