Maintaining Electrical System Control During Unreliable Conditions
The International® Truck Diamond Logic® electrical system is considered the most advanced in the industry—and for good reason. The Diamond Logic® electrical system streamlines chassis and body equipment integration for more consistent performance and increased protection for both equipment and crew. It’s easy to spec and simplifies the integration process.
Regardless of the application, Diamond Logic is designed to easily integrate chassis and body electrical systems and accommodate an infinite variety of vehicle configuration options. And with Diamond Logic Builder, you can create your own customized features and solutions.

Let’s look at some examples of how Diamond Logic can enhance the safety of your crew and equipment as well as boost the productivity potential of each shift.
Various functions, including pre-trip inspections, interlocks, solenoid air packs and equipment status lights, can be programmed to help ensure driver safety and assist in protecting your vehicle.
Boom Hydraulics
Diamond Logic can prevent the transmission from shifting into drive and can illuminate an indicator light until the boom is stowed correctly.
Outriggers
Diamond Logic can control deployment and sense when they are not properly stowed (not letting transmission come out of neutral) and will illuminate an indicator light in the switch pack.
Differential Lock
Diamond Logic can control when the axle differential locks and unlocks depending on road speed, protecting the driveline from damage due to excessive speeds in a locked position.
Solenoid Air Packs
Air can be turned on with a switch in the dash or controlled based on chassis and/or body functions. For example, tailgate air lock in dump applications can be programmed to not unlock unless the truck is driving below a certain speed.
Diamond Logic can boost the efficiency of daily operations with interlocks that make the job easier for the crew. For example, remote body switches on a cement mixer can be programmed to control chutes and water valves – even the buttons on the key fob (on certain models) can be programmed to perform desired tasks.
Pre-Trip Light Inspections
Driver can press a button and all the exterior lights will blink in sequence, allowing daily DOT light inspection with just one person.
Power Take Off Control
Electric control with dash-mounted switch includes audible alarm and indicator light in gauge cluster. This provides safe control of the power take off with multiple interlocks.
Work Light
Diamond Logic can automatically turn the light on or off based on chassis functions (for example, the rear-facing light could be programmed to turn on any time the transmission is in reverse, adding additional lighting) and automatically shut off the light based on a set forward speed.
Power Take Off
Engagement and disengagement can be based on chassis and body conditions (engine speed, road speed, outrigger deployed before boom can raise, park brake set, transmission in neutral, etc.). Certain data links can be used as an interlock, including RPM, MPH, park brake and gear position. In most cases, engine speed can be controlled while using the PTO with no additional wiring needed.
Remote Key Functions
Several International Truck models feature a programmable key fob that allows two Diamond Logic tasks (such as pre-trip light inspection) to be activated with the push of a button.
