COMMUNICATION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION PRESENTED ON AN APPLIANCE DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of communicating information associated with an appliance, comprising:
- capturing, at a computing device, information indicative of an optical machine-readable representation of information, the optical machine-readable representation presented on a display of the appliance; and
accessing, with the computing device, data associated with the appliance responsive to the optical machine-readable representation.

Abstract
A system and method of communicating information associated with an appliance is provided. An appliance can present an optical machine-readable representation, such as a linear or matrix barcode, on a display of the appliance. The optical machine-readable representation can encode information associated with an event occurrence for the appliance. A client, such as a computer, smartphone, tablet, etc., can capture information indicative of the optical machine-readable representation. The client computing device can then access information, such as diagnostic information, responsive to the optical machine-readable representation.
