There is provided a computer program product, a mobile device capable of wireless communications and method for a mobile device capable of wireless communications with a payload handling apparatus for handling payload in a payload handling area. A message from the payload handling apparatus is received and on the basis of the received message it is determined when the mobile device is within the payload handling area of the payload handling apparatus.

Wireless communications with a payload handling apparatus

The invention relates to a predictive maintenance of hoisting equipment (), particularly cranes. A maintenance center () automatically collects diagnostic data relating to least one component of the remote hoisting equipment and optionally sensor data relating the operational environment of the remote hoisting equipment (). The maintenance center () has an access to configuration data of the remote hoisting equipment and the reliability data on the at least one component of the remote hoisting equipment (). The maintenance center () is then able to generate a maintenance plan optimizing the cost of maintenance and reliability of the hoisting equipment over a life cycle of the hoisting equipment.

Predictive maintenance method and system

An apparatus is configured with a set of operating instructions and a sensor for monitoring an environment of the apparatus. The environment of the apparatus is monitored for compliance with the set of operating instructions.
