Abstract
Operation of an industrial vehicle is managed by systems onboard that vehicle. One such management system monitors operation of vehicle components and produces performance data which is transmitted to an computer at the facility in which the industrial vehicle operates. That system includes an interface module with a plurality of inputs for receiving signals from components on the industrial vehicle. The interface module derives performance data from the signals and conveys the performance data over a communication network. A data acquisition module receives the performance data from the communication network and has a communicator for wirelessly transmitting the performance data.
