Abstract: A system for communicating an impact sustained by a work machine moving at a worksite to a remote operator workstation for controlling the work machine through the remote operator workstation. The system includes a controller configured to obtain data associated with an acceleration of the work machine along one or more degrees of motion during a movement of the work machine at the worksite and derive an acceleration value based on the data. The controller is further configured to issue a notification of the impact of the work machine to the remote operator workstation through an output device of the remote operator workstation if the acceleration value exceeds a threshold acceleration value during the movement of the work machine.

Abstract: A cycle counter for a wheeled tractor scraper is disclosed. The cycle counter may have an ejector configured to push material from a bowl of the wheeled tractor scraper, a sensor configured to generate a pressure signal indicative of a position of the ejector, and a controller in communication with the sensor. The controller may be configured to determine movement of the ejector toward a full dump position based on the pressure signal, and to record completion of a cycle for the wheeled tractor scraper after the ejector has reached the full dump position only if a value of the pressure signal exceeded a threshold value during movement of the ejector toward the full dump position.

Abstract: A tool control system for a scraper is disclosed. The tool control system may have a tool, a first tool actuator configured to move the tool, and a first sensor configured to detect a position parameter of at least one of the tool and the first tool actuator and to generate a corresponding first signal. The tool control system may also have a tool member operatively connected to the tool, a second tool actuator connectable to the tool member in a plurality of configurations to move the tool member, and a second sensor configured to detect a position parameter of at least one of the tool member and the second tool actuator and to generate a corresponding second signal. The tool control system may further have a controller configured to make a comparison of the first and second signals, and to determine a current connection configuration based on the comparison.
