By keeping the Bluetooth connection and the application active, the monitoring continues also in background, notifying the operator of any malfunctions or anomalies. Through visual and audible alarms, it limits the inadequate use of the machine and notifies the user of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance. NMI Connect presents a simple and intuitive interface, allowing the control of multiple machines, all equipped with NMI, simultaneously by adapting the display. In the main screen, there is the maintenance icon in addition to the active data network icons and the traceability of critical events (functionality implemented with NMI Connection System 4.0). The diagnostic functions include the static vibration test through which it is possible to check the health status of the machine. The check can be activated at any time using the appropriate button in the side window and guides the user in carrying out the test. In case of abnormal solicitation, a message is returned, recommending an extraordinary maintenance of the machine. The benefits of using Nobili NMI Connection System, NMI Connect App and Web service: - Optimization of production efficiency - Predictive maintenance - Reduction of business costs - Working comfort For more information about NMI have a look at Nobili Electronics articles in the News section of the site www.nobili.com Note: a continuous use, even in background, may result in a reduction of the battery life of the device, in which the app is installed.
