Abstract
Each of a plurality of monitoring units, when identification information is not set for it, transmits, to a subsequent monitoring unit or a control unit, a fixed unset signal that indicates that identification information has not been set for it, regardless of signal transmitted from the previous monitoring unit or the control unit, and the control unit, upon receiving the unset signal transmitted from a last monitoring unit, shifts to an identification information setting process.
