Abstract
A method and system are provided for invoking and monitoring of tests executed by multiple, diverse control systems/algorithms on a main controller which allows a single monitor system to be used to monitor the test results without requiring the monitor system to be programmed or individually tailored to process each unique output from the different possible tests. The present invention achieves independence between the monitor system and each of the specific test applications on the main controller by normalizing the unique results of each of the tests to a common value, thereby allowing the monitor system to generate expected results that can be used with any of the possible tests.
