Abstract

A system for remote analysis, remote training and/or remote maintenance on a mobile machine comprises a first display unit (10), command input means and a communication device which can be connected as required to the first display unit (10) and to a data network (15). The first communication device can be activated by a command input for bidirectional communication with a second communication device of a data network subscriber, wherein the first and second communication devices are designed to transmit the data displayed by the first display unit (10) to a second display unit (19) connected to the second communication device, and wherein the subscriber can transmit an instruction data sequence to the first display unit (10) via the data network (15) and said sequence can be displayed by said first display unit, wherein the reception and the storing of the instruction data sequence are designed such that an instruction of the instruction data sequence can only be carried out by actuating the command input means.

Claims

1. System for remote analysis, remote training and/or remote maintenance on a mobile machine, comprising a programmable electronic controller, a user interface having a first display unit and command input means, and a communication device which can be connected to the first display unit as required and can be connected wirelessly and/or via a cable to a data network, wherein the first communication device can be activated by a command input for bidirectional communication with a second communication device of a data network subscriber, wherein the first and second communication devices are designed to transmit the data displayed by the first display unit to a second display unit connected to the second communication device, and wherein the subscriber can transmit an instruction data sequence to the first display unit via the data network and said sequence can be displayed by said first display unit, wherein the reception and the storing of the instruction data sequence are designed such that an instruction of the instruction data sequence can only be carried out by actuating the command input means.

2. System according to claim 1, wherein the subscriber is a computer, in particular a server, and/or an expert.

3. System according to claim 1, wherein the data network is the Internet or an intranet and the communication is carried out via a web browser.

4. System according to claim 1, wherein the communication is carried out by means of specific programs which are stored in the first and second communication devices.

5. System according to claim 1, wherein the communication devices are designed for the parallel transmission of acoustic information.

6. System according to claim 1, wherein the first display unit is a component of a mobile telecommunication device which is connected to the controller or the display unit of the machine via a wireless and/or cable connection for data transmission.

7. Method for remote analysis, remote training and/or remote maintenance on a mobile machine comprising a programmable electronic controller, a user interface having a first display unit and command input means, and a communication device which can be connected to the first display unit as required and can be connected wirelessly and/or via a cable to a data network, wherein the first communication device can be activated by a command input for bidirectional communication with a second communication device of a subscriber of the data network, and the data displayed by the first display unit are transmitted to a second display unit connected to the second communication device, wherein an instruction data sequence can be generated by the subscriber on the basis of the data displayed by the second display unit and transmitted to the first display unit via the data network and displayed by said first display unit, wherein the instruction data sequence is received and stored at the first display unit such that an instruction of the instruction data sequence can only be carried out by actuating the command input means.

8. Method according to claim 7, wherein, for the purpose of troubleshooting, acoustic information is exchanged between the operator and the service adviser by means of the connected communication devices or via other telecommunication channels.
