1. A system comprising:

  • a cycle sensor comprising a first magnet, the cycle sensor configured to be coupled to a machine press, wherein the cycle sensor is configured to detect a cycle of the machine press; and

    a base station comprising at least one processor, wherein the base station is configured with computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the base station to at least;

    process a first signal received from the cycle sensor;

    transmit a start message to a server over a network and start a timer in response to reception of the first signal, wherein the start message indicates that the machine press has started running;

    process a second signal received from the cycle sensor after the first signal;

    reset the timer in response to reception of the second signal;

    determine that no signal has been received from the cycle sensor during a threshold period of time after reception of the second signal in response to expiration of the timer; and

    transmit an end message to the server over the network in response to the determination that no signal has been received from the cycle sensor during the threshold period of time after the reception of the second signal, wherein the end message indicates that the machine press has stopped running.
