Data acquisition unit for remote monitoring system and method for remote monitoring

摘要

A remote monitoring system has a central computer system and at least one data acquisition unit for collecting data from a machine to be monitored. The data acquisition unit includes an on-site computer system having a central processor and an auxiliary processor. The data acquisition unit further includes one or more sensors for generating a process data signal and one or more sensors for generating a dynamic data signal. The process data signal is fed to the central processor and the auxiliary processor, and the dynamic data signal is fed to the auxiliary processor. A communication link connects the central computer system and the on-site computer system.
