SmartTrigger™: Transform Sensor Data Into Immediate Frontline Action

Stop failures before they happen. SmartTrigger™ bridges your OSI PI, Augury, or Prometheus APM insights to real-time work execution — turning every alert into instant, intelligent action on the plant floor.

What's Missing in Your Connected Ecosystem?

You've invested in your Physical, Control, and Data layers — but insights alone don't create action.
SmartTrigger™ adds the missing Action Layer — transforming sensor data into real-time, rule-driven frontline responses when it matters most.

Physical Layer

Machines, Sensors, Equipment

Control Layer

PLCs, SCADA Systems

Data Layer

PI Historian, Prometheus APM, Augury

EXECUTION

Frontline Action Layer

Inspection Scheduler, Actions, Issues, Maintenance Notifications, Work Orders

SmartTrigger™ connects data from your historian systems to real-time frontline execution — automatically triggering inspections, work notifications, and shift updates as soon as anomalies occur.

How SmartTrigger™ Works

1

Detects

Monitors PI Tags, sensor signals, and event frames in real time

2

Decides

Applies user-defined rules (e.g., "If vibration > 0.5 mm/s → trigger inspection")

3

Acts

Automatically generates mobile tasks in mRounds or maintenance notifications in iMaintenance

4

Closes the Loop

Sends operator feedback back to your historian and ERP for complete traceability

Example: When a Pump's Vibration Spikes

Imagine a critical cooling-water pump in your plant.

1

Detects

SmartTrigger™ continuously monitors PI Tags for that pump. When vibration levels rise above 0.5 mm/s, it detects the anomaly in real time.

2

Decides

Based on predefined rules ("If vibration > 0.5 mm/s → trigger inspection"), SmartTrigger™ automatically decides that an inspection task must be initiated.

3

Acts

Within seconds, a work task appears in mRounds for the operator on shift, or a maintenance notification is generated in iMaintenance, complete with context like pump ID, timestamp, and vibration data.

4

Closes the Loop

After the operator performs the inspection and updates the findings, SmartTrigger™ sends the feedback — including inspection notes and actions taken — back to PI Historian and SAP, completing the digital traceability loop.

Result

What once took hours of manual detection, ticket creation, and communication now happens automatically in seconds — reducing unplanned downtime and ensuring faster, smarter frontline response.
