Abstract
Systems and methods for controlling and monitoring agricultural equipment. The system includes a monitoring module that communicates with a remote user device to remotely turn a wind machine on or off.
Claims18
A system for monitoring and controlling a wind machine, the system comprising:
- a transceiver adapted to wirelessly communicate with a remote user device;
- a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and configured to receive instructions from and/or transmit data to the remote user device using the transceiver;
- and
- a connector operatively coupled to the processor and a controller of a wind machine, the connector comprising:
- a circuit configured to:
- receive a voltage input being either a grounded voltage input or a floating voltage input as determined by the processor;
- and
- convert the voltage input to a current output such that the current output mimics an electrical parameter of the controller;
- wherein the grounded voltage input creates a first current output that mimics a first electrical parameter, which signals the controller to stop an engine of the wind machine;
- and
- wherein the floating voltage input creates a second current output that mimics a second electrical parameter, which signals the controller to start the engine of the wind machine.
