Abstract
In the present invention a control device and a safety device establish a connection in accordance with a result of a comparison of connection setting information stored in the control device and setting identification information stored in the safety device. A support device is provided with a processor for executing a support program for assisting in setting the control device. A support program includes a first command for acquiring the setting identification information from the safety device and a second command for setting, in the connection setting information corresponding to the safety device, the setting identification information acquired in response to execution of the first command. Thus, the required identification information can easily be set even when a plurality of safety devices are connected to the same network.
