    Remote Equipment Probing and Monitoring
       Remote equipment probing and monitoring is the base of remote control and/or e-diagnosis. In many cases, the equipments that need to be probed are widely scattered in many places, usually several miles away from the control center.

     

     
      The conventional ways  
    For off-site equipment with self-testing features:
     
    • Scheduled self-testing, real-time data transmission to database at control center, scheduled result monitoring at control center.
    • Scheduled self-testing, real-time data transmission to database at field, scheduled result monitoring at control center.
     
      For off-site equipment without self-testing features:  
     
    • Staff needs to bring testing equipment to testing sites for regular check rounds.
    • Control center needs to run testing programs periodically to check off-site plant status.
     
     
       Figure 1. Remote Equipment Probing and Monitoring in conventional ways
     
      These conventional ways have several serious defects:  
     
    • Delay in result collection, limited space in Field database and high level of weather resistance is required.
    • Massive waste in bandwidth and run time. The more check points are, the worse the delay is.
     
         
      The iPush® Embedded ways  
      For off-site equipment with self-testing features:  
     
    • Equipments self-test periodically and transmitting result through iPushR Embedded back to the control center in real-time, and store it into database at the same time.
     
      For off-site equipment without self-testing features:  
     
    • Install testing program into WinCon-8000 for scheduled testing and send real-time result back to control center.
     
     
       Figure 2. Remote Equipment Probing and Monitoring in iPush® Embedded ways with scheduled testing
     
      Otherwise, staff can also run the testing program on WinCon-8000 to get real-time result and send the data back to control center through iPushR Embedded.

      Benefits with iPushR Embedded in WinCon-8000  
     
    1. When abnormal results occur, real-time alarm notification prevents further damage.
    2. Control center receive real-time test result.
    3. Does not have to repeat handshaking and transmitting, so it will saves huge amount of bandwidth and time.
     
      Examples  
     
    1. Civil Defense: Air-alert broadcasting network equipments monitoring.
    2. Hydraulic engineering: Dam sluicing alert broadcasting network equipments monitoring.
    3. Telecom: Scattered unmanned facilities monitoring system.
    4. Water, gas pipelines: Urban pipelines instruments and/or control equipments monitoring.
    5. Manufacturing: Manufacturing equipments monitoring.
    6. Power industry: High-voltage power equipments (e.g. power line, connector, transformer, substation, !Ketc.).
