Zusammenfassung:A method for steering alignment calibration of an articulated machine having front and rear frames pivotally connected by an articulation joint to steer the machine may include displaying a steering alignment calibration screen with a target steering angle between the frames and a calculated steering angle. The calculated steering angle may be determined based on a sensed steering angle and a calibration steering angle. The machine is steered until the displayed calculated steering angle is equal to the target steering angle. If an actual steering angle of the machine is not equal to the target steering angle, further steering is performed until the actual steering angle is equal to the target steering angle. The calibration steering angle may be recalculated and stored for future use when the actual steering angle is equal to the target steering angle but the calculated steering angle is not equal to the target steering angle.
