Abstract

A process for modifying operation of a materials handling vehicle is carried out by receiving from a tablet, an electrical signal representing an instruction to modify an operating condition of the materials handling vehicle. The instruction is communicated by the tablet via an open standard communication protocol. The process also includes converting the instruction received via the open standard communication protocol to a modification command. The modification command can be used to modify an electrical component of the materials handling vehicle according to a parameter extracted from the instruction. The process also includes transmitting the modification command to the electrical component of the materials handling vehicle via a vehicle network of the materials handling vehicle. The electrical component receives the modification command and transforms an operating state of the associated electrical component so as to cause an overall modification of the operation of the materials handling vehicle.
