Control system of mobile work machine and method for controlling mobile work machine

Abstract

In the presented solution a control system of a mobile work machine comprises a user application. The user application is programmable to receive inputs and to produce outputs (30) for controlling the operation of the mobile work machine. The control system also comprises a safety-related firmware having a safety function part (24) comprising configurable safety parameters (51). The configurable safety parameters (51) comprise information regarding safety related inputs (27) and safety related outputs (28). The user application is arranged to feed the configurable safety parameters (51) to the safety function part (24) of the firmware. In the presented solution the safety functions are implemented in the safety function part (24) of the firmware.
