Patent ID: 11487264

Abstract:
The invention relates to a control system for automatically monitoring machine tasks and workflows performed by agriculture, mining or construction machines, comprising a computer for enabling a user to configure sensors and actuators and for reading sensor and actuator signals as sensor values and actuator statuses, a hardware interface for connecting the computer to an installed sensor and actuator network having a plurality of sensors and actuators, and a software configuration tool with a software interface, wherein the software interface enables a user to enter configuration instructions for instructing the computer, to configure a user-specifically customizable transformed sensor based on amending a sensor value and/or actuator status of a sensor and/or actuator of the sensor and actuator network and machine task based on logically linking sensor values, transformed sensor values and actuator statuses, wherein the user-specific customizability is enabled by providing a selectability, linkability and conditionability of sensor values, transformed sensor values and actuator statuses as variables, wherein at least two variables are logically linked and wherein at least one variable is conditioned based on using relational operators.
