Abstract:
A plurality of portable lifts are dynamically configured to form a lift system for raising and lowering of vehicle. Each portable lift is added to the lift system and communicates wirelessly with a centralized control module. Some systems guide the user through a sequenced association of lifts in particular relative positions around the vehicle, while others use automatic position-detection techniques to determine those relative positions without explicit user input. Some systems allow definition of subsystems that can be operated together. Flexible controls may selectively allow operation of individual lifts, pairs or subsystems of lifts, or the full system at once. Controls on each lift may communicate commands for other lifts by way of the centralized control module.

Claim (Index 27):
A method of setting up a lift system, the lift system comprising a plurality of mobile lifts and a wireless control unit; wherein each lift in the plurality of mobile lifts comprises a control interface and an indicator; and wherein the wireless control unit is configured to communicate with the plurality of lifts in order to coordinate the lift system; the method comprising:\n (a) activating the wireless control unit, comprising setting a desired communication frequency for the wireless control unit; (b) placing each lift in the plurality of mobile lifts in a desired position; and (c) activating each lift in the plurality of lifts, comprising setting each control interface in the plurality of mobile lifts to the desired communication frequency such that the wireless control unit and each lift in the plurality of mobile lifts communicate a system identifier between them, wherein the system identifier is configured to establish a communication network between the control unit and the plurality of mobile lifts to form the lift system, and wherein the indicator in each lift of the plurality of mobile lifts is configured to activate when the communication network between the control unit and each lift in the plurality of lifts has been established.
