1. A data transfer management system for use with an electromechanical machine having a housing that protects the machine from an environment, said data transfer management system comprising:
- an evaluation unit located outside said housing, said evaluation unit adapted to receive, send and manipulate data signals;
a first receiving module located within said housing;
a second receiving module located within said housing, said second receiving module being electrically connected to said first receiving module so that both power and said data signals transfer between said first and second receiving modules;
at least one sensor being adapted to sense a predetermined parameter of said machine and convert said parameter to an electrical data signal, said at least one sensor being electrically connected to said first receiving module so that said data signal transfers from said sensor to said first receiving module; and
means for transferring said data signal between said first receiving module and said evaluation unit, said transferring means transferring said data signal through said housing without affecting the protective integrity of said housing.

Abstract
A monitoring system for transmitting test and measurement data from sensors located within a machine to a common evaluation unit located remote of the machine. The monitoring system includes sensors for monitoring the operating conditions of a machine. The data generated from each sensor is first transmitted to a common receiving module located within the machine. The receiving module than transmits the collected data to the evaluating unit.
