Abstract
One embodiment includes a monitor module for a first device, wherein the first device is configured to obtain measurement data from a second device, to compare the measurement data to a reference value, and to send a signal when the measurement data in comparison to the reference indicates an error condition. Machine learning can be used, where a head-end is capable of modifying the second device when the reference value so indicates. This enables various embodiments to fix the second device without human intervention.
Claims19
An instrument management device comprising:
- a first device comprising a circuitry;
- and a second device, wherein the circuitry is configured to:
- receive a signal from the second device based on a comparison between measurement data and a reference value, wherein the measurement data is compared to the reference value to indicate an error condition;
- generate one or more recommendations associated with the error condition by using a cause and effect table, the cause and effect table comprising a data structure having at least one row and at least one column, wherein the cause and effect table includes a weighting factor associated with each error that originates from the second device and a weighting factor associated with each possible error cause of each error, the first device accessing a data item from one of the rows or one of the columns of the cause and effect table;
- send the one or more recommendations including the data item, to obtain a resolution of the error condition by altering a state of the second device, and generate a data package associated with the resolution of the error condition;
- use the data package to determine whether to update the cause and effect table;
- and
- alter the data item in one of the rows or one of the columns based on a feedback to update the cause and effect table.
