Abstract
To simplify a data transfer procedure and to reduce communication load by allowing a subordinate device to store a processing result of management elements in a self-device in a file and allowing a controller to acquire information by performing file transfer from the subordinate device. A processing part of a controller transmits an optional request message to a subordinate device through socket communication of a transmission control protocol. The device processes management elements which are managed by its own device from contents of the request message, makes a single file from the result in a file storing part and simultaneously transmits a response message showing processing end to the controller through a socket. The controller executes communication by a file transfer protocol(FTP). The controller which receives the file from the device 20 stores the file in a file storing part of its own device.
