Description

洗衣房系统 技术领域
本发明涉及例如具有能与多个洗衣房设备可通信地连接的数据控制器的洗衣房系统。
背景技术
作为洗衣房系统，存在一种系统，具有：多个洗衣房设备(洗衣机、烘干机)，设置于洗衣房店铺；数据控制器，设置于每个洗衣房店铺且与设置于洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备可通信地连接；以及管理用服务器，设为能经由通信网与洗衣房店铺的数据控制器进行通信(例如参照专利文献1)。
在专利文献1的洗衣房系统中，数据控制器掌握洗衣房店铺内的洗衣房设备的运转状态，基于从管理用服务器经由通信网发送至数据控制器的信号，数据控制器向管理用服务器发送表示洗衣房设备的运转状态的信息。
在洗衣房店铺中，为了使数据控制器掌握洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备的运转状态，可以考虑由数据控制器通过轮询处理从多个洗衣房设备获取运转信息。
此时，在数据控制器从多个洗衣房设备逐次获取运转信息的中途，有时，例如特定的洗衣房设备中会产生基于事件请求的事件通信处理。基于事件请求的事件通信处理是指与逐次通信处理不同的处理(非常规处理)，例如来自管理用服务器的对特定的洗衣房设备的运转开始处理等。
在该情况下，数据控制器中断逐次通信处理，进行对特定的洗衣房设备的事件通信处理(运转开始处理)。其后，数据控制器从因事件请求而被中断了逐次通信处理时的洗衣房设备起再次开始逐次通信处理。
对如图9的(a)所示具有设置于洗衣房店铺内的十二台洗衣房设备(设备T1、设备T2……设备T10、设备T11、设备T12)、与十二台洗衣房设备可通 信地连接的数据控制器103以及设为能经由通信网105与洗衣房店铺的数据控制器103进行通信的管理用服务器106的现有的洗衣房系统101进行说明。
基于图8，对洗衣房系统101中数据控制器103所进行的逐次通信处理的流程进行说明。
＜步骤S1＞
在步骤S1中，数据控制器103将进行逐次通信处理的设备的编号n设定为1。需要说明的是，设定后的n的值存储于数据控制器103。
＜步骤S2＞
在步骤S2中，数据控制器103判定是否有来自管理用服务器106的事件请求。在数据控制器103判定为没有来自管理用服务器106的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S3。
＜步骤S3＞
在步骤S3中，数据控制器103对编号n的设备进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S4。
＜步骤S4＞
在步骤S4中，数据控制器103判定编号n是否为洗衣房设备的总数N以上。在数据控制器103判定编号n为洗衣房设备的总数N以上的情况下，前进至步骤S1。在数据控制器103判定编号n不为洗衣房设备的总数N以上的情况下，前进至步骤S5。
＜步骤S5＞
在步骤S5中，数据控制器103使编号n加1。其后，前进至步骤S2。
＜步骤S6＞
在步骤S2中数据控制器103判定为有来自管理用服务器106的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S6，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备(设备P)进行基于事件请求的事件通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S2。
基于图9的(b)，对在现有的洗衣房系统101中数据控制器103所进行的 逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子进行说明。在图9的(b)中，图示了从上向下依次对哪一台洗衣房设备进行哪一种处理。
在洗衣房系统中，数据控制器103通过轮询处理来进行逐次获取十二台洗衣房设备的运转信息的逐次通信处理a。具体而言，数据控制器103依次进行获取设备T1、设备T2……设备T12的运转信息的逐次通信处理a，其后，回到设备1，再次重复逐次通信处理a。
例如，如图9的(b)所示，在数据控制器103结束了对设备T1、设备T2的逐次通信处理a后(且在开始对设备T3的逐次通信处理a前)，在有从管理用服务器106对设备T8的运转开始处理A的事件请求的情况下，数据控制器103中断逐次通信处理a，进行对设备T8的运转开始处理A(事件通信处理A)。
当对设备T8的运转开始处理A结束时，数据控制器103从因事件请求而中断了逐次通信处理a时的设备T3起再次开始逐次通信处理a。因此，由于数据控制器103依次进行对设备T3……设备T8的逐次通信处理a，因此在再次开始逐次通信处理a后，使有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理a排在第六台进行。
数据控制器103直到对有事件请求的设备T8进行逐次通信处理a为止，无法掌握设备T8的运转状态。因此，数据控制器103难以在对设备T8进行了运转开始处理A后迅速掌握设备T8是否适当地开始了运转。
这样的问题不限于在数据控制器从多个洗衣房设备逐次获取运转信息的中途有运转开始处理的事件请求的情况下产生，也可能在数据控制器从多个洗衣房设备逐次获取信息的中途特定的洗衣房设备中产生了事件通信处理的情况下产生。

附图标记说明
1：洗衣房系统；2：洗衣房设备；3：数据控制器；5：通信网；6：管理用服务器。
具体实施方式
以下，参照附图，对作为本发明的实施方式的洗衣房系统1进行说明。图1是表示本发明的实施方式的洗衣房系统1的整体构成的框图。
(第一实施方式)
如图1所示，本实施方式的洗衣房系统1具有：多个洗衣房设备2(在以下的说明中，有时仅称为设备2)，设置于洗衣房店铺；数据控制器3，设置于各洗衣房店铺，与设置于洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备2可通信地连接；以及管理用服务器6，设为能经由通信网5与洗衣房店铺的数据控制器3进行通信。
需要说明的是，在图1中，仅图示了一个洗衣房店铺，但设为能与管理用服务器6通信的洗衣房店铺也可以存在多个店铺。洗衣房设备2例如是洗衣机、烘干机，洗干一体机等。通信网5例如是无线通信网。
在洗衣房系统1中，数据控制器3例如由微型计算机等构成，具备：CPU(central processing unit：中央处理器)；ROM(Read-Only Memory：只读存储器)，储存有控制洗衣房系统1的动作的程序；以及RAM(Random Access Memory：随机存取存储器)，暂时性地存储在执行上述程序时使用的数据等。 数据控制器3与洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备2及管理用服务器6分别可通信地连接。
数据控制器3掌握洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备2的运转状态，将表示其运转状态的信息(运转信息)发送给管理用服务器6。因此，管理用服务器6能监视洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备2的运转状态。
因此，数据控制器3通过轮询处理来进行从多个洗衣房设备2逐次获取运转信息的逐次通信处理，以掌握洗衣房店铺内的多个洗衣房设备2的运转状态。
基于图2，对洗衣房系统1中数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程进行说明。图2是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的流程图。
＜步骤S1＞
在步骤S1中，数据控制器3将进行逐次通信处理的设备的编号n设定为1。需要说明的是，设定后的n的值存储于数据控制器3。
＜步骤S2＞
在步骤S2中，数据控制器3判定是否有来自管理用服务器6的事件请求。在数据控制器3判定为没有来自管理用服务器6的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S3。
＜步骤S3＞
在步骤S3中，数据控制器3对编号n的洗衣房设备2(设备n)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S4。
＜步骤S4＞
在步骤S4中，数据控制器3判定编号n是否为洗衣房设备2的总数N以上。在数据控制器3判定编号n为洗衣房设备2的总数N以上的情况下，前进至步骤S1。在数据控制器3判定编号n不为洗衣房设备2的总数N以上的情况下，前进至步骤S5。
＜步骤S5＞
在步骤S5中，数据控制器3使编号n加1。其后，前进至步骤S2。
＜步骤S6＞
在步骤S2中数据控制器3判定为有来自管理用服务器6的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S6，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行基于事件请求的事件通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S7。
＜步骤S7＞
在步骤S7中，数据控制器3将进行逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2的编号n设定为比有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的编号P靠前规定数的编号(P－规定数)。其后，前进至步骤S2。
基于图3，对本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子进行说明。图3的(a)是表示洗衣房系统1的具体例子的图，图3的(b)是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子的图。在图3的(b)中，图示了从上向下依次对哪一台洗衣房设备2进行了哪一种处理。
对如图3的(a)所示在洗衣房店铺内设置有十二台洗衣房设备2且数据控制器3通过轮询处理来进行逐次获取十二台洗衣房设备2的运转信息的逐次通信处理的情况进行说明。
对十二台洗衣房设备2分别标注编号1～12，编号1～12表示十二台洗衣房设备2的规定顺序。在本实施方式中，将编号1～12的洗衣房设备2分别设为设备T1、设备T2……设备T10、设备T11、设备T12。
数据控制器3按照规定顺序依次进行获取设备T1、设备T2……设备T12的运转状态信息的逐次通信处理，其后，再次回到设备1，重复逐次通信处理。
例如，如图3的(b)所示，在结束了对设备T1、设备T2的逐次通信处理a后(且在开始对设备T3的逐次通信处理a前)，在有从管理用服务器6对设备T8的运转开始处理A的事件请求的情况下，数据控制器3中断逐次通信处理a，进行对设备T8的运转开始处理A(事件通信处理A)。
在本实施方式中，在数据控制器3进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后，从与比有事件请求的设备T8靠前规定数的编号对应的设备再次开始逐次通信处理a。
需要说明的是，在将处于规定顺序下的在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2与特定的洗衣房设备2之间的洗衣房设备2的数量设为特定数C的情况下，规定数被设定为比特定数C小的整数。特定数C表示：从在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2起至特定的洗衣房设备2为止，按照规定顺序来走的话这两台洗衣房设备2之间有几台洗衣房设备2。
在图3的(b)的具体例子中，在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2是设备T2，有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2是设备T8。因此，位于规定顺序下的设备T2与设备T8之间的洗衣房设备2是设备T3～设备T7这五台，因此特定数C是5，规定数例如设定为比特定数C小的整数2。
因此，在逐次通信处理a因对设备T8的事件请求而被中断的情况下，当对设备T8的运转开始处理A结束时，数据控制器3按设备T6、设备T7、设备T8的顺序进行逐次通信处理a。因此，数据控制器3在再次开始逐次通信处理a后，使对有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理a排在第三台进行。
在本实施方式中，在进行运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)后直至对设备T8(特定的洗衣房设备2)进行逐次通信处理a为止的洗衣房设备2的数量是设备T6、设备T7、设备T8这三台，为特定数C即5以下。即，在进行事件通信处理后直至对特定的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理为止的洗衣房设备2的数量表示：在进行了事件通信处理后，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理排在第几台进行。
因此，相较于像以往那样在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后从因事件请求而中断了逐次通信处理a时的设备3起再次开始逐次通信处理a的情况，能迅速掌握有事件请求的设备T8的运转状态。
需要说明的是，在对设备T8进行了基于事件请求的运转开始处理A的情况下，通过该运转开始处理A，设备T8开始运转，但设备T8是在变为待命状态并进行了给水后才开始洗涤运转。因此，当进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A时，其后，设备T8的动作逐渐变化，因此从进行了运转开始处理A时起至开始洗涤运转为止的期间，存在时滞。
因此，例如有时候，即使数据控制器3在对设备T8进行了运转开始处理A后立即对设备T8进行逐次通信处理a，也无法适当地获取设备T8的运转状态。
在本实施方式中，从与比进行了运转开始处理A的设备T8靠前规定数的编号对应的设备T6再次开始逐次通信处理a，因此在进行对设备T6的逐次通信处理a后直至对设备T8进行逐次通信处理a为止的期间，设备T8的动作的变化结束，能适当地获取设备T8的运转状态。
此外，可以考虑从对设备T8进行了基于事件请求的运转开始处理A后至设备T8的动作的变化结束为止的期间，多次进行对设备T8的逐次通信处理a(第二实施方式)，但在本实施方式中，通过直至设备T8的动作的变化结束为止从设备T6起再次开始逐次通信处理a，能获取设备T8以外的设备T6等的运转状态。
本实施方式的洗衣房系统1具备：多个洗衣房设备2；数据控制器3，与多个洗衣房设备2可通信地连接；以及管理用服务器6，设为能经由通信网5与数据控制器3进行通信，在通过对多个洗衣房设备2按照规定顺序发送请求指令来对多个洗衣房设备2依次进行与请求指令对应的逐次通信处理时，在有从管理用服务器6对多个洗衣房设备2中包括的特定的洗衣房设备2的事件请求的情况下，在中断逐次通信处理并进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的基于事件请求的事件通信处理后，在进行事件通信处理后直至对特定的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理为止的洗衣房设备2的数量为特定数C以下，该特定数C表示处于规定顺序下的在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2与特定的洗衣房设备2之间的洗衣房设备2的数量。
由此，在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，在中断对多个洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理并进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后，能迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。因此，数据控制器3能迅速掌握进行了事件通信处理的特定的洗衣房设备2的运转状态。
在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，数据控制器3在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后，从规定顺序下的比特定的洗衣房设备2靠前了小于特定数C的规定数的洗衣房设备2起再次开始逐次的处理。
在本实施方式本发明的洗衣房系统1中，在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后，从规定顺序下的比特定的洗衣房设备2靠前了规定数的洗衣房设备2起再次开始逐次通信处理，由此与以不变更规定顺序的方式再次开始逐次通信处理的情况相比，能迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。
(第二实施方式)
本实施方式的洗衣房系统1与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1不同的点在于数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程。需要说明的是，对本实施方式的洗衣房系统1与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1相同的构成省略其详细说明。
基于图4，对本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程进行说明。图4是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的流程图。
图4的步骤S1～步骤S6的处理与图2的步骤S1～步骤S6的处理相同，因此省略其说明。
＜步骤S6＞
在步骤S2中数据控制器3判定为有来自管理用服务器6的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S6，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行基于事件请求的事件通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S107。
＜步骤S107＞
在步骤S107中，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S108。
＜步骤S108＞
在步骤S108中，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S109。
＜步骤S109＞
在步骤S109中，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S110。
＜步骤S110＞
在步骤S110中，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S111。
＜步骤S111＞
在步骤S11中，数据控制器3对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行逐次通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S102。
基于图5的(a)和图5的(b)，对本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子进行说明。图5的(a)是表示洗衣房系统1的具体例子的图，图5的(b)是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子的图。在图5的(b)中，图示了从上向下依次对哪一台洗衣房设备2进行哪一种处理。
对如图5的(a)所示在洗衣房店铺内设置有十二台洗衣房设备2(设备T1、设备T2……设备T10、设备T11、设备T12)且数据控制器3通过轮询处理来进行逐次获取十二台洗衣房设备2的运转信息的逐次通信处理的情况进行说明。
例如，如图5的(b)所示，在结束了对设备T1、设备T2的逐次通信处理a后(且在开始对设备T3的逐次通信处理a前)，在有从管理用服务器6对设备T8的运转开始处理A的事件请求的情况下，数据控制器3中断逐次通信处理并进行对设备T8的运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)。
在本实施方式中，数据控制器3在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后，在进行了规定次数的对有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理a后，从中断了逐次通信处理时的设备T3起再次开始逐次通信处理。需要说明的是，规定次数设定为5次。
因此，在逐次通信处理a因对设备T8的事件请求而被中断的情况下，当对设备T8的运转开始处理A结束时，数据控制器3按设备T8、设备T8、设备T8、设备T8、设备T8、设备T3的顺序进行逐次通信处理a。因此，在再次开始逐次通信处理a后，数据控制器3使对有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理a排在第一台进行。
在本实施方式中，在进行运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)后直至对设备 T8(特定的洗衣房设备2)进行逐次通信处理a为止的洗衣房设备2的数量为设备T8这一台，为特定数C即5以下。即，从进行事件通信处理后至对特定的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理为止的期间的洗衣房设备2的数量表示：在进行了事件通信处理后，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理排在第几台进行。
因此，相较于像以往那样在进行了对设备T10的运转开始处理A后从因事件请求而中断了逐次通信处理a时的设备3起再次开始逐次通信处理a的情况，能迅速掌握有事件请求的设备T8的运转状态。
需要说明的是，如上所述，在设备T8中，从进行运转开始处理A时起至开始洗涤运转为止的期间存在时滞，但在本实施方式中，在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后进行五次对设备T8的逐次通信处理a，因此在进行五次对设备T8的逐次通信处理a的期间，设备T8的动作的变化结束，能适当地获取设备T8的运转状态。
此外，在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A的情况下，设备T8的动作会变化，因此有时无法在数据控制器3与设备T8之间适当地进行通信，但在本实施方式中，在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后进行五次对设备T8的逐次通信处理a，因此通过适当地进行五次中的至少一次逐次通信处理a，能适当地获取设备T8的运转状态。
如上，在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1同样地迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理，由此能迅速掌握特定的洗衣房设备2的运转状态。
在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，数据控制器3在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后多次进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。
由此，在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，通过在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理，与以不变更规定顺序的方式再次开始逐次通信处理的情况相比，能迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。
(第三实施方式)
本实施方式的洗衣房系统1与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1不同的点在于数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程。需要说明的是，对本实施方式的洗衣房系统1与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1相同的构成省略其详细说明。
基于图6，对数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程进行说明。图6是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的流程图。
图6的步骤S1～步骤S6的处理与图2的步骤S1～步骤S6的处理相同，因此省略其说明。
＜步骤S6＞
在步骤S2中数据控制器3判定为有来自管理用服务器6的事件请求的情况下，前进至步骤S6，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2(设备P)进行基于事件请求的事件通信处理。其后，前进至步骤S207。
＜步骤S207＞
在步骤S207中，数据控制器3对规定顺序下的比有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的编号P靠后一位的编号(P+1)的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理a。其后，前进至步骤S208。
＜步骤S208＞
在步骤S208中，数据控制器3对规定顺序下的比有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的编号P靠后两位的编号(P+2)的设备进行逐次通信处理a。其后，前进至步骤S209。
＜步骤S209＞
在步骤S209中，数据控制器3将进行逐次通信处理的设备的编号n设定为被发送了事件请求的设备的编号P。其后，前进至步骤S202。
基于图7的(a)和图7的(b)，对数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子进行说明。图7的(a)是表示洗衣房系统1的具体例子的图，图7的(b)是表示数据控制器3所进行的逐次通信处理的流程的具体例子的图。在图7的(b)中，图示了从上向下依次对哪一台洗衣房设备2进行哪一种处理。
对如图7的(a)所示在洗衣房店铺内设置有十二台洗衣房设备2(设备 T1、设备T2……设备T10、设备T11、设备T12)且数据控制器3通过轮询处理来进行逐次获取十二台洗衣房设备2的运转信息的逐次通信处理的情况进行说明。
例如，如图7的(b)所示，在结束了对设备T1、设备T2的逐次通信处理a后(且在开始对设备T3的逐次通信处理a前)，在有从管理用服务器6对设备T8的运转开始处理A的事件请求的情况下，数据控制器3中断逐次通信处理，进行对设备T8的运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)。
在本实施方式中，数据控制器3在进行了设备T8的运转开始处理A后，在进行了对规定顺序下的比有事件请求的设备T8编号靠后一位的设备T9、比设备T8的编号靠后两位的设备T10的逐次通信处理a后，从设备T8起再次开始逐次通信处理a。
因此，在逐次通信处理a因对设备T8的事件请求而被中断的情况下，当对设备T8的运转开始处理A结束时，数据控制器3按设备T9、设备T10、设备T8的顺序进行逐次通信处理a。因此，在再次开始逐次通信处理a后，数据控制器3使对有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理a排在第三台进行。
在本实施方式中，在进行运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)后直至对设备T8(特定的洗衣房设备2)进行逐次通信处理a为止的洗衣房设备2的数量为设备T9、设备T10、设备T8这三台，为特定数C即5以下。即，在进行事件通信处理后直至对特定的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理为止的洗衣房设备2的数量表示：在进行了事件通信处理后，对有事件请求的特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理排在第几台进行。
在本实施方式中，针对特定数C为5的情况，在进行运转开始处理A(事件通信处理)后直至对设备T8(特定的洗衣房设备2)进行逐次通信处理a为止被进行逐次通信处理a的洗衣房设备2的数量为两台，规定数倍设定为作为特定数C的5以下。
因此，相较于像以往那样在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后从因事件请求而中断了逐次通信处理a时的设备3起再次开始逐次通信处理a的情况，能迅速掌握有事件请求的设备T8的运转状态。
需要说明的是，如上所述，在设备T8中，从进行运转开始处理A时起至洗涤运转开始为止的期间存在时滞，但在本实施方式中，在进行了对设备T8的运转开始处理A后进行对规定顺序下的比有事件请求的设备T8编号靠后一位的设备T9、比设备T8编号靠后两位的设备T10的逐次通信处理a的期间，设备T8的动作的变化结束，能适当地获取设备T8的运转状态。
此外，虽然可以考虑在对设备T8进行基于事件请求的运转开始处理A后直至设备T8的动作的变化结束为止，多次进行对设备T8的逐次通信处理a(第二实施方式)，但在本实施方式中，能在直至设备T8的动作的变化结束为止获取设备T9、设备T10的运转状态。
如上，在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，与第一实施方式的洗衣房系统1同样地迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理，由此能迅速掌握特定的洗衣房设备2的运转状态。
在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，数据控制器3在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后，在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2以外的规定数(比特定数C小的整数)的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理后，进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。
由此，在本实施方式的洗衣房系统1中，通过在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后，在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2以外的规定数的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理后，进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理，与以不变更规定顺序的方式再次开始逐次通信处理的情况相比，能迅速进行对特定的洗衣房设备2的逐次通信处理。
以上，对本发明的实施方式进行了说明，但各部的具体的构成不限定于上述的实施方式。
例如在上述第一实施方式中，在对设备T8进行了基于事件请求的事件通信处理后，从与比有事件请求的设备T8靠前规定数的编号对应的设备起再次开始逐次通信处理，但规定数可以任意地设定。需要说明的是，规定数只要是比特定数C小的数即可，该特定数C是处于规定顺序下的在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2与特定的洗衣房设备2之间的洗衣房 设备2的数量。
在上述第二实施方式中，在对设备T8进行了基于事件请求的事件通信处理后连续五次进行对有事件请求的设备T8的逐次通信处理，但也可以任意地设定在对设备T8进行了事件通信处理后对有事件请求的设备T8进行逐次通信处理的连续次数。
在上述第三实施方式中，在进行了对设备T8的事件通信处理后，在进行了对设备T8以外的规定数的设备的逐次通信处理后，进行对设备T8的逐次通信处理，但可以任意地设定规定数。需要说明的是，规定数量只要是比特定数C小的数即可，该特定数C是处于规定顺序下的在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2与特定的洗衣房设备2之间的洗衣房设备2的数量。此外，设备T8以外的规定数的设备只要是设备T8以外的设备即可。
在上述第一～第三实施方式中，以在对设备T8进行了基于事件请求的事件通信处理后变更规定顺序并再次开始逐次的处理的情况为例进行了说明，但被进行基于事件请求的事件通信处理的设备不限于设备T8。
在上述第一～第三实施方式中，如果在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后直至对特定的洗衣房设备2进行逐次通信处理为止，进行逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2的数量为处于规定顺序下的在逐次通信处理即将中断之前进行了逐次通信处理的洗衣房设备2与特定的洗衣房设备2之间的洗衣房设备2的特定数以下，则在进行了对特定的洗衣房设备2的事件通信处理后进行逐次通信处理的设备的顺序是任意的。
