1. A method for operating a machine, comprising:
- receiving data relating to a current state of multiple parameters;
determining a parameter signature for each parameter of the multiple parameters based on the received data;
comparing each parameter signature to reference data to determine which operating modes of the machine are indicated by each parameter signature;
determining that less than a threshold number of parameter signals are indicated for each of the operating modes so that a single operating mode of the machine cannot be determined;
receiving supplemental data relating to one or more parameters not associated with any of the determined parameter signatures;
comparing the supplemental data to stored data; and
adjusting one or more components of an implement control system according to an operating mode indicated by the comparison of the supplemental data.

Abstract
A method is provided for operating a machine. The method includes receiving data relating to a current state of multiple parameters. The method also includes determining a parameter signature for each parameter of the multiple parameters based on the received data. In addition, the method includes comparing each parameter signature to reference data to determine which operating modes of the machine are indicated by each parameter signature. The method further includes adjusting one or more components of an implement control system according to the operating mode indicated by a threshold number of parameter signatures.

3. A method for operating a machine, comprising:
-
receiving data relating to a current state of multiple parameters; determining a parameter signature for each parameter of the multiple parameters based on the received data; comparing each parameter signature to reference data to determine which operating modes of the machine are indicated by each parameter signature; determining that less than a threshold number of parameter signals are indicated for each of the operating modes so that a single operating mode of the machine cannot be determined; determining a current state of one or more factors that affect the operation of the machine, the factors being different from the parameters associated with the parameter signatures; receiving supplemental data relating to one or more parameters not associated with any of the determined parameter signatures; comparing the supplemental data to stored data; and adjusting one or more components of an implement control system according to the current state of the one or more factors and an operating mode indicated by the comparison of the supplemental data. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14)
