摘要： In a mechanical system, especially a mail handling system, an operator needs a system and method for gathering runtime information from sensors distributed throughout the machine. Specific information gathered is the number of recoverable faults for various mechanical subsystems, or modules. A recoverable fault is an occurrence of a motion state that could result in a malfunction or jam in the mechanical system but ultimately does not. These near-misses are important to note in order to improve serviceability of the mechanical system. Moreover, the present invention cross-links the data gathered by performance counters with respect to one module with information obtained in other modules. By taking the performance counter data and module information, an operator can foresee where potential malfunctions or jams are likely to occur.
