Abstract
A machine control system may include an input receiving portion configured to receive torque inputs related to a hydrostatic transmission. The input receiving portion may also receive an operator request for actuating the hydrostatic transmission. The machine control system may also include a processor configured to determine a factor based at least in part on the torque inputs, for adjusting the operator request. The processor may also be configured to determine a command for actuating the hydrostatic transmission based on the adjusted operator request, such that a torque load to be exerted on a power source by the hydrostatic transmission is within a desired range. The machine control system may further include an output sending portion configured to send the command to the hydrostatic transmission.
