Theory of Operation
Level COMMAND is a closed-loop terrain-control operating environment that continuously compares the machine’s measured terrain position against the active design surface or plane in order to determine the required implement movement.
The system operates together with the COMMAND hardware platform, GNSS receivers, hydraulic interfaces, machine sensors, and operator inputs to provide terrain guidance and automatic implement control.
During operation, Level COMMAND continuously processes:
- GNSS position data
- Machine and receiver offsets
- Active design surfaces or planes
- Machine configuration information
- Operator-applied offsets and limits
- Vehicle movement and speed information
Using this information, the system calculates target elevations and control corrections which are transmitted to the COMMAND ECU for hydraulic or vehicle interface control.
The operator remains responsible for supervising machine behaviour and safe operation at all times.
