Abstract: A novel apparatus and method for micro-computer control of lubrication systems which utilizes a micro-computer that receives input signals from a lubrication station indicative of the level of lubricant, the pressure of the lubricant, the number of lube cycles and/or strokes of the machine or lubricating system which are furnished to the micro-computer that also receives inputs from program, monitor, system cycle and control switches and supplies output signals so as to actuate the lubricating system on a periodic predetermined base. In addition, the micro-computer produces fault signals so as to protect the machine or machines being lubricated in the event a fault occurs.
