Abstract: An engine controller to control a plurality of engines is disclosed. The engine controller may determine that power to a load is to be increased, wherein the load is configured to be powered by one or more of the plurality of engines; determine that an engine, of the plurality of engines, is configured to provide supplemental power to the load after a temperature of the engine satisfies a threshold, wherein the threshold corresponds to a warm-up operation of the engine being completed; determine that the temperature of the engine does not satisfy the threshold; obtain, via an operator interface, an authorization to bypass the warm-up operation of the engine; and bypass, based on obtaining the authorization, the warm-up operation for the engine to permit the engine to provide instantaneous power to the load.

Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) of a display screen connected to a machine and, more particularly, to GUIs of one or more display screens that have a relative coordinate system to display parameter information from one or more connected machines. The GUI may include one or more display screens associated with a data bus for a machine, one or more data storage devices for storing processor readable instructions, and at least one processor configured to perform operations stored on the one or more data storage devices. The at least one processor may be configured to receive operations data from the data bus for the machine, extract parameter information from the operations data, and generate the GUI. The GUI may depict a plurality of parameter elements, wherein the plurality of parameter elements are arranged and scaled according to the extracted parameter information, arrangement rules, and display screen resolution.
