Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A process control device that includes a process control valve, an actuator, a digital valve controller ("DVC"), and a processor. The actuator is coupled to the process control valve and is configured to control a position of the process control valve. The DVC is communicatively coupled to the process control valve and the actuator. The DVC is configured to obtain first data and second data, the first data associated with a fluid flow through the actuator or the DVC at a first point in time, and the second data associated with the fluid flow through the actuator or the DVC at a second point in time different from the first point in time. The processor is configured to aggregate the first data and the second data, and perform diagnostic and/or prognostic techniques based on the aggregated data.
