Method and system for operating machines
First Claim
1. A method for operating at least one of a machine or a component of the machine, comprising:
- collecting machine data from the at least one of the machine or the machine component over a communications network, the machine data including data reflecting at least one operational parameter associated with the at least one of the machine or the machine component;
determining that the at least one of the machine or the machine component is in an abnormal condition based on the collected machine data; and
derating the at least one of the machine or the machine component based on determining that the at least one of the machine or the machine component is in the abnormal condition.

Abstract
A method for operating a machine and/or a component of the machine includes collecting machine data from the machine and/or machine component over a communications network. The machine data includes data reflecting at least one operational parameter associated with the machine and/or machine component. The method also includes determining that the machine and/or machine component is in an abnormal condition based on the collected machine data, and derating the machine and/or machine component based on determining that the machine and/or machine component is in the abnormal condition.

15. A system for operating at least one of a machine or a component of the machine, comprising:
a service center configured to; collect and store machine data from the at least one of the machine or the machine component over a communications network, the machine data including data reflecting at least one operational parameter associated with the at least one of the machine or the machine component, determine that the at least one of the machine or the machine component is in an abnormal condition based on the collected machine data, and send a command to derate the at least one of the machine or the machine component based on the determining that the at least one of the machine or the machine component is in the abnormal condition. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
