Before the introduction of Self-Monitoring Sensors
Problems
The amount of data to be collected is large and this may lower the PLC processing capacity.
The burden of data analysis is large. Resetting the replaced sensors is troublesome.
Problems
It takes time to set sensors.
We want to avoid mistakes in setting sensors or wiring.
Remote controlling
and batch settings
Preventive

Self-Monitoring
Sensor
● We want to place sensors close to sensing points as much as possible.
However, it is often difcult to make settings, particularly when there are many
sensors to install.
● We want to send predetermined parameter values in a batch le for a repeater, etc.
● We want to conrm that required sensors are properly connected at the startup
of the system.
● We want to avoid production line stoppage that might occur due to unexpected
sensor failure.
Line stoppage hours × (manufacturing unit cost / hour) = Loss
●We want to minimize the production line down time to almost zero.
