A method for monitoring automatic mechanical devices selected from at least one of automatic doors and automatic dock equipment located at a commercial site. The method may include installing, at the commercial site, a plurality of internet-of-things (IoT) monitoring devices. Each of the IoT monitoring devices may include a plurality of connectors corresponding to respective data communication standards, and a wireless transceiver configured to transmit operational information. Electronic communication between each automatic mechanical device and one of the IoT monitoring devices may be established via one of the connectors. A device profile may be assigned for each of the automatic mechanical devices. Each device profiles defines a respective connector and combination of manufacturer and device model. Data reflecting operational events and states of the automatic mechanical devices is received over the connectors, and corresponding operational information relating to the automatic mechanical devices is transmitted for analysis.
A method of monitoring a plurality of automatic mechanical devices selected from at least one of automatic doors and automatic dock equipment located at a commercial site, each of the automatic mechanical devices including an integral controller with a communication port, the method comprising:
A system for monitoring a plurality of automatic mechanical devices selected from at least one of automatic doors and automatic dock equipment and located across a plurality of commercial sites, each of the automatic mechanical devices including an integral controller with a communication port pre-configured for electronic communication according to a controller data communication standard, the system comprising:
