Abstract: A system includes a control system and a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU). The control system is configured to communicate data with one or more field devices via the RTU. The RTU includes a motor configured to vibrate the RTU unit. The RTU also includes an acceleration sensor configured to measure an acceleration of the RTU. The RTU also includes an I/O module configured to transmit a displacement computing by the acceleration of the RTU.
