Abstract
In a particular embodiment, the disclosure is directed to a system including a data management system configured to receive sensor data associated with a sensor, a monitoring system coupled to the data management system, and an alert handling system responsive to the data management system and configured to access an alert profile associated with an error object provided by the monitoring system. The monitoring system is configured to provide the error object in response to a monitoring algorithm associated with the sensor data received by the data management system.
Claims42
A system comprising:
- a data management system configured to receive sensor data associated with a sensor;
- a monitoring system coupled to the data management system, the monitoring system configured to provide an error object in response to a monitoring algorithm associated with the sensor data;
- and
- an alert handling system responsive to the data management system and configured to access an alert profile associated with the error object provided by the monitoring system.
A monitoring appliance comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory responsive to the processor, the memory including:
- computer implemented instructions operable by the processor to implement a data management system configured to receive sensor data associated with a sensor;
- computer implemented instructions operable by the processor to implement a monitoring system coupled to the data management system, the monitoring system configured to provide an error object in response to a monitoring algorithm associated with the sensor data;
- and
- computer implemented instructions operable by the processor to implement an alert handling system responsive to the data management system and configured to access an alert profile associated with the error object provided by the monitoring system.
The monitoring appliance of claims 16, wherein the alert profile initiates a communication via the network interface.
An interface comprising:
- an alert action interface configured to receive data associated with an alert action;
- an alert profile interface configured to associate an alert profile sequence with an alert profile, the alert profile sequence associated with the alert action, the alert profile responsive to an error object;
- and
- a sensor configuration interface configured to associate condition logic with sensor data, the condition logic configured to produce the error object in response to the sensor data.
A method of alert processing, the method comprising:
- generating an error object in response to a change in sensor data;
- initiating an alert profile sequence in response to the error object;
- and
- performing an alert action in response to the alert profile sequence.
