Additionally, it will be appreciated that embodiments of the present description may employ any combination of the features described herein.
    [014] Figure 1 is a block diagram of a system 100 for obtaining and maintaining maintenance records in accordance with the aspects of this description. System 100 includes at least one asset 104 to be tested (also referred to herein as device under test 104 or DUT 104) and one or more measurement devices 108 configured to measure one or more parameters of DUT 104. For example, each of the measurement devices 108 may include one or more sensors, probes, etc., to measure one or more parameters of a DUT 104. It will be appreciated that the measurement device 108 can be installed in situ in the DUT 104 or can be brought into the DUT 104 by the user, such as a technician. DUT 104 can include any equipment, device, circuit, structure, component, and the like having at least one parameter that can be tested by a measurement device. In some embodiments, DUT 104 can include, but is not limited to, a pump, motor, transistor, cable, switch, circuit breaker, generator, transformer, energy storage source, etc. In a non-limiting example used throughout the description, the DUT 104 includes an electric motor. The measurement device 108 may be a measurement and/or calibration device, including, but not limited to, a multimeter, oscilloscope, thermal imaging system, thermometer, calibration tool, cable tester, etc. In this regard, the one or more parameters to be measured by DUT 104 may include electrical parameters, temperature, pressure, visible or invisible light waves (including images) and the like. In the non-limiting examples used throughout the description, the measurement devices 108 are a digital multimeter and a thermal imaging system.
    [015] The system 100 also includes at least one computing device 112 configured to be coupled in communication with the measurement devices 108. Each computing device 112 can be coupled in communication with the measurement devices 108 via any of the protocols wireless or wired communication tools known or further developed. In some embodiments, computing device 112 and measurement devices 108 can be configured to be coupled via Near Field protocols, Infrared protocols, Bluetooth protocols, IEEE 802 protocols, etc. As will be explained in more detail below, the computing device 112 in one embodiment can be wirelessly coupled in communication with the measuring device 108 by placing the computing device 112 in proximity to the measuring device 108. computing device 112 is configured to receive data, such as measurement data, from measurement device 108 over the wireless (or wired) communication link. In some embodiments, computing device 112 can be, for example, a mobile computing device such as a tablet or smartphone, personal computing device, a laptop computing device, a personal digital assistant, and the like.
    [016] The computing device 112 is also coupled in communication with a maintenance service provider 124 over a network 116 using any suitable wired and/or wireless communication protocol, including satellite, cellular and Internet protocols. Network 116 can be a Local Area Network (LAN), a large network such as a Wide Area Network (WAN), or a collection of networks such as the Internet. In this regard, computing device 112 may be configured to provide measured data received from metering device 108 to maintenance service provider 124 via network 116. Similarly, computing device 112 may be configured to receive data from maintenance service provider 124 over network 116. In one embodiment, computing device 112 is configured to communicate with metering device 108 over network 116 or other communication systems described herein. Although in the illustrated embodiment, maintenance service provider 124 may be coupled to computing device 112 via the same network 116 by which metering device 108 is coupled to computing device 112, it should be appreciated that the network coupling the device The computing device 112 to the maintenance service provider 124 can be distinguished from the network by coupling the computing device 112 to the metering device 108.
    [017] Generally described, maintenance service provider 124 may include one or more interconnected computing devices (not shown), such as personal computers, server computers, embedded computing devices, mobile computing devices, and the like. It is appreciated that each of the computing devices may include a variety of hardware components and program modules for operation, which will not be described in detail here in the interest of brevity. Maintenance service provider 124 may additionally include or be coupled to one or more data stores 128 for storing data such as measurement data received from computing device 112.
    [018] In the illustrated embodiment, the maintenance service provider 124 and the computing device 112 are further coupled to the technical support 132 via the network 116. The maintenance service provider 124 can be configured to initiate contact with the technical support 132 and provide adequate information to enable tech support 132 to be put into communication with computing device 112. For example, tech support 132 may be configured to send texts or emails to computing device 112 via network 116 at response to a request from maintenance service provider 124. It should be appreciated that technical support 132 is optional. In some embodiments, technical support 132 may also be integrated with maintenance service provider 124.
    [019] Turning now to Figure 2, a block diagram of a component architecture representing an example of a coupling device 112 is illustrated. The computing device 112 includes hardware components such as a central processing unit (CPU) or processor 240, communication circuitry 244, I/O interface 248, and memory 250, suitably interconnected via one or more buses 252. Depending on the exact configuration and type of computing device, memory 250 may include system memory in the form of volatile or non-volatile memory, such as read-only memory ("ROM"), random access memory ("RAM"), EEPROM, flash memory, or similar memory technology. Those skilled in the art and others will recognize that system memory typically stores data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or currently being operated by processor 240. In that regard, processor 240 serves as a computing center of the device. of computation 112 by supporting the execution of instructions.
    [020] Memory 250 may also include storage memory. Storage memory can be any volatile or non-volatile, removable or non-removable memory implemented using any technology capable of storing information. Examples of storage memory include, but are not limited to, a hard disk, a solid state drive, CD ROM, DVD, or other disk storage, magnetic tapes, magnetic disk storage, and the like. Information stored in storage memory includes, but is not limited to, program modules and data to be accessed by processor 240. Generally, program modules may include routines, applications, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. It will be appreciated that the system memory and storage memory described herein are merely examples of a computer readable storage medium.
    [021] In the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2, the memory 250 stores an operating system 254 to control the operation of the computing device 112. In one embodiment of the description, the operating system 254 provides a graphical operating environment, such as Microsoft's WINDOWS® Corporation or WINDOWS® Mobile, LINUX, Google's Android, Apple's Blackberry, or Leopard's OS, or the iOS mobile graphical operating system, etc., where enabled applications or program modules are represented as one or more graphical application windows with a visible user interface, such as a graphical user interface (GUI). To interact with computing device 112, input/output interface 248 may include a variety of components that allow computing device 112 to obtain inputs from and provide outputs to a user and/or other devices. Input/output interface 248 may include, but is not limited to, a monitor, such as an LCD monitor, an LPD, OLED, etc., a keyboard, hard or soft keyboards, a touch screen, controls, physical buttons, roller wheels, a digital pen, trackballs, joystick, etc. In one embodiment, the monitor, such as monitor 270, can be configured as a touch screen. I/O interface 248 also receives input from, and in some embodiments can provide output to, measurement devices 108.
    [022] Memory 250 also stores a measurement device and service provider interface 256 which when executed by processor 240, provides functionality to computing device 112. Such functionality may include, but is not limited to interactions with one or more measuring devices 108, receiving measurement data from the measuring device 108, sending and receiving data, such as the measurement data and historical data, to/from the maintenance service provider 124, associating the measurement data with a DUT in particular 104, obtaining a maintenance route for obtaining measurement data from a plurality of DUTs 104, etc. For that purpose, interface 256 may include one or more applications or program modules, which may be written in a programming language such as C, C++, COBOL, JAVA™, PHP, Perl, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, VBScript, ASPX, Microsoft.NET® languages such as C# and/or similar. It will be appreciated that the functionality of the service provider interface 256 may be split between multiple program modules or sub-modules. As will be described in greater detail below, execution of interface 256 by processor 240 in some embodiments generates one or more user interfaces having one or more interface elements. In some embodiments, the one or more user interfaces are presented to the user through monitor 270 in a hierarchical fashion.
    [023] Still referring to Figure 2, the communication circuit assembly 244 comprises one or more components for communicating directly with the measuring device 108 or indirectly with the measuring device 108 through the network 116 using any of the communication protocols wired or wireless. The one or more components of communication circuitry 244 may also be employed to communicate with maintenance service provider 124 and/or technical support 132, etc. Components may include modems, transmitter/receiver and/or transceiver circuitry for carrying out communications over one or more networks. To communicate wirelessly, communication circuitry 244 may include one or more suitable antennas (not shown). For ease of illustration, Figure 2 does not show analog-to-digital converters, digital-to-analog converters, amplifiers, device drivers, etc. that would typically be included with the communication circuit assembly. However, since these and other components that can be included with the communication circuitry are known in the art, they may not be described in detail here.
    [024] The functionality of interface 256 will now be described in greater detail. In some embodiments, the interface 256 allows the computing device 112 to be wirelessly coupled to a metering device 108 (FIG. 1) when the computing device 112 is located in proximity to the metering device 108. metering devices 108 include a communication interface 140, including a transmitter, a transceiver, and/or the like, configured to couple with the computing device 112 and to transmit signals thereto. When computing device 112 is in proximity to metering device 108, interface 256 causes communication circuitry 244 to perform a coupling or "handover" process so that computing device 112 can receive an or further signals from the measuring device 108, thus associating the computing device 112 with the measuring device 108. The coupling process may be automatic or user-initiated via a switch, graphical user interface element or the like. In a non-limiting modality, the computing device 112 and the measuring device 108 are configured to be paired through Bluetooth® and/or the like.
    [025] Once coupled, the computing device 112 can be configured, via the interface 256, to receive measurement data from the measurement device 108. The measurement data can be provided from the measurement device 108 to the device of computing 112 via wireless communication established by placing the computing device 112 in proximity to the metering device 108, via the network 116, or via another communication network. In particular, measurement device 108 is configured to provide measurement data or other data generated by measurement device 108 to computing device 112. Although only one computing device and one measurement device are illustrated, it should be appreciated that a plurality of computing devices can be configured to associate with a plurality of measurement devices.
    [026] The interface 256 also allows the computing device 112 to communicate with the maintenance service provider 124 over the network 116. In this regard, the maintenance service provider 124 can be configured to send data and receive data from the computing device 112. Via interface 256, computing device 112 may be further configured to access a helpdesk and a maintenance library stored in data store 128 of maintenance service provider 124. The maintenance library may include maintenance data such as an asset taxonomy, measurement data, reference data, maintenance operator comments, high priority measurements required, common asset issues, etc.
    [027] As understood by those skilled in the art, a "data store" as described herein may be any suitable device configured to store data for access by a computing device. An example of a data store is a high-speed, highly reliable relational database management system (DBMS) running one or more computing devices and accessible over a high-speed packet-switched network. However, any other suitable storage technique and/or device capable of quickly and reliably providing the data stored in response to surveys can be used, and the computing device can be accessible locally rather than over a network, or it can be accessible via some other suitable network type or provided as a cloud-based service. A data store also includes data stored in an organized manner on a storage medium known in the art. Those skilled in the art will recognize that any separate data stores described herein may be combined into a single data store and/or any single data store described herein may be separated into multiple data stores, without departing from the scope of the present description.
    [028] The 256 interface additionally allows the manipulation of the data received from the measuring device 108 and maintenance service see 124, in addition to creating records. For example, interface 256 can be configured to create, in some modalities, dictate and store records for multiple DUTs 104A to N. The records created can include asset name, asset type, measurement data received from a measurement device in particular, length of service, maintenance staff comments, and other information related to the maintenance of goods. The created records may be provided to maintenance service provider 124 for storage in data store 128. Additionally, interface 256 may be configured to access pre-stored records for various assets stored in data store 128 of the maintenance service provider. maintenance 124 and transmitted to the computing device 112. The stored records may be downloaded by the computing device 112 or sequenced to the computing device 112. In such a case, the computing device 112 may also include audio/video converters/decoders and/or other suitable circuitry for device and/or software in order to view the maintenance service provider's sequencing data 124. The stored records may include data analyzed from a plurality of stored records, such as data from historical measurement, trends, reference data, and the like. In some embodiments, interface 256 may be further configured to edit previously stored records for various assets stored in data store 128 of maintenance service provider 124.
    [029] Interface 256 may also allow a user to associate the measurement data received from the measurement device 108 with the DUT 104 from which the measurement data was obtained. To that end, interface 256 can provide a graphical listing of a plurality of assets that a user can select as a DUT. In some embodiments, each asset is associated with an asset record in memory 250 of computing device 112 or stored in data store 128 of maintenance service provider 124. The asset record may include information such as type of asset, name, location, serial number and route. In one embodiment, the goods plurality list comprises a list of goods at a particular location. Accordingly, measurement data can be associated with the DUT (ie the good for which the measurement data was obtained) by selecting one of the goods from the list or by selecting a good record. In other embodiments, measurement data may be associated with DUT 104 from data obtained by an automated system 274, such as bar code scanners, optical character recognition, RFID, and the like. In some embodiments, computing device 112 includes such automated systems, and in other embodiments, automated systems are coupled to computing device 112 via suitable wired or wireless communication protocols.
    [030] In some embodiments, measurement data can be associated with DUT 104 before computing device 112 receives measurement data from measurement device 108. For example, an asset record corresponding to DUT can be selected or created before the receiving the measurement data from the measurement device 108, thus associating the measurement data subsequently received with the DUT 104. In other modalities the measurement data must be associated with the asset 104 before receiving the measurement data from the management device 108. For example, after receiving measurement data, the associated asset record can be created, selected, etc., thus associating the received measurement data with DUT 104.
    [031] Interface 256 can additionally provide a graphical list of goods to be tested (DUT 104). In particular, interface 256 may provide the identity and/or location of each of the goods on the list. For example, interface 256 may include a graphical map illustrating each asset to be tested in a particular environment. In some embodiments, interface 256 may additionally indicate the order in which each good is to be tested. Figure 20 is a representative interface illustrating an example of a maintenance route, as will be described in more detail below.
    [032] As briefly described above, one or more modalities of interface 256 can generate one or more interfaces for presentation to a user, such as a technician or similar. In some embodiments, implementation of interface 256 allows for a navigation interface 510 on monitor 270 (see Figure 2). An example of the navigation interface is illustrated in Figure 5. The navigation interface 510 can combine multiple types of information to provide an integrated view of stored data and data to be collected within system 100 in an organized and efficient manner. Navigation interface 510 can provide functionality that guides the user through maintenance-related activities or calibration information obtained and maintained by system 100.
    [033] In the embodiment of Figure 5, the navigation interface 510 includes a plurality of interface elements, such as icons, hyperlinks, etc. The interface elements in a modality can include one or more of the following in any combination: Imaging interface element 514; Browser interface element 516; Goods 518 interface element; Routes 520 interface tool; Help interface element 522; 521 Library interface element; Connection device interface element 524; Compare image interface element 526; View data interface element 528; between others. Upon execution of one of the interface elements, another associated interface will be presented through the display for user interaction.
    [034] Figures 6 to 20 show examples of other associated interfaces that can be presented through the monitor for user interaction. Figure 6 is an example of a Connecting device interface 610 that is generated by interface 256 and presented to the user through monitor 270 by triggering, for example, Connecting device interface element 524 in Figure 5. As best illustrated in Figure 6, the Connect devices interface 610 includes interface elements that include, for example, a Connect interface element 614, a Disconnect interface element 616, an Add file interface element 618, an Add to Image 620 interface element, etc. In one embodiment, actuation of Connector interface element 614 causes communication circuitry 244 to perform a coupling or "handover" process so that computing device 112 can receive one or more signals from a communication device. measurement device, such as measurement device 108, which is next to computing device 112. Once coupled, computing device 112 is associated with measurement device 108.
    [035] In other embodiments, the Connecting Devices interface 610 may also include a list 630 of one or more measurement devices that can be selected by the user for the mating process. List 630 can be represented as words, icons, combinations, etc. In some embodiments, list 630 can be historically generated, a pre-stored list in memory 250, the four previously coupled measuring devices, for example, or the list can be a list of all measuring devices that are close to the device. of computing 112 and are capable of being coupled to it. The Connector devices interface 610 may additionally present one or more of the signals indicative of measurement data received from a measurement device graphically as indicated at 640. The Connector devices interface 610 may also include navigation interface elements that include, for example, a Source interface element 652, a Back interface element 654, a Next interface element 656, a Done 658 interface element, and so on.
    [036] Figure 7A is an example of a Library 710 interface that is generated by the 256 interface and presented to the user through the 270 monitor by activating, for example, the Library 521 interface element in figure 5. How better illustrated in Figure 7A, among other things, Library interface 710 may include one or more images 712A-N of a DUT, such as an electric motor, and/or information 718 in the form of text, etc. of the property in question, and/or similar. In the example illustrated in Figure 7, the information can include common maintenance issues with the DUT, service or general test information, normal operating parameters of the DUT, etc. The Library interface 510 also includes navigation interface elements that include, for example, Source interface element 722, Back interface element 724, Next interface element 726, Done interface element 728, etc.
    [037] Figure 7B is another example of a Library 760 interface that is generated by the 256 interface and presented to the user through the 270 monitor. The Library 760 interface can be generated by activating, for example, the interface element of Library 521 in Figure 5, triggering other interface elements, such as the Next 726 interface element (see Figure 7A), among others. In either case, the Library interface 760 may include one or more images 764A-N of an asset, such as an electric motor, and/or information 770 in the form of text, etc., of the asset in question and/or the like. In the example illustrated in Fig. 7B, information 770 may be in the form of maintenance problems common to the DUT, although other information may alternatively or additionally be presented.
    [038] Figure 8 is an example of an interface of Goods 810 that is generated by the interface 256 and presented to the user through the monitor 270 by activating, for example, the interface element of Goods 518 in figure 5.
