Patent ID: 7184905

Claim:
A system for remotely monitoring electrical power supplies, comprising: a plurality of individual input modules each connected to a respective power source and having means to receive an analog voltage input and to convert said analog signal to a digital form, each said input module is used for DC battery voltage and DC charger/bus voltage, DC amperage at the DC bus, AC input voltage sensing, and both individual battery temperature and ambient temperature sensing, the different voltage ranges and type of voltage are programmed on system requirements; central controller means connected to collect data from each input module and, at scheduled intervals, send that data to web server means containing primary system software capable of performing data comparisons, charting trends, predicting failures, planning and scheduling service visits, and archiving data for future reference, said software also providing near real time reports, regular monthly reports, and alarm notifications which can be sent via E-mail, telephone land lines, cell phone, PDA, or pager.
