Abstract

A control system for a machine having a support structure, a track roller frame assembly coupled to the support structure and a machine body coupled to the support structure, the electronic control system including a lateral position sensor that is coupled to the track roller frame assembly and is configured to detect a lateral position of the track roller frame assembly relative to the support structure, an angular position sensor that is coupled to the machine body and is configured to detect an angular position of the machine body relative to the support structure, and a processor configured to determine a parameter for the tracked machine based on the detected lateral position of the track roller frame assembly, the detected lateral position indicative asymmetrical positioning a track roller frame assembly, and the detected angular position of the machine body, and provide feedback based on the parameter for the tracked machine.
