Indication Display System
First Claim
1. An indication display system for a machine, comprising:
- an operator interface including a display screen, the display screen having at least one fixed indicator light and a machine performance information display section configured to display information indicating at least one machine parameter and a message display section configured to selectively display at least one pop-up message, wherein the fixed indicator light is disposed adjacent a portion of the machine performance information display section;
a data storage device, the data storage device storing at least message data; and
a controller operably connected to the data storage device and the operator interface, the controller, in response to receiving a signal indicative of a first machine condition, configured to illuminate the fixed indicator light and to assemble from the message data in the data storage device a first pop-up message describing the first machine condition and to provide the first pop-up message to the operator interface for display in the message display section of the display screen simultaneously with illumination of the fixed indicator light.
