Abstract:
An email message is automatically generated when a sensor monitoring a machine detects a predetermined machine condition, such as a fault condition. When a predetermined condition is sensed, the sensor signals a local computer unit which, in turn, generates an email message that identifies the sensor, machine and site in the address of the email message. The email address for the sensor is included in the addressee line of the message. Accordingly, the addressor line of the message identifies the sensor that detected the machine condition, the machine on which the sensor is mounted and the plant location for the machine.
