Abstract: Provided is a control apparatus that can correctly obtain the execution status information of the instruction whose sender is the control apparatus itself. The controller (3) controls operations of the IO-Link device (2) via the IO-Link master (1), and includes the writing part (300) transmitting an instruction for the IO-Link device (2) and an identification of the instruction to the IO-Link master (1) and the reading part (301) retrieving an execution status information (status) indicating the execution status of the instruction by using the identification information.

Abstract: With respect to a routing and a gateway (protocol conversion) in a network system, frame data can simply be generated even if a source node does not understand format specifications of all protocols, communication efficiency degradation caused by an enlargement of header information can be prevented as much as possible, and dealing with a new protocol can be simplified. A source node (data transmission device) transmits “common routing information”, which includes route information identifying all the nodes through which a message frame is routed from an own node to a destination node, while adding the common routing information on the message frame. Each relay node (data relay device) sequentially transfers the message frame while referring to the common routing information to perform identification of a destination, generation of a header, and update of the common routing information.
