A vehicle including an aerial device movable from a first position to a second position. A computer control system includes a sensor that detects an operational parameter of the aerial device when the aerial device is in the first and second positions. The sensor outputs first and second signals for the operational parameter when the aerial device is in the first and second positions. When the aerial device is in the first position, the computer control system generates a first graphical representation of the current operating ability of the aerial device in response to the first signal and displays the first graphical representation on the electronic display. When the aerial device is in the second position, the computer control system generates a second graphical representation of the current operating ability of the aerial device in response to the second signal and displays the second graphical representation on the electronic display.
