For example, when the control unit 121 determines that the difference is equal to or larger than a predetermined value for at least one of the plurality of pieces of monitoring data, the control unit 121 may determine that there is an abnormality. Instead, when the control unit 121 determines that the difference is equal to or larger than a predetermined value for every one of the plurality of pieces of monitoring data, the control unit 121 may determine that there is an abnormality.
