German to English Tech/Engineering Computers (general)
Sondenbetreiber mit eigenem Auswertungssystem werden bei auftretenden Problemen vom System informiert und können die umfangreichen Hilfsmittel des Systems bei den Analysen von Problem nutzen. Eine übersichtliche Darstellung des aktuellen Zustandes des eigenen Systems und ein aufschlussreiches Reportingsystem stellen die Basis für einen zuverlässigen Netzbetrieb dar.
Ist das eigene System Bestandteil eines zentralen Auswertungssystems, werden Probleme bei einem Teilnehmer rechtzeitig weitergegeben, so dass alle frühzeitig Gegenmaßnahmen ergreifen können.

It is definitely a person and not a machine as the next part talks about sending out a warning so that all participants can take countermeasures.

Peer comment(s):

neutral rjbemben : While "participant" may be better in this context, there are many contexts where "user" is appropriate for "Teilnehmer". Countless times I've used "participant" for "Teilnehmer" and the results sound "translated". Thanks for mentioning thi alternative!
