ABSTRACT:
In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a method for monitoring a computing device, that includes receiving, by a data collector, a plurality of system messages from a system controller, wherein the data collector is wired to a serial port component of the system controller, wherein the system controller is factory preconfigured to automatically send the plurality of system messages via the serial port when the data collector is connected to the serial port, wherein the computing device comprises the system controller, and wherein the data collector is independent of the computing device. The method further includes storing data from the plurality of system messages on the data collector, receiving, by the data collector, a data transmit request, and wirelessly transmitting, by the data collector, the data to a field receiver.
