Abstract

A method for installing a machine monitoring device which includes at least one gateway, at least one machine operation data sensor unit, a transmission unit having a transmission antenna for radio-based transfer of the machine operation data from the sensor unit to the gateway, and at least one user terminal for communication with the gateway. The antenna position is variable relative to the sensor and/or transmission units. The method steps include installing the gateway; establishing a communication link between the transmission unit and the gateway, positioning the transmission unit and antenna at or near the machine, transferring data packets to determine at least one communication parameter influencing the communication transfer quality, generating a position change instruction for the transmission unit or antenna and/or an action recommendation on the basis of the communication parameter, and displaying the instruction and/or recommendation at a user terminal.
