Abstract: An apparatus to wirelessly monitor selected sensors of a machine having a plurality of sensors includes a touchscreen display configured to display a graphical user interface (GUI) and a processor or processing circuitry that receives and analyzes data wirelessly transmitted from the selected sensors. Selection of the sensors can include display on the GUI of a first user input to receive a selection to select the machine from a predetermined list of machines, a second user input to receive an input to identify and monitor one or more operating characteristics of the machine, and a third user input to receive one or more inputs to individually associate sensor identifiers with graphics corresponding to the candidate sensor selection locations to select the sensors from which to receive and analyze data to monitor the one or more operating characteristics of the machine.

Abstract: A system for monitoring structural health of a machine includes sensors configured to collect structural health data associated with the machine. The system includes video cameras operatively associated with the machine and configured to selectively record video data. The system includes a controller, including a processor, operatively associated with the sensors and the video cameras. The controller is configured to receive the structural health data from the sensors and determine if one or more structural health events have occurred based on the structural health data. The controller is configured to record the video data during a timeframe associated with at least one of the one or more structural health events, if at least one of the one or more structural health events has occurred, the video data showing occurrence of at least one of the one or more structural health events, relative to the machine.

Abstract: Mounting arrangement includes a drawbar assembly universally coupled to a longitudinally extending front frame portion of a machine proximal to a front wheel and a distance rearward from the wheel. An implement mounting bracket pivotably coupled to the assembly defines an articulation axis. First and second hydraulic actuators advance respective power links coupled to the mounting bracket to rotate the mounting bracket about the articulation axis. Respective idler links limit the movement of the actuators and power links.
