Various methods have been proposed for conventional network system failure monitoring methods, ranging from a basic function of outputting a message when a failure occurs such as a retry over, to a function of searching for the failure location. As described in , there is a method of dividing the network in half to determine the faulty side, and then repeating the process of further dividing the faulty side into halves to discover the fault location.

FIG. 3 shows the operating process of the present invention. When transmitting data from a certain slave station DA to the supervisory control station 2, the slave station first transmits data to the node Ni to which the slave station DJ is connected. If a retry occurs due to some kind of failure at this time, the number of retries is counted in the slave station DJ, and if the transmission is successful, the DaNi retry count H5 and the Dj Ni failure code are set in the header of the transmission message. and transmits data to node Ni.

Hereinafter, similar monitoring is performed between the node N1 and the supervisory control station, and the supervisory control station side checks the header part of the received data, and when H5 to HIO are other than O, the number of retries is accumulated for each monitoring location. Collect failure data from the past to the present. In addition, by sorting this collected data in descending order of the total number of retries and outputting it to the monitoring CRT 3 or printer 4, it is possible to focus on lines with a high frequency of failure.
