System for monitoring optimal equipment operating parameters
First Claim
1. A set-point monitoring system in communication with a controller of a remote system having at least one piece of equipment operating at an associated set-point, the set-point monitoring system comprising:
- a monitor in communication with the controller and the at least one piece of equipment, said monitor monitoring a present value of the associated set-point and compares said present value to a previous value of said associated set-point.

Abstract
A system for monitoring equipment operating parameters of a remote system includes a monitor that communicates with a controller of the remote system, and at least one piece of equipment operable within the remote system, and that communicates with the controller. The equipment has at least one associated operating parameter. The monitor compares a present value of the associated operating parameter to a previous value to determine a difference therebetween. The difference is associated with a cost, measuring the cost of operating the equipment at the present operating parameter.

21. A method of monitoring optimal equipment set-points of a plurality of remote systems, comprising:
-
monitoring set-points associated with equipment of the plurality of remote systems;
comparing present values of said set-points to corresponding previous values;
indicating respective changes if said present values are different than said previous values; and
communicating said present values and said previous values of said set-points to a monitoring system. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
