Logset renews the control system for its logging machines

The development process has focused on making the control system easy to use.

The renewed system is called TOC 2 (Total Operation and Control 2). Logset forwarders with the TOC 2 control system have been in production for some time, and the production of TOC 2 Logset harvesters began in the summer 2017. In addition to the TOC 2 for the base machine, the harvester has TOC-MD 2 for the harvester head integrated in the control system.

The renewed TOC 2 control system is user-friendly. The new menus, colours and symbols of the control system have been designed to improve the user experience. The development work has been user-oriented, and their customers and personnel with forest machine operator background have played a key role in the process. The TOC 2 settings are divided into basic and advanced settings. From the basic settings, the operator can find all the necessary functions for a regular work day.

The user interface is even more pleasant with the new harvester controls designed by Design Engineer Markus Storsjö. He has also worked on the graphic design of the TOC 2, to make the settings easy to find and to keep the overall look of the system streamlined. The TOC 2 control system is Linux based, and it has been designed for forest machines. A Windows PC is used in the cabin only for the map and data transfer programs used by the forest companies.

The error diagnostics of TOC 2 has also been renewed. TOC 2 error codes can tell exactly what the fault is and where it has occurred. Logset service and customers can find and fix problems faster, which eases everyone’s day-to-day work. Source
