  • Publication number: 20230296575
    Abstract: A gas chromatograph as a first gas chromatograph includes a controller that processes data and a communication interface that outputs the data to a management apparatus. The communication interface functions as a wireless communication access point of a network identified by a predetermined identifier and outputs the data and/or information about the first gas chromatograph via the network to the management apparatus connected to the wireless communication access point, and connects a second gas chromatograph to the wireless communication access point in bridge mode as a child device to cause the second gas chromatograph to output data processed by the second gas chromatograph and/or information about the second gas chromatograph to the management apparatus via the wireless communication access point and the network.
