1. An automated machine system, comprising:
a power unit, comprising:
a mobility system including a steering system and a propulsion system, an implement connection system including a hitch and a power output;
a control unit comprising a control unit processor and a control unit memory, which stores a power unit profile, a connection profile and a mission plan,
a machine actuator system having a steering control, a speed control and a power output control, and
an automation sensor;
an implement, comprising an implement connection system including a hitch frame;
wherein the mission plan includes a path plan, power unit operation instructions and implement operation instructions;
wherein the connection profile includes modifications for the power unit operation instructions and wherein the connection profile also includes implement operation translations, which convert the implement operation instructions into operation instructions for the power unit to run the implement;
wherein the control unit processor executes the mission plan using the power unit profile and the connection profile, wherein, when the control unit identifies one of the power unit operation instructions from the mission plan and determines that the connection profile includes a corresponding implement modification, the control unit modifies the power unit operation instruction based on a corresponding one of the modifications for the power unit operation instruction and executes a modified power unit operation, and
wherein, when the control unit identifies one of the implement operation instructions, the control unit applies a corresponding one of the implement operation translations and executes a corresponding one of the operation instructions for the power unit.
