Abstract
A system () that can be used to retrofit any machine () for indicating when to perform maintenance service tasks for the machine (). It includes a service tracker () connected to the machine (), and also a maintenance manager () typically hosted by a hand-held device and coupled to the service tracker () by a wireless link (), so as to allow providing a service interval for each of typically several tasks. For each of the tasks, a timer (), preferably resettable via the maintenance manager (), is provided as part of the service tracker (), allowing direct comparison of a service interval for a task with the reading of the corresponding resettable timer (). Based on the direct comparison of service interval and resettable timer reading for a task, the service tracker () provides a service warning via a display () when it is time to perform the task again.
