What components are included in the system MUX panel?

The correct answer highlights the components that are essential for the operational capabilities of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV). The MUX panel is designed to provide immediate control over critical vehicle functions, particularly in challenging environments.

Fording mode, CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) settings, and axle lock controls are vital for ensuring that the vehicle can adapt to varied terrains and conditions. Fording mode allows the vehicle to operate in water without suffering damage, while the CTIS enables the driver to adjust tire pressure for optimal traction on different surfaces. Axle locks enhance traction by ensuring that all wheels receive power when navigating through rugged terrains. Together, these functions enable the JLTV to maintain high mobility and performance standards in a wide range of operational scenarios.

In contrast, while radio controls and GPS settings, battery charge levels, fuel gauges, engine temperatures, and oil pressures are also important, they do not specifically pertain to the MUX panel, which focuses on immediate tactical vehicle functionality. The MUX panel is fundamentally about controlling and optimizing the vehicle's operational performance rather than monitoring or communicating information.
