    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining a scheduled maintenance session for a proportional actuator includes transmitting a command signal to a controller of the proportional actuator and generating, using the controller, a drive signal for controlling the proportional actuator using the command signal. The position of a component actuator of the proportional actuator is changed, on the basis of the drive signal, and the position of the component actuator is measured, using a sensor, and a position feedback signal is generated on the basis of the measurement. A condition indicator is estimated, with a processor, using only one of the command signal, the drive signal, or the position feedback signal. A health indicator is estimated, with the processor, using the condition indicator, and a scheduled maintenance session of the proportional actuator is determined, with the processor, using the health indicator.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented system for detecting shifts in data is provided. The system is configured to: calculate, based on the value of a plurality of user-selectable baseline configuration parameters, baseline values for a series of data items in a data structure, wherein the baseline values include an average value and a standard deviation value; calculate, based on the value of a plurality of user-selectable weighted threshold parameters, a weighted threshold level for the series of data items; detect, based on the value of a plurality of user-selectable shift detection parameters, a shift in the series of data items, wherein the shift comprises an abrupt shift, a rapid drift, or a gradual drift; convert, based on the value of a plurality of user-selectable normalization parameters, the value of each data item in the series of data items to a normalized value; and determine whether the normalized values indicate a data shift.
