Abstract
An industrial device that collects data on other industrial devices can also collect state information on a wireless network. A first industrial device collects data such as an operation history from a second industrial device via a wireless network constructed by a root node and a peripheral wireless node. The root node collects state information related to its own wireless communication and state information related to the wireless communication measured in the peripheral wireless node. The root node has a memory accessible from the first industrial device, and stores these pieces of state information in the memory. As a result, the first industrial device can collect state information on the wireless network from the memory of the root node while collecting data from the second industrial device.
