Abstract
A sensor unit, a control method, and a recording medium are provided for reducing data amount of failure diagnosis data while detecting a failure of a device performing work while moving more reliably. The disclosure includes an output limiting part outputting the failure diagnosis data only for a period in which an absolute value of the acceleration is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold.
Claims11
A sensor unit, outputting failure diagnosis data for detecting a failure of a device performing work while moving, the sensor unit comprising:
- an acceleration sensor measuring acceleration related to the moving;
- a period specifying part specifying a period in which an absolute value of the acceleration is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold;
- and
- an output limiting part outputting the failure diagnosis data only in the period.
A control method of a sensor unit comprising an acceleration sensor that measures acceleration related to moving of a device performing a task while moving, and outputting failure diagnosis data for detecting a failure of the device, the control method comprising:
- specifying a period in which an absolute value of the acceleration is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold;
- and
- outputting the failure diagnosis data only in the period.
