It converts machine switch signals into the CAN communication language required by Bobcat attachments, allowing those attachments to function on a wider range of loaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for Operators Managing Mixed Equipment Fleets:\u003c\/strong\u003e This controller is especially useful for owners moving away from Bobcat machines while keeping Bobcat attachments in service. It is also a strong solution for dealers, contractors, and fleet owners who want to move attachments between multiple machine brands without rewiring them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Before Ordering:\u003c\/strong\u003e The X-CAT is offered in multiple machine-specific configurations and must be selected correctly for your carrier. Hydraulic couplers must also be reversed when using Bobcat attachments, since Bobcat hydraulic flow is opposite from many other manufacturers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFast, Reusable Plug-and-Play Setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Installation takes about one minute. This plug-mount version is designed for repeat use across different machines and attachments with one to six solenoid-controlled functions, depending on machine configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow the X-CAT Works:\u003c\/strong\u003e The controller detects which machine buttons are being pressed, then translates those 12-volt control signals into CAN commands that a Bobcat attachment recognizes. To the attachment, it appears as though it is connected to a Bobcat loader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-CAT controller with support for up to 8 output controls, depending on the machine’s available controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14-pin machine-side connection compatible with many major brands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory support from Skid Steer Genius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot Just a Simple Harness:\u003c\/strong\u003e The X-CAT contains an onboard microprocessor and dedicated driver electronics, which is why it functions as an active controller rather than a passive wiring adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen a Simpler Option May Work:\u003c\/strong\u003e If you only need to run one or two Bobcat attachments on another skid steer brand, a direct bypass harness may be a lower-cost option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttachment Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot supported:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bobcat chipper, Bobcat concrete pump, and Bobcat tree spades such as TS36 and TS44\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupported applications include:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bobcat 96-inch and 108-inch graders, rotary broom, soil conditioner, Bob-Tach mounted mini backhoe, box blade, cold planer with manual rotate, 84-inch grader without lasers, snow blower, V-plow, stump grinder, and wheel saw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCold Planer Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Some newer cold planer models with hydraulic angle control may require a 7th and 8th control function.
