Abstract
Systems and methods for transitioning a material handling vehicle between a manual mode and a remote mode is provided. The method includes automatically transitioning the material handling vehicle from the remote mode to the manual mode in response to a determination, by a floor mat sensor, that an operator is positioned within an operator compartment of the material handling vehicle. The vehicle is prevented from entering the remote mode while the floor mat sensor indicates that the operator is positioned within the operator compartment. A mode selection switch, positioned on the material handling vehicle, is actuated from a first position to a second position and back to the first position, permitting the vehicle to enter the remote mode after the floor mat sensor ceases to indicate that the operator is positioned within the operator compartment.
