Abstract
A low-powered sensor, a method for a low-powered sensor, and an apparatus are provided for monitoring a condition of a machine. Responsive to receiving a trigger signal during a setup phase, the low-powered sensor collects sensor data for a predetermined extended period of time. The low-powered sensor receives a setting of a delay based on a determined amount of time of the predetermined extended period of time, since the receiving of the trigger signal, for the machine to reach a steady operating condition within predetermined limits. Upon receiving the trigger signal after the receiving of the setting of the delay, the low-powered sensor waits a period of time of the set delay before collecting the sensor data for a predetermined amount of time that is shorter than the predetermined extended period of time, and provides the collected sensor data to a computing device for analysis.
