  • Publication number: 20060025967
    Abstract: A replaceable component life tracking method and system for multi-operating mode systems having replaceable components with variable wear rates that depend on the system operating mode. The method tracks system use and replaceable component life using a common predetermined parameter, and uses a different predetermined replaceable component wear rate, when necessary, for each replaceable component for each operating mode. The predetermined wear rate for each replaceable component in each operating mode is factored into the accumulated use of each replaceable component in each operating mode before computing the overall accumulated life of each replaceable component.
