For support of stable exploitation of various equipment types very often it is used computer applications, including special Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS). The diagnostic operations for equipment are the most important part of these CMMS. Often, the important aim of CMMS application is differentiating of various types of equipment failures. It is especially difficult to make it at remote diagnostics of equipment, located at long distances. Results of diagnostics can be used for decision-making about management of equipment operating modes (regimes), estimates of need of repair operations carrying out and so forth. Networked Control Systems (NCSs) are implied in all spheres of human activity. In the field of industrial production the development of those new technologies have been led to emergence of several categories of industrial local area networks (field networks, cell networks, control and monitoring networks) and several communication standards (Modbus, Profibus, FIP, Profinet and so fort). To improve quality of diagnostic results, it is necessary to know the parameters dynamics for various components of the system. It will allow, in particular, differentiating faults of control and communication systems, used for remote diagnostics and management of equipment. The main aim of this work - automating process of failure analysis for remote actuator of wind turbine, located on remote site. This aim is reached due to application of NCS, using connectionist methods. Authors utilized neural networks, which had the homeostasis property.
