Abstract: A hydraulic control system is disclosed. The hydraulic control system may have a hydraulic actuator, a valve arrangement, and an operator input device configured to generate a first signal indicative of a desired hydraulic actuator velocity. The hydraulic control system may also have a sensor configured to generate a second signal indicative of an actual flow rate of fluid entering the hydraulic actuator, and a controller. The controller may be configured to determine a desired flow rate of fluid into the hydraulic actuator based on the first signal; to estimate the actual flow rate based on the desired flow rate, a correction flow rate, and a system response model; and to determine the actual flow rate based on the second signal. The controller may also be configured to make a comparison of the estimated and determined actual flow rates of fluid, and to determine the correction flow rate based on the comparison.

Abstract: A control system for a machine may include a processor configured to communicate with a power source. The processor may also be configured to communicate with a transmission assembly. The processor may be configured to determine whether the power source is in a potential stall condition based at least in part on an actual speed of the power source and a requested speed of the power source. If the power source is in the potential stall condition, the processor may be configured to request that fuel be supplied to the power source although the fuel is not currently required by the power source, in anticipation of an increase in load on the machine.

Abstract: A machine control system may include a processor configured to communicate with an operator interface including an acceleration pedal and a forward-neutral-reverse selector, a power source, and a transmission assembly. The processor may be configured to obtain a request from the forward-neutral-reverse selector. The processor may also be configured to provide an instruction for adjusting operation of the transmission assembly in response to the forward-neutral-reverse selector request. The process may also be configured to obtain a request for an increase in a speed of the power source at a first rate. The power source speed request may be based on a position of the acceleration pedal. The processor may also be configured to provide an instruction for increasing the power source speed at a second rate slower than the first rate.
