1. A vehicle lift system including a vehicle lift with a post, an actuator, and a carriage assembly, where said vehicle lift system further comprises:

  • a lift control system for controlling the actuator so as to lift the carriage assembly relative to the post, wherein said lift control system includes at least one core processor;

    a lift control module for providing instructions to said lift control system, said lift control module including—

    a user interface for receiving user instructions from a user,at least one control module processor,a non-transitory computer-readable medium with an advanced operating platform stored thereon, wherein the computer-readable medium further includes one or more electronic libraries stored thereon, with said electronic libraries being accessible by said advanced operating platform,wherein each of said electronic libraries include one or more library program codes for instructing said at least one control module processor to perform steps,wherein said computer readable medium further includes—

    a first application operable to be executed by said advanced operating platform, wherein said first application directs said at least one control module processor to provide instructions to said lift control system to control the actuator based on the user instructions,a second application operable to be executed by said advanced operating platform, wherein said second application directs said at least one control module processor to perform certain steps, with such certain steps not directed to controlling the actuator,wherein at least one of said first application or said second application instructs said control module processor to perform steps based, at least in part, on said library program codes in said one or more electronic libraries; and

    a communication link between said lift control system and said lift control module,wherein said lift control module is configured to operate remotely from the vehicle lift, wherein said lift control module is configured to remotely execute the first application such that said lift control module can wirelessly provide instructions, via said communications link, to said lift control system of the vehicle lift to control the actuator of the vehicle lift.
