My fear whit it is they are based down the south of England, will they bother to make a trip to the north of Scotland to help me find my bit of kit that's been nicked ?

When I had an issue getting my Auger to work, I had to use a phone to connect to the DC2 box which Engcon then used to take control of my settings. Its quite impressive when someone can fix an issue you are having, from 100 miles away on a Sunday afternoon! I don't think the DC2 box can connect on its own so wouldnt be able to track it without it being connected through someones phone.Just thinking out loud Ollie, if the “DC2” is able to be remotely adjusted, are they able to track where abouts it is??... i.e, should a DC2 unit get stolen, then reinstalled on another machine somewhere could it be found?? @Engcon UK
Yeh, it is very impressive when you see it working like that. Understand what your saying and just had a bit of conversation with Robert about it.When I had an issue getting my Auger to work, I had to use a phone to connect to the DC2 box which Engcon then used to take control of my settings.

Had a conversation with Ollie @Komatsu about this on the way into work. There are three elements to a tilty installation (and, by inference, a de-installation in the case of theft). The attractive bit of kit is the thing on the end of the dipper, but to make it work on all but the most basic systems one requires a control system and a set of joysticks. Both of these are hard-wired into the digger and, as one forum member will witness today, a de-install (for a re-install on a new machine after Crimbo), takes a long time.When I had an issue getting my Auger to work, I had to use a phone to connect to the DC2 box which Engcon then used to take control of my settings.

Jamie, Tim or one of our Service Partners, Ollie? Just our of interest as I'd like to thank themIts quite impressive when someone can fix an issue you are having, from 100 miles away on a Sunday afternoon!
Think it was Tim I spoke to, who worked his magic when I was performing many head rubs back in June (gold rush reference there for those in the know ) But the original call out was to Neil at Nasco (who put me onto Tim) who has to put up with me contacting him at various hours of the day with another "I've forgotten how to do this" or my latest one was when my Idig decided it didn't understand what gravity was. Quick video of the problem over facebook and a video reply came minutes after, showing me how to sort it. Problem solved by the time I'd put the kettle on and the customer was none the wiser that I'd been digging in the sky for the last hourJamie, Tim or one of our Service Partners, Ollie?
