Zusammenfassung:A work vehicle (1) has an automatic lighting control system (40) that controls multiple light emitters (L1 - L10) of the vehicle responsive to: changes in the vehicle use parameters, for example, an operating mode of the vehicle, such as on-road or off-road mode, or forward or reverse drive mode; or changes in an external parameter, such as the worksite location or ambient light intensity or time of day, or an external vehicle use control signal. The automatic lighting control system (30) maps different operating conditions of the light emitters (L1 - L10) (e.g. mandatory on, mandatory off, switchable by the driver) to the different vehicle use parameters. The vehicle control system (20) further includes a lighting plan configuration system (50) that is operable to receive configuration instructions, and to reconfigure each lighting plan to define a different combination of operating conditions in accordance with the configuration instructions.
