Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A machine includes a frame, a plurality of ground engaging members associated with the frame, the plurality of ground engaging members configured to move the machine along a ground surface, a ground sensor attached to the frame, the ground sensor providing ground surface information, and an electronic controller associated with the frame. The electronic controller is programmed and configured to receive the ground surface information from the ground sensor, estimate a location of the ground surface relative to the frame of the machine, establish a height difference between the location of the ground surface and the frame of the machine, monitor the height difference continuously during operation of the machine, and provide a sunk condition indication when the height difference reduces below an acceptable threshold.
