Methods are disclosed for collecting sensor data in a pressure regulator
system including a controller and a plurality of sensors. The controller and each
of the individual sensors are activated as required to collect sensor data during
a sampling period thereby reducing the amount of power consumed by the pressure
regulator system. Further power conservation measures are implemented by using
a battery sensor to monitor the capacity of the pressure regulator battery and
placing the pressure regulator in reduced power consumption operating modes as
the capacity of the battery is reduced.
