Abstract
Abstract A communication port of a concentrated controller for performing concentrated control, and a communication port of each of a plurality of operation devices having respective peculiar ID codes are connected to each other by a signal transmitting cable or the like. An ID code of an operation device intended to be accessed from the concentrated controller is transmitted, whereby each of the operation devices judges whether or not the transmitted ID code is in agreement with one's own ID code. Access is made only to the operation device when the ID code is in agreement with one's own ID code. The operation of such device is capable of being controlled by transmitted information; and such operation is preferably related to a medical environment.
