The data is transmitted over the network to a data center where it is shared with appropriate users and displayed in various systems including customer operating systems. Additional features include on-demand diagnostics and troubleshooting; preventive maintenance alerts based on real-world operating conditions that help reduce unexpected failures; machine maintenance history; operating system integration; geo fencing; and GPS location with mapping on various levels (local, regional, national).
