Abstract

A machine charging system includes a machine, a charging unit, at least one user locator, and a control system. The machine may include one or more batteries, a cab, and a temperature control system. The charging unit may be configured to be removably coupled to the machine via a cable. The control system may include a controller in communication with the at least one user locator and the cab temperature control system. When the controller detects that the at least one user locator is within a predetermined distance from the machine while the machine is coupled to the charging unit, the controller may initiate one or more pre-start or pre-conditioning procedures with the temperature control system to control a temperature of one or more components of the machine.
