SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING MACHINE ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTIVITY
First Claim
1. A server in electronic communication with at least one data acquisition unit via a wireless receiver, the server comprising:
- a sending module operable to send a search command to the wireless receiver to search a data acquisition unit near a machine, and send a data collection command to the wireless receiver to obtain energy consumption and productivity of the machine collected by the data acquisition unit;
a receiving module operable to receive the energy consumption and the productivity of the machine, and convert data format of the energy consumption and the productivity of the machine;
a data transmission module operable to transmit the converted energy consumption and productivity of the machine to a database;
an analysis module operable to analyze the converted energy consumption and productivity of the machine to generate an analysis chart; and
a displaying module operable to display the analysis chart on a display screen of the server.

Abstract
A server in electronic communication with at least one data acquisition unit via a wireless receiver. The server measures energy consumption and productivity of a machine. The machine is installed with a current analyzer and a detection unit, and wirelessly connects to the at least one data acquisition unit. The current analyzer measures the energy consumption of the machine. The detection unit calculates the productivity of the machine. After a search command is sent to the wireless receiver, a usable data acquisition unit collects the energy consumption and the productivity of the machine. The server analyzes the energy consumption and productivity of the machine and generates an analysis chart. The analysis chart is displayed on a display screen.
