A monitoring and control system includes a monitoring and control apparatus that transmits an instruction signal for instructing to control a target device to transmission destinations on a first and a second network by a transmission method that designates a plurality of transmission destinations and does not require responses from the transmission destinations, a controller that controls the target device according to the instruction signal and transmits process data indicating a process of the control to transmission destinations on the first and second networks by the transmission method, a transmitter that transmits the instruction signal and the process data to transmission destinations on the second network, a receiver that receives and transfers the instruction signal and the process data addressed to the transmission destinations on the second network and transmitted from the transmitter, and a monitor that receives the instruction signal and the process data.

Monitoring and control system and monitoring and control method

In one embodiment, a remote monitoring system includes a monitoring apparatus displaying a screen for monitoring a power plant, a remote monitoring apparatus displaying the screen transferred from the monitoring apparatus, and a management server managing information regarding the remote monitoring apparatus. The management server includes an activation management module to acquire apparatus identification information for identifying the remote monitoring apparatus, and to return activation permission to the remote monitoring apparatus if the apparatus identification information matches apparatus identification information registered previously. The remote monitoring apparatus includes a secret information storing region to store the apparatus identification information, and to limit software accessible to the secret information storing region to BIOS software of the remote monitoring apparatus, and an activation module to acquire the activation permission from the activation management module by providing the apparatus identification information in the secret information storing region to the activation management module.
