1. A method for providing a force feedback to an operator input device, comprising:

  • determining, via a processor, an actual input operation parameter of the operator input device;

    determining, via the processor, a desired steering operation parameter of a steering mechanism based on the actual input operation parameter of the operator input device;

    determining, via the processor, an actual steering operation parameter of the steering mechanism;

    comparing, via the processor, the actual steering operation parameter to the desired steering operation parameter and to a previous desired steering operation parameter; and

    generating, via the processor, a command that selectively activates the force feedback to the operator input device based on the comparison.
