Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a relay station supervisory system where one supervisory device can supervise and control relay stations with different functions and operations by allowing each relay station to use different recognition data. SOLUTION: The recognition data are provided in advance to each relay station to authenticate the relay stations 11a, 11b and 11c whose operations differ from each other. An A relay station 11a, a B relay station 11b and a C relay station 11c transfer each message of A control supervisory data 15a, B control supervisory data 15b and C control supervisory data 15c to a data transfer section 13 in the supervisory device 12. The data transfer section 13 collates the recognition data to share the A control supervisory data 15a, B control supervisory data 15b and C control supervisory data 15c to an A supervisory control section 14a, a B supervisory control section 14b and a C supervisory control section 14c respectively. Thus, the supervisory device 12 can supervise the operating state of each relay station whose operations differ from each other. Similarly the control supervisory data 15a, 15b and 15c from the supervisory control sections 14a, 14b and 14c are respectively shared to the relay stations 11a, 11b and 11c.
