Abstract
What is disclosed is a wireless push button device. The wireless push button device includes a user interface configured to receive user input to control a process of a machine system. The wireless push button device also includes a first transceiver coupled to the user interface and configured to wirelessly receive input power from a second transceiver, provide user power to the user interface, and wirelessly transfer communications related to the user input to the second transceiver. The wireless push button device also includes a processing system configured to determine when a power transfer problem exists between the second transceiver and the first transceiver, and transfer an alert in response to the power transfer problem.
