Monitoring for maintenance, quality assurance and optimization

The essential function of a monitoring system is the observation and fast identification & elimination of system and/or component problems and malfunctions.

However, quality assurance and the associated improvement/optimization of functioning processes, is also a major focus of monitoring. Automatic checks provide a quick overview of the status or errors on the systems. This allows both system processes and internal operating procedures to be better understood and optimized in a targeted manner. Early error identification and continuous optimization, ensure smooth live operation and low maintenance & servicing costs, for both transport companies and system operators.

Monitoring to optimize processes & operations

Monitoring allows you to optimize processes and operations. For this purpose, our monitoring tool offers various support functions that can automate some processes. An example: You define a point in time and the system sends automated e-mails to the previously defined group of recipients and generates orders. The recipients receive lists, reminding them to check various levels, deficiencies and alerts.  These emails can also give an overview of the devices that require a cash change or a paper change.

Access to the Monitoring Tool

The Monitoring Tool enables the monitoring and control of all sales devices and software applications in use. The web-based application and optimized display ensure easy access from any mobile device with Internet access. At the same time, simple operation is guaranteed.
