It would actually be easier to have a float in the wet kit hydraulic tank on the truck side that alarms when the hydraulic fluid is low.
Not just that, but you need a standard to communicate it truck to trailer and retrofit it so it all plays nice.
Could be done on a dump truck though if there is a way to set a separate governor in the computer that gets enabled by the bed up light somehow.
Not just to spread it, they have to scooch a bit to let the material fall. The tightest end dump pile is still a fat line.
Maintenance would be on the driver since it's his responsibility to shut down the truck. U-Joint failures happen (on the tractor), but should be inspected daily (finger quotes).
Doesn't matter though, cause he left his bed up. There's no driveshaft on the trailer. If there were, it would take forever to hook a trailer lol.
You're putting the docking station in the wrong part of this. It is a branch, not the fork.
Keyboard/mouse/video plug into KVM
Wires from KVM go to docking station
Another set go to monitor/desktop
When you plop the 'top in the dock, hit Win+P or whatever shortcut to change display to external monitor only if you're feeling froggy.
Either way, you will still have two wires to the docking station at minimum. I'm probably old, but I don't think you're gonna get all 3 through a single USB port.
