1. An instrument management device comprising:
a first device comprising a circuitry; and a second device, wherein the circuitry is configured to:
receive a signal from the second device based on a comparison between measurement data and a reference value, wherein the measurement data is compared to the reference value to indicate an error condition;
generate one or more recommendations associated with the error condition by using a cause and effect table, the cause and effect table comprising a data structure having at least one row and at least one column, wherein the cause and effect table includes a weighting factor associated with each error that originates from the second device and a weighting factor associated with each possible error cause of each error, the first device accessing a data item from one of the rows or one of the columns of the cause and effect table;
send the one or more recommendations including the data item, to obtain a resolution of the error condition by altering a state of the second device, and generate a data package associated with the resolution of the error condition;
use the data package to determine whether to update the cause and effect table; and
alter the data item in one of the rows or one of the columns based on a feedback to update the cause and effect table.
