Abstract
A first communication network () communicably connects each battery module (). A second communication network () is configured in a linear topology. Each battery module () can communicate with another battery module () adjacent on the second communication network (). An identifier information transmission unit () transmits identifier information to all of the other battery modules () through the first communication network (). An identifier information reception unit () receives the identifier information through the first communication network (). A first notification execution unit () performs first notification through the second communication network (). A first notification detection unit () detects the first notification through the second communication network (). A determination unit () determines whether or not a first identifier of the battery module () is a duplicate of the first identifier of the other battery module ().
