A configuration for realizing time synchronization between different protocols is provided. There is provided a control device that constitutes a control system for controlling machines or facilities. The control device includes first communication means configured to transmit and receive data in accordance with a first protocol. The first communication means includes a first timer that defines a time of data transmission and is time-synchronized with an entity to and from which data is transmitted and received. The control device includes second communication means configured to transmit and receive data in accordance with a second protocol different from the first protocol. The second communication means includes a second timer that defines a time of data transmission and is time-synchronized with an entity to and from which data is transmitted and received. The control device includes synchronization means configured to time-synchronize the first timer and the second timer.

Control device and communication device

A control system includes a programmable controller having a CPU unit that carries out cyclic operations of processes. An additional temporary user memory is provided in addition to a regular user memory. When an on-line editing of a user program is to be carried out, the program is stored in both memories and the program stored in the temporary memory is called by an instruction execution engine to be executed. After the on-line editing is completed on the user program stored in the user memory, the program execution is based on the edited user program stored in the user memory.

Methods of conducting Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) involving using a TLC plate having sample spots and including no support material, placing the TLC plate on a porous substrate, and allowing solvent to move upwardly from the porous substrate toward the TLC plate by capillary action to be vaporized from the surface of the TLC plate, thereby concentrating the sample spots developed in the thin layer on the surface of the TLC plate.

An analyzer of partial molecular structure analyzes a specimen material within an absorption spectrum. In addition to the wavenumber of peaks of an infrared absorption spectrum of a specimen, an analyzer analyzes molecules within partial structures using the strength of the peaks of the absorption spectrum so as to improve analysis accuracy.
