WIRELESS USER INTERFACE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE MONITORING
First Claim
1. A user interface system for controlling a process, wherein the process is implemented in a machine system, comprising:
- a user interface configured to receive user input to control the process of the machine system;
a first transceiver coupled to the user interface and configured to provide user power to the user interface, wherein the first transceiver is configured to wirelessly receive input power from a second transceiver; and
a processing system configured to monitor a performance factor of the first transceiver, process the performance factor to determine when a power transfer problem exists between the second transceiver and the first transceiver, and transfer an alert in response to the power transfer problem.

Abstract
What is disclosed is a user interface system for controlling a process, where the process is implemented in a machine system. The user interface system includes a user interface configured to receive user input to control the process of the machine system. The user interface system also includes a first transceiver coupled to the user interface and configured to provide user power to the user interface, where the first transceiver is configured to wirelessly receive input power from a second transceiver. The user interface system also includes a processing system configured to monitor a performance factor of the first transceiver, process the performance factor to determine when a power transfer problem exists between the second transceiver and the first transceiver, and transfer an alert in response to the power transfer problem.
