摘要

The nature of the stoppage is classified within the machine control for the required specialist service to be summoned with a given priority according to the nature of the problem at the machine control. The process control computer collects the signals from a number of machines and arranges them in a priority order and stores the status and actions at each machine in memory as a log book. The alarm call includes the location of the alarm and the nature of the stoppage. ADVANTAGE - The system gives an order of priorities for stoppages to be cleared, so that the appts. is given the max. working time.
