Patent ID: 7603586

Claim:
Stationary power equipment comprising: a sensing device configured to collect data associated with an operation of the stationary power equipment; a data storage device configured to store the collected data, and to pre-store machine-readable instructions corresponding to specific operational errors; a communication device configured to couple to a data transmission network; and a data processing device configured to perform the steps of: causing the communication device to transmit signals via the data transmission network in a wireless manner, wherein the transmitted signals include information derived from the collected data associated with the operation of the equipment; receiving data sent from a remote system via the data transmission network, wherein the data is selected based on information derived from the transmitted signals; and modifying an operation of the power equipment based on the data received from the remote system; wherein, responsive to the information derived from the data collected by the sensing device indicating an error of the stationary power equipment, the data processing device executes the machine-readable instructions pre-stored on the data storage device for initiating a diagnostic process for performing a fix procedure to cure the error.
