Abstract

Methods and systems of error archiving for multiple devices have been detailed. The method includes when an error occurs at a first device of the plurality of devices, compiling error information about the error into a first error file and transmitting the first error file to a second device of the plurality of devices. When an error occurs at the second device, compiling error information about the error into a second error file. The method further includes compiling the first and second error files into a master error file. In addition, a system is described, the system includes at least two imaging devices in communication with each other. One of the at least two imaging devices is a master device. The master device is adapted to collect and store information from the at least two imaging devices and to detect class errors based on the collected error information.
