  • Publication number: 20230350398
    Abstract: An industrial machine diagnostic system includes a communication interface in communication with a database storing diagnostic information related to one or more industrial machines, a database storing user profile information, and a user device configured to transmit a diagnostic request for a machine. A data analysis and recommendation component is in communication with the communication interface and includes one or more processors and a non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions. The instructions instruct the processor to process the request to extract one or more request data elements, extract one or more diagnostic data elements, extract one or more profile data elements, determine a diagnostic recommendation based on analysis of the one or more request data elements, the one or more diagnostic data elements, and the one or more profile data elements, and output one or more diagnostic recommendations to the user.

  • Patent number: 11466638
    Abstract: An engine diagnostic system includes a control system having a controller operatively connected to an engine. A monitoring system has a sensor operatively connected to the engine. A diagnostic system is operatively connected to the engine. The diagnostic system is configured to implement a sensor diagnostic procedure that includes a sensor health test. The sensor health test includes comparing a measured value of a sensor to an expected value and determining the health of the sensor based on the difference between the measured value and the expected value. The sensor diagnostic procedure can also include telematics data analysis.

  • Patent number: 11233713
    Abstract: A system and method for diagnosing connection and communication in an industrial machine includes performing a software check to obtain software data related to software applications, performing a connectivity check to obtain connection status data for one or more controllers, and performing a CAN bus check to obtain CAN bus data. The software data, connection status data, and CAN bus data is analyzed to determine a likely cause of an industrial machine connection or communication issue. A solution to the industrial machine connection or communication issue is output to a technician based on the analyzed data.
