Abstract
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, systems and methods for transferring data over a network include communicating with a user via a portable communication device over the network, receiving a request for at least one instruction sequence related to a particular repair task of a machine from the user via the portable communication device over the network, processing the request from the user by accessing and retrieving the at least one instruction sequence from a database component, and transferring the at least one instruction sequence from the database component to the portable communication device.
Claims20
A system for transferring data over a network, the system comprising:
- a database component for storing one or more instruction sequences for a plurality of tasks related to repairing a machine;
- a communication component adapted to communicate with a user via a portable communication device over the network;
- and
- a processing component adapted to receive a request for at least one instruction sequence related to a particular repair task of the machine from the user via the portable communication device over the network and process the request from the user by accessing and retrieving the at least one instruction sequence from the database component,
- wherein the communication component transfers the at least one instruction sequence from the database component to the portable communication device for viewing by the user.
A method for transferring data over a network, the method comprising:
- communicating with a user via a portable communication device over the network;
- receiving a request for at least one instruction sequence related to a particular repair task of a machine from the user via the portable communication device over the network;
- processing the request from the user by accessing and retrieving the at least one instruction sequence from a database component;
- and
- transferring the at least one instruction sequence from the database component to the portable communication device.
A system for transferring data over a network, the system comprising:
- means for communicating with a user via a portable communication device over the network;
- means for receiving a request for at least one instruction sequence related to a particular repair task of a machine from the user via the portable communication device over the network;
- means for processing the request from the user by accessing and retrieving the at least one instruction sequence from a database component;
- and
- means for transferring the at least one instruction sequence from the database component to the portable communication device.
Software encoded in one or more computer readable media and when executed operable to transfer data over a network, the software further operable to:
- communicate with a user via a portable communication device over the network;
- receive a request for at least one instruction sequence related to a particular repair task of a machine from the user via the portable communication device over the network;
- process the request from the user by accessing and retrieving the at least one instruction sequence from a database component;
- and
- transfer the at least one instruction sequence from the database component to the portable communication device.
