Abstract

A work cycle detection and control system includes an angle detector that detects an angular position of an implement, operably coupled to a mobile machine, relative to a base of the mobile machine. The system also includes a range detector that detects a degree range of rotation, about the base, in which the angular position of the implement is located. Work cycle logic identifies a particular work cycle, from a plurality of different work cycles, that the mobile machine is performing, based on the degree range. An action signal generator generates an action signal, based on the particular work cycle.
