Remote actuating occurs when the Network
Capable Application Processor(NCAP) is connected to a STIM
consisting only of actuators, in other words, an
actuator STIM. It provides a mechanism allowing the remote manipulation of the actuators throughout the network in which the NCAP is connected. NCAPs connected only to a actuator STIM can, based on the broadcast data
received from other NCAPs, activate an alarm when the vibration level of
the bearings in a turbine in a ship exceed a critical set point, or send
a warning when the temperature of a water bath in a chemical processing
plant reaches a critical temperature (etc).
