Command Zone™ is Oshkosh's computer controlled, multiplexed electronics system that operates and diagnoses all major vehicle systems. The backbone of the Command Zone information system is a multiplexing technology that allows vehicle components to work together.

The engineers of Oshkosh hardened the technology and have begun to apply it to benefit military operations:

Improved local diagnostics allow the operator to access vital vehicle information – via laptop, on-board display screens or hand-held personal digital device – to repair or troubleshoot the vehicle.

Real-time performance feedback, or health and usage monitoring, including vehicle speed, engine RPM, braking, accelerometer ratings and more.

Enhanced remote diagnostics improve the military's "reach back" readiness, allowing expert technicians to perform vehicle diagnostics long-distance, using modem, satellite or radio telecommunications technology.

Envelope control to keep systems operating within established safety parameters

Automatic electrical power management.

Oshkosh first introduced this truck technology in 1999, and due to its success in the demanding fire service applications, expanded its use into military and other commercial trucks. Oshkosh has already fielded more than 1500 trucks equipped with Command Zone electronics.
