The compute engine 1110 may be embodied as any type of device or collection of devices capable of performing various compute functions described below. In some embodiments, the compute engine 1110 may be embodied as a single device such as an integrated circuit, an embedded system, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), a system-on-a-chip (SOC), or other integrated system or device. Additionally, in some embodiments, the compute engine 1110 includes or is embodied as a processor 1112 and a memory 1114. The processor 1112 may be embodied as any type of processor capable of performing the functions described herein. For example, the processor 1112 may be embodied as a microcontroller, a single or multi-core processor(s), or other processor or processing/controlling circuit. In some embodiments, the processor 1112 may be embodied as, include, or be coupled to an FPGA, an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), reconfigurable hardware or hardware circuitry, or other specialized hardware to facilitate performance of the functions described herein. In the illustrative embodiment, the processor 1112 includes a monitor logic unit 1116 which may be embodied as any device or circuitry (e.g., reconfigurable circuitry, a field programmable gate array (FPGA), an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), etc.) capable of offloading, from other functions of the processor 1112, functions related to determining the operational status of the edge modules (e.g., the edge modules 22, 24), determining, as a function of the operational status, whether maintenance should be performed on any of the edge modules (e.g., to replace one or more submodules, etc.), and, if so, providing report data to another device (e.g., in a building management system) indicating that maintenance should be performed on the edge module(s). Though shown as being integrated into the processor 1112, in some embodiments the monitor logic unit 1116 may be located in a different portion of the modular edge power system 1100 (e.g., as a discrete unit).
