The controller is configured to detect the input for selecting the heating mode and, responsive to detecting the input: (i) determine a selected heating mode based on the input, (ii) cause the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material according to the selected heating mode, and (iii) cause the indicator assembly to indicate that the device is ready for use within a predetermined period of time after causing the heater assembly to begin heating the aerosol generating material.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for remotely monitoring liquid lubricant levels for pump equipment. A system includes a reservoir to store lubricant and a lubrication gland to expose a shaft seal of the pump equipment to the lubricant. A feed line and a return line circulate the lubricant between the reservoir and the lubrication gland. A level sensor is configured to measure a fluid level in the reservoir. The level sensor uses a communication interface to transmit fluid level data a monitoring device mounted to the pump equipment. The monitoring device is configured to compare the fluid level data against stored alert thresholds and send, to a provider network, an alert signal when the fluid level data is below an alert threshold. If the fluid level data is not below an alert threshold, the monitoring device stores the fluid level data for periodic reporting.
