Abstract

A controller controls a time stamp providing unit to provide a periodic transfer packet with a time stamp showing the synchronous timing of periodic control designated by the control period timer using the global time indicated by a global timer. Devices are corrected to synchronize operation period timers with the periodic control, by using the time difference between the synchronous timing time of periodic control indicated by the time stamp of the transmitted periodic transfer packet and the global time indicated by global timers, at periodic operation timing of the operation period timers.
