Plugging a Computer
The in-cab control panel of the MINIMAX™ has a computer plug that can be used to connect a laptop
computer for reprogramming purposes (see Figure 9-19). Connecting a laptop to this plug requires
special hardware and software (included in the service kit). For more information on this, contact the
LabriePlus Service Department. In advanced troubleshooting process, a modem may be connected to
this plug to help Labrie’s technicians to detect and pinpoint the cause of body-related problems.

Replacing the CAN Bus-Based Multiplex Joystick
Should the CAN bus-based multiplex joystick need to be replaced for any reason, it will have to be
replaced with a new joystick of the same kind and same part number in order to insure continued
proper operation of the multiplex system. Do not use other kind of joysticks even if they bear
similarities to the CAN bus-based joystick. For more information on CAN bus-based joystick
replacement, contact LabriePlus.
