To provide a diagnostic service system and diagnostic method using a network. A factory monitoring system () comprises a factory monitoring system () which includes: a data acquisition unit () that acquires data related to at least one machine, including time information; and a stored data management unit () that stores data related to each machine acquired by the data acquisition unit in a storage unit () together with identification information of each machine, wherein, based on past history data related to the machine and current data related to the machine, the diagnostic service system () predicts a possibility of abnormality occurrence in the machine, and provides preventative maintenance information related to the machine.

Diagnostic service system and diagnostic method using network

A failure location specifying device, a failure location specifying method, and a failure location specifying program capable of specifying locations of various failures occurring in a mechanism unit of a machine efficiently are provided. A failure location specifying device includes: a failure history database that stores a specific frequency band occurring resulting from a failure of a machine in correlation with at least an event code indicating a location of the failure; an input unit that receives data related to vibration during operation of the machine as an input; and an output unit that matches the specific frequency band to a frequency included in the data related to vibration to specify the location of the failure and outputs the event code.

Failure location specifying device, failure location specifying method, and failure location specifying program

A remote management server serving as a remote management device is communicably connected to, via a converter, at least one controller serving as a machine tool which allows only direct connection to another device via a predetermined connector, thus exchanging data with a fixed input/output destination and which does not have a setting function of setting a data output destination and a data input destination. The controller is further communicably connected to a mobile terminal via a network. The remote management server includes an input/output control unit configured to control settings relating to data output and data input in the controller and a setting screen providing unit configured to provide the mobile terminal with a setting screen allowing input of setting information relating to the data output and the data input.

Remote management device and remote management method

A controller and a display device are connected to each other by a network. The controller comprises a network control program which controls a network control section to communicate with the display device for each of a plurality of operation modes, including an initialization mode, a normal action mode, and an alarm mode. Various data, such as operation mode information for the controller, are transmitted to the display device connected by the network through the network control section and display data is displayed on the display device.
